The best restaurants

30/11/2025: Not very open to public For is a 3/10 because it all looks and tastes like store bought from centra Very little choice No real community vibe like the rest of the coffee shops in Bandon No effort put in at all Very sad it could be a great coffee stop for everyone Will not be coming back

18/08/2025: Saturday afternoon 17.15hours we were told by a young lady hiding down at the back of the cafe on her phone that they were closed!!! Having just checked the operating hours it quite clearly states closing at 6pm

28/05/2025: Staff were really friendly, service was quick and food good but restaurant had tired decor and I wouldn't recomend eating in.

24/04/2025: I ordered two Szechuan chicken tonight.When I took it home it tasted absolutely nothing like Szechuan chicken.Just pre cooked chicken in a type of sauce with veg and no flavour of any kind.I have just moved to Midleton and love Chinese food but I won’t be back.

24/01/2026: We have stopped down south for the night and delighted that we stopped here. The staff were very friendly and had lovely smiles on their face making us feel very welcome. The restaurant was extremely clean and the bathrooms smelled amazing! Our food was also delicious. Thank you!

29/09/2025: One of the best meals I've had will be calling back soon nice friendly staff 😋

24/05/2025: The food taste like shite I got overcharged from this spotty fat little cunt with a bowl cut who was Irish I payed €20 for food that was only €13 gave me back 50c then made me pay for my food again absolute disgrace at least the Chinese woman would know what I was saying if there is a fat spotty prick with a bowl cut ask for someone else because he’s useless might aswell speak Latin to him he’d probably understand it better

14/01/2025: Went in for a take away with the brother-in-law fine food, we got 4 different types of takeout and no complaints from anyone

22/11/2024: Excellent sandwich bar. Easy to locate.

26/08/2024: Very nice and synchronised staff. Took my order with a smile. Place was very busy at lunchtime although no waiting time. Enjoyed a lot. Thank you!

26/05/2025: Arranged a Sunday lunch visit for four family members including a 90 year old who ordered the lamb which was "extra". Two of us had Turkey and Ham and one had a burger. The lamb was tough and clearly wasn't fresh but the worst was a side of cabbage which was so obviously off and had been masked with some kind of cream and peas added in. I told the waiter who said he would "let the kitchen know". Sid anyone speak to us about it? No. Did we get a reduction in bill? No. Will we be back? No.

28/06/2025: Just had the worse food ever here this evening, first placed order the girl asked did I want everything on regular burger ,as I replied yes ,the order was regular burger meal, 1/2 pounder ,taco fries ,breast of chicken 2 drinks. We waited 30 minutes with everone that came in after gone with food etc .regular burger came with ketchup is that everything on burger and all the food was cold .3 young people working there then man came in with bald head i think owner no manner by anyone in there he could see our order was 30min because I had to call the young boy and ask was it nearly ready we were waiting 30 min so he went in and said it ,not impressed by service as I managed a fast food restaurant for 20 years myself in kerry I am fuming, they need to change things for a tourist resort.

02/02/2025: Fish and chips and potatoes in cheese and garlic are so good

15/05/2025: Came over from England and was told this was the best chinese in the area, me and My partner really enjoy a Chinese so was really looking forward to this. We got the beef in black bean sauce, spring rolls, chips, chilli garlic prawn with veg and wontons. Unfortunately it was not up to par, the beef was way to strong and the other bits just didn't have enough flavour very average takeaway. Considering we payed €28 we weren't impressed!

15/05/2025: We got a take away before during the week that was delicious but this last one was on a busy saturday night and fell short of nice the duck with the pancakes were over cooked and hard to chew , disappointing.

18/07/2025: Family of 4 adults . 2 had fish and chips both really disappointed. We have been several times for food and always good. Spoke to the waiter who said he would tell the chef. Really disappointed

20/06/2025: Good afternoon, Last Saturday we made our first visit to this restaurant since 2017, prior to which we had hosted many of our family’s special occasions and often stayed overnight. Every one of those occasions was impeccable and we have many happy memories of birthdays and anniversaries celebrated there.....and sad memories too of after funeral refreshments for both my wife's parents. I brought my daughter for what was intended to be a special outing for her as she seldom goes out anywhere due to serious health issues. We had chicken wings which were excellent but after that everything went downhill rapidly. My daughter chose a pasta dish but she could only eat half as it was at best mediocre. I chose roast beef and stated categorically that I did not want gravy poured over my meal and I asked could the gravy be served in a small bowl on the side. The young girl was very pleasant and helpful; she understood my request and said yes, that’s fine, absolutely no problem. We didn’t see her again after that. When another person brought the meal to the table it was absolutely swimming in gravy. I said I had requested the meal to be served without gravy, with the gravy to be served on the side. He took it away and changed it. It really appeared that I was served the dregs remaining from lunchtime and although it was towards late afternoon, that is not an excuse for me receiving stale carrots and mashed potatoes that had very obviously been kept warm in a Bain-Marie for a number of hours. The cabbage apparently had all gone so I got none. The beef was not remotely succulent and was as tough as leather but I persevered in struggling through it until a fly (there were many flies in the area where we’d been seated) came and sat on the beef. At that point I gave up and went to get some tissues to wrap the beef up to bring home to our cat. I was totally put off. As a result we decided to skip dessert. One would have expected the restaurant to have take steps in the warm weather to deal with the problem of flies in a dining area. The only part of the main course that I was able to enjoy was the roast potatoes which I have to say were excellent but overall the experience was a very disappointing one. What made it even more disappointing was the fact that at no stage during the meal did anyone come over, as is usual practice, to ask if everything is ok. And when I was paying, I wasn't asked then either. Had I been asked I would have outlined all these difficulties. Sent from Outlook for iOS
