Quigleys Cafe, Bakery & Deli
Cork
14/11/2025: I came for their sourdough loaf only to be told it is only for sandwiches made there! I used to be able to buy and enjoy this wonderful bread before.
Ridiculous!
09/11/2025: I would like to express my appreciation for the excellent service I received at the café. I felt genuinely well looked after, and they were attentive at all times. Because of this, I decided not only to stay for breakfast, but also to remain longer and have lunch there as well. Megan, the waitress, was incredibly attentive, and the young man at the till was very kind to us.

Wilton Willow
Cork
29/12/2025: The fried rice looks boiled and hard absolutely horrible, the chicken curry has cheap fatty bits of chicken. They used to be nice years ago, defo not anymore.
13/11/2025: This is literally the worst Chinese food I have ever tasted in my life. €50 for chicken fried rice, chips, a spice box and chicken balls. The chicken fried rice literally tasted of nothing, it may aswell have been boiled rice. Spice box had very very little flavour tasted like they sprinkled a bit of salt on. I honestly can’t believe how much it lacked flavour, the whole order was absolutely appalling.

Donnelly's
Cork
01/10/2025: I bought battered sausage and batter burger and chips the batter was still raw and undercooked the pork sausage and burger were stale the meat smelled rotten
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.

Shake Dog
Cork
19/01/2026: This location is rocking joes. It looks awful inside, left out sandwiches for what looks like hotel guests and is cash only. We left and didn’t eat
01/12/2025: Shocking food and worse service. Ordered from justeat and when food arrived we were missing one of the milkshakes. When we called them to say this, he first started off saying they only do take out so it couldn't have been them. When advised it was their address on the receipt he then said it wasn't their problem and that the delivery driver must have wanted it. No offer to replace. Food was stale and cheapest of the cheap ingredients

Jaye Taylor
Cork
10/12/2025: In some month the restaurant change a lot. The last time that I went (6 months ago) was a completely disaster. But when I returned I was pleasantly surprised, the menu change. I will return
22/11/2025: If it were possible to give a –5 rating, that’s what they would deserve. Recently went there with my son — the Caesar salad took about 30 minutes to prepare, it looked nice but tasted bad, and the bread was moldy. In the end they just said “sorry” and brought different bread, and we still paid full price... I wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone — for 22 euros you can eat something much better in any other café.

Dinos
Cork
01/12/2025: they seem to have undocumented folk working the counter now so maybe allow a little extra time for ordering and collecting!
24/09/2025: Usually don’t leave a review, but got a breast and a bun and it was cold inside, you could tell it was sitting there for a while. I live around the corner so didn’t expect it to be like that when I got home (5 mins) Disappointed because it’s usually good

Golden House

01/01/2026: Ordered a spice bag on Just Eat at 8pm was waiting until 9:30 for it. Rang them to check in if it’s on the way and the woman on the phone sounded like she could be able for it. Saying my Food was still in the takeaway. Never ordering from here again. Avoid
14/11/2025: Top notch, ready in 20 mins and piping hot! One of the best.

Apache Pizza
Cork
04/01/2026: Terrible experience, Order took an hour and a half to arrive for delivery, the food was missing half of a meal and what did arrive was cold and thrown together. Ended up getting thrown in the bin.
The staff were also extremely rude over the phone. DO NOT GO HERE
02/01/2026: Shocking, delivery took horribly long, saying delivered when took further 15mins to arrive, chips not cooked, no curry sauce on the chips, cold…. Do not use this one!

Ginzeng
Cork
29/12/2025: It's okay really not too good and not bad the food tastes amazing though but the service is simply meh
02/11/2025: The food, the staff, and the portion sizes were all excellent everything was great! Definitely recommend it.
There’s a lovely lady working behind the counter who’s so welcoming and genuinely wants to make sure your container is full such a nice touch.
One small note: the young couple behind the counter should be a bit more mindful of their surroundings while working, as they were being affectionate with each other. It can come across as unprofessional in front of customers.

Wok'n'Roll Grand Parade
Cork
28/12/2025: The Farm Boy Burger was amazing until they changed the fried egg to a boiled egg, it just doesn’t taste as good and the thicker boiled egg is awkward to eat as well.
14/12/2025: I really love the spice cone and chicken cheese rolls. Only ordered fried rice with curry for once and they aren’t fresh, the oil has a rancid taste. The servers are nice.
