The best restaurants

18/05/2025: Absolutely love Goodmess Grain! The staff is incredibly helpful and efficient — they go above and beyond to resolve any issues quickly and professionally. Communication via email has always been clear and timely, and they’ve consistently delivered on time. And the gluten-free croissants? Simply amazing. Flaky, buttery and full of flavor — honestly the best I’ve had. A big thank you to the team for such high-quality products and excellent service. Highly recommend!

27/09/2025: Lovely bar in Shandon Street with great stout. Cosy areas with a few stools at the bar. Esther is brilliant and really nice to chat with. We met a good few friendly locals in the bar who were great to speak to. We will definitely be back in again.

31/05/2025: Watching the champions league final here, great staff, great regulars, great prices. The best bar I've been to in cork. 5* is not enough praise, thoroughly enjoyed my time here. 🍀

29/07/2023: Got eskimo pizza with ham sausage and chicken the pizza was dry and I swear to god you could break your teeth off the chicken it was so tough and dry

28/07/2023: Really rude manager who barks orders at the employees and is also rude to customers. The food also is not good.

21/08/2025: The restaurant was closed at 10:10 p.m. and the internet says it's open until 11 p.m.

24/04/2025: Not sure how this place still makes sales, Despite the 3.5 stars I thought I'd try Doner and qtr pounder.. anyone who gives 5star works there.. maybe chips are okay, I'll never know for sure...

04/09/2024: From the journey over to Heir on the 2pm ferry - €6 return (no charge for those with a travel pass) to the return journey at 4pm we just had a fab time. The lovely weather was a welcome addition to the experience. There is an inclined 10-15 min walk up from the pier to Island Cottage where we were greeted by Ellmary. The menu is no choice and I mean No choice. There is no wine list, however a very nice French red & white wine are available to diners. We sat at a communal dining table with some lovely people. The food is wonderful: medium-rare steak with a buttery mash on a red pepper jus (I could be wrong on this but it was lovely) followed by the lightest of lemon soufflé, Tea/Coffee with home made biscuits finished up the experience. We never actually caught sight of John the chef, as we left to catch the 4pm ferry - however we could hear the industry & smell the aromas eminating from the kitchen. Well done to you both. I look forward to returning.

28/07/2024: An amazing intimate restaurant experience. No menu choice. It is what it is and that’s that. Starter, mains and desert service with tea or coffee for €25! Wine available by the glass or bottle. We sat at a table of 8 and got to have cross table conversations with two lovely ladies and an actor and his Kazakstan partner. The setting was intimate and we got a sneak peek into the tiny kitchen with the husband cheffing. The steak and mash on a lovely sauce followed by a soufflé that melted in your mouth. The others at the table missed their ferry boat back and so we gave them a jaunt back .. So if you want an experience and to meet some fab people and have some lovely food try and book at table . Booking open 10am Tuesdays !

13/09/2024: Best chicken pakora kebab you will ever have

22/08/2024: If I could have given it zero I would have. Staff miserable, food horrible. Avoid at all costs!! Worst Indian take away we have ever had!!

08/05/2024: This is a takeaway restaurant . Pizza and wraps are nice, along with nice chips . Reasonable prices for what’s on the menu

23/11/2024: Uno de los mejores sandwiches de pollo de la historia. Tenía el sándwich de pollo frito de cajún y era MUCHO mejor de lo que podía haber imaginado. Muy recomendable. Suficiente especia para hacerlo interesante.

04/11/2024: Excelente atendimento, comida muito boa, pratos bem elaborados e ambiente clean descolado, aquecido e que gera muito bem estar
