Poppa Bills Ballypehane in Cork

06/08/2025: Absolutely love this cafe! The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a perfect balance of cozy seating and bright natural light. My cappuccino was smooth, rich, and beautifully presented by Martyna and the banana bread is always fresh and delicious. The baristas here always greet you with a warm smile and you can tell they care about every customer that walks in. It’s rare to find a place with coffee this good and the best staff behind it all!

06/08/2025: Listen, I came here for a quick coffee and a snack. I did not expect to have a spiritual awakening via latte art and a grilled cheese that brought tears to my eyes. First off, the coffee art here isn’t just a pretty leaf—oh no. I got a full-blown swan with wings so detailed it looked like it had career ambitions. My friend got a cat stretching in a sunbeam. I don’t know what kind of wizardry they’re pulling behind that espresso machine, but I half expected the barista to pull out a paintbrush and start taking commissions. And the toasties? Good heavens. I ordered the Ham & Cheese and what arrived was basically a crispy, golden love letter to dairy. Crunchy on the outside, molten cheesy poetry on the inside. I bit into it and forgot all my problems, including but not limited to my student loans, and the existential dread of Mondays.
