The best restaurants in Cork city council

05/12/2025: The food is amazing, but I am giving three stars because one of the waitresses is rude every time. The skinny , long hair with a pair of glasses. The other staffs are lovely.

18/11/2025: Nice service and really tasty food with a good price. It's one of the best japanese restaurants in this city

31/03/2026: We went for food late, great service and staff. Special thanks to Pepe, who served us and make us feel very welcomed, we will definitely come back.

27/03/2026: Thank you for your warm welcome to Nosta Restaurant! If you’re looking for an authentic Mediterranean restaurant in Cork City, look no further than Nosta Restaurant Cork City. They offer a wide range of traditional Turkish specialities, from the best Kebabs in Cork and delicious Meze platers to Pizzas and Niko's signature dishes. We ordered the Mix Doner, which includes lamb and chicken doner, bread, sauce, salad, and a choice of chips or rice. You can add Tzatziki for €3. I opted for the lasagne as a side. The staff was very professional and ready to help us. They even offered us two glasses of wine. It was a great moment! Thank you!

25/02/2026: Been away for a few months. Popped into the elm tree for Sunday lunch. Just as good as all ways, still good value, food still great except the roast potatoes, just too crispy.

18/02/2026: Beautiful surroundings, delicious cocktails and a very nice barmen with a beard who makes cocktails.

24/03/2026: A HEARTY breakfast joint, you won't leave with any room left in your tummy. We had the Brekkie Bap and Divorced Eggs and recommend both, though the Divorced Eggs took the cake for most original and delicious. A bright and lively spot for breakfast or lunch, we'd happily return.

22/03/2026: Very LOUD upstairs, difficult to hear

12/03/2026: Wow! Incredible. Best nachos I’ve ever had- they do not skimp out on the toppings or cheese. I got the kimchi chicken sandwich and also incredible! 10/10 for everything!

02/03/2026: Fun place to grab an awesome burger. Cheese fries with bacon is incredible!

20/01/2026: Had evening meal on a Tuesday evening. Brilliant food, quick service and reasonable. Had starter between 3, 3 mains, 2 deserts and 3 coffees and all came to just shy of €100. Would definitely come back.

05/01/2026: Steak alfredo was excellent, cost to quality ratio is still on par, 17.50 for the dish but in fairness I felt it was worth it. Alot of places you feel you didn't get value but I can't say that here

14/10/2025: Old Rustic bar in South Main Street, the City Center of Cork. Across from the old Beamish and Crawford Brewary, there's a lot of history in the area. There's a younger crowd frequenting it now, and they have some seating outside. The staff are nice as is the atmosphere.

07/10/2025: Nice pub. Good music. Not the best beer selection. Used to have real candles on each table with wax spilling over the bottle they were in, now changed for fake candles. It's a pity, it was part of what made it a cosy pub.

11/03/2026: Great Italian restaurant with delicious food. Friendly and helpful staff. Reasonable prices. I recommend it.

09/03/2026: 5* food and service. I had the Carbonara and the kids had goujons and chips. It was beautiful and as I was rushing for the airport, they facilitated me super fast, I calculated 6 minutes from ordering to table!! Delicious and fresh, will definitely return.

10/11/2025: I created a video of our visit to Nano Nagle Convent. To see a complete review of our visit to this tourist attraction search on YouTube for "@travellingtourist Nano Nagle Convent”

07/11/2025: Fascinating visit, we now know the difference between a class 1, 2 and 3 relic! Thanks Tatiana for bringing it to life for us.

18/03/2026: Brilliant pub in Cork. No frills but an amazing welcome

18/03/2026: Great pub, amazing Guinness and lovely staff

14/03/2026: Amazing food with great ambience. Staff are lovely. 🥰

25/02/2026: Wonderful fresh fish and the chips were nice and crunchy. Service was very pleasant and welcoming. Lovely atmosphere and a good pint of Murphys and I'm normally a Beamish man

16/03/2026: Best chipper in Ireland. Best fish supper in Ireland.

12/03/2026: The best fish and chips in Cork. And the service... unbeatable. Quick, friendly... Everything spotless... It's worth the queue.

01/01/2026: It’s great food here, there chicken balls are the best in cork hands down

26/12/2025: I placed an order on Deliveroo and they left me waiting for over two hours without delivering, without giving any explanation.

04/01/2026: Lovely place for brunch with a unique menu. One of our party was a bit disappointed they couldn't get scrambled eggs with their breakfast, but they enjoyed their poached eggs all the same.

01/01/2026: Brunch here was stellar. The pancetta hash was savory and addictive while the ricotta pancakes were some of the best pancakes I've ever had! Great smoothies as well! Love that you can sit outside too. This is the place to go in Cork for breakfast!

08/03/2026: It's been too long to be reminded how outstanding this restaurant is. Fine dining without the BS. I try hard to not be the guy who photographs the food, but how could I not show off the attached creations. They are works of art. 👏👏👏 to the unseen (but hugely appreciated)kitchen staff. A nice friendly welcome by maitre d'. Extremely comfortable tables and a spectacular menu including a "proper" vegan menu. Staff are very nice, apart from one cold member - they've been there a while and is a tad serious, a bit intimidating. If they lightened up, everyone would feel better. Such a fantastic treat.

06/03/2026: Terrible food, considering the price, it's a joke
