Foodies are snapping up seats at this Mexican-inspired dinner in a brewery

By Katie Mythen-Lynch June 10, 2025June 9, 2025

Listen, we can’t rely on the weather to bring the summer vibes.

Happily, there are plenty of exciting events happening indoors this month so even if June is a washout you can still have a fine old time.

The buzz this week has settled on a Mexican-inspired pop-up happening at Blacks Brewing & Distilling in Kinsale.

Well-known West Cork-based chef Caitlin Ruth is setting up down there for three weeks from June 11th to June 28th, serving a ‘four courses and more’ feast from a menu that will change weekly.

Much of the 12-night run is already fully booked but there are still some spots left if you get your act together ASAP.

You can take a table in The Glass Box at Blacks Brewing & Distilling, overlooking the water, and they’ll bring you plate after plate of Mexican inspired food using the ingredients of the Wild Atlantic Way. If a shard of sunshine appears you can soak it up on a deckchair outside.

Throw in a michelada, a zingy little drink made with lime juice, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce, salt and beer, and you’ve got yourself a tasty night out, whether you’re impressing a date or catching up with a friend or two.

The Caitlin Ruth X Blacks Pop-Up Restaurant runs from Wednesday to Saturday and tickets for two-hours of deliciousness are €50 here.

A drinks collab menu will also be available on the night, with vegetarian and no added gluten options also available. After your two-hour slot in the restaurant you can take the party to the bar.
