The best restaurants in Cork

15/03/2026: The pizza from here is lovely! We got the Pinocchio and the Hawaiian. The crust is a perfect thickness and there was a great amount of cheese!

13/09/2023: Last Saturday I got pure water never ever again

24/08/2023: I went there to grab a chaï latte, it was really good and the service was great.

17/12/2024: Would highly recommend taylah! Our wedding cake was made by taylah and it was absolutely delicious! Couldn’t have gotten the detail more spot on than what we wanted! So friendly and the attention to details is outstanding!

15/12/2024: Extremely professional with how quick the response was, helped put together the perfect wedding cake for us and on top of that it was delicious! Could not recommend enough

10/06/2026: I’m usually far too lazy to leave reviews, but this experience earned one. We’re members of the hotel swimming club and stopped by for dinner after a swim. It happened to be my husband’s birthday, so I politely asked if we could have a nice table by the window. The welcome was: “If you wanted a better table, you should have booked in advance.” Strong opening act. The restaurant was nearly empty, but we stayed. In hindsight, that was our second mistake. The only star goes to the view, which is absolutely spectacular. Food-wise: the chowder tasted like the fish had given up days ago, the mussels came in a mysterious milky sauce without any taste, the beef was decent, and the seafood tagliatelle was the real masterpiece—overcooked pasta swimming in what looked and taste suspiciously like recycled chowder. I’ve attached a photo of the almost untouched plate. To be fair, the waiter offered to remake it, but by then we just wanted the bill and an escape route. What puzzles me is how a hotel in such a stunning location, with such incredible views, good table service, can make food this poor and seem perfectly okay with it. My advice: enjoy the scenery, then spend 15 minutes getting to The Bulman or take a taxi into town and visit ANY pub. Your taste buds will thank you.

15/03/2026: Had a Mother's Day lunch special here today and the whole experience was subpar from start to end (probably my worst meal out in a very long time!). The three courses were extremely disappointing, were served luke-warm and as though they had been cooked earlier in the day, just waiting to be handed out as people were sat at their tables (we were served our starters within minutes of placing our order....). Unfortunately, nothing tasted freshly prepared or even presented in a nice manner - for the price point being charged, we were expecting a higher standard and were disappointed to receive a below average meal and service. Would not recommend!

07/04/2026: I liked it, everything was perfect. 👍

08/12/2025: This place used to really good & we used to get take out here about once every 8 weeks or so for years. We went back last Friday night & ordered 4 mains 4 nans & two starters & drinks etc… The food was shocking…. It was all inedible except the starters. Everything was loaded with salt even the rice. The nan bread wasn’t even baked. Long story short €94 down the drain. Won’t be visiting again

16/03/2025: Delicious food in a lovely atmosphere the food was excellent there is a great choice service excellent and some good music

20/10/2024: Great traditional Irish Pub, good beer and company
