Copper Grove
Bandon
11/09/2026: It's my 4th year staying here in a row. I'm down in Bandon to take part in the cancer charity fundraising event at the nearby airsoft site Absolute Airsoft. The food in the bar and restaurant area speaks volumes about the care a attention from the chief and kitchen staff. The bar staff as always friendly and know their way round the bar and how to pour a good pint. The floor staff helpful and polite and very knowledgeable about what's on the menu if your looking for a recommendations of what to eat. The rooms are as always clean and well maintained. With a price per night not be beaten and 8 rooms, 4 single and 4 doubles. Highly recommended.
03/09/2026: Being a South London lad it was amusing to chat with a North London lass. All joking aside, everything was great and will definitely visit when back in Ireland.

Jake's
Bandon
22/08/2026: I’ve been to Jakes for breakfast quite a few times and I’m always happy to go for their fry-up, which is consistently good. On my most recent visit, though, I decided to try something different because of their summer breakfast specials.
I’m not usually a huge fan of avocado and eggs on toast, but for €10 including tea or coffee, I thought I’d give it a go. I’m so glad I did because this was by far the tastiest version of avocado and eggs on toast I’ve had so far! The combination of the creamy avocado, eggs, feta and roasted tomatoes was absolutely delicious, and it was really nicely presented too. It’s not something I would normally choose, but I would 100% order this again.
Definitely worth checking out if you’re looking for a good-value breakfast in Bandon.
24/07/2026: Perfect place for the family if you are hungry and just want a good filling meal with a desert fresh from the bakery. I highly recommend the salmon carbonara it's delicious the best I've ever tasted. Great staff good atmosphere a mixture of locals and tourists. Good value for money great menu. I highly recommend this place even if you just want a coffee.

Bayleaf bistro
Bandon
15/08/2026: Nice food, but I found it a bit expensive and the portion size wasn’t exactly huge. 5euro for a pint of water is like something you’d see in Italy or France. Friendly staff.
11/08/2026: I visited early August with my husband, our toddler and my mother-in-law, and I’m so glad we decided to give it another try after not having been in years.
I ordered the roast special of the day, which was lamb shank, and it was a huge portion! I struggled to finish it, but it was absolutely delicious. The gravy in particular was divine, and I always think you can tell a lot about a restaurant by its gravy 😂. This one definitely passed my test!
The others had fish and chips, which I of course had to sample too, and they were very tasty.
The service was quick and friendly, and I really liked the atmosphere. It’s a lovely, smaller restaurant, and the noise levels were low enough that we could comfortably enjoy a conversation while eating, which is always a bonus when dining with family.
Overall, we were really happy with our meal and the experience. I’d absolutely recommend Bayleaf Bistro and would happily return.

Oak Fire Pizza
Bandon
18/08/2026: Updating my review. It is now August 2026. I order pizza here I collect. Love this pizza place as I get good pizza for my dietary issues. I am gluten intolerant, allergic to dairy and soya protein. I love their gf bases. I went somewhere else and they use bought in frozen gf bases yuck (sona in cork). Their pizza does me for two dinners. The gluten free base does not have a base with thick crust at the edges like the non gluten free bases but it is delicious I love the bases are thin, crispy. The toppings, you get a generous amount. I do miss the pulled ham that has not been on the menu for a while. The non dairy non soya cheese is nice. I like if I make 10 orders I get a free pizza when I order using their app available on Google Play store. If you are celiac they advice you not to eat the gf pizzas just encase you get any bit of gluten as the kitchen makes food with gluten too. I am gluten intolerant and never had a reaction to their gf pizza base. I usually also order their Belguim cookies, one each for my parents. They come one in a small plastic bag. They are hot, easy to break when I get them so when I get home I put them in the freezer a few minutes, them fridge before my parents eat them.
04/08/2026: Real wood fired pizza just like in italy (im italian) wonderful pizza every ingredient was fresh and really tasty especially the basil wow !!! And a really friendly service !!!

Katch Oriental Food
Bandon
26/08/2026: We decided to give Katch Oriental Food in Bandon another try since the business has recently changed ownership, and we were pleasantly surprised by the value on offer.
They currently have a great online deal for €20 called the Dinner for 1, which includes any starter, any chicken or beef main, a side of rice or chips, and a can of soft drink. There were three of us ordering, so we each went for the deal.
I had the dumplings with soy sauce, chicken Thai green curry, fried rice and Diet Coke. The dumplings were tasty and the soy dipping sauce was lovely. The Thai green curry was also very good.
Eric had the chicken satay skewers, chicken in black bean sauce, fried rice and Diet Coke. The satay had a lovely flavour, but unfortunately the chicken was extremely chewy and the texture actually made it feel as though it hadn't been fully cooked. Because of that, it wouldn't be something I'd order again. The black bean sauce and fried rice were both good, though.
Dad had the chicken cheese spring rolls, chicken curry, chips and Diet Coke. The chicken cheese spring rolls were delicious and the curry was good too. The chips were okay, although they could have done with a little more cooking.
We were also given a small complimentary bag of prawn crackers, which was a nice gesture, although unfortunately most of them seemed quite soft and stale.
Overall, there were some definite hits and a couple of misses. The €20 deal is very good value, and the curries, dumplings and chicken cheese spring rolls were all enjoyable. Hopefully the issues with the satay chicken and prawn crackers were just a one-off, as there is definitely potential here following the change of ownership.
