The best restaurants in Cork city council

30/09/2026: Everything was perfect.. would recommend this place.. Will be back soon👌

27/09/2026: One of corks hidden gems, service is 10/10 extremely friendly and really informative about the menu, the food here is so good, this is one of my favorite places to go..

04/10/2026: A well-deserved 5 stars for the high-quality pizza - and 6 stars for ditching U**rEats. Local people heard your voice. Well done! 👏🍕

02/10/2026: Food was delicious and service was amazing! Highly recommend!

21/09/2026: The food and coffee was delicious with great vegan options too. All the staff were so friendly and very welcoming and the surrounding gardens and outlook from the cafe was beautiful.

12/09/2026: The food and service was excellent. It was very loud inside is my only issue.

23/09/2026: A very enjoyable evening in Cork at SpitJack restaurant. The menu is short but excellent. Be warned, though: if you're expecting a burger with a beef patty, the meat is more of a stuffed meat. The servers are attentive to allergies, and I was served mashed potatoes (which were delicious) instead of fries. The French wine selection doesn't live up to the quality of the vineyards they offer.

22/09/2026: Excellent service, great menu selections and reasonably priced . Very busy restaurant. Eggs Benedict with smoked salmon were perfect.

29/07/2026: As soon as we drove onto the property, we were met with the lovely valets that handled our bags and asked questions to provide any assistance with our travels details and guidance on what to do in Cork. Once we entered the lobby, the staff was lovely and very helpful. Checking in was a breeze and you felt the staff was very attentive with providing information on our stay and details about where to find the restaurants and bars on the grounds. Our room was very clean and comfortable. The staff wrote us a note for our anniversary and provided little sweet treats, which was a lovely touch. The amenities in our room were excellent with a soaking tub and a nice and big walk-shower. The location of the Manor was central to the college and town. They do provide a car service and have a partnership with a local taxi company that was readily available to take into town. The atmosphere of the manor was incredible. You really felt like you were in the country side and heard very little noise from the surrounding area. With all the amenities, the service the staffed provided, and relaxing environment, I feel the value of staying here is well worth the price. This was our first time staying at Hayfield Manor and I will be booking again for a longer stay, next time. I highly recommend staying here for a couples retreat to take advantage of the spa or a nice family weekend to unwind.

24/07/2026: After staying at Hayfield Manor every other hotel stay will have so much to live up to. The grounds, restaurants, bars and rooms were absolutely beautiful. The pool, steam room and spa amenities were so beautiful and a great addition to the stay. The service was beyond any that we have ever experienced. Mary, Holly and all the staff were beyond helpful, kind and attentive to every detail. I will always remember our stay at the Manor and greatly appreciate all of the staff for their hospitality, attention to detail and kind gestures.

26/08/2026: Nicest matcha. The staff are lovely and it’s one of the few café’s I’ve been to where the cakes are as much as an attraction as the drinks are. It’s also very comfy in there, which paired with the late closing hour, is great for studying.

15/08/2026: I give it 10 stars! Delicious, affordable, and with friendly staff ❤️ I've been craving milk tea during my trip, so I've come here every day.

14/10/2026: Our waitress turned really snobby because she accused one of our table members of hitting her, when it was a simple chaotic restaurant accidental run in.

12/10/2026: That was the best burger I have ever had. In fact, in the 4 days we were in Cork, we ate there twice.

07/09/2026: Without fail the staff always brighten my day

14/08/2026: Delicious meal and attentive service. The sea bass was exceptional. Hope to visit again soon

18/09/2026: I was there for the third time two weeks ago, and they never cease to amaze me, especially with the service, and of course, the excellent food, as always. It's by far my favorite restaurant in the city.

18/09/2026: I have had dinner in this restaurant on a number of occasions. The food is consistently excellent and the staff are so friendly, welcoming and knowledgeable. It is also very clear from the menu that those with food intolerance are very well catered for. I would highly recommend this restaurant.

05/10/2026: Let's start with a mile negative, this place is not cheap. But you get what you pay for, because the food, the wine and the service here are top notch. Very highly recommended.

21/09/2026: Best meal I've had in 3.5 weeks in England, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Wales!

16/09/2026: Cheap easy breakfast and lunch, no talking unless you invite conversation, direct, polite and friendly staff. full meal (too much food) for under 10-15 a person with a drink. Highly recommend!

06/09/2026: The manager is so nice and funny, food is delicious and well priced. Beautiful chai teas

09/10/2026: City pubs are just too expensive for my liking theze days, 7€ for a Guinness is just not right this is why I dont head to these places anymore

28/09/2026: Very friendly staff and delicious food!

26/09/2026: I was blown away by Gekikara ramen. A bright broth packed with flavour and left my lips tingling. The ramen had freshly chopped spring onion, a soy sauce marinaded boiled egg, thinly sliced kimchi for a crunch and the sweet sticky teriyaki chicken paired brilliantly when soaked in the broth. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for spicy ramen as it far exceeded my expectations. The stellar reviews for this restaurant are definitely warranted!

14/09/2026: Great food, friendly staff and good price
