Located in Shandon, this museum is well worth a look. But you'll find tons more to see in the area. Blarney Castle, Blarney Stone, and University College Cork aren't too far from Butter Museum.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (1,000 reviews)
Wow, reserve a room here-it's the best hotel I've stayed in during my trip in Ireland. Really nice rooms, wonderful restaurant, really close to the Town center super easily walkable. Great views of the city from the elevator lobbies. I think they even have a swimming pool but I didn't use it.
