The best restaurantsof irish in Cork city council

19/05/2026: Stopped by for a drink and whiskey and the following happened. We sat in the back bar and ordered two beers and wanted two Irish Whiskeys (Red Breast and Goldspot)there was none at the back bar so we went to the front bar and asked the female bartender for Red Breast or Gold Spot and in a snarky response stated, “ we don’t serve American whiskey. I guess she was not aware both whiskeys are Irish. This by far has been the least favorite pub we have visited in Ireland and I would not recommend it.

18/05/2026: A totally welcoming atmosphere, a top-notch space to watch the team's game in the private area.

16/04/2026: Amazing staff, food was lovely.

18/02/2026: Quite a nice little spot, have been here for a couple of private events recently. Good service and reasonably priced

18/04/2026: Really disappointing experience at Suttons Bar & Bistro. We were told they would provide plain pasta for the kids, but what arrived was just bland, unsalted boiled pasta with no care or effort put into it. When we asked for a sauce to go with it, they brought out chilli sauce — completely inappropriate for kids. We were also told the burger would come with cheese and sauce, but instead it was just bread with a few chicken tenders. Completely different from what was described. This was supposed to be a special dinner for my son’s 7th birthday, and it ended up being a real letdown. €95 spent on a meal that didn’t match expectations and spoiled an important evening. I wouldn’t recommend based on our experience.

05/04/2026: Relaxing, good staff, food was delicious.

16/11/2025: Consistently excellent food and service. There is a separate vegan/vegetarian menu with a range of good options.

06/09/2025: Fantastic hotel and restaurant. The food was top notch. Highly recommend this place. And you never know who you might meet

16/12/2025: Very disappointing outcome to this place. I had high hopes given the name & reviews..... But what it appears is that the place has been taken over, kept the name but taken all the smoked food off the menu. Rather than sample what is on the menu (what appears to be a basic attempt at smoked/ pit food..... Without the smoked/ pit food) I took my business elsewhere to avoid further disappointment.

29/04/2026: The sausgues were brunt but I didn't mind, when me and my mam got to our seats (the high up ones) there was crumbs and food left on the ground. The staff were very kind and nice though. But I do prefer the old Wilton restaurant.

22/04/2026: Visited "new" wilton bar. One word..disgusting. The food was reheated, dry, tasteless. I got vegetable soup that had a thick layer on top. Service was very abrupt. Could tell has not had hospitality training. New refurbishments have takes away from the charm of the wilton bar. No atmosphere. Pity

24/01/2026: The food is lovely but being regular customer just because of taste and still getting worst service ever, each time you visit them the more worst it goes.... they are not happy at all but yes food is nice come here only have patience to see their faces but never recommended😒🙄

01/01/2026: Very bad customer service never respect customer. The food we asked not spicy they made very spicy and not cooked. Never again

21/09/2025: Very unwelcoming staff. Food was sad and miserable. My pork roast was completely dried out, the rest of the food wasn't much better.

27/08/2025: Ate lunch here before flying out of Cork airport. We both ordered burgers. I noticed how quickly they came out and how fast other tables got their food too. I worked in hotels myself for years and that is not necessarily a good sign. The burgers themselves were ok but they seemed somewhat ready made. We both had upset stomachs by the evening time. I do not recommend. The staff and service were excellent. I can’t give more than 1 star because of the food issue.

23/04/2026: It's part of the city and always a great place to catch up with friends.

12/04/2026: Place was dead last night went in to watch the masters. Got told to get out after showing valid id. Bouncer is an absolute gomey and not my first time having a problem with him.

15/03/2026: On maps said it is open. However it was closed. Sunday 14:00

27/12/2025: My daughter & I visited the Quays bar today & had food that was reasonably good. Unfortunately the place was absolutely filthy, our shoes were sticking to the floor. Toilets were disgusting & absolutely filthy with no toilet roll & when we asked we were told there was none. I dread to think what the kitchen was like.

21/04/2026: Need to cook the chips properly

11/04/2026: I love dinos but for the last few weeks it went down hill i went today got chips was even just crisp no potoes in it the potoes pie s look rottwn when cooked the hamburger wasnt even the best

05/12/2025: Burnt fried egg . And dirty cutlery. FFS it cost enough too

21/11/2025: This food is gorgeous and the staff and the owner are really nice really nice place to get food, will be going back again next time we are in Cork, thanks for making us so welcome, and for looking after my sister who just came out of hospital! Thank you.

01/05/2026: Really friendly staff. Pizza was lovely. Definitely recommend

05/04/2026: Found this place half full but lively and quickly grabbed a table grabbed a beer for myself and a drink menu for my wife and they told me they were not allowed to make drinks even though there were 4 guys doing nothing behind the bar. Boss came by so asked him and said they were too busy. 1st time I heard that. Lovely place inside and looks fun. Didn't eat food but it looks good. Just DO NOT COME if you want anything but beer
