Stopped in for a sandwich and a pint. The bread was fresh, filling was decent sized. Staff were sound, didn&#39;t rush me at all. It&#39;s a solid spot for a quick bite if you&#39;re in the area. Mine was a bit messy to eat, but that&#39;s on me for picking something saucy. Pretty good overall.

Big spot, proper old-school pub vibe. Food portions are hefty for what you pay. Guinness tasted a bit thin though, not as good as other places around town. Still, decent enough for a feed.

Went in on a Friday night, they&#39;ve started doing food weekends now. Got the brownie, fair play it was deadly. Portion sizes are decent for what you pay. Place was busy enough but we got sorted. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back to try the rest of the menu.

Stopped in here for a coffee and an almond croissant after walking past the cathedral. Croissant was proper good, flaky and buttery. Coffee did the job. Place was busy enough but I found a seat by the window. Nice spot to just sit and watch people for a while. Not bad at all.

The wild mushroom and poached eggs were the standout. That sauce soaked into the toast just right. Got there right at opening, place was already half full. They don&#39;t take bookings so you&#39;re rolling the dice if you show up late. Portion was decent for the price too. Would eat that again.

The Reuben was solid&mdash;good quality meat and a fair portion for the price. Would&#39;ve loved a side salad to round it out, but it hit the spot.

The full Irish breakfast here is a solid shout if you&#39;re hungry. Portion size is proper, not one of those tiny plates that leaves you looking for a snack an hour later. Service was quick enough even though the place was packed. They split the bill for our group without any hassle, which is always a bonus. Only thing is it&#39;s not the cheapest, but you get what you pay for.

Stopped in for coffee and a slice of cake&mdash;the place has a proper artsy vibe, walls covered in art that&rsquo;s actually for sale. Coffee was rich, not bitter. Cake was decent, though a bit small for the price. Nice spot to kill an hour with a book from their shelf.

The porridge with the sweet chopped apples was proper comfort food. Soft, warm, and not overly sugary. Portion was decent for the price, which I always appreciate. Place itself was nice enough to sit in for a while. Simple breakfast done right, no complaints from me. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Decent spot for live music at night. Fish and chips with my dad was pretty good, service was quick.

We popped in for dinner without a booking and got a nice table near the window. The waitress was so patient explaining what was gluten-free, which I really appreciated. Food was tasty, nothing too fancy but well done. Only tiny thing was we waited a bit for the bill, but no rush on our end. Would happily go back.

The sourdough loaf used to be available on its own. Now it&rsquo;s only in their sandwiches. Bit of a letdown if you just want the bread.

Tiny spot but the window seats are lovely. Good for a quick coffee and a catch-up. Got a bit cramped when it filled up though.

The view over Cork at night is stunning, and the waiter really looked after us. Pricey, but worth it for a treat.

Stopped in for breakfast again&mdash;still solid. Eggs came out right, toast actually buttered properly, coffee hot. Staff let me sit with my paper without hovering. That&#39;s basically why I keep coming back. Nothing fancy, just dependable. Place gets busy around 9, so go early if you want a quiet table.

That brownie sundae with the Nutella swirl was dangerously good. I&#39;m from Chicago and I still keep thinking about it. Will be back for sure.

Stopped by for a late lunch and grabbed the grilled salmon with greens. Fish was fresh, flaky, not overcooked. That&rsquo;s the main thing for me&mdash;when a place gets the protein right, I&rsquo;m happy. Portion was decent too. Room was a bit warm near the window, but nothing a cold drink couldn&rsquo;t fix. Would come back if I&rsquo;m in the area.

Great spot to hit with the girls on a Saturday. Staff kept the prosecco coming and the vibe was buzzing. Just wish the DJ had started earlier than 5pm, we were ready to dance! 🥂

The quiche with side salad was proper tasty, just a bit small for the price. Interior&#39;s lovely though&mdash;warm and rustic, great spot to sit and chat with friends. Gets a bit loud later on, but that&#39;s the vibe 😄

The live music was the highlight for sure. Sound system sounded great, and the bands they book are solid. Stayed longer than I planned for another beer.

Lovely little spot with local art on the walls. Grabbed a coffee and sat on the sofa for a while, proper relaxing. Cake was decent too.
