16/10/2025: The Allihies Copper Mine Museum is a small but extremely informative museum – lovingly designed and full of fascinating insights into the history of copper mining in this region. The exhibition is presented in a modern style and impressively conveys how hard and deprived the lives of the miners once were. The personal atmosphere is particularly pleasant: you can feel the dedication with which the museum is run. The location in the picturesque village of Allihies, surrounded by impressive coastal scenery, also makes a visit a special experience. A small, yet exquisite museum that should not be missed – highly recommended!

10/10/2025: Beautiful location, delicious food and great service. The €7.00 for the museum was seriously overpriced. Interesting but small and not worth it

The location is convenient, and the ambiance is enhanced by the attentive staff.

31/01/2026: Bombay Palace in Cork is a fantastic choice for Indian cuisine! The Chicken Balti and Tandoori Chicken are both bursting with flavor and cooked to perfection, truly delicious. The location is perfect, and the ambiance is very inviting. Plus, the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, making the whole dining experience even better. Highly recommended!

09/12/2025: Good combo sandwich, fries and milkshake, best price Tuesday and Wednesday.

17/11/2025: It's better than competitors in the area but nothing was really standout. Respect for the meal deal, you get some decent food for the price point. However was given the poorest seat in the place where I could barely squeeze behind the table and given a beautiful view of the cleanup station. Also had to ask for cutlery and extra straws cos those paper straws just ain't it and collapse easily.

21/11/2025: spice bag was delicious, owners really friendly and hospitable

02/11/2025: I got spicy chicken meehon after describing what kind of a noodle i want on the night of the halloween,no eggs not sweet sauce ,the women taking my order was very practical to guide me with my choice and also asked me if i want spicy or not.(it is really spicy so if it is not for you keep that in mind) What i received as my order was totally what i was craving.the price (11.50)sounded a bit too much in the beginning for a takeaway noodle but considering the portion guess it was ok, she also let me charge my phone inside on a very busy night even before my order so thanks again to her for that.The only thing i would recommend them to come up with a solution with is their plastic boxes they put the food in.As you would expect asian food is served super duper hot and it is really not healthy to serve boiling hot food in plastic boxes,other than that the food is 5/5 and the service was even better

29/12/2025: One of my favourite bars in the city - especially upstairs! Such a vibe here (quite small though so definitely for groups under 4)

26/01/2026: Excellent Hotel and Staff couldnt be nicer ... Will stay again for sure ...Breakfast & Dinner Beautiful ... And Rooms comfortable and clean ...

28/12/2025: Donatello is a great spot for a tasty meal, with well-prepared food and a relaxed, welcoming vibe.

03/10/2025: Not long after a collection order, family Thursday deal, wings, burger, garlic bread with cheese, baguette with chips and a drink. Service was spot on from phone order to collection, friendly staff and a nice girl even opened the door when I was leaving. The food was absolutely banging, if Mr Donatello himself walked in the door and asked what could be done better I genuinely wouldn't have an answer, absolutely not one fault could be found with any of the food, from one chef to another 👏👏👏👏👏👏 keep her lit

18/11/2025: Very good prices. I've been going to akira for a while now, when I want some comfort food and something that is not that expensive and fancy. The girls upstairs are amazing and give you a proper japanese experience. There are some amazing dishes like the ramen, it's not that easy to find a heavy and comfy ramen like in Akira. Usually I feel Japanese restaurants have become something superfancy that don't make you feel like home. Everything is about the rules and about expensive sushi, but Akira goes beyond that. Akira takes the typical Japanese experience and brings it to your table for a really good price. To put an example the sake is something that goes for 40€ minimum in most japanese restaurants. If I remember right, you can have bottles of Sake for less than 25 euros in Akira.And even Wine. But not only focusing on the prices .Overall Akira has made me feel like the place to go, when I'm not sure what I want and never failed for a second. Thanks to all the staff.

30/10/2025: Delicious Japanese food, super friendly service, and a sensational atmosphere; for anyone who enjoys Asian cuisine like me, this restaurant is an excellent choice!

13/10/2025: Stopped by The Glass House at the Montenotte Hotel in Cork for drinks, and it’s exactly the kind of spot you want on a sunny afternoon. The view is incredible especially if you sit outside, you can see almost the entire city, which makes for the perfect backdrop. 🌞🍹 I went with a cocktail and a small plate, and both were delightful well-made, refreshing, and perfect for a leisurely sip while taking in the view. The staff were attentive and friendly, making the experience even more enjoyable. Overall, it’s a great spot for drinks with a view. Nothing over the top just good drinks, stunning scenery, and a relaxed atmosphere. Ratings: 🍴 Food/Drinks: 4/5 🛎 Service & Ambience: 5/5 💸 Money’s Worth: 4/5 Overall: 4/5 – A stylish spot with one of the best views in Cork.

16/09/2025: Some of the best cocktails we ever had

17/10/2025: It was ok in here. But the Murphy's wasn't as good as other bars near here. The service was fast and friendly.
