The best restaurants in Cork

11/06/2025: Nice place and could be 5 stars But price for Hawaian breast in bun is mad . 9 euros you pay for extra mini slice of pineapple and skiny slice of bacon. It's not right. Bun is not bigger than a standard breast in bun . Jaw drop on the floor. A way too expensive. And if you want meal add 4.5 extra 😳

25/05/2025: Llegó el sábado por la noche. La joven detrás del mostrador era encantador, muy educado y acogedor. La comida salió bastante rápido, tal vez 10 minutos más o menos. Lo único es que estaba un poco caliente por dentro, pero la comida en sí era preciosa. Volvería a aparecer seguro.

08/08/2025: I adored O'Driscolls. Ben the barman was accommodating knowledgeable and welcoming. I saw him, several times remember anything order that the punter had forgotten themselves. I had great conversations with the customers, over several nights. Its such a great pub. I'd recommend it to anyone. Brilliant

05/07/2025: Great pub, one of the best local pubs in Douglas.

20/03/2025: by far my favorite take away,out of four take aways in an area where old people go to die,like salmon,there's usually Mammy's and Granny's that force feed,yet all do well,each has its own niche,but Papas is run by the sweetest people,the food is amazing,I went in to drop off sweets last night,it's nice to be nice,the Chef asked me why I hadn't ordered my food for a while,it's been a few months,I'm renovating my house,I wouldn't eat at my place at the moment...he knew what I ordered,so getting the fantastic Italian Inferno pizza later,I'll sit on the wall,I couldn't recommend more.

10/05/2025: Great food at a good price. Not fancy decor but we were there for the food! A good range to choose from and Jimmy and his staff were authentic. Wine prices were reasonable too.

21/04/2025: Nice restaurant. Not many options for vegetarians but lots of options in non veg and it really tastes good..!!

25/08/2025: Middle of the road in terms of taste. A very mediocre sized chicken burger, chips and a drink for €16 and they don’t even drop it to your table

02/08/2025: The food was fresh and hot. Highly recommend if you need a quick snack or a good meal.

27/07/2025: Excellent. One of the hotel mistakes of the trip.

24/07/2025: I recently stayed at this hotel, and I have to say, the staff was a major letdown. From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was bothering them. The front desk staff (Martha) seemed uninterested and gave off the vibe that they'd rather be anywhere else. Throughout my stay, I encountered similar attitudes from other staff members. Requests were met with delays, and it felt like pulling teeth to get any kind of assistance. It's a shame because the hotel itself had potential, but the poor service really dragged down the whole experience. I won't be returning, and I'd advise others to consider other options where the staff actually cares about their guests. We had tried to complain to the manager Joe about the attitude of his staff, he told us “customers like you are not worth being customers”.

09/07/2025: Nice place,and the staffs are very nice.

17/02/2025: Absolutely amazing food! The lady was just so lovely too!! Definitely recommend! Best Chinese I have tried in cork so far as the others haven’t been good!! The only thing I’d say is to let people collecting food use the bathrooms as well as dining customers.

15/07/2025: The best Indian food in Ireland for nearly 35 years now. Simply outstanding chefs. I've been spoiled! Even good Indian restaurants around the world now disappoint me regularly! Well done Gunni and family, you make us Corkonians (and Irish) proud!

26/05/2025: Best Indian we ever had. I've eaten Indian food in Birmingham, UK where they believe they are the kings of Indian food. This place could teach them lessons. Keep up the good food!

02/06/2025: Absolutely phenomenal and friendly staff. Very appreciative of the cashier and manager. They more than took care of us when we made a mistake. Highly recommend.

16/04/2025: Beautiful casino, they need to update there website and Google. Nice tables, friendly staff.

18/05/2025: The worst caramel Frappuccino. money thrown away

26/07/2025: Fui aquí a almorzar y pedí un burrito. Cuando le pregunté si quería queso, le dije que sí, luego esparció en cuatro pedazos pequeños. Supuse que estaba empezando, pero luego pasó directamente al siguiente ingrediente. Le pregunté si podía conseguir un poco más de queso, y de nuevo añadió solo 4 o 5 piezas más. En ese momento, ni siquiera me molesté en preguntar de nuevo. Cuando llegué a la caja, me habían cobrado por “queso doble” encima de un burrito ya caro. Cuestioné IT, señalando la poca cantidad de queso que realmente había recibido, y me dijeron que el manejo es muy particular con las porciones de queso. Honestamente, IT era casi risible. Cobrar más por lo que no podrían haber sido más de 10 pequeños trozos de queso en todo el IT no es solo mezquino, es vergonzoso.

19/07/2025: I ordered on Deliveroo and received what looked like some used leftovers. I paid €19 so have it delivered. Really disappointed. I have had the one in Douglas and never had an issue but even the photo speaks for itself. I didn’t even try eat it.

20/07/2025: My second visit and sorely disappointed. Bland food, poor service (we were never offered more drinks) and stuffy atmosphere (I had to request the cooling be turned on). My salmon was tasteless and the others found the Katsu lacking in flavour. Sad to see such a great place go downhill in the few moths since my first visit.

13/07/2025: The food was boring and the service was laughably bad - this place has declined rapidly

05/08/2025: Best bar outside the city center, amazing little nooks to be left alone as well as large open areas for large party's or functions. Amazing bar food. Id like to see some unusual Irish whiskey on the shelf to complement the already unusual mezcals and other cool bottles. Top marks.

20/07/2025: Very good atmosphere, friendly staff, excellent music, I recommend it.

24/07/2025: Nice ambience and very clean, but the cappuccino was disappointing and tasted of burnt coffee beans. It was quite, but freezing cold.

21/07/2025: I really like Starbucks in general and I really like this Starbucks. The staff are friendly, the coffee is as expected, the seats are very comfortable and the toilets are clean. Free parking also.

17/12/2024: Just got 2 snack boxes. Both of them - chicken and chips stone cold. Disgusted
