The tasting menu was lovely &mdash; the cod in champagne cream sauce really stood out. Duck was great too. Only thing is the room felt a bit cramped, but the food made up for it.

Tucked away in a quiet courtyard, really nice relaxed spot. Porridge was spot on, though I wish they&#39;d a better wine list to go with it. Still, great for a slow morning.

Came here with a few friends last week and honestly the chicken and burgers were spot on. Chips let it down a bit though, some were a bit sad and chewy, like they&#39;d been refried. Fresh ones would make such a difference. Still, decent spot for a catch-up, wouldn&#39;t say no to going back. 😊

Been coming here for a while now, and the fish and chips never let me down. Cod&#39;s always flaky, batter stays crisp without being greasy. Kids&#39; meal deal is decent too, keeps the little ones happy without breaking the bank. Portions are fair for what you pay. Not the cheapest spot in town, but you get what you pay for.

Chicken was proper good, staff sound. Retro decor gives it a bit of character. Price was fair for what you get. Solid enough spot for a feed.

Decent spot. Pasta had a nice little kick and the pizza was pretty good, though toppings were a bit light. Wine&#39;s a touch pricey but staff were sound.

Stopped in for a late lunch and went straight for the fish and chips. Massive portions, the batter was properly crispy and the fish was flaky. Mussels were fresh too, no complaints there. Place was busy but we got a table quick enough. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back to try more of the menu.

Stopped in for a quick drink and ended up staying longer than planned. The bar itself has a proper old-school feel, wooden stools and all. Service was friendly without hovering. Just a decent spot to sit with a pint and not be rushed.

Came back here again last week&mdash;still my go-to spot for a proper pint. Guinness was spot on, and the live music had the whole place singing. Staff remembered me too, which never hurts.

Handled our group of 10 no bother, even with kids and a coeliac. Butter chicken was the standout. Service kept up the whole night.

The fish and chips were spot on &mdash; crispy batter, fresh fish. Sat on the terrace with a view of the water, which made the whole lunch feel a bit special.

Came for the match on the big screens, ended up staying for the food. The fish chowder was proper&mdash;creamy, plenty of fish, not just potato filler. Chicken salad was fresh too, decent size for the price. Place was busy but we got our order quick enough. Solid spot if you&#39;re after a bite with the game on.

Decent spot in Cork for a drink. Bar had plenty of room and the staff were friendly enough. Seating area was comfortable too. Wouldn&#39;t mind stopping by again.

Loved watching the chefs at the open kitchen while we waited. Wood-fired pizza was solid, though the place got a bit loud by the end. Staff were friendly enough without hovering.

Came here on a quiet Tuesday night, place wasn&#39;t too packed. Got the lasagne and a glass of red. Pasta was proper, not the usual sloppy stuff you get around town. Chef actually walked out with the plates himself, which I thought was a nice touch. Prices are fair for the portion. Only gripe, service was a bit slow between courses. Still, it&#39;s a solid spot if you&#39;re in Cork.

Cool spot with a proper urban feel. Been a few times now and the food holds up. Nice having the outdoor bit out back too. Good wine list to work through.

Seafood chowder was spot on. Loads of fresh fish, proper hot, and the brown soda bread was class. Cozy enough spot for lunch.

Full Irish was proper good, coffee hit the spot too. Place was packed but the staff kept things moving. Best brekkie I had all trip.

Stopped by for coffee and ended up chatting with the owner for ages&mdash;he&rsquo;s a retired pilot with some great stories. The book exchange corner is a nice touch too. Place has real character, not something you find in every town. Would go back just to see what new books showed up.

Stopped in for the ribeye and it was cooked just right. Peppercorn sauce on the side worked well with it. Wine list had a few European picks that weren&#39;t badly priced. Place was busy but we got a table easy enough. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back to try the sirloin next time.

Booked a table last minute and they were so sound about it. Got the steak and it was proper tasty, decent size too. Only thing is the place got a bit loud later on, but I&#39;d still go back. Good spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something filling without breaking the bank.

The homemade desserts are honestly the reason I&rsquo;d come back. We were so full from dinner but still managed to share two plates and no regrets. Kind of wish they had a bigger portion though, I could&rsquo;ve eaten way more 😅 Great spot if you&rsquo;re out with friends and want something sweet after.

Stopped by for lunch while in Kinsale. Seafood was fresh, clearly local. Place was packed so service lagged a bit, but the food made up for it. Solid choice if you&#39;re in the area.
