Celebrate spring in style with live piano and Easter Lunch at The Montenotte

By Yay Cork March 19, 2026March 2, 2026

Brought to you by The Montenotte Hotel.

These brighter days deserve some celebrating.

And if you’re looking to make Easter Sunday feel a little extra special this year, The Montenotte is the kind of place that turns lunch into an occasion.

Perched high above the city with those iconic panoramic views over Cork, The Montenotte’s Panorama Restaurant manages that rare balance of being friendly and welcoming while still feeling properly fancy. The vibe is relaxed — but the table settings, the service and the setting remind you this isn’t just any Sunday roast.

This Easter, guests can sit down to an exceptional three-course lunch (€59 per person), thoughtfully created by Executive Chef Martin Lovell, whose seasonal menus are known for their creativity and flavour.

Add in a live pianist on the day and you’ve got all the ingredients for a celebration that feels effortless, elegant and just that little bit indulgent.

What’s on the menu?

Chef Lovell has created a feast that highlights the best of the seasonal fare on offer right now, served with luxurious local ingredients.

We’ve had a sneak peek at the Easter Lunch menu and diners can expect starters such as Wild Mushroom & Celeriac Soup served with croutons and truffle oil, Montenotte Gin Cured Salmon Tartare with potato rosti, pickled shallot and dill emulsion and mains including a mouthwatering Dry Aged Irish Hereford Roast Sirloin served with all the trimmings or a Slow Roasted Crowe’s Farm Pork Belly with black pudding, rhubarb and crackling.

There’s an elevated Rhubarb & Custard Tart on the dessert menu too – hello vanilla custard and rhubarb sorbet – alongside favourites such as Sticky Toffee Pudding and Chocolate Fondant.

You can kick back with a tea or coffee to finish your meal as you catch up with your nearest and dearest or retreat to the bar or The Glasshouse for a drink or two afterwards.

Make a night of it from just €105

Why not turn your Easter celebration into a proper break? The Montenotte’s Reimagined Easter Retreat includes one night’s accommodation in a Boutique Room plus a delicious breakfast from €105 per person sharing.

You can kick back, refresh and indulge, taking in stunning Cork City views and serene spa time and cosy nights in the adults-only cinema with curated seasonal favourites.

If the weather is good, there are garden strolls, city exploring, and a perfectly relaxing getaway in the heart of Cork to savour.
