Gastronomical Wonders: 10 Best Places To Eat In Cork, Ireland - Updated 2021
"Having already won the hearts of Dubliners with their outlets on Dame Street and in Rathmines, Umi Falafel opened their first branch outside the capital earlier this year, on Academy Street in Cork. Their handmade falafel, cooked in low-fat rapeseed oil, is the centrepiece of the menu – you can get it in a sandwich of Palestinian pocket bread or a wrap, or you can try some falafel ‘bites’, either plain or stuffed with mozzarella cheese. These are best accompanied by something from their tempting mezze menu, or one of an array of healthy, freshly prepared salads."
"With branches in both Dublin and Belfast, if you’re looking for an authentic falafel experience then look no further than Umi Falafel. Umi is Arabic for “mother” and thus gives an indication of the care put into each order placed in the restaurant. Falafels are freshly made before your eyes and are made from a combination of 15 healthy and natural ingredients."
"I didn’t make it to Umi Falafel but according to HappyCow, they have plenty of options!. There’s also a location in Dublin and Belfast. ESSENTIAL INFOAddress //11/12 Academy St, Centre, Cork Hours // 12-9 Website // www.umifalafel.ie"
"143V is not in the city center, you’ll have to walk for 10-15 minutes towards the train station to find it, but it worths a visit. The brunch menu offers toasts, porridge, chia pudding, tofu scramble, pancakes… The breakfast bagel (see picture above) is the best option if you’re in the mood for Irish breakfast. Do you need a boost of vitamins?"
"143V is the only all-vegan restaurant I visited while in Cork. That’s because it was the only one. I was so pleased with this adorable little spot."
"Cafe Gusto is another spot that’s said to dish out some of the best brunch Cork has to offer. It was established in 1999 and was once the famous O’Brien coffee shop that operated since 1941. The creative force behind the cafe, Marianne, had travelled extensively around the world before returning to Cork in1998."
"Today, you can find Nando’s restaurants, their addictive sauces and tasty grocery range right around the world. Whether you’re a first-time visitor, or an old friend, they can’t wait to welcome you and serve you a delicious fix of PERi-PERi!"

"So these guys doing a brunch sharing platter which means we can’t ever eat anywhere else again because a brunch sharing platter is the pinnacle of life. That said, they also make their coffee using Badger & Dodo beans so maybe that’s the pinnacle of life?. Pretty hungry right now and not thinking completely straight… Get intoJoes+Bros for breakfast, brunch or lunch or all of them and make sure someone’s there to pick you up and roll you home."

From smoothie bowls to chorizo and cheese-loaded tater tots there is so much to choose from. Their Notorious P.I.G is a must-try, with smoked streaky bacon, black pudding, a fried egg served on ciabatta along with tater tots and siracha mayo."

"Built after the Norman Invasion of Ireland in the 12th century, Ballincollig Castle has a truly rich and fascinating history. During its peak, it was inhabited by the Barrett family, who was a prominent Irish clan that originated from the Normans; this family were incredibly influential in the local area and wielded a lot of power. However, though the castle was inhabited for centuries and played a critical military role, it was left to abandonment in the year 1690; it was not until 1857 when it was renovated by the Wyse family, who restored it back to its former glory."
