Been coming here for a while now, and the Beamish is always spot on. Never had a bad pint, which is saying something. Food&#39;s decent too, the comfort stuff hits the spot when you need it. Caught a rugby match here last week, good craic. Place gets busy but it&#39;s part of the charm. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and want a proper pint without any fuss.

Solid spot for a quick bite. Got the pasta, it did the job. Place was busy so service was a bit slow, but the food came out alright. Wouldn&#39;t mind coming back if I&#39;m in the area.

Been coming here on and off for the past year. The steak was cooked exactly how I asked, medium rare, and the chips were proper crispy. Place gets busy around 7 so you might wait a bit for a table, but it&#39;s worth it. Same quality every single time, that&#39;s why I keep coming back.

Solid whiskey selection here. Tried a peated Islay I&#39;d never heard of and the bartender knew exactly how to talk about it. Outdoor seating was a bonus, though the street noise got a bit much.

Full Irish breakfast came out hot and quick, on proper warm toast. That&#39;s exactly what you want on a cold morning. Staff were sound, no fuss. Place is small but has a decent buzz to it. I&#39;d say it&#39;s a solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and need something filling without the wait.

Stopped in before a show at the Opera House. Place was packed but they found us a table anyway. Had the pizza and fajitas, both were decent. Service was quick and the staff were sound. Nothing fancy but it did the job for a pre-theatre feed.

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.

The smoked duck breast was spot on&mdash;properly pink, decent fat render, and that cherry glaze actually cut through instead of just sitting there sweet. Cocktail list looked interesting but I stuck with a pint. Portion size was fair for the price. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back just for that duck again.

Stopped in for dinner last week and ordered the fish of the day. Really fresh, cooked simply, no fuss. Got a window table which was nice for people-watching. Service was friendly enough, though we did wait a bit between courses. Portion size felt right for the price. I&#39;d come back if I&#39;m in the area again.

The mix doner platter was a proper feast&mdash;lamb and chicken both tender, plenty of flavour. Sides were decent too. Finished with tiramisu, which was nicely balanced, not too sweet. Prices felt fair for what you get. Only thing is the place gets busy, so you might wait a bit for a table.

The tagliatelle al rag&ugrave; was proper Italian, not the usual tourist stuff. Reminded me of my nonna&#39;s cooking. Pasta had the right bite.

Stopped in for a late lunch and the lamb really caught my attention &mdash; cooked properly, still juicy, not overdone like most places do it. Staff were sound, no fuss. Menu&#39;s simple enough, nothing fancy, but that&#39;s grand. Place has a relaxed vibe, though it did get a bit busy around 1. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back for that lamb again.

The Penne Arrabbiata here is proper comfort food&mdash;you can tell they don&#39;t mess around with the ingredients. I popped in on a Saturday evening and there was live jazz playing, which made the whole place feel a bit special. Only thing is it got fairly busy, so we waited a little longer for the food. Still, I&#39;d go back for that pasta.

Taco fries were solid, really tasty. Chicken shawarma&#39;s pretty basic though, mostly purple cabbage, but still good. That 2-for-1 kebab deal between 12 and 4 is the real winner. Can&#39;t argue with that price.

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.

Stopped in for dinner on a whim. Place was clean and the guy at the counter was sound. Got the burger, it did the job. Nothing fancy but you know, solid enough for what it is. Wouldn&#39;t mind going back if I&#39;m in the area again.

Bit of a wait to get served, but the sandwich itself was solid. Good bread, decent filling. Place feels more like a casual cafe than a 4-star hotel spot, which caught me off guard. Fine for a quick bite if you&#39;re in the area, just don&#39;t expect anything fancy.

Stopped in for a quick bite and grabbed a few pizzas to share. The team sorted out a big order without any fuss, which I always appreciate. Food came out quick and hot. I had a glass of red with mine, and it did the job nicely. Solid spot if you&#39;re in the area and want something easy.

The kung po chicken here is proper good&mdash;one of the best Asian dishes I&#39;ve found in Limerick. House fried rice was fresh too.

Early bird menu is decent value, food came out quick enough. Staff left us alone which I appreciate. Place had a nice buzz even on a quiet evening.

Tried their own stout for the first time - really solid. The covered beer garden is a nice touch, especially when it&#39;s drizzling. Staff let me sample a few before picking, which was handy.

Came here with a few friends after work and honestly the rooftop area is the main draw. We grabbed some drinks and just hung out while people bowled below. Got a bit loud later in the evening but that&#39;s kind of the vibe. The arcade games are a nice touch too. Would go back if someone else picks the spot.

Open 24 hours, which honestly saved me the other night when nothing else was open. Got the hot chocolate with the chocolate stick&mdash;nice touch, melts right in. Also tried the Moroccan tea, proper good. Place was quiet enough to sit and chill for a bit. Will be back if I&#39;m stuck late again.

Been coming here for years. Food&#39;s still solid, portions are decent. The specials rotate often enough that it doesn&#39;t get boring. Service has slowed down a bit lately&mdash;waited longer than usual for the bill last visit. Not a dealbreaker though. Still one of the more reliable spots in the area for a straightforward meal.

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.
