Tradehouse Central in Cork

Good location on the main street. Sat outside, a little loud with music playing as it was a little difficult at time to hear my friend speak, other than that staff were very friendly and professinal.

Food is good, but there is one waiter who is absolutely miserable, curt and rude “the big bald middle age one” ! Don’t enjoy having to deal with him, he hates his job soooo much it would make you uncomfortable! There were multiple other tables who had a problem with him too! There is no sorting this guy out with a “conversation”. He obviously has loads of complaints, The manager needs to wake up and put him out the back!

Ordered the tacos for starter, and ordered the Taggettellie for main, after finishing the starter, only 30 seconds past before my main was on the table, unfortunately I can't eat that fast, I taught normal practice was to not start cooking the main until after we the customer had at least finished eating our starter, I couldn't eat, Part 2, I had tasted the Taggettellie before asking for it to be wrapped up in a doggie bag / Takeaway Container, only to realize later that night, that someone had added a spoon or 3 of Garlic Puree to the meal, Hey Mr Manager, You need to Watch your Staff, This is Not A Game, it's an Absolute Shame

Breakfast was lovely. Service excellent.

What can I say. I got the braised beef on the menu, and it was probably the best food and grub I have ever eaten in my 34 years of life. It's was unreal. Kids got pizza and chips. Fantastic portion. I always get the tacos. They are unreal burgers and pizza are just Devine. Trade house is absolutely phenomenal food.

Friendly and helpful staff, great food.

Nice bar serving food, big bar, nice outdoor seating space st front of venue.

Needs more Staff, staff communication and an option for tipping made visible. Great stop off, if going or coming from west Cork. Visited here after a long week, the wait time for a seat was not long at the entrance to be seated. It is a very large restaurant, busy but expected. I was wearing heavy clothing lots of layers. I was guided to a very small table with stools, with no support barley fit there, but the tables were for two people. Not to be in the way to the other guests at the table next to me, almost Jammed up next to me I decide to move to a four seat table. The tables are not numbered, a bit confusing for the staff working the tables. Asked if it was ok when we seated next to another table, because as soon as we did, we were approached, told that it was not a problem. So with the limited staff on, on a busy weekend there was a bit of breakdown in communication, between the floor staff. Even though we got the approval to use the table. Then we were approached and told the tables were reserved. We were directed back to our original seats and told the table we went to was booked. Yet nothing to show that they were, reserved or prebooked. Did not ask for the Manager. Explained that the seating that was first assigned was not appropriate. Another part of the restaurant a very large seating area unused, and convenient and comfortable was unused. The staff member directed us to this area with a large table, that was both convenient and would fit the food when eventually approached for our order. Clothing jackets were taking off and layed on the floor and on the other unused chairs with cushions. There was no where to place or place them, a simple hat and cloak stand, designated would have done, or a member of staff to take the jacket to a holding area. Almost 25 mins later still no one approached about the order. Decided to see if there was a reason. The waiter then approached. Took the order felt as uncomfortable as we did when we had to change tables. As for the price, you can see, in the photos. After all the confusion and the long wait. The food presented and served was top class. There was a good choice to select from the menu, but time was precious. So went with the quickest options. Chicken wings were the size of chicken thighs, ohh so tasty, they are served with two dips, cheese dip and bbq, they are so fresh and tasty, no need for the sauces. Beautiful highly recommended, no confusion with bone and chicken on these large portions. The pizza was nice not oily, served warm, the crust was a little tuff. So recommend, if you don't like crispy tuff crust, tell the waiter, they will serve it, how you want it. Service from the staff once served, was great, table was well serviced from one of the waiters. Great area off the restaurant, with great views and very relaxing. Drinks and food very nice. Not much options in ballincollig for food, yet this large establishment, would be recommended for a stop off. If there was more of a quicker service and more staff on, the busy days and weekends then it would be best for all. Eventually impressed with staff and service. Like to tip or round off the price, once I know it goes evenly to the less paid members of staff.

Pleasant atmosphere, friendly service, elegant, quiet A very tasty breakfast Huge portion, standard prices I recommend

Loved this place, delicious food, great buzz and helpful staff.
