The Glass Curtain
Cork
09/03/2026: Always a treat..
Beautiful food🫶
27/02/2026: Myself and my girlfriend spent the night for her birthday and were served by Liam and had a spectacular night. We had the tasting menu, throughout the whole night Liam was amazing at informing us of the coming dishes and wine pairings, making the meal an engaging experience alongside a fulfilling meal. Between himself and Tom on the bar, we were wined, dinner, and entertained. We had a delicious experience and will be back again.

The Long Valley
Cork
20/02/2026: Great atmosphere here an iconic pub in cork
08/02/2026: Popped in for a drink and sandwich after hearing great reviews , we were refused service stating we “were after too many” absolutely sober On a Sunday afternoon with shopping bags, all because a man ordered a gin & tonic and not a pint because apparently a sober man never orders a gin as stated by the bar man. Horrified by the way we were treated in our own city. Won’t be returning.

Hayfield Manor Hotel
Cork
15/03/2026: Absolutely amazing hospitality, grounds and rooms. Drove up and they took care of everything else, offered us tasting of a complimentary locally sourced mead at check in while bringing our entire families luggage from. Everyone was friendly with a smile, kind comment and offers of recommendations if asked for. The bar had a wide and brilliant selection of Irish whiskeys in particular with the rest of their drinks. I can't recommend this hotel any higher, just amazing all around.
11/03/2026: Excellent! I was not expecting such a lovely place! Beautiful room and breakfast buffet! We only stayed one night and would have loved to stay longer.

The Spitjack, menu
Cork
20/02/2026: Something for everyone. Great Irish fare, prompt, cheerful service; lively but not crazy. The place was cooking.
20/02/2026: Waited an hour for food to be served. The food then came out wrong for my meal which I sent back. Infairness they cooked a fresh one but by the time it was ready everyone I was with was ready to go.
We payed but the waitress called us back and double charged us.

The Kingsley
Cork
20/03/2026: My daughter Ava played music there with her friend a number of times. She is a very professional accomplished musician. She got great feedback from the customers who enjoyed the musc. The Kingsley used her and never laid her or her friend for the music performance 's. This behaviour cannot and should not be tolerated by this establishment. This is iny opinion is exploitation. These girls are now dissalussioned. This behaviour is totally unacceptable.
