We were glad to find The Castle open after a day of exploring and ending up at Blackrock. We only…read morestopped in for a drink, but the menu looked great and would have been a nice spot for dinner. The location is pretty far from Cork center, which makes it hard to reach without a car, but Uber does serve that area with a bit of a wait. We were there around 5PM, so the dining room was pretty empty and we had to wait a little while for the check as the staff was organising everything for the start of dinner service.

The Food, starting with that, is amazing and spectacular for the starters I had the Cauliflower…read moreBravas, spot on nicely baked or fried I am not sure how they cooked it, but it was amazing! The Roasted chicken was also a spectacular dish with the veggies on the side. My waiter was Ava and she was very blinded with my cousins birthday, Victoria where everything was handled very nicely and we had a great time. Lastly the dessert is the Vanilla bread with butter pudding very nice and smooth to finish it off,my favorite out of all dishes I had here! The ambiance was just in general amazing to have, modern style pls e to have also a look of the Blackwood Castle, recommend this place e fro sure if you want a view of the Lee River and epic food here too!

This is a place that could be truly great. Super eat-in and take away food ranging from a full…read morelunch to the tea & a piece of cake scene. The Burger, Sambos, Deserts, have all been sampled and are top notch. As is the take away brown bread, coffee cake and Chicken Stroganoff. Although it's a very small place, they have made the best of it and I've never been left waiting for a table. 1 BIG negative though - Service needs a real overhaul from the top down. The lady who is Manager / Owner (??) needs to crack a smile once in a while. The staff also need to be more attentive particularly on lunch hour when time is precious. It's not the easiest of places to get back to the link for those who are not especially local. Prices are also a little 'Celtic Tiger' otherwise it would have been a 4Star rating. That said, these problems are VERY fixable!!

Was on the Heritage Day trail around town and decided to take a break and it is hard to find a better place than this waterfront cafe. Not just for the coffee and service, always top class, but also for the ambiance of the area. Something going on here, almost always. On Saturday, the ladies were knitting for a cancer charity and the kids were limbering up while queuing for a national TV talent show. The sun was out and the riverside views were pleasant.

Hard not to spot Sandwich Club sitting right in the middle of Washington St. The modern decoration gives you a hint of what to expect: traditional dishes with a modern twist! They offer pizza, hot and cold sandwiches, soup and the unbelievable tasty pies. Vegetarians, celebrate: the spinach and white beans pie is very good - ask yourself that treat! If it may seem a bit pricey for some dishes, go ahead and order a meal deal of cold sandwich and soup. Also scored some extra points for caring staff, not being packed during lunch time and groups tables. Give it a try!
