The best restaurants in Cork

06/06/2026: Bagels had processed cheese slices instead of real cheese. Asked for a bagel with unmelted cheese for my son and they said they don't do this. Jacket potato with tuna tasted as if it had been thrown together, with very strong onions in the salad. All bland and poor quality, which was disappointing for the price: we paid 23 Euro for 2 bagels and 1 jacket potato.

29/03/2026: One of the worst coffees I've ever had for €4.90. I had a Flatwhite with plant-based milk, but the foam was completely separated from the coffee, the lid didn't fit the glass (there were two options, and neither worked), and the taste was truly awful—the coffee was completely burnt. The name "Coffee House" is very misleading. Furthermore, when the guy called my order, he never specified that it was made with plant-based milk, which is quite reckless behavior, as I could have been drinking cow's milk, which would have made me sick.

22/07/2026: Alice in your cork office showroom is brilliant. Went in today to buy about €100 of stock for our business. Came out spending €800.

08/07/2026: A bit more expensive than other places around cork.

03/09/2026: Attitude of the person on till leaves a lot to be desired. Not wanting ice in your glass and no cream on dessert was met with resistance and done eventually under duress while muttering nasty comment. I was with an elderly person at the time and didn't want to be in an argument. If I was on my own it would have been a different thing. Today 3/9/26 around half two

07/08/2026: Visited here today to treat teenagers to lunch Queued at 3 to be told kitchen was closed for 20 / 30 minutes as was too busy Accepted this and ordered coffee and minerals and returned to counter 30 minutes later to be told chef still wasn’t ready and no offer of a clear time when chef would be ready I understand the cafe was busy but please if offering lunch facilities give realistic times as to when lunch is available Or close lunch kitchen if not realistic to offer lunch facilities

09/05/2026: Ordered a chicken burrito, received it, didn’t look like a burrito, wasn’t wrapped like a burrito, dripping for some reason, the fillings tasted like an old El Paso kit, bland as anything I’ve ever tasted, I ended up throwing half of it away and getting a burger, would 100% never order from hear again.

08/02/2026: Got chicken burrito and chicken nachos, tasted of nothing, extremely bland and burrito dripping wet for some reason, spilling out and falling apart. No jalapenos, meat overcooked and dry. 24 euro...

20/08/2026: Food is amazing but the coffee is actually like water. Definitely will not buy coffee there again. Was nicer a year ago but not drinkable now. Staff is always courteous

07/08/2026: Large coffee is medium at large price. Medium coffee is small at large price. Didn’t reduce prices due to VAT reductions either.

28/08/2026: Ordered again from here because they are really tasty. Good value. Fast delivery

16/04/2026: I have food posioning do not go here it’s disgusting

10/06/2026: Delicious Chinese food. Very reliable.

10/06/2026: Delicious Chinese food. Very reliable.

06/08/2026: It is great food just slightly overpriced but cannot complain

17/05/2026: Very small portions compared to the price Very tasteless It was very salty

09/08/2026: I waited an hour for a hamburger;order nr 579 it was cold, 10-minute walk away my house whereas the fries with kebab meat were hot. I order there often, but I think I’m going to stop

24/07/2026: Haven’t got here in years but went today for my elderly parents who are so fussy. Got potato pies chips and curry all of which were delicious. I will be back.

31/08/2026: Terrible service pizza took 49 minutes on a quiet day asked where it was and she said it was on the way took another 29 minutes and the lady was complaining about me looking at them asking where my pizza was disgraceful

30/08/2026: Order 6 pizzas for a birthday party yesterday 3 pepperoni and 3 margarita Well all pizzas were margarita very disappointed , how can you miss up your orders like seriously by the time the delivery guy left was too late we only realised then and with a bunch of hungry kids I didn’t even find time to ring and complaint. Not good enough guys.

03/09/2026: If I could give this zero stars I would! The one star will remain for the one nice delivery lady they have down there! So to begin, not only have they no idea how to read orders they must just be point blank ignoring them!! Everytime I order they get my order wrong or forget to put things in like the cheese on the chips cheese and curry or another time they said screw it well just forget the cheese and the curry altogether! Just plain chips we received after they charging us €7! Yet again tonight our order was wrong and the girl answered me with “well that’s not actually our problem” it is when I’ve spent €52 on 2 small pizzas chips cheese and curry and a portion of goujons! Apache would want to give their staff a crash course on phone etiquette as a start and maybe throw in a few reading lessons also! I always went back here because I liked the food and I understand staff turn overs etc so things can get mixed up but never will I spend my money somewhere again after being spoken to like that. Spend your hard earned money somewhere where they actually send out the right food to people.

26/07/2026: Pizza came like it was dipped in a bucket off water the whole house was sick after it

04/06/2026: My first time at this subway and won't be my last was served by a lovely young man Bradley was so nice and didn't rush us which meant a lot to someone with a hidden disability

01/05/2026: Been to this Subway a few times, sandwiches are usually shoddily made, over cooked on many an occasion and more times than I care to count the lads behind the counter are clearing up 40 mins before advertised closing time.

16/07/2026: Too long time to get food, joke place

21/06/2026: Absolutely disgraceful service. I placed my order at 11:50 PM and it wasn’t delivered until 4:10 AM — over four hours later. During that entire time there was zero communication, no updates, and not even a basic apology. I called the restaurant four separate times and every single call went unanswered. Leaving customers waiting for hours with no information and no way to contact anyone is completely unacceptable. At no point did anyone have the courtesy to explain the delay or acknowledge the inconvenience caused. If you can’t fulfil orders in a reasonable timeframe, you shouldn’t be accepting them. Waiting over four hours for food, being ignored when trying to make contact, and receiving no apology is some of the worst customer service I’ve experienced. I will not be ordering from here again and would strongly advise others to think twice before doing so.

23/05/2026: Got a coffee here and the person that gave it to me had a bugger hanging out of their nose. When I mentioned this to them they just flicked it onto the ceiling. Coffee wasn't too bad though.

22/05/2026: Got a chicken roll out of here it was rotten

16/09/2026: €8.50 for a pint of Coors. Daylight robbery. This place should be ashamed of itself. In the last two years the pints have gone up nearly €2. €0.60 in the last month alone. Where's the sense in this? Where does it and when will it stop? We're worse fools for paying it.

02/09/2026: Compared to last year, the quality seems to have dropped, but prices increased. I seriously suggest not going there anymore.
