The Woodford in Cork

Hostess Margot is just super, she looks amazing, and with Irish beer she's like a princess in a fairy tale.

Always when I am in cork I visit this wonderful pub. Very kind staff, amazing beers (one of the best Guiness in cork) and very homely environment.

Myself and my mother both got a lamb shank. The service was fantastic. The meat was tender and falling off the bone which was absolutly delicious. Have had many lamb shanks but none to this standard. I would highly recommend the Woodford.

The Woodford is a typical Irish pub with a warm atmosphere and unpretentiously friendly staff. The food is decent and fairly priced. Recommended.

Absolutely gorgeous cocktails! Found this place almost by mistake (keep wandering and find the best spots!)

A very typical Cork gastropub. The guys who work there are great. The fish and chips are very good (except for the peas). For dessert, the delicious crumble and Oh, Nanny are highly recommended. Very clean.

We had an amazing lunch today. Food was one of the best we have experienced for long time in Cork. He had chicken burger, he was very impressed and as a chef he said without a doubt 9 out of 10 !!! I had goat cheese salad and gosh it kept me full for the rest of the day, ingredients were fresh, high quality, 9 out of 10!!! Desserts OMG, the crème brülèe and cheesecake, so delicious 😋 And extra points for presentation, touch of art!!! Staff were friendly and welcoming and place looks really outstanding, pure Irish pub vibe ❤️ We sure return 🤟

Really nice place. You get a seat right away. Service is good and fast. They also bring your food out fast. But there are 2 things holding them back from a better rating from me. The first is the notes for customers. At first is seems nice. It's like a "be nice or we won't serve you" which I can respect. I've run my own business and I know how abusive customers can be, and I can't even imagine how that would be in a bar. But the number of notes, absolutely everywhere. On several walls. Over the bar. Little ones tucked into the menu. I can't look anywhere in there without seeing them. After the first one or two, it changed from being nice to kind of harassing. I'm just trying to enjoy my meal. Why am I getting all these signs in my face everywhere? And still I could have gotten over it but for the food experience I had. Fish and chips. I ordered fish and chips. Maybe it's a cliche, but I grew up in a fishing town and I really love me some fish and chips. ive had a few hit and miss fish and chips around town. But this truly was the worst plate of fish and chips I have had in my life. The grease was disgusting. Pressing a finger on the batter made grease flow out in a waterfall. And the chips were worse. They were pale and undercooked. I don't think I've ever experienced that. The chips I couldn't eat at all. But I managed to eat the fish. I was not in a state for fighting with the kitchen to get a better meal because I was having some low blood sugar and came in with a serious need for some food immediately. I don't like to send food back, but if my brain hadn't been numb from a low blood sugar, I would have done it, and it would have been a first for me at anything other than a fast food place. I've eaten food here before and it was great. I don't know what happened this day or if their fish and chips is always like this. But I'm not spending that many euros to give them a second chance. That's for sure.

Very good dinner, no room available when we arrived, the owner found a solution with humor and kindness.

the pints are off the food is hit or miss (burger=good, fishNchips=bad) the service is great we wont be back can recommend if you need a *quick* stop on your way to something else, they will greet you and serve you quickly to be honest they should spend more time on their food prep and clean their taps, beer should not taste like that sorry to leave only 3 stars the staff deserves better but the rest is lacking
