Caffe Misto
Cork
02/07/2025: This is our place to drink our coffee, we like they give us a card and we can get a free one occasionally. I don't understand why they can't let us have a cold coffee for free like they do with the hot coffees. Also they should ask if we are drinking in there or to take out. We get plastic recipients when we are staying in the place, it should be nice to have the right one when we are in the area.

Cameron Bakery
Cork
03/09/2025: We needed to grab a quick brekkie since we had a long drive to the Cliffs of Moher. I found Cameron Bakery on Google Maps, and saw they had sausage rolls, which we wanted to try. It's a small spot that looks kind of dingy. I ordered a latte and two sausage rolls. The sausage was small and basic, and the pastry was dry. On top of that, each one was €4! Totally not worth it. On a different day, I found a sausage roll at a SuperValu for less than €1 and that one tasted way better than the one at this bakery. The latte was fine. So if you're desperate for something, you can get a coffee here but skip the food - at least the sausage roll.
25/08/2025: Absolutely tasteless sandwich and rolls.

The Brasserie
Cork
10/05/2025: Had a delicious Saturday lunch and wonderful service by our waiter Thabo. Attended to quickly and loved the menu options.
But the state of the restaurant toilets and aesthetics for a 4star hotel was appalling hence my low rating. The restaurant chairs were old and stained and the toilets were worse than a public toilet.
The food was really the saving grace but the dining experience itself wasn’t great
22/04/2025: Buzzing place was mostly full so it took about 10mins for someone attend us. I went with family and was seated on a place which seemed to have segregated as a family space which was ok.
I ordered vegan pizza which was a big let down the pizza was not cooked properly and cheese was not melted even 50p.c. chicken croquettes and garlic bread was ok but given the price I would have atleast expected it to be good. The main highlight was the sauce given for chicken chimchurri which was excellent and recommended
The person in the bar was very good and did excellent job.

Wilton Willow
Cork
08/06/2025: I had the shredded chicken and unfortunately it was way too salty – it really overpowered the dish and just wasn’t enjoyable. That said, the service was great and the atmosphere was lovely, so it wasn’t a complete letdown. Overall, 3 stars.
25/05/2025: Food a bit dull - oversweetened sauces, otherwise not much to taste.

Lennox's
Cork
28/08/2025: Chips €5. Battered sausage €3. So basically over €10 for a sausage, chips and a drink. Total extortion and not worth it considering how average the food is
31/07/2025: Leftover from 3 weeks fish&chips and was hard feel like I broke my teeth.
First and last time
Never call again

Hillbillys
Cork
14/05/2025: I had a snack box deal yesterday, and the chicken was brilliant! The fries were brilliant, and the food was hot and ready! I like eating here all the time, and hopefully I come back here next week in the future! 👍👍
22/03/2025: Ridiculous. Ordered two meals and arrived home and was missing chips. Won’t be back. It’s not that hard to get a simple order correct

Ali Baba
Cork
11/08/2025: I've ordered doner kebab meal which was a very disappointing. The meat was too thick and old, no taste at all like jelly and there is no garlic or any sauce in it. Never ever reccomend this place.
01/08/2025: I placed a large delivery order and was severely disappointed. The pizza was squished and damaged ( the delivery biker had dropped it and squashed it with his bike) and still delivered it in it's awful state. The kebabs were inedible, the charcoal grill was burnt. The chips were also squashed by the delivery driver. Appalling service. The delivery driver was blaming the shop the shops blaming the driver. Not good enough as I wasted my hard earned money on inedible low quality food.i had guests over that had nothing to eat and had to reorder from elsewhere due to the quality of the food.

Lemon Tree
Cork
09/07/2025: In my opinion, this is the best spicy bag in Cork. Presentation wise, lemon tree spicy bag is in a snack box, which is nicer, other places just put into a bag. Price is also cheaper than other places. Chicken is tender and not that dry compared to other places.
Cash only though but you can go to Galvins Carry Out nearby to get cash.
02/07/2025: Pub qui fait restaurant (attention, c’est pas noté devant, faut entrer).
Très bon rapport qualité prix, ambiance sympa, on y est retourné 2 soirs de suite.

La Calavera
Cork
20/08/2025: Meat is slightly underseasoned and slightly too dry. Portions are decent. The overall meal is very dry because there is a lack of sauce, even though I had sour cream and salsa in it. There is not many flavours really as the balance between components is lacking. Ingredients however seem to be off decent quality.
26/07/2025: Got the quesadilla in here was lovely and good value. Plenty cheese and chicken would recommend it!! 😁

Golden House
Cork
20/05/2025: Ordered from here recently again after leaving Cork years ago. Was pleasantly surprised at how tasty it was. Loved it.
01/04/2025: Disgusting and disgraceful pain in my jaws from chewing the food and the curry was made from dirty dishwater

Donnelly's
Cork
31/07/2025: The chipper is by no means bad and I come here from time to time but I was here recently and I have say the service left me annoyed and feeling short changed.
The price advertised for a burger and chip was €6.95 and when I handed in my €10 the change I was given was €3.
I know its only 5 cents but if their prices say €6.95 I expect €3.05 back.
I doubt I would have been charged anything more than €6.95 if I had used my debit card.
Giving your customers their correct change matters!!
The other thing that annoyed me, and while I was ok with the outcome, I found the lack of asking problematic.
I personally enjoy salt and vinegar on my chips however, I know a lot of people don't.
When the staff member was serving the customer ahead of me he poured the batch of chips into the tray and asked the customer ahead if they wanted salt and vinegar to which they said yes, the staff member proceeded to dress the chips accordingly and served them.
Then when it was my turn the staff member just bagged the remaining chips in the tray and gave them to me without asking if I wanted salt and vinegar or not.
As I said, it made no difference as I personally like salt and vinegar however, many people don't and I found this to be unprofessional.
I would suggest that the owner and staff need to review their business practices.

Curry House
Cork
05/07/2025: I stumbled upon Curry House last week, and I’m so glad I did! The food is absolutely amazing. The onion rings were crispy and golden, and the curry sauce on the chicken skewers was rich, nutty, and full of flavor. You can tell everything is freshly cooked. Definitely my new go-to for a treat!
26/05/2025: Placed an order on Deliveroo, order was accepted by the restaurant - 5 minutes later I received a call from Deliveroo that the order was cancelled by the restaurant as it is outside their delivery zone. It is a 12 minute drive away and they are currently still accepting orders to the same location on their website and Deliveroo? Now I have to wait 5 days for a refund, instead of them not accepting orders to places they “don’t deliver” and then changing their minds.

Donatellos
Cork
04/04/2025: I know if I’m writing here that it’s BAD! Genuinely worst pizza I’ve ever tasted - it had no taste apart from salt and oil - genuinely horrendous- ordered two “dip” under the “dips/sauce” section and paid 2.50€ for a “cheese” and “bbq” - received grated cheese in a small tub - sorry but where is the dip? What in gods earth do I need 2.50 of grated cheese in a tiny pot for? I have a block of cheese here - I ordered a sauce! And the bbq tasted so sour - it was bloody awful! I am so angry as we ordered this for a birthday at our house and what we got for 40€ was not worth 20 - the Chicken in the pitta was ok but tasted cheap- we ordered this food at 5:05 and it was ready for delivery at 5:15 - some people might be happy with that but I don’t think food of good quality can come out that fast and taste good and this CERTAINLY did not . People work hard for their money and expect at least something half decent . The delivery driver was professional and we tipped him but will never order again. We had wanted to order from there for months but kept putting it off because it’s expensive . Seriously try your own food .
01/03/2025: Only place we could find open in Douglas got a burger did the job a bit plain but ok when you had nothing else chips were nice pizza good

Cameron Bakery
Cork
30/07/2025: The cakes here are great. I got a lemon meringue and it was the best I ever had. Definitely worth a stop if you’re nearby. Staff are lovely too.
05/07/2025: Lovely area, but food was not great, staff ok, but also not the best. Go across the road.
