The best restaurants in Cork city council

13/07/2025: Great toilets 🚽!!!!! Especially when you need to go 💦!!!!

16/03/2025: Lovely atmosphere and very pleasant staff

09/08/2025: Very good Indian/Nepalese Restaurant. Real authentic taste, generous portions. Staff is really nice and service is great.

08/08/2025: In my opinion this is the best restaurant in Cork. Great food and great service. Highly recommend the Aloo Chop for starter

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.

21/07/2025: El almuerzo aquí fue mixto. La sopa de mariscos con pan integral era excelente, pero la pizza pepperoni era decepcionante... .. corteza empapada y todo. La talla de carne asada era bueno, pero lado acompañante eran sosos.

18/07/2025: Work outing there. Fantastic venue, food and staff. Well-done all! 👏

22/02/2025: Lovely Food, Atmosphere and Friendly, Helpful Staff 😀

03/02/2025: Love this place staff are super nice great place for a catch up and a coffee food is lovely

30/07/2025: I was in this place twice and it was a very enjoyable experience. Sit outside and enjoy the people watching - there's plenty to see. They serve a small carafe of red wine that is equal to about a glass and a half. Maybe that accounts for the slightly more expensive price. But best of all, the staff are very friendly - just what you'd expect from those that live in the true capital of Ireland. We didn't have the food so can't comment on that. 5* all round.

04/07/2025: Hit this place just at the right time ⏲️ as it had just opened in the afternoon and we were the second persons to go in. After doing the tour of Cork we needed somewhere to sit down have a drink 🍸 and 🍻 people watch for an hour. It didn't take long for the outside seating area to full up because everyone had the same idea as us. Very well staffed beautiful pub inside, plenty of history and a good selection of beers 🍻 and wine 🍷 👌. Excellent pint of Guinness.

10/08/2025: Fantastic bar really food excellent Staff so helpful will return again

04/08/2025: Food great, rough crowd, owner doesn’t leave a great impression

13/07/2025: Great for food and a few drinks

14/06/2025: Lovely irish bar with a great atmosphere. Modern yet vintage, but very cosy in its environment. Food and service was great !

04/07/2025: Cool place. Lovely seating outside, especially when the sun is shining. Those PIES are very tasty 😋

26/06/2025: Came here on Fathers Day, was very busy as you would expect but didn’t have to wait long for my food. Really good atmosphere and had entertainment for the children which my girls loved. Will be back again!

11/08/2025: The best bar in town in my eyes. Always great staff, friendly fun and easygoing. Lots of choice for drinks and lovely pizza made to order. Beer garden is lovely with a cover when needed. I dont think for me Tom Barrys ever dissapoints except for the fact it no longer has Tom. It really is a south side gem in my eyes.

03/08/2025: Tom Barry's is a brilliant traditional type pub on the South side of Cork with the perfect mix of both indoor and outdoor spaces. The staff are super friendly and they encourage a great atmosphere with trad music and chats, its always a great night here! They serve a beautiful pint of the Guinness as well as other popular local and not so local beers to carter to everyone! 27-July-2025 Update: My wife and I called in as we were nearby and said its been a minute since we were here. The bar hasn't changed much if at all and the staff as as friendly as ever! I got one of the local Cork beers Original 7 Larger and my wife got a Murphy's stout and we took in the fine weather out the back in the beer garden. Food: The pizzas here are delicious! I highly recommend stopping by for a pizza and mach use of the pizza and a pint deal! We got a spicey salami pizza and a garlic and tomato sauce pizza while we were here. Both were amazing and we were surprised by the garlic pizza as we didn't realise it didn't have cheese but it was perfectly delicious! Old Review: There is loads of space to choose from be it the small bar at the front, the back room by the fire, the side bar by the beer garden and last but not least, the fantastic beer garden out the back! Any area you choose will be great! It can be very busy at weekends but come here early or mid week if you are looking for something a little quieter! Over the years I've spent many a Friday or Saturday evening catching up with friends and its always been a great location! The beer garden is my favourite spot in this bar and they have their own pizza kitchen in the back garden as well. Definitely check out Tom Barry's, you won't be disappointed!

03/08/2025: Food was very good , portions very nice. Nice ambience.

03/08/2025: Food quality is very high quality here is coriander. Personally recommend the the tandoori chicken, the lamb shank or the lamb chops. But the winner dish is the vegetable bhaji. One of the most underrated restaurants in Cork.

29/07/2025: Absolutely beautiful couldn’t get any better of service.Super prices and most of all a lovely bunch of people

30/05/2025: Best cafe in cork. Sandwiches to die for

03/06/2025: Lovely cafe, great choice of meals and wonderful pastries. Employees were very polite and patient explaining all the options and serving food to our table in good time. There was space to park the bikes outside on the street.

30/05/2025: A group of three of us on a day out from Kerry. Asked people on the street where they would recommend. A fantastic choice, great selection of food, lovely staff and great banter, highly recommended Food Capers, will go back next time we are in the area. Set our day off to a mighty start. Thank you.

05/08/2025: We had lunch at this lovely restaurant and were absolutely blown away by the quality of the ingredients and the great number of vegan and gluten-free options. We had the vegan lasagna (be careful, its very hot), the gluten-free pizza and two pasta dishes. Everything tasted great and the service was phenomenal as well. We finished our wonderful meal with two espresso and hope to come back very soon :)

03/08/2025: Excellent food and service Owner and staff are very friendly. Overall great experience will definitely go back.

08/07/2025: Lots of do there in terms of entertainment. The food wasn't great though.

28/06/2025: This was a very fun place. Staff was friendly. Food was pretty good.
