Allihies Copper Café
Cork
02/08/2025: Interesting museum. It's very small and contains a lot of exhibits – unfortunately, many of them without any explanations. For example, at the entrance, there are many photos on a screen, but the information is lacking. Overall, the museum could use at least twice as much space, and the exhibition needs to be made much more user-friendly.
It's very noisy in the space (a former church).
The café is nice, with delicious cakes and friendly staff. There's a small garden with a pond at the back.
25/07/2025: Didn't actually visit the museum just went in for lunch. The cafe is excellent. I did walk many of the mining trails and the information plaques were very good.

Bombay Palace

27/07/2025: Llegué tarde un domingo por la noche y fueron acomodados rápidamente. Bonita bandeja de pepinillos, aunque NO chutney de mango o pepinillo de lima. Se servían tuberías calientes y porciones de buen tamaño. Servicio durante la comida fue atento.

Amicus
Cork
17/07/2025: I had lunch today curry wasn't bad we decided to have dessert a crumble
It was slopped into a bowl with cold custard presentation was scandlous.!!!
Desserts are so expensive now it would need to be better... would definitely never have again
16/07/2025: Overpriced poor quality food.
I review a lot of places and am always happy to give praise where it’s due but really there is nothing good to be said about this venue. The service was bad and the food was worse.
Plenty other options in the city.

Curraheen Park Greyhound Stadium
Cork
12/08/2025: A great experience if you're traveling. The entry prices aren't bad, and there are races about every 20 minutes. There's a good atmosphere, mostly groups of men, but also families.
There's an outdoor option and a glass-enclosed interior. You can eat there for a reasonable price, and if you're up for it, you can easily place bets.
29/07/2025: Our ticket voucher paid for a drink and a bet. The races were delayed by 1 hour due to the heat of July. Majority of the staff were very pleasant. Excellent experience.

Salt
Cork
27/07/2025: A really great place in an unexpected location. On the way to Live at the Marquee. Friendly staff who take great care of you as a guest.
17/07/2025: Last Saturday morning I took my friend to the restaurant for breakfast for her birthday. The weather was perfect, and we were seated outdoors, it was the kind of morning that makes you feel grateful just to be there. We ordered coffees and soon after, our food. The food did take about 40 minutes to arrive, but we didn’t mind too much at the time since we were enjoying a relaxed conversation.
Unfortunately, things took a turn. About 10 minutes after our meals arrived, a waiter came over and let us know our table had been reserved for other guests and we would need to leave in less than 30 minutes. He explained that the waitress had forgotten to mention this earlier. There was no offer to move us to a different table. It felt rushed and awkward, I genuinely lost my appetite.
About 15 minutes later, the waitress, who was lovely and very apologetic, came back and kindly offered to move us to the side chairs so she could prepare the table for the next guests. We couldn't go inside because we had a dog with us and we totally understood that. We agreed, but sitting there we no longer felt welcome, and I couldn’t enjoy the rest of the meal. I ended up taking it with me, paid, and we quietly left.
It’s a shame how the situation was handled, it left us disappointed, especially considering it was a special morning.
