The best restaurants in Cork

29/12/2025: Very nice coffee and treats, go and try it, won't be disappointed

26/09/2025: WCC never disappoints. Good quality beans too. Best coffee in Bandon by a country mile

23/10/2025: What a fabulous spot! Lovely atmosphere, relaxed and cosy. First time here although my son has been encouraging me for a while! We booked on-line which was very straightforward. We parked directly outside the Lodge itself. Parking there is limited enough and tight for turning. There is also the option of parking on the main road and walking up steps (maybe 15). There's an outside area which would be a great spot on a sunny day or well wrapped up. You can see the kitchen from there. You step inside to a bar area where you are warmly welcomed and directed to your table. There are various combinations of seating available. We sat at a high table for two. Menu is mainly curries and burgers but also battered fish and chips. The cuisine is very authentic so the curries are full of flavour and spice. It was too hot for my palate but I blame myself for not checking and requesting it with less heat. The flavour was amazing though. My oh's fish and chips was good. We shared a Malva dessert which was delicious. I had a ginger beer, very refreshing, and my oh had a glass of French Sauvignon Blanc which was excellent and perfectly chilled. Service was attentive and professional. Our bill came to 67 euros. Just to note that sides for the curries are extra. Beautiful location and setting. Great amenity for the local area and beyond. Well worth a trip there. Enjoy.

26/09/2025: Came here for dinner and every dish was delicious. Staff & service was brilliant! Would highly recommend and we will be back again.

04/01/2026: This is a great place to stop on your way to or coming back from the westerly extremes of west cork. Great food and coffee that tastes like coffee. Mince pies to die for. Keep it going!!!

03/11/2025: The shop is very friendly. If you're passing by, you can stop by for coffee and food.

07/10/2025: Really cute coffee shop. I just had a cappuccino but they have some yummy looking cakes. The staff was very friendly.

24/09/2025: The best lemon cheesecake, Excellent customer service!

28/11/2025: Their pizza is something else, beautiful and good.

25/11/2025: On a Saturday evening, one of the few restaurants open in the entire town. A nice, positive atmosphere and friendly service. A wide selection of dishes, with almost all served with proper fries. The coleslaw was very mayonnaise-y, a bit too much for my liking, but I've noticed that they like it that way in Ireland. The beef lasagna was very good, with a juicy meat and a distinct flavor. The chicken wings as an appetizer were also juicy and the portions were huge, as usual. I recommend it.

08/06/2025: Had the classic. Great home made sausage with just the right spices. Roll held together till the end. Onions and peppers were tender and fresh.

04/06/2025: Contained in the huge English Market SC ,this place stands out from all the other exceptional vendors. Just a small stall with usually only 3 workers, it can turn out food to die for. All sandwiches are make rite on the spot. You can customize or order any of the house specials. Grab a special, find a quiet spot, (not possible) and enjoy.

31/12/2025: Always a good standby when visiting Kinsale

30/12/2025: The meals were very good, but unfortunately many of the dishes on the menu were unavailable.

20/12/2025: Food is always amazing , will always be my go to for pizza and tonight loving the drivers Christmas jumper! , looking very festive🎄🎄

14/11/2025: Best takeaway in Carrigaline. The food is always incredible and the staff are lovely! Highly recommend 😊

01/01/2026: Found this place on TikTok, and the pastries did not disappoint! Such a stunning selection and all excellent.

31/12/2025: Quick purchase on the way to the bus. Ate when arrived in Cork. Bun tasted like it was from a "too good to go" but without the discount. Sausage roll much better, however expected more taste for the price.

26/01/2026: A wonderful place quite with a great Staff and the best of it is the delicious food thank you

27/11/2025: Really good scampi and chips and fish and chips. Excellent and friendly service. Great atmosphere.

29/12/2025: Lovely restaurant with good food. They should probably think about improving their outdoor signage though. Walked past it a few times before I spotted it. Hopefully I'll visit again.

22/12/2025: We were hungry on a rainy day, we saw good reviews and it was true. Now don't expect classic Italian taste, they add their own twist but it all tastes good and portions are generous. Overall it's really good value for the money and my feedback is based on that, I'm aware I'm not rating some posh overpriced restaurant.

11/12/2025: Great bar ,great atmosphere, friendly and helpful staff.

07/12/2025: Never tried food here; for me its the best Pub in town of Midleton ! 👌 🍸 My friend Ciril will be turning 80th soon ! Always in great spirits ✨️

12/10/2025: Beautiful salads and a lovely variety of choices..bit pricey but definitely worth a visit

17/08/2025: Lovely Italian biscuits and coffee.

08/09/2025: Top quality food as always along with excellent service 👍👍

23/08/2025: Yet another gem of Crosshaven. Amazing food with huge portions. Turned up without a reservation on Saturday but still got a table, but was busy. Highly recommended.
