Black Pig Winebar
Kinsale
12/01/2026: Incredible food, incredible interior and exterior, great vibes. Very fair pricing and really nice wine and bonus my wife looked beautiful 😍
09/01/2026: Our favourite wine bar worldwide.
Having sampled wine bars on five continents it’s always a pleasure to return to Kinsale and experience The Black Pig.
One of the longest wine lists I have ever seen and caters for all tastes and budgets.
Make sure you book as there may not be room if you pop in on chance, but they will always try and fit you in.

Ohk

13/03/2026: Honestly, my local colleagues and friends were absolutely right — this might just be the best brunch in Cork. I had the Turkish Eggs Flatbread (full plate) with halloumi and chorizo, plus a regular mocha, and it was brilliant.
The eggs were perfectly cooked with that lovely jammy centre, sitting on creamy yoghurt and topped with beautifully grilled halloumi and rich, flavourful chorizo. It was incredibly satisfying. The whole plate looked gorgeous too — such great colours. I also really enjoyed the little salad on the side, especially the pickled onions and the fresh greens (watercress maybe?).
But the biggest surprise for me was actually the flatbread underneath — unbelievably soft and fluffy, perfect for soaking up all those amazing flavours.
Absolutely delicious. I’ll definitely be back. Highly recommend if you’re in Cork and fancy a proper brunch. 😊
05/03/2026: This place was the highlight of my Irish experience. It was recommend to us by the instagram influencer gods themselves. While I’m not religious, I did hear the voice that day as I bit into the breakfast burger.
The poached eggs busted upon the sausage patties, and so did I when the jalapeño jam hit my tastebuds. The delectable combination of spicy and sweet was unlike anything I had ever experienced in my mouth. Insane work. Unreal. Have been dreaming about the burger since I finished. A man or America could never.
Special shoutout to the workers. Who not only blessed our hearts with their kindness, friendliness and hospitality, but also our eyes.
Until we meet again, magical kinsale breakfast burger.
Slainté.

The Old Bank House
Kinsale
08/02/2026: What a lovely spot. Rooms are amazing as are the staff. The Cafe at the entrance is also excellent. Staff, food and atmosphere just lovely. Well worth a visit and stay.
15/01/2026: No hot water, beautiful location with dated rooms (vintage) which is what we expected but no hot water either day and someone entered our room while we were in bed without knocking or being invited in. Not good enough

Dinos
Kinsale
10/01/2026: Lovely food, but despite the restaurant be empty they didn't want to split the bill for a table of 9.
08/01/2026: Came here for the Fish & Chips we enjoyed a year ago. Unfortunately, the waiting staff was extremely unmotivated. (Gave us a drinking cup: "what is that?" "I don't know, I don't pour the drinks")
Really takes some of the fun out of going out to eat.
Chips were a bit overfried, mushy peas bland. I liked the fish, even though it was not exactly obvious to me whether I actually got the "larger" fillet as described for "Dino's Special".
