The Black Market
Cork
07/01/2026: Great variety, good hygiene, food fab
21/12/2025: Lovely quiet place compared to the Marina Market.
The big horror themed art pictures on display is a let down though. No need for it. If you're thinking of bringing children in here I'd strongly advise against it.

Healy's Bar
Cork
30/07/2025: A great experience. The beer garden at the back of the PB is very relaxing; it's a covered, cemented courtyard. If you want to chat, you have to stay at the counter. We enjoyed it. I highly recommend it.
26/07/2025: When you can go to a local pub and have a Beamish, Murphy’s and Guinness life is great. Don’t eat (don’t try really) and just wanted to sit with a pint and talk. Everyone was super friendly…I accidentally dropped a 10 Euro and the good folks at the table next to us pointed it out.

Coriander - Nepalese And Indian Restaurant Douglas
Cork
17/03/2026: We had a great experience at Coriander. First of all, we had no reservation and this place was pretty packed (always a good sign) but they found us a table and treated us really well. Service was fast and friendly and there was no rushing us out afterwards.
The food is brilliant. Amazing flavours, colours, smells...beautiful presentation.
We had the Papadoms with mango and tomato chutneys, House Special Aloo, Lamb Saag, Goan Prawn Curry, Saffron Pilau Rice and Garlic Naan. All fantastic.
Be warned, however, this is proper curry...even the items with no chilli 🌶️ symbol on the menu could knock your socks off if you don't have the constitution for it.
Our socks were very much knocked off...but the food was so fantastic it was worth every penny, and I'd go again in a heartbeat..
I just might try the Butter Chicken or the Korma next time!
28/02/2026: Surprisingly food very delicious and tasty, staff friendly. Definitely coming back for more delicious food

Franciscan Well Brewery
Cork
27/03/2026: Nice place for a beer when you are thirsty. Not a crammed pub space. Has a nice patio with a pizza place (Pompeii Pizza), next to the brewery tanks. Different beers on tap. Friendly people.
25/03/2026: It's not a remarkable place, it's a random bar, it does have a good open space, and I think they sometimes have Irish music, but when I went at 8pm it had already finished.

Sober Lane
Cork
29/03/2026: Only downside, Guinness wasn't the best
20/02/2026: Went here tonight for some food , big mistake and even bigger let down , I got a chicken burger and chips , there was no taste whatsoever in the burger it was terrible and the chips were all burnt so badly that they were completely unbeatable , a member of staff asked was everything OK, i showed her the chips and she fully agreed with me and apologised straight away , I would definitely have got nicer food in supermacs fast food takeaway , I basically paid €20 for an apology , first and definitely last time going here , Cork is full of really nice places to eat I just happened to pick one of the worst places to waste my hard earned money and time , please for your own sake dont make the stupid mistake I made by going here....
