Starbucks Blackpool in Cork

Great place to work from and have a coffee or tea

Starbucks came to Cork to stay and came at the right time, bringing added value to Cork City. These multinationals are spread all over the world, this is very positive for Cork. Anyone can open a Starbucks, they just have to pay the franchise fee, and then the sky's the limit. Whoever acquires a Starbucks franchise has a great advantage: it has a well-known name, has been in the market for many years, doesn't have to prove anything in terms of quality, and it's almost like having half a house already built.

I had a Moca, and it was splendid.

Lovely staff but never listen properly to an order so always seen to have to correct them or ask for whatever it is I'm waiting for.

I went there for the intention of checking how the atmosphere was, it was good and I could read and relax. There's a variety of seats u can choose from that is why it's 5 stars for the atmosphere. The rest I'm not that impressed but I'm still generous with my star as I have not tasted the whole menu. I still personally think they're overpriced, I only ordered a classic Cappuccino, and it's too milky for me, it's like milk with a taste of coffee. The food looks nice I bet there's a nicer place u can grab those with a fraction of the price. Surely the other drinks and hot drinks are great, but if the Cappuccino is good enough the rest probably isn't as well. Hey, that's just my opinion. Not a fan of Starbucks, sorry. Will I go there again, probably if there aren't any other choices around.
