The best restaurants in Cork

31/12/2025: One of my favourite places to go in Cork, such a nice cosy pub

19/08/2025: Old time cork pub, great spot to chill 😎

10/06/2026: Such a lovely meal at Bocelli. The olives were incredibly tasty, and the steak was one of the best we’ve had in a long time. Everything was full of flavour and clearly made with care. We left happy and looking forward to coming back.

10/06/2026: Fantastic experience at Bocelli! The ribeye steak was absolutely amazing — perfectly cooked, juicy, and full of flavor. A special thanks to Gabriel for his excellent service and wine recommendation, which paired beautifully with the steak. Great food, great atmosphere, and outstanding hospitality. Highly recommended, and we’ll definitely be back!

05/12/2025: Top class. Food and service so good.can deal with everyone even when busy and so professional. Great to see a business like this doing so well and great appreciation for most locations as this business expands. Shame 5 points can’t replicate this

28/11/2025: My favourite café! I got the nicest chai latte here this morning, the atmosphere was so cozy. The people working here are always so lovely also.

31/03/2026: Just had a wonderful break at the Montenotte, room was very comfortable and everything needed was available. Breakfast in the panorama lounge was delicious with beautiful views of the city. Drinks in the night overlooking the lights of Cork is wonderful. Staff are very attentive and friendly. The short walk downhill is easy to access the city and it's a very short uphill taxi back. We'll certainly return

25/03/2026: Off busy narrow street, so have a good navigation so you don't miss the entry like we did, as it was a bear to get back here. Otherwise, this has been the best hotel we have stayed while in Ireland so far. The staff and hotels attention to details are top notch. You should not be disappointed!

06/06/2026: Gorgeous, cozy, eclectic cafe! Dog friendly too which is incredible. They have dog treats, dog water bowls and a designated water tap for doggo water refills. The staff are so friendly and the coffee is great. They have lots of sweet treats. I didnt get a chance to look at their full menu. With a park accross the road, this is a great stop to come with you doggo 💚🌿🐾 Thanks Guys ❤️🥰

28/05/2026: Very pleasant, good coffee, terrace, and right across from the lake. I'll be back.

08/10/2025: Really delicious meal. Seafood chowder and cauliflower steak were both excellent. My wife enjoyed her Indian, though the naan was sub par. Nice space too.

05/10/2025: Very nicely decorated. Friendly service. Really tasty food. The signature pie was amazing, as were the glazed root vegetables. Would gladly come back!

07/06/2026: Great atmosphere, staff are sound & juke box for a tune is a great go to!

04/06/2026: It says live music, but there wasn't any yet when we went for a drink. Uncomfortable seating, small cafe.

12/11/2025: Awesome staff with great coffee and the sweet treats are awesome too

09/11/2025: Amazing coffee, and the warm chocolate croissant, omg, delicious 😋

02/05/2026: Finally an authentic japanese experience. Been craving for nigiri and i'm so glad that i found this place!

22/04/2026: Delicious food, fresh fish, and the staff service was very good.

16/11/2025: Popped in here for a quick pint last month. Best pint of Guinness I've had in years.

21/10/2025: Awesome! Beer was good price! The company was great. I can from California to visit my family roots down in Cork. I told those there at the pud, and Eugene gave me a Cork flag! Thank you Eugene!

05/10/2025: Amazing place for delicious small plates and fantastic wines. Really great for trying new wines! Staff are so friendly and go above and beyond also.

20/09/2025: Great for a pre theatre drink and nibbles

24/12/2025: Such a great selection. Lovely chilled out cafe with friendly staff.

30/11/2025: Gorgeous shop and teas. Was extremely accommodating for an initial misplaced order now their Dreamcatcher tea is an integral part of my nighttime routine. Their products are high quality, well priced, and delivered with excellent service. Highly recommended.

29/10/2025: One of the best coffees in Cork. Quick and friendly service. Fiúntas pasties.

07/10/2025: What a lovely setup and really nice staff. And for once the green tea wasn’t a rip off as it is in most coffee houses. Recommended

22/10/2025: Pie Guys was such a delightful experience. They were closed at the English Market because they were sold out, so we wandered down to the Black Market, and I’m so glad we did. IT WAS CLASS. The buttery crust, the perfect mash, the filling, the amazing dill slaw. This was a must stop, making it a plan for tomorrow as well. You will not be disappointed.

18/10/2025: Having grown up with a mum who was a pastry chef and confectioner and has since passed, I’ve had the best of the best… but having seen these lads and the pies they create I said I’d have to try it and see does it stack up.. all I can say is YES… I was instantly transported back to my youth with the quality of the pastry.. and the filling, omg something to die for.. thank you for giving me a little taste of my youth after a bad week of missing my mum it really put a smile on my face!!! We will be back!

25/09/2025: Lovely coffee, very staff. Nice spot for a cup with a friend.

19/08/2025: Good cofee in a morning -good vibe for all day<3
