Breakfast

‘One should not attend even the end of the world without a good breakfast’ – A philosophy by Robert A. Heinlein we like to live by at The Metrople Hotel Cork.

We are honoured to be awarded Great Irish Breakfast by the Irish Hotel Awards in 2020.

Breakfast is served daily from:

  • 7am – 10.30am on weekdays.
  • 7.30am – 10.30am on Sat & Sun.

Please note pre-booking is advised to ensure your preferred time.

Attend breakfast in our warm and inviting Riverview Restaurant, which overlooks the River Lee. Experience impeccable service each morning. Be greeted by our team and enjoy a delicious selection of fruits, pastries and more delivered to your table by your waiter. We also offer a full hot breakfast menu which includes morning classics and specialty eggs, prepared to order by our expert culinary team as well as the traditional ‘Full Irish’. Should you wish to order breakfast via room service, please contact reception the night before and they would be happy to take your order.
