23/05/2026: Beautiful spot to eat, helpful staff but the famous stew lamb hardly had any taste

23/05/2026: Second time here — this time for lunch — and it definitely didn’t disappoint. From the welcome to the service and all the way through to the bill, everything was spot on. Had a really great time again and we’ll definitely be back. Plus, the food is amazing!

08/06/2026: Friendly people and great food.

15/05/2026: Great food huge portions I barley finished breakfast 1 on menu.

12/06/2026: Had a great meal and a fun time at this restaurant! We asked a few different people what their recommendation for a meal was and this consistently the 1st or 2nd choice. Did not disappoint!

07/06/2026: Absolutely amazing food. The team were so lovely and helped us with drinks and even had a birthday plate for my girlfriend. Reasonably priced for a long tasting menu with additional snacks

16/06/2026: We love Hayfield Manor, everything was beautiful but the best part was the amazing service and blue bikes!

15/06/2026: Stayed in 5 hotels on our trip this was our favorite by far.

20/05/2026: We both had a vegan starter and main and they were absolutely delicious. I'd get the same dishes again in a heartbeat.

06/05/2026: Great spot food was spot on too

18/05/2026: Not too far from Cork city centre stands a beautiful hotel on the banks of the river. Rooms are of a good size, clean and beds are very comfortable. Staff are lovely, professional and pleasant, and they can only bested by the food served. Everything from the goats cheese tartlet through to the incredible beef mains was nothing short of exceptional. To top it all off, a trip to the spa, including the outdoor heated (really warm) swimming pool. Overall, a really pleasant experience, and worth every moment.

09/05/2026: Booked the Kingsley for our son's communion and I can't fault anything.. the staff were amazing and my son even got a communion card and dessert from the Kingsley for his big day.. will absolutely be booking with the Kingsley again. Fantastic day

06/07/2026: Extremly dissapointed with food. How can you adverise real belgian waffles and serve frozen ones that weren't even properly reheated prior serving. Very sweet, only warm with nothing special. These frozen waffles are in every irish canteen served so how can this be their special morning treat. Dissapointed. Service was very good but they behavied like they were afraid of everything in there. Looked so streeesed even it was very quiet morning.

06/07/2026: Well done 👏 Well worth a visit 👏

01/06/2026: Think closer to a 4 star than a 5 star. Breakfast on the first morning was only ok. Full irish was over cooked and bacon was not good. Service very slow. Reception woke us up at 10.40 looking for a credit card number. It could have waited till morning as we were staying 2 nights but when I suggested this they didn't see to agree. Being honest tho the foor in Amber bar was very good and staff were lovely.

26/05/2026: Brilliant worth every Euro spent there

25/05/2026: Had Dinner at The Cornstore Last night ,Food and Service was exceptional and Thanks Max ,5 stars from us !

20/05/2026: This was our first time in Cork and when we asked a local where to get a great meal, they said Cornerstore Cork. And we were not disappointed. The food, service, and atmosphere was wonderful. A very nice place to dine with friends, family, or your significant other. Bon appetit!

10/07/2026: Such a relaxing place and such great choice

27/06/2026: We’ve been in Ireland for a week on vacation and this was far and away the best experience we had . Our meal was delicious, our service (Molly, Paula) was superb and John was an absolute gentleman. This place has got it down .Thanks guys for a great job!!!

24/05/2026: Very disappointed for being refused entry for wearing Cork jerseys kids traumatised!! Do not recommend!

22/05/2026: One of the nicest cocktails I have ever had. A1.

15/05/2026: Awesome service and great food.

14/05/2026: My family and I rented a private room for a storytelling and musical evening - and had a special menu prepared for our group. The experience we had was outstanding in every respect. The servers were professional and welcoming from the start. They were also very accommodating to food allergies and substitutions we asked for. The main server Bev was truly delightful. She was so friendly and made the evening seamless - from appetizers to dessert. The food itself was fantastic including the Roast of the Day and the incredible Homemade Apple Crumble. Could not have asked for a better experience!
