The best restaurants in Cork

13/06/2026: Staff are so lovely, a little gem in the middle of bantry. Great for a selection of food, and definitely a good breakfast and brew, or lil lady wouldn't be one for a fry, but she tucked one away like it was going out of fashion, and that I think definitely says something 😀 There is indoor and outdoor space. Would definitely recommend fo4 the food, the banter, the craic and the friendly atmosphere 👌 but highly recommend staying for the grub 😋

17/04/2026: Had a lovely get-together in Teasy's for my birthday 🎂 Thanks Girls for all your good wishes. We love dining with you every Friday 💕 Thanks for your great service 👍

18/09/2025: Great pub, Bernard is a great owner who enjoys the craic and music. Had a couple of great night's in the pub in the beautiful village of glengarriff.

04/09/2025: Feel a bit wrong reviewing as we rushed through, but it appeared as if it had Beamish!! Signs for Beamish, Murphys and Guinness, so your 3 major Irish stouts. Was a biker group and whole town was packed so we didnt get a chance to stop. Charming little town though! 2:30pm on a Sunday, August 24 2025.

15/09/2025: Excellent local pub, great atmosphere

22/07/2025: Nice friendly bar just off the main street in midleton. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Music every weekend.

23/02/2026: Mick Finn’s in Clonakilty was absolutely fantastic for our hen party on 14th February 2026. From start to finish, the staff looked after us so well. We had two activities there, and the team were so welcoming, and helpful throughout. Nothing was too much trouble, and they really helped create a fun, relaxed atmosphere for the group. They even threw some ABBA on for us to have a dance. 10/10!! Their friendliness made such a difference and helped make the day extra special. A huge thank you to everyone at Mick Finn’s for your kindness, professionalism, and for helping us make such lovely memories. We had a brilliant time and would highly recommend Mick Finn’s for any group celebration or even to pop in for a drink - the staff are brilliant and up for the craic!

23/05/2026: What a fantastic eat out. The toasted burrito with all the works and designed by Ben was out of this world. On top of that, the friendly service and fresh and friendly manner of all the staff was very noticeable and it was a pleasure talking to them. Just fantastic guys, thank you Emma, Abby and Ben, we will definitely be coming back. :-)

13/04/2026: I had a very pleasant experience at Istanbul Bites. The food was of high quality, and the overall atmosphere was comfortable and welcoming. The staff were courteous and attentive throughout our visit. I would particularly like to appreciate their kind gesture of offering a complimentary juice to my son, as well as providing a discount. Such thoughtful service reflects their commitment to customer satisfaction. I would be happy to recommend this place to others.

27/10/2025: Unpleasant experience. We waited at the bar for around 20 minutes without being acknowledged. Despite approaching staff several times to ask about getting a table, we continued to be ignored. Unfortunately, we decided to leave.

28/09/2025: The food here was genuinely outstanding... chicken curry with half chips & rice - as good as anywhere Ive eaten. Superb / friendly service also.
