The scores of staff fly through countless carniverous Corkonians at a lightning pace. Don't leave without a cheese and onion pie. Beware impostors!

Really nice chips, thick, hot and greasy. Not for everyday but great for a treat every now and then. Burgers, fish and chicken as well but this place stands out for the quality of its chips.

Chicken drumsticks were "Raw", red meat inside breadcrumb coating. Peas Cold. Fish....Half cooked, due to too much batter coating on outside. We threw all food into Fire. This place is a "Hit&Miss most times. Chips can be nicely cooked and brown or Greasy. Concentrate more on cooking food properly than all the White Paper for wrapping! Wont be going there... More
