MARKET LANE SERVES UP A CULINARY TREAT TO CELEBRATE MOTHER’S DAY & ST PATRICK’S DAY

MARKET LANE SERVES UP A CULINARY TREAT

 TO CELEBRATE MOTHER’S DAY & ST PATRICK’S DAY

Bacon & Cabbage


There has never been a more important time to celebrate our loved ones and to say thanks for being there.  With this in mind, and two very important dates coming up in March, Cork’s beloved Market Lane Restaurant on Oliver Plunket Street has created a very affordable and simple to use ‘heat at home’ food box menu for Mother’s Day on the 14th March and St Patrick’s Day on the 17th.   So, while you may not be able to go out for dinner, you can still treat loved-ones to a culinary feast at home without having to break the bank.


Choose from ‘Ballinwillin Venison Pie with Wisdom Ale’, ‘Slow cooked Rosscarbery Bacon and Mustard Glaze’ (picture attached) or Spiced Veggie Moussaka with Toonsbridge Feta. Puddings include an Orange and Vanilla Bread & Butter Pudding with Custard and Chocolate Cheesecake with Hazelnut Praline’. A 2-course meal, including a range of sides, is €25 per person and there is a children’s menu for €9.50. Elbow Lane beers, signature cocktails and wine can be added to the order and diners will also get a gift of a trendy ‘Always Cork’ tote designed by the restaurant group. Orders can be placed via marketlane.ie for collection at the restaurant.

The Market Lane group of restaurants includes ORSO, Elbow Lane Smokehouse & Brewery, Castle Restaurant Blackrock, Goldie and Market Lane.
