Rearden’s is one of Cork’s biggest and busiest late night venues, on Washington Street in the city centre. It has been trading since 1835 and today it is a bar, a live music venue, a sports bar and a nightclub all under one roof.
It is open seven nights a week with a DJ until late, live bands at the weekend and big screens for the matches, so it suits almost any kind of night out.
