The best restaurants in Cork city council

12/10/2026: Really enjoyed our lunch here, food and venue were excellent.

07/10/2026: I ordered the bacon and maple pancakes which were delicious along with a coffee which I must say might be the best in Cork. The prices were very reasonable and staff were lovely. You can look out onto the beautiful views of the harbour mouth.

11/10/2026: Wonderful food and great service. Best pizza in Cork!

10/10/2026: Fantastic food, great service and great for coeliacs. My family, including 5 coeliacs, had a fab time at the restaurant last evening. The food was scrumptious! I highly recommend the gluten free pizzas. Gf pasta is available too, and the chunky chips....yum. Great Italian food and great gluten free options for everything. The staff are lovely, knowledgeable and helped make it a special birthday meal for my daughter. We will be back.

30/09/2026: Incredible coffee!! We use the Italian roast beans and they are top class. Nicer than alot of cafe's and restaurants even!!

11/09/2026: Best coffee shop for bean! And sorry for spilling my drink Júlia 🫠😅

11/10/2026: Excellent! Delicious and generous portions, very welcoming staff. We highly recommend it.

11/10/2026: The waitress was very friendly and gave us advice on what to order, and her suggestions were spot on; everything was delicious.

25/10/2026: We visited Cork recently and had a dinner reservation at Scoozi to celebrate my daughter's birthday. Even though we arrived early, the staff were so accommodating and welcomed us right away, and they had even decorated the table for us! The food was incredible. The absolute highlight was when they brought out the cake and played the 'Happy Birthday' song. It was a truly memorable dining experience!

15/10/2026: Huge thanks to Danny and his team for looking after us on Saturday night. Left down by another restaurant for an important family birthday. They fitted in our group of 8 and made us so welcome. Gorgeous food as always, friendly but professional service and lovely atmosphere. Scoozis is still the top family restaurant in Cork with great menu, great value and great staff. Thanks again! Roz and Buckley family.

30/09/2026: I had really been looking forward to trying this place. It was on my list of places to visit in Cork, so I was unfortunately very disappointed. I found a bone in my fried chicken and actually bit down on it with my teeth. It completely put me off my food. I told the staff about it, but they didn’t offer to make me a new dish, give me a discount, or anything similar. So I ended up eating the rest even though I didn’t really wanted to, because I had already paid for it. Such a disappointing experience. I had really been looking forward to trying this place.

20/09/2026: This place is a gem. The wings are to die for and the rice balls are class. Seating is limited but they are very accommodating and can sometimes give you a buzz when a seat becomes free! One of our favourites ❤️

06/08/2026: Delicious food and very nice service recommend very good.

06/08/2026: Encouraged by Google reviews while strolling through Cork, we stopped in for lunch, and we didn't regret it! The food was excellent, freshly prepared, and the portions were large, so you could easily fill up on one dish. The shrimp were perfectly prepared, the pasta was also very good, and the fries were crispy!!! Best regards to the entire restaurant team, fellow Poles! 🙋🏼‍♂️🇵🇱

15/09/2026: Love coming here. It’s a hotspot for UCC students so it’s often packed with a queue out the door. Service is fast though, and they do to go orders

17/08/2026: really disappointed that they've started using AI for their focaccia special posters

18/07/2026: Amazing atmosphere and live music was really special on the Thursday night. Definitely recommend.

17/04/2026: Fantastic evening, super music session and crazy pints. Old school hospitality and so welcoming. My first visit but definitely not my last.

29/08/2026: Tasty breakfast. Delicious coffe and great service. We will be back

26/08/2026: Late breakfast/lunch with my wife today,great friendly service & lovely food!

21/10/2026: Amazing food and service !!!! Our waitress Leah couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful 😁😁 We will be back !!

28/09/2026: Stopped today on our journey from Kilkenny to Killarney. We were so impressed by the lovely female staff who greeted us. Dare I say ‘salt of the earth’. Food was excellent and we left promising ourselves we would return here.

18/10/2026: Edit September 2026. I finally found it and it was impeccable. Unbelievable. I get the whole hush thing, but it's hardly so hush that it can't be found. Think I found the back of the kitchen, but then I said screw this, i came for dinner not a treasure hunt. Treasure was found in the end -McDonalds Ballincollig

09/10/2026: one of the best burger in Cork!

23/10/2026: Ordered on just eat at half past midnight. Waited two and a half hours in which I kept pressing the order still not here button and they kept replying with there is a delay and it is on its way. Only when I called the restaurant did they tell me they don’t even deliver to my area and that they closed at midnight. I asked them why did they accept the order in the first place and they blamed the driver. I asked them to cancel the order and they said that I have to cancel it ( if I cancel it just eat will charge a portion if not full price for the order). Incredibly shady would not recommend

21/10/2026: Best curry cheese chips in de world x please put garlic bread back on the menu for Ciggie x ✨🫶

20/09/2026: Amazing bartenders, and the bands were just as cool! They made me want to go back to Ireland, and Cork in particular! Stardog and Fior, incredible live rock bands!

07/08/2026: Amy did a great job 👍👍 she gave me her real name which is a proof of trust, something rare these days.. GO AMY!

30/08/2026: For many years we have frequented here. Absolutely great summer place for us. I am sure the winters are good too. The seafood is amazing and is great value.
