Paddy The Farmers
Cork
09/09/2026: We had an amazing time. The staff were very courteous and helpful. The bar was really clean and very comfortable.
25/08/2026: Lots of screens for the football, sat at the bar, service was friendly, pints were brilliant, nice and spacious place with a good view of all the TVs. Left to my own devices watching the early kick-off. Not as cosy as your traditional pubs, quite well polished, still got that sort of sports bar / pub / walkabout vibe to it, food looked good too. Could easily whittle away an afternoon here.

Myo Cafe
Cork
09/09/2026: My girlfriend and I were visiting Cork for a couple of days and were walking down Widderling's Lane down into the city from Shandon.
We decided to pop into Myo Cafe for a coffee and a scone. Never in my life have I experienced such friendly and welcoming people as in this cafe. Even with the place jammed, the owner kindly went and found us a place to sit and was a total pleasure to deal with.
Brilliant to see such a place in Cork city and I can see that they really provide a space where locals and tourists alike can meet, chat and enjoy great produce in an area of the city that has come on leaps and bounds in recent years. Highly recommend!
26/08/2026: Super nice and cute place with a lot of gluten free option. People were super nice too!! 🌈🍰✨

Elbow Lane
Cork
13/05/2026: Overall it was good and was surprised to find the restaurant packed at 530pm.
The smoked goat cheese was delicious, punchy smoked goat cheese taste paired surprisingly well with a coconut polenta.
The next highlight was the lamb rump - really grill well with such a difficult cut and quality of the lamb was good.
I think the let down for me was the ribeye - it wasn’t bad but it’s not exceptionally good and the butter that was torched at the top didn’t do much of the trick.
30/04/2026: Amazing delicious meat. So good advice from waiter.
Good beers

The River Club
Cork
15/09/2026: I had the River Lee Balti Curry with chicken and it was amazing. Our server Iryna was great ❤️
12/09/2026: Was terrific to have easy access to the restaurant from our room at the hotel - but honestly, we’d go back just for the food. Our server, Donna, was particularly welcoming and the drinks were top notch.

Awesome Walls Cork
Cork
18/08/2026: Very good Gym. The installation and staff are very good. There is a major issue and is pricing. Right now it's 72 euro for the month + matriculation (20 euro) + member card(15 euro). Not only is expensive but you have to pay two added spenses.
14/08/2026: Great gym, friendly staff and climbers. Nice routes.

Absolutely fantastic place! The food was genuinely excellent — fresh, full of flavour and beautifully prepared. The portions were generous, and everything tasted exactly as it should. 👌
The staff were also very friendly and professional, which made the whole experience even better. You can really see that they care about the quality of their food and making sure their customers are happy.

29/07/2026: Fantastic brunch with my boys (8&9). They had the kids pancakes and the kids cheeseburger (great size). Food was lovely. Decor is a bit disappointing. Not very cosy or inviting, bit mismatched. Service was good, not overly friendly. Had to ask twice for ketchup. But will be back for the food.
25/07/2026: Brunch was unrealll and the staff are friendly
