FAO of mac and other posters whove ventured to cork

so after paying money to wander around fota in the freezing fucking cold looking at a big empty field as all the animals are locked away you will then hop on the CART (Cork Area Rapid Transport) and down to Cobh for the tea, not forgetting to stop off at Little Island to see the industrial estate, grand family day

Nah, the train station is a good 20 main walk to little island industrial estate. You’d be stupid to stop there.

Looking for decent drinking spot in evenings close to metropole and activities with baba during dautime.

Thanks in advance[/quote]

Normally i would give you plenty of suggestions but seeing that you are a poster that i have taken a disliking too im not telling you any!Just stay away from Youghal that’s the main thing your types are not wanted around my manor!

I like Clancys on Princess Street, Larry Tompkins on the quay,the Corner House on Coburg Street, the Bodhran on Oliver Plunkett Street and many others.I recomend the Market Lane, the Electric, The Soho, Restaurant 14 A and Issacs for a bite to eat.

Have you never been to Barrack Street!

Should he bring a boat too? :rolleyes:

Art Foley can drown for all i care.:smiley:

The Other Place

Don’t go near Rossini’s Italian restaurant anyway, Art… A showering of double booking cunts with average food.

Market Lane is the job for a bite to eat.

Anyone that know’s anything would know that Rossini’s is a place to be avoided.Clancys across the street from it is grand for a bite to eat in the late evening.The Soho is one of those modern super pubs with plasma screen tv’s all over the shop but i think it’s a grand spot.

Im not sure is it still on the menu but the ham hock there is mental!Don’t order it if your not that hungry!

how old is the child art. that clearly makes a difference to where you would go.
fota is grand but its not for this time of year as its not cheap and you would be better off during the summer.
donkey sanctuary is in liscarroll which is about forty minutes out from the city up the limerick road but is free
lifetime lab is not a bad afternoon.
however at this time of year the weather will more than likely be shit so your best bet might be to have a wander through the english market and buy your lunch fresh cooked from one of the stalls then go to see frozen and have a nice meal in one of the restaurants on frenchchurch street as earlier mentioned (strasbourg goose being one)

if you like chinese the ambassador is excellent

Pat Buckley’s on Mulgrave St is the smallest pub in Cork. Great spot.

BC. Where is the best “chipper” in cork? The best place to get a milkshake around 12am? Is it still the college of commerce?
