Highly recommend and will be sure to use their services again for baby’s first birthday . We ordered a lemon cake, personalised shortbread cookies, Thai red curry which was delicious, beef, mini sausage rolls and goujons, sandwiches and cheese and grape skewers! Everything was devoured and portions were generous. Caroline was so helpful in the lead up to the day providing advice on the day logistics and was a pleasure to deal with. 5++++++*

29/09/2026: Damn. Got a Cajun flatbread. Unbelievable 👍🏻

18/10/2026: We went for Sunday lunch today, the waitress hadn’t a clue what was going on. She couldn’t answer any of my questions about the specials. To be fair the food was quick but we still hadn’t gotten drinks by the time it came (20 minutes) and we were also waiting ages to order. We had the lamb it wasn’t roasting when it came out was it was warm and I taught it was quite dry to be honest, I asked for extra gravy and the waitress forgot about it so I had to remind her when it eventually came my food had gone cold. The portion was quite big but there wasn’t much meat. It also was only a small ramekin of gravy which I thought fair enough until they charged me €1.50 for it ! Management definitely need to invest in training staff and taking more on as it was obvious they were under pressure today.

13/10/2026: Menu of the day at a good price. Pizzas, hamburgers, noodles, salads, ...

25/09/2026: A but expensive. Pancakes are not pancakes but crepes and not freshly made. Coffee is just ok. Nice service and place

24/09/2026: I recently stopped by Dukes Cafe on Carey's Lane, and it completely exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for a spot in the city center that ticks all the boxes, this is it. The coffee here is simply great—rich, smooth, and expertly brewed. They also offer a wonderful selection of tasty food with plenty of delicious options to satisfy any craving. The service is fast and efficient, perfectly complemented by a team of genuinely friendly staff who make you feel right at home. Whether you are dropping in for a quick morning caffeine fix or settling down for a bite to eat, Dukes Cafe is well worth a visit. Highly recommended!

18/07/2026: Was left in to bar after a quick search from the bouncer two friends of mine went to go to the toilet and all of a sudden male blonde skinny bartender with a mullet just said we have to get out with no probable cause, I think the service is horrible and we deserved a reason to be told to leave We were just visiting for the weekend and we didn’t deserve that kind of hassle to be treated like a criminal will be taking action this is disgusting

16/07/2026: Cool place, great cocktails, great staff.

28/09/2026: Had the beef udon and really enjoyed it. The beef was tender, the noodles were great and everything tasted really fresh. Good portion as well. Would definitely come back.

09/10/2026: Super yummy and authentic Thai food and drink! Very friendly owner and we felt like we were back in Thailand! Thank you ka 🙏🏻 We can’t wait to return for khao soi and taro milk drink!

14/06/2026: Absolutely AMAZING Thai green curry

07/09/2026: Update - 2 years later. A absolute must try is the new Korean Glaze Sandwich available fir a limited period. Super tasty. A meal in its self. See picture for ingredients. ———————- At the drive through, had my favorite - the fish and chips, but it had too much batter and not enough fish. Hmmm…

19/08/2026: So as I m from England I have a certain level of expectation, Supermac's is amazing. They offer fast food of today with the excellent service we got as standard in the past. The standard of restaurant and food is well above anything any of the competitors have to offer. Staff are happy and helpful, a breath of fresh air. The site I visited had a combination of food offerings from various providers all under one roof. Well worth a visit. I'm impressed, thank you guys.

30/09/2026: Cute spot, good sushi and lovely service. Unfortunately it’s on a busy street so it can be a little loud, but good coffee as well :)

28/09/2026: Very polite and friendly attention from the workers, along with detailed recommendation of the menu

07/10/2026: This establishment is the best restaurant in Cork or perhaps Ireland. Delicious food, amazing staff and great atmosphere every single time I dine here throughout past two decades. Highly recommend if you in the area! Manager Ana is a hospitality superstar and will make sure you will have best experience possible!

21/09/2026: One of my favourites. Love the food here. Pre booking is recommended

22/08/2025: shocking standards Since they closing down, raw chips , chicken burger dead dry and black inside meet , chicken wings black inside absolutely disgusting

10/08/2025: Visited Route Fourteen with my family for lunch. The food was great, the dining area was spacious, but I have a few points I hope can be considered to improve the service. There were two lunch menus on our visit: one standard lunch menu (same as website) and one specific for the day or week. We ordered from the second menu since they seemed seasonal and more fresh than the regular menu. The prices were similar to other gastropubs around Cork City. I ordered pork belly with vegetables and mashed potatoes. The pork was stuffed with walnuts and dates, a stuffing I would have never thought would taste so nice with pork. Other dishes we had were the "Smash Burger" and Reuben sandwich. We ordered chicken wings with buffalo sauce for starters. Everybody enjoyed their orders but the beef in the Reuben would be better if it was not heated much. For dessert we had a mango and raspberry cheesecake and lemon meringue. Both were presented nicely and tasted amazing. They are best eaten between two people as they are large desserts. We were seated at a bright high table by the window, however we were near a large private booking and I felt a bit under pressure as the staff were setting the tables around us for the arriving diners. Given that the venue was not busy when we arrived, I would have preferred sitting further away from the large group booking. I would highly recommend visiting Route Fourteen on your next day out for lunch or dinner at a gastropub.
