The best restaurants in Cork

15/01/2026: Absolutely Gorgeous Food 😋 Wow !!! Just Wow 🤤 yummy, yummy 💯 Affordable prices too 👌🏻 Absolutely recommend 🙃 Ty for reading 🫶🏻

14/01/2026: Really good food served here, different types of burritos (wrapped, bowls, etc), and different meat types (including vegetarian). The staff are lovely to deal with, and are helpful when you ask questions with the food, making good suggestions. Servings are plenty big, and everything can be customized to just how you want it. The seating is okay upstairs, maybe not too suitable for thise with limited mobility, as the seats are more like benches, so you have to be able to lift your legs up and over to sit. Additionally the stairs are quite steep going up and down, and the stairs to the 2nd floor with the bathrooms has a loose handrail, and the floor boards are split and the steps quite uneven, so big caution is needed! Moreover (at least for the men's bathroom), they are in a not too good condition. They are clean, every time I have been there, but the hand dryer is broken, the soap is often empty, and singular stall door cannot close and has to be left open, and the light in the stall does not work, so you NEED the door open haha. Overall amazing value for the food, but the seating choices and restroom conditions should be addressed.

15/11/2025: We will definitely eat here again to try more of their dishes. Really tasty & reasonably priced. Portions are pretty spot on too. Server was lovely and helpful as we’d not been there before.

10/11/2025: Delicious food, good price, friendly stuff😊

23/12/2025: A little haven in the heart of the city

21/12/2025: Extremely overpriced...5 euro for a regular oat milk latte. The coffee id fine if generic.....I've had stronger instant coffee. I also got a muffin and ig must have been a few days ikdbas it was a little stale.

21/12/2025: Used to be unreal but has fallen off the last few times I've had it.

25/11/2025: Seems expensive for loaded fries but personally I think it’s great value considering it’s all fresh and keeps you so full and very generous with the meat portion also something different to your average chips place with its funky flavours highly recommend

02/01/2026: Lovely place for a group dinner/lunch or outings. The food was nice, music is a bit loud for my taste, but I know everyone is different. We had a lovely Christmas party there. Recommended.

04/12/2025: A very overpriced bar, the draught beer is exceedingly expensive and not great quality. It is hard to get a bad pint of stout these days, however the courtyard consistently manages to. Food is expensive and nothing special.

10/07/2025: Very clean and tidy, efficient and polite staff, dividers in place and a good range of items to choose from.

10/05/2025: Great cafe, excellent staff. Reasonably price, good variety.

06/12/2025: The food here is amazing I love the crispy fried beef and the beef fried rice - worth going out of your way for!

08/11/2025: Very nice food, Trisha is always welcoming and polite 🤗 I love to eat here.

09/11/2025: Really expensive and loads of annoying teenagers inside.

17/09/2025: The girl serving behind the counter was unfriendly, as if she didn’t want to be there and didn’t want to serve us. The milk was served in it’s original 2L jug and again just thrown there almost with words to the effect, if you want some milk here you go. The toilets had just been cleaned but they never replaced the soap and the soap dispenser was completely empty. All of this when the café was practically empty and the staff had not much to do. Never going back there again.

21/12/2025: Came here for a family gathering, waiting staff good, attentive. Party of six, my order didn’t appear for 15-20 minutes after the other five orders. For me this is poor form and while they did apologise there wasn’t an explanation given. The food itself is fine it’s a safe menu but the seasoning is limited to salt and pepper and it was very much a soft texture diet lacking in much variety of texture. Prawns limp and most definitely over cooked.

21/12/2025: No joy with booking online so took a chance as a walk in..they found us a table no problem we just had soup and sandwich..very tasty,our server brilliant..maybe French chap..very enjoyable ❤️

06/09/2025: A small Chinese takeaway that's been in business for quite some time sends a lot of food to the North Side; some customers like it, others don't, but that's the case everywhere. I tried it and liked it; hit the spot: beef in black pepper sauce. The beef was good, and all the other sides were like fried rice.

02/04/2025: The lads have no clue what’s going on they’re trying their best , but Sebastian is taking way too long with my order.

31/03/2025: I wasn't very happy because when I ordered I paid extra for meat.I got two corners of prons for €4 I will never go to you, they are robbing you of your food. I'm not alone, my friend, you want to complain about not enough meat?

25/10/2025: Coffee was nice to be fair ,but the staff are horrid ! I bought 2 capuchinos and one latte from the cafe Marius .As I was drinking my coffee me and my mother pulled out a muffin we had from earlier (to match to me coffee I just bought ) I got screamed at by the staff that it’s not allowed to bring personal food even tho I bought 3 coffees from them just 2 mins earlier.Disgusting attitude

05/06/2025: Had the beef stew cooked to perfection reasonably priced will be back

14/12/2025: Wow, a real french bakery in Cork. So tasty, and various choice of delishes.

27/11/2025: It was just okay for what I ordered, but there were other things that looked good, it was on my way, I might go back tomorrow and improve the review and the experience.

27/07/2025: Excellent. One of the hotel mistakes of the trip.

24/07/2025: I recently stayed at this hotel, and I have to say, the staff was a major letdown. From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was bothering them. The front desk staff (Martha) seemed uninterested and gave off the vibe that they'd rather be anywhere else. Throughout my stay, I encountered similar attitudes from other staff members. Requests were met with delays, and it felt like pulling teeth to get any kind of assistance. It's a shame because the hotel itself had potential, but the poor service really dragged down the whole experience. I won't be returning, and I'd advise others to consider other options where the staff actually cares about their guests. We had tried to complain to the manager Joe about the attitude of his staff, he told us “customers like you are not worth being customers”.

05/11/2025: Externally friendly staff. Nice to have a chat and a laugh with. Great tasting coffee and yummy treats. Thanks guys! ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

11/10/2025: there is one guy that works there and holds the whole place up. He's been there for a long time now and I've seen him be the only consistent face there in the last three years. he is absolutely lovely and can't do enough for you , that's only reason you get a second star. for him alone. unfortunately , He wasn't there today when I went instead two employees with their back turned to me completely ignoring me when I asked for something for my order it was a no no sorry we don't have it and no didn't bother to look just NO! I love my other Starbucks this one is trash. the rude guy there today ... just NO
