The best restaurants in Cork

22/02/2026: Gone to the absolute dogs. I always love it here. Pure durt they are serving now. Don't waste your money

28/12/2025: Definitely no. Never again. This should just be a take-away if even that. We were using the laundrette across the way so had some food while waiting. Medicore at best. Over priced too and I know prices are going up but this was ridiculous. Toilet smells like damp/mould and toilet doors dont have locks. Lobby area into bathroom smells like cigarettes smoke. Bathroom bi nis covered in rust with the soap balancing on it. Like faulty towers. Do not recommend

05/09/2025: Linen weaver JD Wetherspoon was such a nice place for food and free refills of Coffee. Very great place to sit with a soulmate and on my own in recent years. Such a sweet memory 💖 from 2016 to 2018. Hard to believe Linen Weaver is closed now, would wish they can reopen sometime in near future. Good luck and Best wishes, Amarendra Ajaykumar Biochemistry Graduate, UCC, Cork .

25/07/2025: No wonder it's closed no way was weatherspoons could be a success in Ireland

06/10/2025: Filling stations who take your money but do not provide a toilet, do not deserve your support.

12/05/2025: Ok shop - buy tea, coffee food etc but they have no toilet. I will go to a service station in future where they lnow what service is.

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.

19/12/2025: Thanks to Julie for looking after me this afternoon. Absolutely 5 star service.

14/10/2025: Very friendly staff. Clean and very well kitted out shop, considering its size

07/09/2025: Don’t know difference between latte and cappuccino

07/09/2025: I had a strawberry milkshake, It was disgusting, too much milk no strawberry flavour at all, Very liquidity, never going there again The staff were fairly stressed out, Not a great atmosphere there , €10 for two cold drinks, Ridiculous!

04/04/2026: Poor service, long wait with cold food. Staff were very rude when we asked where our food was for a group of 3. Wont be back. Atmosphere isnt nice. Rough crowd.

04/04/2026: Absolutely unacceptable service. I placed an order through Deliveroo and waited over an hour, only to find out the restaurant never even prepared it. Instead of contacting Deliveroo to report the issue or cancel the order, they simply did nothing. No communication, no update — just left me waiting. I eventually had to go to the restaurant myself, and only then was I told to cancel the order because they hadn’t made it. This shows a complete lack of professionalism and basic customer service. If they are unable to manage delivery platforms properly, they should not be accepting orders at all. A total waste of time — I would not recommend this place.

29/12/2025: Delicious smash burgers and excellent skinny fries. Staff are friendly! Will definitely be back.

17/12/2025: Don't waste your money or time. the place is an absolute health hazard. dirty floors, pigeons roaming around the floors INSIDE. on top of this, the staff are rude and uninterested. kitchen is visible to the public and its a mess to say the least. The food is stale and cheap but not by price.... 15 euro for a stale sandwich with a drink. the chips I ordered arrived 20 minutes after I got my sandwich when I asked to just get them in a takeaway bag because it took so long the waitress rolled her eyes and came back with them rolled up in brown paper. chips are Tesco home brand from across the street mind you. they have a central lovely location a pity the owner has let it become the disgrace it is.

14/11/2025: I came for their sourdough loaf only to be told it is only for sandwiches made there! I used to be able to buy and enjoy this wonderful bread before. Ridiculous!

09/11/2025: I would like to express my appreciation for the excellent service I received at the café. I felt genuinely well looked after, and they were attentive at all times. Because of this, I decided not only to stay for breakfast, but also to remain longer and have lunch there as well. Megan, the waitress, was incredibly attentive, and the young man at the till was very kind to us.

02/04/2026: Ordered 2 Massaman curry. Awful. Tasted like cleaning products. Teriyaki was tastless. Duck was the best of a bad lot of dishes. Very disappointed . I used to love Khor food.

26/03/2026: I don’t usually post things like this, but tonight’s experience deserves it. €20 for chicken, chips, rice and two tiny sauces — and the quality was honestly shocking. Dry, overcooked chicken and chips that looked and tasted like they’d been sitting there all day. I rang to complain and was told I’d be refunded — then got a call back to say the manager refused because I’ve “complained before.” Maybe that says more about the food than it does about me. In the middle of a cost of living crisis, people deserve better than this. Genuinely — would you pay €20 for what’s in these photos?

22/11/2025: Used to like popping in when in Cork City but found the waitress unfriendly atmosphere just unwelcoming not a place i want to stay in and enjoy lunch so left without ordering.

14/11/2025: Had lunch in here today, the portions were very small for the price - much better value to be had in other cafes in the city. The staff were rude, and it felt as if we were inconveniencing them by being there. Would not recommend.

15/11/2025: Food is lovely but I placed an order 1 hour & 40 mins, still hasn't being delivered. By the time it comes it'll more than likely be freezing. Usually service is good but last few deliveries I've had has being below par. An hour is OK to wait but this is taking the peeeeaaaas

19/09/2025: food was fabulous as always 10/10 beautiful curry, and lovely chips, best chineese food around, highly recommend, also the spare ribs in peeking sauce and the salt chilli duck is out of this world. the lady behind the counter fiona is so friendly and so good to my son always so friendly great food great service,
