The best restaurants in Cork

23/03/2026: We were looking for some food after the cinema and found here. The lady taking the order was really lovely and the food was excellent and very good value. The interior needs some renovation.

30/11/2025: We got €50 food delivered from here tonight. It was genuinely awful. Like truly inedible. The breast of chicken curry was tasteless and paste like with "chicken" with a spongey, disgusting texture. Salt N Pepper chicken was like pork scratchings. Chicken Chow Fan was vile. Slimy and just grim. Thai basil stir fry was terrible. The chips and boiled rice were acceptable.

21/02/2026: I went in 1:18AM to order a pizza but Mohammed said in the shop they are closed. My question is why advertise open until 1:30 AM if they don’t serve nearly 15 minutes before closing time. Even he doesn’t asked what I would like…. Very bad experience, I was a regular costumer. I never will go back!!!

01/05/2026: Really friendly staff. Pizza was lovely. Definitely recommend

05/04/2026: Found this place half full but lively and quickly grabbed a table grabbed a beer for myself and a drink menu for my wife and they told me they were not allowed to make drinks even though there were 4 guys doing nothing behind the bar. Boss came by so asked him and said they were too busy. 1st time I heard that. Lovely place inside and looks fun. Didn't eat food but it looks good. Just DO NOT COME if you want anything but beer

07/09/2025: Really really disappointing place in general. The interior was quite dingy and stuffy. The place looks quite careless thrown together with random stuff on the walls and a pool table that it is not in use. A group and I tried to watch an Irish soccer game there one night. The commentary was 5 seconds behind the visuals and one of the screens was glitching. The women insisted everyone at our table bought something when actually 4 out of 5 of us bought something. She was quite rude, blunt and ill mannered. It really made us feel uncomfortable, unwanted and unappreciated. Out of the 100s of great pubs in Cork, this is definitely one of the to avoid.

18/07/2025: Though I've never been a customer of this bar. The auld one who runs the bar needs to realise that the bar does not own the parking space outside the bar and by placing kegs outside the premises, does not mean that the general public cannot park there. The woman who works there shouting abuse at me last week which was totally uncalled for.

03/05/2026: I have bad experience yesterday I bought Thai red curry & red Tom kha gai soup & I could not tell difference between them. Thai red curry did not felt like curry & consistency was almost wali to soup. I most of the time eat here, but I was very disappointed with the curry standard. Hope you take this recommendation & improve the curry consistency.

11/12/2025: They have got some unique tasting food here,i like!

25/11/2025: I had the regular brest in the bin meal and I have to say for such a big food chain the chips were very few, a small amount of chips on a little paper bag. I think it may be only this outlet as chips from other hillbillys were a fill little bag and more. Honestly for such a cheap item I can't understand how they get away with serving chips that you could count out. The brest in the bun was nice could have done with a little more sauce. The onion rings were ok batter was a bit oily instead of crispy. Then there is the extra charge for any thing that comes with Coca Cola like a sugar tax. Another sneaky way of hiking up the price of meals. As for he service it was pleasant, quick and professional from the young member of staff. That was about the only positive experience. As for the meal over all it was not value for money.

06/10/2025: Love Hillbillies in general, love the Chicken and gravy in particular, usually its very nice unless chicken is left under the heat lamp to long and drys out. Was in Mahon today and ordered a Burger Meal and 3 Tenders meal, server put me in for a Burger Meal and 3 tenders which I didn't know as still cost 24 euro, but when I highlighted I was missing items server says I only paid for 3 tenders, so to purchase the other items I hadd to pay for separately for the chips, drink and dip which ended up costing me more money than it would of as a meal because the server got the order wrong in the first place.

07/05/2026: Tasty quick bite. Seating is limited and very compact. I was practically on top of the table next to me. Very busy but the staff were nice and efficient. Goats cheese and tomato quiche was very good.

24/02/2026: Staff are amazing here and the coffee is too!

14/02/2026: Very disappointed hard lumpy rice ordered red Curry got potatoes veg and soy sauce.. big thumbs down 👎

28/01/2026: Korean wings lovely flavour. Very generous portion. But meat on the wings very over cooked. Depends on what your in to I guess. But I went in here to get ramen. The place is called ramen. So I ordered ramen. Do not come here if you want ramen. Came with potatoes and rice. No ramen noodles. Bowl filled with cheap burnt dark soy sauce. No dept or flavour at all. No acidity, sweetness , spice, garlic, onion or ginger flavour to it all. I rarely leave reviews but I really think this place needs help.

23/04/2026: This place has fresh to order, healthy DELICIOUS food! My daughters loved the soup, and i love the stir-fry. Fast and friendly service and reasonable prices too. Favorite spot in the neighbourhood!

04/04/2026: Quite disappointed by the food here. Way too salty.

07/09/2025: Don’t know difference between latte and cappuccino

07/09/2025: I had a strawberry milkshake, It was disgusting, too much milk no strawberry flavour at all, Very liquidity, never going there again The staff were fairly stressed out, Not a great atmosphere there , €10 for two cold drinks, Ridiculous!

14/04/2026: Fabulous really enjoyed it. Would definitely go back. Food was amazing. The room could do with a fresh clean.

01/12/2025: I’ve never left a google review before but the chicken in this place was so bad I feel obligated to warn anybody else who tries ordering from here to Stay Away. I got the ginger and spring onion chicken and it was genuinely inedible and cost nearly 13 quid.
