It cost €10m, has everything you want and is Cork’s biggest, bar none

CORK’S biggest bar opened last night creating 90 jobs and signalling the start of the rejuvenation of the city’s Grand Parade.

SoHo is a €10 million 16,000 sq ft multi-floor bar and restaurant on the site of the old Doyle’s Bar.

The glass-fronted building was designed by award-winning architect Frank O’Mahony of Wilson Architects and is co-owned by three Corkmen, Derry O’Regan of the East Village in Douglas, former Cork GAA Allstar Sean McCarthy, and Boston-based pub owner Jon Cronin.
