The best restaurants in Cork

29/06/2025: The food was very good and I definitely recommend it for breakfast/brunch.

18/06/2025: Staff are lovely and welcoming. Highly recommend Joe's Cookie. As soon as i got it I received looks from other customers and enquiries about what it was and that it looks great😂

09/08/2025: Positive: We spent two nights at The Address, Cork. The hotel is superbly located above the city. Since we booked a room with a balcony facing the city, we always enjoyed a beautiful view of Cork. The hotel's ambiance, a blend of history and modernity, creates a very special charm. You feel like a guest here. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The room was very large, clean, and had a beautiful view of the city. We felt very comfortable there. Breakfast was a colorful mix of Irish breakfast and intercontinental breakfast. There was something for every taste. The staff were able to fulfill any special requests at breakfast. The entire breakfast room, with its special decor, had a very pleasant ambiance. We can recommend the hotel and would book it again if we were in Cork. A quick note regarding the route to Cork city center: Since the hotel is located on a hill on the outskirts of Cork, it's about a 15-minute walk to Cork city center. The return journey involves going up the hill. However, this wasn't a disadvantage for us. We did enjoy the beautiful view, though. It's something to consider if you're not very good on your feet. Cons: The parking situation was a bit tight. There are a few free parking spaces available, but they fill up quickly. Positive: Upon arrival, there was only one EV charging space available. We were allowed to use it and were able to move our car the next morning. After that, we didn't need the car again until our departure.

01/08/2025: This hotel was a classic example of, looks beautiful on the outside, but completely failed to live up to expectations on the inside. The biggest flaw being that the rooms were unbearably hot and there was no ceiling fan or even free-standing fan made available. Even with windows open neither my husband or I were able to sleep more than 30-45 minutes throughout the evening. Front desk provided zero help or solution other than telling us we should’ve asked for a fan, which is pretty unacceptable that the hotel would not be aware of its poorly ventilated rooms prior to guests checking in. Shower also did not work when we showered in the morning as the pressure was very low and then woke stop altogether after a few seconds. Location in terms of proximity to the attractions of Cork was great, but overall would advise staying away from this place!

30/04/2025: Such a wonderful Café, the staff is lovely and the food is too. With all the trees and flowers it's just beautiful to sit outside and enjoy the sunshine with a coffee.

09/01/2025: Been here twice. Lovely Victorian greenhouse set up as cafe. Very good value for money. Greenery around you and fab view of northside.Had a soup and sandwich. Very nice and decent amount. Sandwich wasn't your skinny stuff you get in lots of places. Proper sandwich. Not much parking at all. Better on foot if possible. But worth it. They even give you blankets in winter. It is a greenhouse but heaters also. Definitely return.

08/03/2025: Excellent facilities, courts are well maintained. Site has bar facilities, gym, tennis courts and squash courts

16/12/2024: Had a birthday parttgere recently can't fault the staff on anything twas perfect

14/08/2025: The takeaway was tasteless and rubbery, and nowhere near as good as it used to be. It ended up in the bin. I would not recommend it.

13/08/2025: Very accomodating and lovely place to eat.

20/08/2025: Guinness was awful. The staff seemed friendly but when questioned about the quality they became very defensive. Worst Guinness I have had in Cork. I will not go back in the door of the Roundy based on unfriendly staff reaction. They really need to focus on the quality of the drink they are serving and sort it out.

06/08/2025: We had a lovely time here at The Roundy over the bank holiday weekend. Great drinks, relaxing atmosphere, and the staff were nice and welcoming. We will certainly make a habit of returning here when in Cork city.

12/08/2025: Great pizza. Good service. Pleasant staff. Great combination of flavours

12/08/2025: Stopped here for lunch and had 2 pizzas. One was the new York and the other was the pepperoni. Great pizza with good sauce, toppings and the crust was great. Wood fired over have good flavour and right amount of char. Service was quick and friendly

07/08/2025: First time going. Food was very tasty. Was told my order would take 20 mins, 50 mins later we got out food.

01/08/2025: The best burgers in the country that’s a fact !!

25/07/2025: Good coffee and scones, the place is not very comfortable but it's fine for a while

17/07/2025: Terrible coffee. Very low quality. I do not recommend it.

08/08/2025: Lovely hotel in a central location.

03/08/2025: After our recent stay in can only say how wonderful an experience it was, the room was excellent, the staff were lovely, friendly and exceptionally helpful. The good was 10/10. Would highly recommend staying at this venue!

10/07/2025: Coffee is excellent and a nice layout inside with a upstairs area that looks pretty cool. Didn't try any food.

17/06/2025: Fantastic coffee, nice and friendly saff

24/07/2025: No voy a volver. El menú es atractivo. El personal es poco servicial, hasta el punto de ser grosero. No es típico de una buena experiencia gastronómica en Cork.

27/03/2025: We had a lovely breakfast..in beautiful friendly surroundings.

24/06/2025: Excellent food, BUT... waited 10/15 for waitress to take out order, just about finished our starter and we got our mains served, then as we were finishing, we were told we had 10 minutes left at the table and were asked to finish. This was never mentioned to us when we sat down, that we had a limited time. No option to get dessert, we asked could we at least sit outside and finish our wine, so we did. Despite this, the food was really good, just a pity we were rushed so much and no dessert.

18/06/2025: A very good experience, very friendly staff and delicious food, well presented and tasty. Reasonable prices for the area where it is located. I ate on the street, with a plastic fence, but well-ventilated with a good heat source and not too much noise. It was a very pleasant time.

07/08/2025: Best Spa facilities, environment and architecture that I have experienced

01/08/2025: Honestly the only hotel I'll use in Cork again, treated my father and his fiancée Yui very well!

13/08/2025: I went to Bean and Leaf last Thursday for my usual morning coffee. A server (turned out to be the manager) was walking from the floor, to the coffee station. I said 'excuse me, can you please give me the code for the (outer door) of the bathroom. She did not reply, so I asked again for the code. 'You don't need the code, there are two people in the bathroom, stand at the door, and they'll let you in when they come out.' I made three more requests for the code - on the fourth, she told me the code numbers, through clenched teeth, barely audible. She told me also - if you hadn't lost the receipt, you wouldn't need to ask for it!!! Incredible. A man then stood up from his sat, fists clenched, red furious face, clearly unable to control his rage. Are you planning to assault me, I asked? because I will have the police here, fast. This woman, whose name is Ana, instigated this entire incident, putting me in danger of violence. Just for arguing with a customer for that length should be enough to fire her. Her boss, Bill, called me, and excused her with his every word. 'A misunderstanding, he said. Bill could not tell WHAT WAS THE MISUNDERSTANDING? HER REFUSAL TO GIVE ME THE CODE, CAUSED THE INCIDENT, THAT COULD VERY EASILY HAVE LED TO VIOLENCE - NOTHING ELSE. ITS EITHER ELDER ABUSE, MAN HATE, OR HOMOPHOBIA. SHE IS CLEARLY MALICOUS, AND SHE KNOWS SHE WILL GET AWAY WITH IT. THE WHOLE THING WAS HORRIBLE AND UPSETTING. PADDY FITZPATRICK. SHANDON. CORK CITY.

04/08/2025: Delicious cappuccino, service was good staff looked a little unhappy but it was Sunday morning 😁
