In 1969 Youen Jacob arrived in Baltimore, a small fishing village in the South West of Ireland, on a fishing boat from his native Brittany. He went ashore to Sherkin Island and met and fell in love with his future wife on the same day.

Cool little cafe that do the best hot chocolates but even more so the best cheesey melts sandwishes a whole lot more besides. OPen eearly to late !! Very friendly staff and a good place to watch life go by either from the large window in the city centre or watching the river go by in the quay side joint. Great vibes and a good place !!!

We had a drink in the candle lit bar first, staff were friendly & polite. Ventured upstairs passing the kitchen into the quirky Silk Purse restaurant. We sat by the window with views to the river & city hall. We had puddings with sweet onion to, seared hanger steak with puttanesca and xips for main, my partner had teriyaki shark & rice noodles and we shared a poached pear & homemade vanilla ice cream and orange shortcake biscuits for dessert. Unbelievable experience! A great night all round.
DDDDDDDElicious pizza slice´s on the go. The idea came about from aninspirational European road trip so we love it even more. There are a few around the city but this one in particular was my favourite, cute staff as well of course !! Its all about street culture forward slash food so its a really nice mix. I recommend that you try everything lol. Good value, good service and great tastes. Bingo !
Some of the freshest, nicest, most lovingly-made food in the city. Absolutely everything, from the bread to the desserts, is homemade and organic and locally sourced whenever possible. The menu changes every single day depending on what's fresh and in season. And the staff are so friendly there too. If you want to taste the best food in Cork, and not have your pockets raped for the pleasure, head for Continental!
