The Farmgate Cafe in Cork

Found everything to be as good as ever, especially the food. Service was excellent too as the staff dealt with everything that was thrown at them - my friends are odd - with aplomb. Unavoidable Christmas hustle and bustle; the 'inner' section is quieter and warmer if you manage to get in there.

Very popular, very good. Friendly staff. Great views of the English Market.

When the French couple at the table next to you are remarking how good the food is and yours is delicious as well that's enough.

Pate was great with the red onion, recommended if you love pate!

I’ve dined here a few times and while they offer gluten free options, they are not safe for coeliacs. The bread is gluten free but baked in a “normal” bakery, meaning cross contamination makes it not safe for coeliacs. I tried again recently and had the chicken and lemon sauce. It was nice, though the sauce was cold, and while staff(Vicky) went to great lengths to make sure it was safe for me to eat, I still was sick. I’m afraid I couldn’t eat here again, as even though Vicky was fantastic and went to lengths to make sure my food was gluten free, there is obviously levels of cross contamination in the kitchen that means its not safe for coeliacs.

Seafood Chowder was excellent.....thank you.

Toasted ham & cheese sandwich was heavenly 🙏🏻 seafood chowder was yummy. Everything very good very nice 😊

Went here for breakfast. Ordered food and 2 drinks. Drinks came but no food. Other people who came in after us recieved their food. Asked server and he said mix up in kitchen with our order so he knocked the drinks price off bill. Food was nice Atmosphere was good Would visit again

Farmgate is a restaurant located on the first floor of the English market, the main one in Cork, the second largest city in Ireland. We visited the market and we decided to go to have breakfast in this restaurant, where we enjoyed a traditional Irish breakfast with fried eggs, bacon, sausages, black pudding and toast. Also, I drank a cappuccino. From the terrace of the restaurant, you can see very nice views of the market. (See also The English Market)

Located on a mezzanine floor in the English Market with a good view looking down on the shoppers bustling around. I had a cooked breakfast with the full panoply - nicely put together and not at all greasy. The coffee was great. The service was speedy but very friendly.
