Butlers Chocolate Café, Oliver Plunkett Street
Cork
06/09/2025: I drank a tea and the chocolate it was delicious. I took a good time with my friends.
31/08/2025: Butlers used to be name i trusted, but their dark hot chocolate is now awful. It was bad - even tasted burnt. Definitely not worth the hype anymore. I hope they will work on the quality so I can once again enjoy the good old days of that taste.

Bombay Palace
Cork
05/11/2025: Fabulous food! Excellent service by staff. Would highly recommend.
24/10/2025: One of the best Indian restaurants in Cork!
I highly recommend the samosa and onion bhaji; you can truly taste that they’re made from scratch. The masala tea is another highlight, also freshly prepared. The garlic coriander naan is one of the best I’ve ever had. Loved the prawn curry ❤️.
The ambience is beautiful, and the staff are absolutely lovely. Highly recommended!

The Gallows
Cork
01/11/2025: This pub is a real hidden gem without tourists, just locals who know where the true pub spirit lives.
The atmosphere is authentic, warm, and full of character, exactly what you’d expect from a proper neighborhood spot.
I definitely recommend visiting this place and while you’re at it, check out the other great pubs along the same street.
Also a special shout-out to the bartender’s music taste, absolutely on point 🤘
09/08/2025: Hidden gem for me. Living in Cork 43 years and only found it recently! Staff so nice and customers so friendly even though im a blow in from the north side! Ill keep going back there! Great night was had by all!!

Royal Palace
Cork
02/11/2025: I came in for a takeaway and it was one of the best Chinese takeout meals I'd had in ages!
What impressed me most about this visit was the service: I explained that I was a vegan and the waiter straightaway checked that what I wanted had no egg, meat, oyster sauce, and also whether I had allergies.
I got a Vegetable Kung Po and requested it be extra spicy. I could see the guy adding it to my order on the computer: "extra chilli". And boy it was hot!! I loved it. My meal had cashews in it too which I loved.
My wife got Prawn Satay and she was impressed at how many prawns she got (easily 10 big ones in the container). She also got heaps of veges. They weren't skint.
05/10/2025: My order was cancelled because they don’t deliver to the city centre which if fine. Even though it’s 2km from the restaurant. I called to check why it was cancelled and the man who answered was really rude and hung up on me even though I was not pushing back at all. Very disappointing as I was looking forward to trying out their food. Absolutely no need for it!
