A short, 15-minute drive from the city centre – the quirky & gorgeous Workshop Tea Rooms is the place that serves “tea and cake at the end of the runway”. In the countryside just behind Cork airport, it’s run by two brothers who converted their dad’s old country carpentry workshop into a café that doubles up as a vintage furniture & curios salesroom. This little slice of joy is one of Cork’s best (or possibly worst) kept secrets.
A unique festival for Ireland, set in the charming setting of the famous foodie paradise, Ballymaloe House. Litfest is a food and drinks literacy festival, a weekend filled with inspirational stories, great writing, intriguing discussions, great speakers, music and dancing. It’s a place for foodies from all over the world to come together, share ideas, get inspired and celebrate their passions. A celebration of fine writing on the finest food and drink but also much more – the organisers say food literacy is “about understanding where the food you eat comes from, who produces it and if it is good for you”.
The famous black-painted island lighthouse in the quirky fishing village is hoe to the old fisherman's pub.

In the heart of the city, the long-established and very popular Jacob's offers fine food in a great setting, a big space, that still feels intimate and is just as welcoming for couples or for larger groups on a special occasion. If, for instance, you were looking for a special place for a milestone birthday celebration with a few close friends, Jacob’s could be the perfect option.
