The best restaurantsof irish in Cork city council

19/03/2024: We had booked for 3 people but only got towels for 2. At dinner we sat in a walk-through room that wasn't that nice and they couldn't move us around even though it looked like everything was free in another room... The service was OK but I would have expected better. The breakfast buffet was not recommended! The cheese was no longer good🫣 and the selection and quality did not correspond to a 4 star hotel. The elevator was the worst, it almost knocked me out 😅😱 the door just closes regardless of whether you're all the way in or not... If I hadn't jumped away quickly enough I would probably have broken something in the door... I was really hoping for more, I was too hyped by the pictures 🤷🏽‍♀️

19/03/2024: Nice quiet relaxing hotel ...food excellent.

02/04/2024: One of the best hotels I’ve ever stayed in. More than a hotel, an experience! You can tell the staff are taken care of well and they shine because of it. Brian was particularly helpful and made my stay very special. The hydropool over looking the river is incredible, as are the rooms and the food. Will come back any chance I get!

30/03/2024: Great food. Beautiful rooms. Clean. Friendly. Warm and welcoming. Hotel located very close to Cork University Hospital. Price of a pint of Guinness €6.80

04/04/2024: Very allergy friendly. The staff member suggested they cook our meal separately to ensure it was safe for us. Great experience

01/04/2024: Excellent breakfast and coffee... lovely unassuming cafe.

25/03/2024: Overall the food was terrible. Chicken wings v average and service very rushed

16/02/2024: We were surprised by their basic bar foods but with a very special flavor quality, the girls were very friendly, the decoration and the atmosphere were pleasant.

03/04/2024: Have eaten here many times but last time I arrived, at 12.15 on a Friday , was told to stand waiting for a table (among our party was a 86 year old who has limited mobility) while others bypassed the queue and joined a carvery one. After a considerable time the addled server told us — and a few others— there was no table service and menu and that instead we should join the carvery queue which by this point was huge . The Elm Tree doesn’t take table reservations at lunch and while this means they pack them in, it’s not a system that is customer friendly and in fact it seems v inefficient for very frazzled staff. In the end, we left and went elsewhere. I’m not sure we will ever bother to go there again It’s a shame as on other occasions we’ve dined there and been happy enough, although the food offerings for a vegetarian are limited— and especially so if you’re obliged to go to the carvery and not allowed to get table service with a menu of other options

02/04/2024: Carvery food is always good here .Floor staff are excellent highly recommend 😋

29/03/2024: Best in cork i travel from the other side of the city it's so good fair play fellas

24/02/2024: Golden chicken Maryland topped off with pineapple fritters & potato pie .... What's not to love . Chefs kiss every time . Delicious

02/04/2024: My husband, 2 year old daughter and I stayed at Fota over the long Easter weekend. We were a bit underwhelmed as we were expecting a bit more from a 5 start hotel but all in all it was a nice stay. Not a lot to do with a 2 year old at the hotel itself, however, Fota Wildlife Park was great nearby. Pros: + comfortable Deluxe room - very comfortable bed, we slept great! + lovely surprises in our room (teddybear for our daughter, bottle of wine for us) + iPad in the room for hotel bookings/room service + Breakfast is nice with good service and a nice selection + Eastern Essence massage was lovely at the spa, the relaxation room after was also very nice + Turn down service is lovely + Staff are very friendly, however, you can tell many are still getting trained + Beautiful gardens around the hotel Cons: - Rooms are dated (we had a Deluxe room on the 2nd floor) - Food quality at the hotel is not 5 stars. Limited menu and pretty mediocre taste (we ate at the Clubhouse, Amber Lounge and ordered room service). - Not a lot of activities to do with a 2 year old on-site. The playground by the lodges is subpar. I wish there was an indoor activity area for little kids. - Hotel pool has to be booked in advance - a bit cold for kids - Spa is not organized efficiently - lots of going from rooms to rooms. No refreshments in the waiting area. There is a hydropool/outside sauna you can use if you have a treatment (otherwise you have to pay 15eur) I wish they informed you before your treatment you have this option so you come to the spa earlier. I didn't want to use the hydro pool/sauna after my relaxing massage. - Sauna outside does not work (its cold) and the steam rooms did not work when we were there.

01/04/2024: Near Cork Cobh. Great food recommend Monkfish, fillet steak in main restaurant and beef burger in bar restaurant. Rooms great. Book spa / meals / swim times can be done on app. Kids had a great time.

31/03/2024: Everything about the white horse is amazing the food, the drinks, the manager Paul is great so accommodating and nice. The only down fall is one of the female staff Bev, abrupt and rude. Never has any time to accommodate customers. Aside from that I can’t fault the white horse.

29/03/2024: We had a wonderful experience at the White Horse. Paul made us all feel very welcome especially our 90 year old aunt who thoroughly enjoyed her afternoon out. The food was delicious and the helpings very generous. Thank you to all at The White Horse and especially Paul for a most memorable visit. The Baileys Girl! :-)

24/12/2023: Bespoke lively sourced tasty bites

22/12/2023: Loved everything about Pigalle! The food was divine! The garden room was toasty and warm, where chats were easily had... Service was friendly and second to none... As a special treat! Head to Pigalle, you'll not be disappointed... Guaranteed....

03/04/2024: I went last bank holiday Monday with 5 friends. Almost all of us had the Birdy Basket- absolutely delicious. I had the bottomless brunch and it was phenomenal! My glass was never empty and service was sensational- staff were attentive without being disruptive. At the end of the meal, we agreed that we shall return.

03/04/2024: The loaded jalapeno fries were uncomplicated but surprisingly delicious. The fish and tartar sauce were very tasty as well. But the star of the show was the cocktail - shout out to the Sweet Dreams!

01/04/2024: Lovely place to visit, busy as food is delicious, I had chicken and pasta very tasty, hubby had chicken with mushroom sauce, only 4 pieces of small potato wedges but lots of veg. Dessert very tasty

01/04/2024: 3 adults & 3 children had dinner there on Sunday evening. Food superb & server most attentive & facilitated individual requests.

10/03/2024: We booked a table on Thursday at short notice. Have to say the staff were very accommodating. Food was really good. Overall a really nice experience. We will be back

07/03/2024: Took my husband for dinner on his birthday! It was a perfect night! The food was delicious and the service was exceptional - I highly recommend this restaurant 👌 I am really and truly impressed with the service!

04/04/2024: Has never changed over time. Love the character charm and friendliness. For soup sandwich and a chat. The only place to go in Cork.

20/03/2024: Great Sambo, great pint!!! Nice staff and will be returning

27/12/2023: Nice place, easy going staff craft beer on tap. Pizzas are delicious

21/11/2023: Great Bar, Good Hospitality (Dog friendly too).

17/03/2024: The place is great, excellent vibe, live music, nice staff, and the food is excellent. Fully recommend, it may get a bit noisy but it's understandable.

11/03/2024: A solid 4 star experience. I feel like there aren't many pubs like this around anymore. The food is what makes the Beergarden special, and then the staff who are friendly and chatty and helpful. Food is just SO good. Perfect roast dinners. None of the dishes are fancy but the menu has a good range to choose from and everything is tasty. Good for families and occasions. Prices are what you'd expect and portion size are big so value for money is solid👌
