The Lough Café in Cork

24/03/2025: Good food, good location, great service, what more could you want? This café/restaurant is located in the courtyard of a former monastery, accessible via some rather steep stairs. But climbing them is worth it, because Good Day Deli is a true gem. The small and modern hut offers indoor and outdoor seating, and as it was a sunny day, sitting outside in the sun was the best possible option. The brunch menu is rather small, but I'd say you'll definitely find something here. I opted for the pancakes that come with a hibiscus poached pear and coconut mascarpone. Not a big coconut fan but in combination and moderation it was good, and the pancakes were great. Wasn't too impressed with the price of their coffee, though. I was recommended to try this place by locals and it was the very first thing I did after arriving in Cork. Go and try their brunch, it's really an experience!

23/03/2025: Good Day Deli is a great spot for a tasty brunch! I had the Turkish eggs with an extra side of halloumi, and the food was absolutely delicious—well-seasoned and perfectly cooked. The only downside was having to sit indoors due to the windy weather, and the acoustics inside made conversation a bit of a challenge since you had to raise your voice to be heard. Still, the food was worth it, and I’d definitely go back!
