The best restaurantsof fast food in Cork

05/10/2025: It’s a Chinese food shop with a buffet-style counter at the front. You can make your own box from the food selection: • Box A (€10): 3 items • Box B (€12): 4 items • Box C (€18): 5–10 items Drinks are separate (no meal deal). When you go in, pay first at the till — just say which box you want and if you’d like a drink. After paying, a staff member will make your box and you just tell them what food you want. If you don’t like what’s in the front, there’s also a kitchen menu where food is cooked fresh and you can ask to make it vegetarian, vegan, halal, or gluten-free. The chicken is halal, but fried items are cooked in the same oil as pork ribs. There’s no dairy in the food. There are limited vegan, vegetarian, and halal options from the front buffet, so if you have dietary needs it’s best to order from the kitchen menu instead, where they can modify things more easily. Staff are friendly and helpful. They take cash and card, and the portions are pretty big for the price. It can get busy around lunchtime, so try to go a bit earlier if you can.

23/08/2025: Got lunch there today and it was lovely. However, one of girls working there was so rude, I was actually flabbergasted at how she spoke to me, she told the girl who was serving up my food that I jumped the queue (which I didn't) I corrected her and explained that I was waiting for my food and didn't jump it. She got so angry, I told her there was absolutely no need to be rude but she continued with her rant. I've never in my entire life had anyone in retail/food speak to me like she did. She needs to reconsider her career choice in my opinion. Regardless of that, the food was really fresh and tasty.
