The best restaurantsof french in Cork city council

17/07/2025: Last Saturday morning I took my friend to the restaurant for breakfast for her birthday. The weather was perfect, and we were seated outdoors, it was the kind of morning that makes you feel grateful just to be there. We ordered coffees and soon after, our food. The food did take about 40 minutes to arrive, but we didn’t mind too much at the time since we were enjoying a relaxed conversation. Unfortunately, things took a turn. About 10 minutes after our meals arrived, a waiter came over and let us know our table had been reserved for other guests and we would need to leave in less than 30 minutes. He explained that the waitress had forgotten to mention this earlier. There was no offer to move us to a different table. It felt rushed and awkward, I genuinely lost my appetite. About 15 minutes later, the waitress, who was lovely and very apologetic, came back and kindly offered to move us to the side chairs so she could prepare the table for the next guests. We couldn't go inside because we had a dog with us and we totally understood that. We agreed, but sitting there we no longer felt welcome, and I couldn’t enjoy the rest of the meal. I ended up taking it with me, paid, and we quietly left. It’s a shame how the situation was handled, it left us disappointed, especially considering it was a special morning.

08/06/2025: They squeezed us in on a busy Sunday morning! Excellent coffee and the best BLT I've eaten in years ... probably helped by the fried egg and the cajun chicken that the waiter suggest was "out of this world" - he wasn't wrong. Going back tomorrow for lunch 😋

07/06/2025: Overpriced, undercooked food. Staff not accommodating to multiple guest requests.

04/05/2025: Tried to eat there last night and it was PACKED! Had my dinner there tonight so…upon entering I was accommodated at a table that was reserved; yes I was informed it was reserve for 2 hrs later. Fair as I was alone so it wasn’t an issue. The staff were exceptional! So kind and considerate. My meal came SO fast & thank goodness for that because I was starving. My salad was fresh and tasty! Nice chunks of avocado too. My chicken supreme was SO SO GOOD! I normally don’t eat cauliflower so I gave it a taste tonight and ended up eating it. That goes to show on how well prepared everything was right down to the cauliflower. Highly recommend when in Cork!
