23/09/2026: I regularly get takeaway here, and Coriander never disappoints! The food is consistently excellent. What really sets them apart, though, is the staff—they are always so upbeat, have time for a chat, and genuinely make you feel important and valued as a customer. Highly recommended

02/09/2026: Great food going here for years great stuff aswell 👍 breakfast lunch dinner all good

27/07/2026: "The System is We like Over Price"!!! Bad value for money! Stealing from customers by over pricing and over charging customer's! Be careful what you order here! Their "System" is to over Charge you when you order a Irish Breakfast. I ordered a Irish Breakfast and asked what was in it before paying. My friend I was with ordered a Irish Breakfast and pointed out to me that the only thing different was a tomato that I got and he didn't. Then checking the receipt I realized I was over charged for a Full Breakfast which I didn't ask for anything extra or ask for any Full Breakfast just a Irish Breakfast and was over charged! I didn't say anything at the time of paying because I just thought it was inflation getting out of hand every day thing's is going up. But to my surprise this Cafe is Boosting Prices for what you order! When I complained the manager slipped up and admitted that their "System is to Over Price" is when You order a Irish Breakfast that they Charge You for a Full Irish Breakfast. Be careful!!! Ripoff Ireland is Back!

17/10/2026: Delicious piping hot food fast.

17/10/2026: I am extremely disappointed with the service I received at KFC. I placed my order through the drive thru, and my order was packed completely incorrectly. When I pointed out that an item was missing, the staff member, Vaibhav, responded with an aggressive attitude, repeatedly argued back, and even yelled at me instead of addressing the issue professionally. When I asked to speak to the manager, he repeatedly claimed that he was the manager, despite my concerns, and when I asked him to show me his name badge, the situation remained unresolved. When I asked how I could make a formal complaint, he dismissively told me that he was the manager and that I could complain if I wanted to. As a paying customer, I expect to be treated with basic respect, courtesy, and professionalism, regardless of the situation. No customer should have to deal with such rude, hostile, and disrespectful behaviour simply for pointing out an error with their order. The way I was spoken to was completely unacceptable, and I am shocked that this is how customers are treated. This experience has seriously damaged my opinion of KFC, and I will not be recommending KFC to anyone unless this matter is taken seriously and addressed appropriately.

28/09/2026: Consistently mediocre, combined with poor customer service. Not recommended.

26/08/2026: We had a very good meal here. I can definitely recommend the Yaki Udon! The waiter was also very friendly and attentive (he even took our personal preferences into account).

20/09/2026: Food was nice, I got the feather blade risotto, tastey but they were light handed on the truffle, the dish could do with a bit of refinement. Service on the other hand wasn’t great, struggled to get us in even tho the restaurant wasn’t even half full. There was a group of waitresses chatting sharing a can of monster on the dining room floor. One waitress attempted to take one of my friends plates three times, when he was clearly still eating. Tastey food but overall experience was only ok.

19/09/2026: Tasty but the portions were very small ? I mean for 20 euros I could of eaten a bit more pasta which is quite cheap to make 🙄

28/05/2026: The nicest place you can go, practically in the center of Cork. Good coffee, delicious fruitcake, excellent music, unbeatable service, and a covered terrace where you can smoke. The owner is a great guy. Ideal for a relaxing break.

19/02/2026: Got a ham and cheese toastie which was delicious. The food and coffee is cheap but lovely. The owner is a gentleman, can’t recommend this place enough.

07/10/2026: That was one tasty burger not had one like that since mum used to give us homemade burgers as a kid. The young man serving us was superb keep going your smashing it. Will be back next time I am in Cork.

25/09/2026: Excellent food. Burger was juicy, and I appreciated the fact that they asked how I'd like it cooked. Plenty of toppings, good portion of fries. It all had a very "homemade" feeling. Also, staff was friendly and nice. The only thing I would improve is maybe installing a better air extraction system inside, as I left the place smelling like burger :)

10/07/2026: A lovely cafe with great coffee and cakes. Friendly service. New owners are doing a great job. Will be back

18/06/2026: Really lovely staff and the best truffles you can buy. I love to call here when I'm in the city.

08/10/2026: Absolutely fantastic spiced beef sandwich..

30/09/2026: Amazing selection, friendly staff

12/09/2026: Staff more interested in talking to each other than seating customers. Food is mediocre

31/08/2026: Nice restaurant with a good atmosphere. Unfortunately, I didn't really like the vegan burger, but that's a matter of personal taste. The chicken, however, was very good.
