The best restaurants in Cork

11/08/2026: A homely place with garden and courtyard. The restaurant is big and has a wide variety of food to choose from. The accommodation is a unique style very clean and comfortable. I've had many a stay here and would recommend it to everyone. Don, the owner is very approachable and nothing is impossible to him. 5⭐️

05/07/2026: fantastic inn, great food and beers, friendly staff, beautiful location

19/09/2026: Lovely local pub with great food. Beautiful location by the sea.

31/08/2026: Gorgeous spot and delicious pints! We narrowly missed out on food service but plan to be back again next year and look forward to sampling their seafood delights!

16/10/2026: Had a great night their very convivial tapas sharing leads to a much more sociable evening, sat in the enclosed "outdoor" seating area which was absolutely lovely.

01/10/2026: The experience we had was unbelievable. They brought us through a journey of wine and food that was unmatched. We will often now pause and think what an amazingly experience we had. The wine list was top notch. The food was unique and premium. Don’t know what else to say.

29/09/2026: Wonderful memories I send books to/from Café at the Edge of the World

29/09/2026: Have tried mocha. Its decent enough. There are better options for coffee. KOKO has much better mocha comparatively. But seating and ambiance is good. Staff were great.

25/09/2026: We had our Day 2 wedding celebration at Blackbird Ballycotton, and we couldn’t have picked a better place! Mossie was incredibly helpful from the very beginning and made organising everything so easy. Having the private area out the back for our 60 guests was fantastic, with plenty of space for everyone to relax, enjoy themselves and celebrate with us. We even managed to get the sunshine, which made the day even more special! The food from Trawler Boys was absolutely amazing, and a huge thank you to Fiona and the entire team at Blackbird for making our day so special. Everyone had such a brilliant time, and we can’t wait to come back again in the future for more pints, food and plenty of craic! Thanks again to everyone at Blackbird for a fantastic day. ❤️

22/09/2026: great pub, very popular on the Trawler Boyz restaurant evenings.

07/10/2026: Best scampi I've had in a very long time. A huge recommend! :-)

27/09/2026: Really enjoyed the fish and chips here! The fish has that lovely Dutch-style taste, which made it feel a bit different from the usual. Crispy, tasty, and filling, with great portions. Definitely worth trying!

29/09/2026: Lovely coffee spot with excellent lattes and tasty bites. Google says it’s the best coffee spot in Kinsale and I would concur!

13/09/2026: The cappuccino and fresh made baked goods were fantastic! Fede was very kind and gracious. The entire experience was lovely. If you are visiting Kinsale definitely stop by The Collector.

24/09/2026: We are from Italy and we could say that the traditional fish and chips was really really good. We are sure that we will come back before to come back home. Enjoy it!!! And the welcome was really delicious! The girl was gentle and friendly.

24/09/2026: one of the gretast fish and chips place in london. we had great fish and also great curry and tartar sauces. server lady was great with a huge smile. definitely must go place!

01/10/2026: Outstanding food and service. The Celtic Featherblade and Slow-Braised Lamb Ragù were bursting with flavor and generously portioned. Even the kids' menu hit the mark, with my daughter loving her fish and chips. Make sure to save room for dessert—the brownie is fantastic! Highly recommend and will definitely return. 🥰🥰

27/09/2026: Very good experience. Healthy and delicious food, amazing service. Really enjoyable.

05/10/2026: Traditional Irish bar alongside Cork Harbor, one of the largest natural harbors in the world. The bartenders were the nicest you'll ever meet. I'd move to Cobh just to drink at Kelly's every day.

03/10/2026: Brilliant pub with great Atmosphere. We visited after staying overnight on a trip on MSC Virtuosa. Staff were all very welcoming. The live music was great. There are lots of hooks for coats under the low shelving around the pub Fab evening thanks to everyone at Kelly's. Highly recommend you visit. 🍻

15/09/2026: Didn’t eat here. But driving by was so impressed by the mural! Great looking place!

07/09/2026: Great menu and delicious food. Waiting staff were friendly and efficient. Lovely setting along the harbour side too.

10/10/2026: Just so you know 80% of their reviews have been meant for another fish and chips truck Catch of the day which does outstanding food. This truck is fine but not “the best fish and chips I ever had”

07/10/2026: Best scampi I've had in a very long time. A huge recommend! :-)

30/09/2026: Greetings from Galicia, Spain! Everything was great! 🏉🏉🏉🏉🏉🏉🏉🏉

11/09/2026: The seafood chowder was good, very generous with the prawns and mussels. But not quite as good as some of the more “fish” heavy chowders we’ve tried elsewhere. The wild mushroom rigatoni and chicken were quite tasty. The scampi was good. The portions in all instances were very generous. Overall a nice experience. The fly that kept landing on the table was kind of friendly. There are a lot of flies around these days. Food only served 12-4pm. No dinner.

28/08/2026: Lovely and personable team of staff.

18/08/2026: Best breakfast in skibereen and the staff are lovely.

09/10/2026: Yummy salmon Sunday roast style! Super charming ambience inside and out, and friendly staff

03/10/2026: Had the garlic prawns, catch of the day and a side of onion rings. Enjoyed all of it. Finished off with an Irish coffee.
