Last orders for landmark Cork restaurant, Fenn’s Quay

One of Cork’s most popular restaurants, Fenn’s Quay, has closed. The multi-awardwinning restaurant closed its doors yesterday for the final time ending 20 years of food service.

Chef and manager Kate Lawlor said it had been a difficult past few years and said it was sad to bow out after so many years at the helm.

“It’s just a really sad day. It’s been a restaurant for 20 years. I have been working there 15 years and running it for nine years. I plied my trade there and it’s been a big part of my life. It’s a Cork institution. Some great people and staff have come through the door but it’s just time for someone else with energy and passion to take it on,” she said.
