The Anglers Bar & Restaurant
Cork
29/12/2025: Great pub, great food, Could not fault it
21/12/2025: Poor turnaround times with up to 1 hour wait for starter. Despite delay by restaurant was asked to leave at 2 hours as not getting desert. Other tables present were >2hours and not asked to leave as they ordered desert.

Boru Coffee Shop
Cork
31/12/2025: I got a takeaway americano here. The coffee is good but the staff couldn’t be less interested as one of their friends was there. €3.40 for the smallest cup is definitely up there in cost as coffee goes.
30/12/2025: The coffee was excellent and the service was very good. Asking for a tip on the pay machine is over the top though.

06/06/2026: Gorgeous, cozy, eclectic cafe! Dog friendly too which is incredible. They have dog treats, dog water bowls and a designated water tap for doggo water refills.
The staff are so friendly and the coffee is great. They have lots of sweet treats. I didnt get a chance to look at their full menu.

Soba
Cork
05/05/2026: I used to order from here often, especially the rice, and it was always great. Lately, though, the quality has dropped a lot. The rice is bland, overly sticky, and seems like it’s not even freshly made - more like porridge than proper rice.
Not sure what changed, but it’s disappointing, especially considering the price. I won’t be ordering again and don’t recommend this place.
29/04/2026: The food was amazing. Prepared incredibly quickly and the staff was incredibly friendly.

The Briar Rose
Cork
24/05/2026: Attended a birthday party here. The venue was great inside and out. The toilets were clean. The staff were friendly.
22/05/2026: I love the new look Briar Rose and the new lunch menu is really good. I had the pastrami with sauerkraut on sourdough bread and it was delicious. I had a sneaky look at the dinner menu and I'm definitely going back for the Tomahawk Steak.

Loose Leaf Tea and Coffee
Cork
24/12/2025: Such a great selection. Lovely chilled out cafe with friendly staff.
30/11/2025: Gorgeous shop and teas. Was extremely accommodating for an initial misplaced order now their Dreamcatcher tea is an integral part of my nighttime routine.
Their products are high quality, well priced, and delivered with excellent service. Highly recommended.
