The best restaurants in Cork

10/12/2025: Honestly we are so sick of these lads. They are useless. Can’t take simple instructions. Can’t organise their deliveries. A full hour and a half to deliver food from Sheares Street to Shandon street on a Thursday night!!! How is that even possible, you would deliver a parcel to Killarney in that time. The amount of times that I have fallen asleep waiting for them to arrive, it’s actually laughable. Also, food orders are regularly messed up or stuff gets forgotten. Recently we had 3 sausages in our order, and we got 3 cheese & onion pies instead. How thick and lazy do you have to be to get such simple instructions wrong? What amazes me most of all is how much they charge. A takeaway for 2-3 adults including delivery can be over €55. They charge an arm and a leg for their stuff and yet it’s a disgraceful service. Won’t be ordering from them anymore, simply not worth the hassle or the expense of it.

06/12/2025: Ordered food tonight at 9:20 it’s not 11:42 and ye won’t answer the phone it’s a complete joke over two hours and the food is no where to be seen and absolute joke keep hanging up the phone

25/11/2025: I like most of their menu except Pizza. Different strokes4different folks !

23/10/2025: I’ve been ordering food from your place every week, and it’s always been delicious. However, my last two orders were both incorrect. The first time, I decided to just let it go, but the second time, it happened again. I called to report the issue, and your team said they could replace the order — which I appreciated — but the replacement also came spicy, even though I didn’t request that. Later, I received another call saying that the order I returned was actually my original order, and I was even asked to pay for it. That was really disappointing because it clearly wasn’t the dish I always order and enjoy. I’m honestly very disappointed by how this was handled. I don’t think I’ll be ordering again.

20/11/2025: Delivery times are awful, be prepared to wait 2 hours and receive cold food.

13/09/2025: Guys ! Don't waste your money and time This was the worst pizza ive ordered so far, pizza is disgusting, arrived cold too nothing is fresh , garlic bread taste like cardboard and fries just a big NO! I want my money back what a waste

05/07/2025: A spit and sawdust pub with grim toilets but close to Musgrave park.

12/05/2025: would i go back here? No, The Staff were really rude and unhelpful, Saw one of the girls working behind the bar taking a picture of people sitting down from the cameras, A really unprofessional atmosphere to the place, No organization at all to the place especially for Party’s, Wouldn’t recommend

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.

01/09/2025: The food was only okay. The spice bags are flavorful and the curry was good but was in no way fresh. The service took forever as the young lady working the food stall was chatting with what I assume is a friend or off duty coworker who was smoking in front of the ordering station. She was so distracted she left out our vegetable rolls. It could use substantial improvement.

26/08/2025: This is my favorite spot in Cork. It has become tradition for my friends and I to get spice bags here after a night out. The portions are large, the flavor is great (get the satay sauce!!), the price is reasonable, and the staff is always kind and quick when getting the food out. I have not eaten a spice bag that even compares to Wok ‘n’ Roll.

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.

27/10/2025: Food was okay. One member of staff particularly rude, really no need for it. Other staff were pleasant but honestly wouldn’t bother going here unless you’re ready for an eye roll and someone pointing to things grunting rather than responding. You’d be better off driving for 20 minutes somewhere else for a more decent Chinese for less the price. I work in retail and i understand dealing with the public can be shite but there’s a bare minimum level of customer service you should have. (They have tried to remove my review, stand by your service and deal with issues rather than trying to hide them 👍)

03/12/2025: 14€ for 10 inch pizza €1:50 extra for dips nothing special

27/09/2025: The pizza was OK, but the service is horrible. Hire better people.

27/09/2025: €8:40 for two crap flat whites that were scalding hot and just dire.

05/06/2025: We had to explain what a rasher was. Then he took the order after 5 times we repeated the order. After all that he said "now wait" and started serving the next person.

06/10/2025: Filling stations who take your money but do not provide a toilet, do not deserve your support.

12/05/2025: Ok shop - buy tea, coffee food etc but they have no toilet. I will go to a service station in future where they lnow what service is.

02/10/2025: This subway cannot get a delivery order right. Had to order more than once today for an order. First they gave the wrong order and then they gave missing items when we had to re order. We rang the store directly after the first order and the woman we dealt with was just rude and dismissive claiming they never even got our first order.

01/09/2025: This is by far the best Subway my taste buds have ever experienced—absolutely mouthwatering, almost tear-jerkingly amazing. I’ll never forget this day, mainly because yesterday was the worst day of my life. Long after I’m gone dead and buried, my children’s children will know about this place. Mark my words.

08/09/2025: I ordered online. Delicious Pizza. And chips. Fast service. Good Halal option.

19/08/2025: What a fine dining experience! Truly Michelin-star level if the star was made of rotten meat. We only went in ‘cause nothing else was open, and wow… what a mistake. My mate ended up sprinting to the toilet with explosive diarrhea, while I was busy trying not to puke my lungs out. Honestly, I didn’t know food could double as a biological weapon. One star, but only because Google doesn’t let me give negative numbers.

23/09/2025: Waited in a queue to buy something. A woman (who I'm assuming is a worker, because of her uniform. I didn'tget a look of her face but she's short with dark hair) tried to cut in front of me and the rest of the queue. I didn't let her because I was in a huge rush and it would have been unfair to all the people behind me. She called me a swear word beginning with c, under her breath. The cashier refused to speak to me, kept giving me dirty looks, and practically threw my items on the desk. I've worked retail myself and I never usually complain. But the way these workers act is horrific and absolutely unacceptable. I will never be back here.

02/09/2025: Great shop with lots of variety, and the manager and staff are a real credit to the place. One suggestion I’d make is to install anti-bird wire. As a daily user, I (and other bus drivers) have often been hit by bird droppings, which is a real inconvenience. We spend a lot of money here every day, so this improvement would make a big difference to the overall experience.

21/11/2025: Terrible branch. They spare on ingredients but charge extra. €12.5 for few slices of Pepperoni and a sprinkle of bacon with plane chase.

21/10/2025: Arrived at 7.55pm and I was told the place is closing at 7.45pm. I checked on the outside and the opening hours state 8.00pm... if I wasn't hungry I wouldn't have posted it. Anyway, I appreciate ppl want to leave the work early but if it is opened till 8.00 they should serve till 8.00pm!

05/12/2025: Just watched an older guy in supermacs making the food in bare hands after itching three inside of his nose with his thumb, I told him to wear gloves which he did but gross 🤢

15/11/2025: Took 9 mins after the order was placed for staff to start the burgers cooking. No orders before mine so no reason for there to be a delay. 3 staff just milling around doing very little. Manager was “busy” shuffling straws and walking around trying to look rushed off his feet while doing nothing.
