Former Tung Sing Restaurant, 23 Patrick Street, Cork City Centre – Landmark Restaurant & Hospitality Opportunity

A rare opportunity to acquire one of Cork City Centre’s most recognisable hospitality premises, occupying the entire first and second floors of a landmark building on Patrick Street, formerly home to the renowned Tung Sing Restaurant.

H Property alongside Frank V. Murphy & Co are delighted to bring this exceptional city centre hospitality opportunity to the market. Extending to approximately 2,710 sq ft (251.6 sq m) over two floors with its own independent entrance directly from Patrick Street, the property offers substantial accommodation suitable for restaurant, hospitality, leisure or a variety of alternative commercial uses (subject to planning permission where required).

For many years, the property was occupied by the well-known Tung Sing Restaurant, a name synonymous with Cork’s dining scene and remembered by generations of Cork people as one of the city’s most established Chinese restaurants. The availability of such a prominent hospitality premises in Cork’s principal retail thoroughfare represents an increasingly rare opportunity.

Description

The accommodation is arranged over the first and second floors of this landmark Patrick Street building and benefits from a dedicated pedestrian entrance directly from Patrick Street, providing complete separation from the ground floor retail unit.

The property was most recently fitted out as a fully operational restaurant and comprises an extensive open-plan dining area, bar area, commercial kitchen, cold storage facilities, customer and staff WC accommodation together with ancillary storage areas. The existing layout comfortably accommodates approximately 80 patrons, providing an excellent foundation for a new restaurant, hospitality or leisure operator while also lending itself to refurbishment and reconfiguration for a range of alternative commercial uses (subject to planning permission where required).

The accommodation extends to approximately:

• First Floor – 131 sq m (1,310 sq ft)
• Second Floor – 130 sq m (1,399 sq ft)

providing a combined floor area of approximately 251 sq m (2,709 sq ft).

Location

Patrick Street remains Cork’s premier retail destination and is widely regarded as the commercial heart of Ireland’s second city. Positioned close to the junction of Patrick Street and Winthrop Street, the property occupies a highly visible location surrounded by many of the country’s leading national and international retailers.

Neighbouring occupiers include Brown Thomas, Penneys, Dunnes Stores, Mango, H. Samuel, Austen & Blake together with a broad range of cafés, restaurants, hotels and professional services. The area continues to experience significant investment through the expansion of Penneys, the redevelopment of the former Debenhams building and continued retailer demand, reinforcing Patrick Street as one of the strongest commercial locations outside Dublin.

The city centre benefits from excellent public transport connectivity, substantial daily pedestrian footfall and a vibrant mix of retail, office, tourism and hospitality uses, making it an ideal destination for businesses seeking a flagship Cork location.

Opportunity

Opportunities to secure large restaurant accommodation on Patrick Street are exceptionally limited.

Formerly occupied by the renowned Tung Sing Restaurant, the premises has been serving diners for decades and offers incoming operators the opportunity to revive one of Cork’s most recognisable restaurant locations. The existing configuration, capable of accommodating approximately 80 seated patrons, provides an excellent platform for a contemporary restaurant, cocktail bar, private members’ club or hospitality concept.

Alternatively, the property’s independent entrance, generous floor plates and prime city centre location also make it suitable for a variety of other commercial or leisure uses (subject to planning permission where required).

With its long-established reputation as a hospitality destination and its position in the very heart of Cork City Centre, this represents one of the most exciting restaurant opportunities to come to the market in recent years.
