Starbucks
Cork
07/02/2026: I came today for my birthday. I've had a really tough year, especially the days leading up to today, and the manager refused to give me the discount because it wasn't showing up on their computer. She told me to email Starbucks. I left crying. I used to go to that location regularly, and just because of this bad experience, I won't be going back.
04/01/2026: I visited this Starbucks on Opera Lane today hoping to order a Toffee Nut Latte, but it wasn’t available and the alternative options I asked for were also unavailable. I eventually ordered a regular latte.
While waiting, I overheard some of the staff talking loudly about customers just ordering lattes now that other drinks weren’t available, which felt uncomfortable and a bit unprofessional.
Unfortunately, the latte itself was extremely bitter and unpleasant — it was basically impossible to drink. It tasted as if the filter or machine hadn’t been properly changed or cleaned, which was very disappointing considering I paid €5 for it.

Ramen
Cork
03/03/2026: My partner and I have been coming here regularly and it never disappoints. The food is very reasonably priced and always super tasty. The staff are attentive, friendly, and create a welcoming atmosphere every time even if super busy.
Our special compliments go to the store manager, Jay. He consistently notices the small details that others might overlook and ensures that everything runs smoothly while maintaining a warm and organized environment. His attentiveness and natural leadership are clearly reflected in the team’s attitude.
What stands out most is his thoughtful and composed approach. He leads with confidence, fairness, and genuine care — qualities that are valuable. One can see that he takes pride in his work and sets high standards, not through pressure, but through example.
It’s truly refreshing to see such professionalism combined with authenticity. Jay is a real asset, and his dedication does not go unnoticed.
Thanks again Ramen.
18/02/2026: They gave me Ed Sheeran’s ball sack hair

McDonald's
Cork
04/05/2026: I don't know why you're running such aggressive ads about not tolerating bad customer behavior. I come here to eat, not to be yelled at by someone on the radio.
27/04/2026: This is probably the worst McDonald's. It's better to close it.

Poppa Bills Ballypehane
Cork
04/04/2026: I come here all the time and the food has always been amazing, which is why I keep coming back. Recently, though, I’ve noticed some changes, especially with the burgers and the pizza. The pizza base, in particular, seems soggier than before and has a slightly unusual texture.
That being said, the staff are absolutely fantastic. They’re always so welcoming and make you feel genuinely valued, which really adds to the experience. I’m hoping the food quality returns to what it used to be, because this place has always been a favourite of mine.
09/01/2026: Flavourless, greasy and expensive! Give it a chance, Never again!!

The Quays Bar Tapas & Grill
Cork
15/03/2026: On maps said it is open. However it was closed. Sunday 14:00
27/12/2025: My daughter & I visited the Quays bar today & had food that was reasonably good. Unfortunately the place was absolutely filthy, our shoes were sticking to the floor. Toilets were disgusting & absolutely filthy with no toilet roll & when we asked we were told there was none. I dread to think what the kitchen was like.

Maldron Hotel Shandon Cork City
Cork
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”.

Country Grill Chicken
Cork
27/02/2026: Amazing chicken , friendly staff , ill be back !
22/02/2026: Hello, I have always been very satisfied with your chicken. I appreciate that you do things like grilling it outdoors. However, the last two Sundays in Carrigaline, I purchased chicken and it was not cooked properly; the bone was still red with blood. I wanted to bring this to your attention.

O'Reilly's Fish & Chips
Cork
08/11/2025: Decided to try here for a change (too lazy to drive) as we normally get Dennys, which is only ever top class in both service and quality. Ordered the food at 6PM and it arrives at 8.40PM.. Tried ringing multiple times after an hour and a half only to be hung up. Won't be trying again
08/11/2025: Still waiting 2 hours for a delivery (that now says complete online) but no sign of food, tried ringing and seem to also be hanging up the phone.

Murphy's Chip Bar
Cork
24/04/2026: Proper Northside chipper. Chunky chips made from real potatoes, none of that frozen crap. Generous portions and they do mushy pea pies! What more could you want?!
21/04/2026: Great food and a great crew. Keeping on my uncle John's old business. Well done folks.
