The views will be worth the wait.

Cork’s newest café will now open on Sunday, a little later than initially planned.

Offering some of the prettiest scenery in the city, the team behind The Lough Café is putting the finishing touches on their new venture, The Lee Cafe, and you can check it out on Sunday, September 10th at Thomas David Bridge (known locally as Wellington Bridge) near the Mardyke.

The café will be serving 3fe Coffee and they are also in talks with local roasteries about roasting their own brand down the line.

As a sweet gesture, opening day will be for charity with all proceeds going to Pieta House.

“In the beginning we will be doing coffee, cakes, and treats as well as toasties and sandwiches; all homemade.

“We just think it’s crazy that Cork hasn’t made the most of its rivers.” owner Ronan Power told Yay Cork.

“We think we will be the only riverfront café within the city environs. It will definitely be an outdoorsy place and once people come in and sit outside in our riverside decking area they will see why,” he added.
