Boru Coffee Shop in Cork

SUCH lovely staff! Amazing chai and parfait. Reasonably priced as well which is hard to find!

A very charming café. The space was well utilized, and no one would have guessed anyone would set up a café on that corner. The espresso is very good, they have delicious snacks, and it's in a very good, even beautiful, location where thousands of people pass by every day on their way to the trains or the bus stop. I wish you much success and good luck for many years to come.

My previous experience here earned a solid 5 stars for a perfectly made coffee. So I came "hoping" to give a more positive 5 star review. Unfortunately, this visit fell short. I requested a half-full cup for a stronger brew, but received a full cup instead. When I pointed this out, the barista simply poured half out, resulting in a diluted and disappointing drink. He seemed busy so perhaps it was just because of that. I'll give it another try, hoping my first experience wasn't a fluke. Update 7 July 2025: back to a 5 star. The staff were real friendly as I remember them and the coffee was top class. The setting is always interesting if you like people watching.

Right I have been going here for the last 15years and the lads are sound out . One of the boys has lovely soft hands . The toilet is super clean .

Best coffee in Cork, friendliest staff, go here.

We visited this morning. It was such a lovely experience. The guys that run it are gentlemen. The coffee was the best I've had in a long time.Overall a great experience, we will back anytime we come to Cork.

First time in Ireland. Woke up a bit later than expected and needed a quick coffee and on the go breakfast. Staff was awesome and the yogurt granola mix was great. Coffee tasted fresh and made perfectly to order. Wife needed a lemon for a sore throat, but they didn't have one, so they offered a lime instead.

Brill coffee in the Kingdom! Thanks 😄

Delicious black coffee, they had two styles to choose from at the time. Great treats, fabulous owner and staff, going back again today! A must for Cork coffee lovers.
