Dukes Coffee Company
Cork
28/07/2024: Wonderful coffee and food house just off Paul Street and Patrick's Street. I've experienced early morning expresso on several occasions with each serving being absolutely consistent, with first class service and a welcome smile. Foods and selection also great. One to not miss...🤗
08/07/2024: This was a go to restaurant adjacent to the Mater hospital, the coffee is still delicious and the staff helpful. However, they have dropped both porridge and granola from their breakfast menu which were the two healthiest options, so sadly we have stopped going as after a long journey to the hospital it was the perfect breakfast stop. Tomorrow we head for an alternative.

The Pav
Cork
29/03/2024: The Pav is my favourite spot for a drink with friends.
It’s cosy, has great decor, and the music volume is low enough that you can talk with your friends easily.
The cocktails are too notch.
The cinema area upstairs I tried once and wasn’t a fan.
The men’s toilet lock has been broken the last few months which makes me wonder how attentive their management are.
Also the hot water comes out boiling sometimes which is dangerous. They need to adjust.
If they can make the upstairs better and improve the toilet situation this place would be top notch.
20/03/2024: "Colour bar with plenty of space for dancing & live music "Great service & cocktails"

Sketch
Cork
30/09/2024: Excellent food and service. Loved the cappuccino cake, a nice variation on tiramisu.
29/09/2024: Food was very good and so is the venue. Unfortunately majorly let down by poor service which can only be attributed to poor training. The girl serving us in her defence, was new but again if she was properly trained would not have caused any issue. Before we ordered our food I ordered a beer and my wife ordered a cocktail. The cocktail arrived but no sign of my beer. Eventually our server came back to say they did not have the beer I ordered (Imperial Pale Ale) a bit bemused that it took so long to come back to tell me this but okay I’ll get over it. I ordered a different beer (Moretti). Again after a long wait the waitress came back to say that they did not have that beer either. I then asked for another beer (Hophouse) and again after a long wait a different waitress came to explain that they only had a limited amount of beers on draught because they were renovating their main bar!! You would think I would have been told this in the first instance. I should point out that the beers I had ordered were all still present on the drinks menu. Either the staff should be instructed to tell customers that the beers are limited for above reason or better still add a piece of paper to the menu with a paper clip or something (to avoid reprinting) that states this. Basic stuff. Starters and main course came, I had asked for an extra side dish. I got two extra side dishes, when I pointed this out I was told not to worry it was an error and would not be charged. The girl had to be called back to take our dessert order as she had basically forgotten we were even there. To top things off I was charged for the extra side dish on the bill and had to get it removed.
Table behind us with a large amount of people and a different wait person were having similar issues to ourselves.
A nice venue, nice food, poorly trained staff.
