The best restaurants in Cork

05/10/2025: From a local bank to a local café! This friendly spot offers good wholesome food, scones & coffee off the beaten track. Good stop off option if transiting via Cork northside. Can be busy at peak times.

28/09/2025: Excellent breakfast in bread!!! Nice staff!!! Thank you!!!

30/09/2025: Staff is really friendly!! We enjoyed our time there.

04/08/2025: My favorite cafe in the UK and Ireland!!!

26/09/2025: We loved to go to Dashi and it was our go-to takeaway in COVID times. I ordered for collection on a Thursday evening at 7pm, half of the sushi options were gone and the curry and udon noodle dishes (or at least parts thereof) were heated in a microwave, and it still took them 25 minutes to put the order together. The dishes lacked veggies and where mediocre at best, and I couldn't finish the seaweed salad. Very disappointed.

18/09/2025: Visited the place just for the first time, as I saw they have a lot of great reviews, and variety of options, but unfortunately were disappointed, as many of the ingredients weren’t just included. They show in the menu that the sushi has variety of ingredients, and a lot of interesting stuff like: asparagus, chive, chilli powder, and so, but unfortunately they just used instead of the asparagus the curcumber, and we had no chives or chilli powder, although we should have had😟 Also the trout sushi we had was half raw/and half cooked👀

16/04/2026: Amazing staff, food was lovely.

18/02/2026: Quite a nice little spot, have been here for a couple of private events recently. Good service and reasonably priced

21/11/2025: Any time we come in here lately for lunch or breakfast, I get mine relatively fast but my partner has been waiting 20minutes after I get mine. So I’m all done before hers comes out. What’s the point in having lunch together if it ends up we don’t have our lunch together, the place isn’t even that busy and other people that come in after us have gotten served before hers comes. If it was the odd time you would get over it but has become a regular occurrence so it’s disgrace really and we decided we won’t be coming here again.

02/11/2025: Best omelette in Ireland I ever had

02/11/2025: Edited as it's my second day in a row getting this. The food is absolutely top notch and some of the most reasonably priced food around with amazing taste! They even do a vegan beef burger which is so so nice and the curry and satay dishes I've had are also 10/10! Staff are friendly too so 10/10 to the staff as well!

23/10/2025: Rude reception. Got burger and chips with no sachet sauce. I had in a takeaway but was waiting for someone to pick me up when I decided to check my bag and have a few chips. But she yelled ‘u can’t eat here!’ I didn’t order for dine in. All I wanted was to sit for few minutes while waiting for my pickup. Why should a food service be unwelcoming? I didn’t have appetite to eat my food after such rudeness.

20/07/2025: I ordered the "kebab box" from this establishment and got a small box mostly filled with chips. I returned to the shop to tell them I didn't order chips and that chips were not in the description of the "kebab box" only to be told that of course chips are included in the kebab box. Doesn't seem logical to me, would avoid.

26/03/2026: 22nd Sunday night I was met at the door by security man Stephen Crowley, an was told that I couldn’t come in because I apparently stole a glass, when I was drinking vodka rasa (a drink I never drink) as I work in a bar myself an see the outcome of the drink I was never drown to ever buy one, so for him to accuse me of stealing a glass is very unprofessional, I rarely come to Reardans an will probably not come back for a long while if the bouncers love to make up lies for so entry

28/02/2026: Met Conor, Darren & Britney tonight they were absolutely brilliant to me & my partner visiting Cork for the weekend! Made us feel right at home and went over and above for us. Great bar, will be back !

20/04/2026: why did u take the pitta off the menu the chilli one? i realy liked it it was my favourite and now its gone. Can you please bring it back soon :( i like all ur other food too tho dont worry just want the chilli pitta back

28/12/2025: Donatello is a great spot for a tasty meal, with well-prepared food and a relaxed, welcoming vibe.

01/10/2025: Amazing vibe and people, the concert was super

17/08/2025: Sian really made my birthday. A True queen. We love here

18/11/2025: Very good prices. I've been going to akira for a while now, when I want some comfort food and something that is not that expensive and fancy. The girls upstairs are amazing and give you a proper japanese experience. There are some amazing dishes like the ramen, it's not that easy to find a heavy and comfy ramen like in Akira. Usually I feel Japanese restaurants have become something superfancy that don't make you feel like home. Everything is about the rules and about expensive sushi, but Akira goes beyond that. Akira takes the typical Japanese experience and brings it to your table for a really good price. To put an example the sake is something that goes for 40€ minimum in most japanese restaurants. If I remember right, you can have bottles of Sake for less than 25 euros in Akira.And even Wine. But not only focusing on the prices .Overall Akira has made me feel like the place to go, when I'm not sure what I want and never failed for a second. Thanks to all the staff.

30/10/2025: Delicious Japanese food, super friendly service, and a sensational atmosphere; for anyone who enjoys Asian cuisine like me, this restaurant is an excellent choice!

22/03/2026: Great shop, handy location. Pitty about current fuel prices but it's out of their control.. staff are friendly and facilities are spotless

16/02/2026: Noce place for sweet tooth's ❤️

18/12/2025: Had the most delicious pizza here recently, and the garlic bread was divine! The staff are so friendly, its such a lovely cosy pub with a really nice atmosphere. Will definately be back👍

15/12/2025: Great spot on your way to Pairc Uí Chaoimh or the Marquee!
