18/07/2026: It’s busy for a reason , very good

19/06/2026: Just got takeaway.everything was lovely.girl behind counter great worker doing it all herself.will def be back.

09/08/2026: Average Indian restaurant. Curry itself was fine, fairly simple in flavour but a good level of spice. Naan bread was overly burnt and oily. I left most of the kulfi. Food came out reasonably quickly. Was expensive for what it was.

22/06/2026: Quality is dropping at this resuarant. On the last visit, i ordered one thing and received a different dish all together, waitress tried to convince me otherwise.

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

15/06/2025: Lovely welcome firstly Very Child friendly Loads of parking Service was great and staff are lovely Food was top notch Will 100% return and defo recommend

04/10/2026: We've just turned up quite hungover from a night out in Cork & our server, Lisa, has just brightened our day. From the minute she sat us down she was so lovely, funny, chatty & made us feel ever-so-slightly less hungover! I've just watched her work herself silly all around the restaurant, serving, greeting, cleaning, re-arranging - all sorts, and she's done it all with a spring in her step and a huge smile. She's waving goodbye to everyone & wishing them all the best with their sundays, i'm not sure if it's the hangover or what but this amount of loveliness is something I'm not used to from a London nandos 🤣 give Lisa a raise! x

27/09/2026: There is one member staff needs some customer service training if don’t like her job leave

05/09/2026: Best for Organic and vegan foods

30/08/2026: Well worth a visit. Beautiful clean , with a thrift shop and book shop attached

15/09/2026: Nice setup. Open spaces. Not doing it justice as I was there too early. Just passing by & dropped in. Will go back some.

07/09/2026: A great place to enjoy its terrace on a sunny day.

04/10/2026: Lovely staff and original chicken is nice ☺️

04/10/2026: Very good chicken, properly cooked 😋 and staff are very friendly ❤️

24/10/2026: Amazing place if you're looking for the worst pint in the known universe. Absolutely vile Guinness.

21/09/2026: We had a ot of fun seeking the folk music scene in several of hhe pubs in Cork city.

14/10/2026: Very disappointing experience. I asked for a less-burnt sausage roll, but the owner became argumentative insisting they were all the same. I decided not to purchase it and simply asked for my coffee instead, only for him to refuse to serve me. Completely unnecessary and unprofessional behaviour.

21/08/2026: Hidden gem . Owner is a lovely guy ..

05/09/2026: Came here to grab a something to eat and grab a beer. We got here at 4pm when google said they opened at at 2pm and the kitchen opened at 3pm. The bartender said he had just opened and when I asked for food, he said food was not being served. Oh well, moved on. Please fix your you hours and fix your food hours.

15/08/2026: Great night out. It has a food truck selling very big portions of food 😋

12/03/2026: Good coffee and really cool building

15/02/2026: Love this cafe , very spacious and a good queuing system, great variety of cakes and sandwiches. Staff are friendly and helpful. Has ample seating outdoor s. Situated right in the heart of ballincollig shopping centre entrance.

25/08/2026: Great bar fantastic down to earth staff. Great place to go for a pint on your own or with friends.its more popular than ever.

05/07/2026: Perfect spot for a Canadian husband and father of 3 young children sleeping in the hotel nearby to have 2 pints and catch an hour of authentic Irish live music. No food service but I'm pretty sure that's just the style of pub. I enjoyed the Stag IPA that the bartender recommended for a local IPA.

15/05/2026: Best night club in Cork. Without a doubt. It's very diverse, there's something for everyone. Even coming to Nudes during the day to read a book is fabulous. The space is beautiful and I always feel welcome and safe. I prefer coming to heavy gigs and EDM. This is the place to be for underground music. Thank you for caring and keeping the scene alive. And my favourite part: this room has the best sound in the city. I kid you not!!! Keep going strong! 🤘

08/09/2026: Very nice just came for coffee as I was on my way into the hospital for my physio appointment so thought of coming in here as it’s on the way and it’s very near to the hospital too

04/09/2026: Nice spot, good coffee and friendly staff but the place is filthy, the toilet needs a complete revamp, filthy outdated and see through glass at the door.

20/09/2026: Best Indian food you can get outside of India. All fresh ingredients, everything made to order.

19/09/2026: spent a week in istanbul, ate at so many places but not once did i get an upset stomach or acid reflux. unfortunately we wanted to end the trip with a cuisine that felt closer to home but the food was so bad im sorry. the waiting time was very exhausting too. the portions were way too small but maybe that’s a good thing considering how bad everything tasted. i’m sorry i really wanted to like this place and the lady was very sweet but that doesn’t really make up for the stomach ache i have to endure throughout my way to the airport lol
