Freestyle Chinese Cork
Cork
10/08/2025: A very simple restaurant. It seemed to me that they were more of a takeout restaurant, and since there was room, they set up tables and chairs.
They were very friendly. The portions were generous; one dish is enough. The food was decent; some reviews described it as delicious, but it was over the top. For the price, I wouldn't go back.
08/08/2025: Local restaurant at the heart of cork, lovely place to eat. service was excellent and staff were kind, food was delicious and hot, and the music in the restaurant was pleasant.

The Black Dog
Cork
13/06/2025: Music, staff and atmosphere were all grand.
01/06/2025: We were here in 2019. The atmosphere hasn't changed much. And that's a good thing. BDSM is and should remain a rock bar. Here, you sit down, enjoy a few beers, and chat with the locals. The music is more of a side effect. If you're a little peckish, there's also freshly prepared food from the smoker/grill. I had nachos with baked cheese. It's really good here. The Black Dog is always packed on weekends. It's definitely worth a visit...

Manhatton Joes
Cork
13/08/2025: From start to finish, this restaurant and takeaway is pure perfection. The food was fresh, piping hot, and bursting with flavor — you can tell they use high-quality ingredients and take pride in every dish. Portion sizes are generous, and everything arrived exactly on time. The packaging kept it all neat and mess-free, which is a big plus.
12/08/2025: One of the few halal spots in Cork city center and easily the best. The food quality is impeccable. Amazing food and big portion size cannot fault the meal at all.

Coqbull
Cork
19/08/2025: I visited Coqbull in Cork with a friend, and our experience was very satisfying: the food was wonderful, with a homemade touch, high-quality ingredients, and at a reasonable price. We were even pleasantly surprised when they offered us some elements of the meal separately, which reinforced that feeling of personalized attention and flexibility in the service.
In addition, the vibrant atmosphere stood out, as well as the friendliness and efficiency of the service that Diego provided.
13/08/2025: Really good food and no problem to eat outside with our 2 dogs which we found was rare in Cork.

Malay Kitchen
Cork
13/08/2025: The pad thai was exceptional!
Small but cozy, with very friendly staff.
07/08/2025: If you like Asian food, you must come here to try the Singapore fried rice noodles and the eel pasta. The quick stir-fry flavor is impressive.

An Bodhrán
Cork
21/07/2025: Lovely place, perfect for a couple of pints.
15/07/2025: It's just sad what's happened to this bar.
It used to be a great drinking spot.
It's just died.
Miserable atmosphere in the place compared to even 6 months ago.
Best avoided.

Soba
Cork
20/07/2025: The food was good and worth the price 🥰🥰😋
13/07/2025: I came here with my wife on Saturday. The staff were friendly but expect them not to have perfect English so communication can be a bit of a challenge sometimes but everyone was nice. I bought the bento box and it comes with a delicious Tom yum soup which is light years better than a miso soup! My wife had chicken pad Thai which was very generous. Option to sit outside so we did. I hope to return for lunch sometime. Thanks!

The Hideout Cafe
Cork
27/07/2025: She’s very professional and respectful
22/07/2025: Superb coffee and sweet treats by Magdelena. I love when a coffee shop sells their own home-made cakes and Magdelena has such a fantastic selection. There were 2 cakes just out of the oven when I arrived - mixed berry and apple. I went for the mixed berry and it was delicious. I'll be returning to try the apple cake for sure. Magdelena is so passionate about her cakes and it shows in the quality of what she's making. 10/10

Boru Coffee Shop
Cork
29/05/2025: We visited this morning. It was such a lovely experience. The guys that run it are gentlemen. The coffee was the best I've had in a long time.Overall a great experience, we will back anytime we come to Cork.
28/04/2025: First time in Ireland. Woke up a bit later than expected and needed a quick coffee and on the go breakfast.
Staff was awesome and the yogurt granola mix was great. Coffee tasted fresh and made perfectly to order.
Wife needed a lemon for a sore throat, but they didn't have one, so they offered a lime instead.
