The Rock
Cork
06/01/2026: The Rock Pub is a super cozy spot with a beautiful interior. It gives strong medieval vibes, almost like stepping into an old Irish inn.
We went on a weekday, so it was quiet and peaceful—perfect if you want to relax. They’ve got a pool table and even a piano, and the seating near the fireplace is especially nice.
They also offer discounts on certain beers through a card system. With the card, three beers cost €13 instead of €18, which is a great deal.
Overall, it’s a warm, cozy place that’s easy to enjoy.
06/01/2026: Friendly staff, great atmosphere

Pier Head Inn
Cork

Mary O'Connell's
Cork
06/04/2026: Had a great night in here! To be honest we could not fault the two bar staff. They remembered our table of drinks (8 of us) each and every time one of us went to order. No waiting to be served. Exceptional staff. Thanks.

The Metropole Hotel Cork
Cork
12/02/2026: Really sad that don’t respond to a review
06/02/2026: Took AirCoach from Dublin and the hotel is only 5 minutes down the road. Elegant entry and charming lobby for tea. Our bathroom was a little odd shaped but we managed. Staff everywhere were friendly and attentive. We had breakfast included, which included everything on the menu. And the hotel bar was a nice way to cap the evening off.

Ryan's Bar
Cork
13/10/2025: Excellent service and Murphys. Came to watch the Wales game, which they initially didn't have on. But the legend behind the bar took the time to edit the settings in order to stream BBC Wales for me. Good friendly atmosphere, highly recommended 👌
30/08/2025: Very nice pint of Coors enjoyed my evening there

Offbeat Donut Co.

03/11/2025: I loved the quality of the product, however the dough has gotten worse in recent months. The toppings are still good. I gave it 5 stars because of the previous quality. I hope they go back to the original recipe.

Fitzpatricks Foodstore
Cork
20/10/2025: I bought a baguette with hot chicken this morning and the chicken was like a shoe sole, it was probably three days old and the baguette is also dry, disgusting! Considering the class of the store and the prices, I thought the food was of a high standard and fresh, big mistake, I will definitely not go back there.
16/10/2025: Cleanest premises ever .. food from the deli is outstanding. All staff are lovely to be with and it's always busy..

The Floury Apron
Cork
08/10/2025: Small, quaint shop with excellent food and friendly staff! I had the Nutella banana pancakes and my husband Breakfast nap sandwich. Both were delicious!! We also had the raspberry almond cake. Tea and coffee were great. Reasonably priced and food was super fresh! A must see!
05/09/2025: We recently ordered a sandwich platter for 15 people from the Floury Apron. They were absolutely top quality and we had a great mix of fillings in ciabatta , foccacia, wraps and slice pan.
Caroline was very attentive via email and followed up afterwards to make sure we were happy with our order. Food, service and value were all 10/10. Would highly recommended.
