The best restaurants in Cork

27/08/2026: Our favourite Chinese takeaway is open for business for holiday! Welcome back. 🥳

24/03/2026: The worst Chinese I’ve ever had in my life. Lack of flavour, chicken was rubbery, sauces tasted burned and almost like plastic, very oily. I felt terrible after, nothing was fresh. My whole family didn’t enjoy it.

11/08/2026: Great pints of Guinness and friendly people. A great pub.

27/09/2026: A stream of Italian coming from the kitchen hinted at the nationality of the chef at this lovely Italian restaurant - And the food didn’t disappoint. Well done. Great food and a lot cheaper, as well as better, than my meal at an Italian restaurant in Cork city the night before

07/09/2026: Wonderful! Genuine Italian food with a lovely friendly atmosphere. Everything we ate was delicious, but the garlic bread is a must. We’ll be back soon!

06/10/2026: Great service very very nice food definitely recommended.. we went there after a recommendation from Ballynoe inn.

19/09/2026: If One likes Chinese food , This is One of the Best Restaurants in town , had a Family Birthday Meal recently and we were very pleased with everything .

10/07/2026: The rooms are fine and location is very good. The food used to be a lot better here. Definitely not passing 4.5% discount on to customers since 1 July. The quality of the beef in the burgers has dropped a lot. So much that we stopped eating here and go to Cork to eat out instead most of the time. If the quality of food got better I would go back here again as the hotel bar is good. Don't bother with tje carvery though unless you want to be transported back to school dinners.

22/04/2026: Always a great pint of Murphys in the Hi-B and Kepplers.food is bang on and a priced fairly.Good spot for the weekend pint.

07/09/2026: Awful food. Over salted and duck old. Did not have any cutlery with takeaways. Also overpriced.

26/07/2026: Very friendly staff and excellent service throughout our visit. The portion sizes were generous, and after trying a few other Chinese restaurants recently that hadn't quite lived up to our expectations, this was a pleasant surprise. The food arrived very quickly, was fresh, and the quality was excellent. We ordered the chicken curry, prawn toast, and chicken satay, and every dish was delicious. The curry was packed with chicken, which was great to see. The only minor downsides were that the toilets could have been cleaner and the restaurant lacked a bit of atmosphere. That said, the warm and welcoming staff more than made up for it. We'd happily return.

28/07/2026: What a place!! Delicious and vegetarian friendly. Down at Fountainstown today. The owner is so nice!

03/10/2026: They have a new guy working there who has no interest in being there or serving customers. Could very well be the rudest person in customer service in all of Cork, so thats something.

15/05/2026: After failing at finding a chinese restaurant, we finally found a place that consistently make good food, super quick. We're on purpose driving almost 20min each way in order to get the food there.
