The Quays Bar Tapas & Grill
Cork
15/03/2026: On maps said it is open. However it was closed. Sunday 14:00
27/12/2025: My daughter & I visited the Quays bar today & had food that was reasonably good. Unfortunately the place was absolutely filthy, our shoes were sticking to the floor. Toilets were disgusting & absolutely filthy with no toilet roll & when we asked we were told there was none. I dread to think what the kitchen was like.

The Brasserie
Cork
08/03/2026: It has been the worst restaurant we had been in while. Especially that it is a part of hotel was expecting better. Food was not good at all, so dry and odd sauces. There was so much staff and yet no one was available to take order. Slow and constantly chasing staff to order food and drinks they avoided customers. So much staff just standing and chatting along themselves. Start taking down orders on paper, don't pretend you remember orders. There was only one girl that was nice and working.

Pearl River
Cork
25/06/2026: This restaurant easily serves the worst meal we have ever had. The hot and sour soup was not soup at all — it was loaded with so much cornstarch that it was more like rice paste. The Mongolian lamb was even worse. The vegetables and meat were merely blanched in water and thickened with piles of starch. We barely touched our food.
The moment the hot and sour soup arrived, I understood why there were no other customers. I told the waiter that the dishes were far too sweet and full of starch, yet he claimed that this is simply how Chinese food tastes in Ireland. Not only does this place lack business, but the staff also have terrible attitudes. Terrible experience.
18/06/2026: Dropped in for the early bird special. Was excellent €25 per head before 7pm entree and main and a drink. Great value huge serving sizes could not eat it all.

Maldron Hotel Shandon Cork City
Cork
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”.

Domino's Pizza Ireland
Cork
12/07/2026: 45e for a family feast. Italian base pizzas way overcooked, and chicken way undercooked. When I complained I was told I didn't understand how the Italian base was meant to be lol.
21/06/2026: Friendly and professional staff
But the food was really disappointing. Super expensive, bland and undercooked. Do yourself a favor and go somewhere else. I have had frozen pizzas that have been better than the pizza here

Apache Pizza
Cork
06/12/2025: Chips were not cooked, hardly get a takeaway as its so expensive so very disappointed for the kids.
29/11/2025: Ordered from here for delivery. Took over an hour (I live a 5 minute drive away). Food was COLD. Driver wasn't very pleasant, he couldn't take the food from his delivery bag and hand it to me, instead just opened it and stood there whilst I took it out.

Macau Sporting Club
Cork
06/07/2026: If you have money to throw away it's fun .
27/06/2026: While trying to leave my scooter at the casino, an elderly receptionist called me a "twat" and said, "We don't accept this behavior in the UK." I was shocked and bewildered, considering we are in Ireland. I truly believe his unacceptable behavior was racially motivated

Voodoo Rooms
Cork
10/12/2025: Probably best night club in Cork.
2 Levels with different types of music, third level- smoke bar on top.
Very good and very very loud as well.
02/11/2025: Awful experience. We had tickets, but the security refused to let us in for no reason. They said one of us was drunk — which was completely false. The way they spoke to us was rude, aggressive, and humiliating. Pure disrespect and discrimination.
