Reviews of Sicilian Delights

C. S. S. N.

I don’t have a sweet tooth. Stumbled upon this lovely corner cafe, ordered their pistachio & chocolate cannoli and a hot chocolate. Hot chocolate was a tad too sweet for me. Cannoli filling was full, prefer the chocolate flavour. Overall 5 stars as the sweetness wasn’t overwhelming (doesn make you mad thirsty)! Service was awesome ;) do sit upstairs esp on a hot day

Hazelnut Chocolate Cheesecake. 🥰 Affordable coffee & cakes, friendly staff and nice atmosphere!

H. P.

I’d never had a cannoli before, and my roommate said she only ever buys them from Sicilian Delights as they’re authentically made there so I decided to try it. They were.. AMAZING!!! So so good! The pistachio one (green) was to die for!! And the chocolate and white one (can’t remember the filling) were also so good!! I could eat ten of these! It was my first time eating from Sicilian Delights, but if these cannolis are anything to go by, I’ll definitely be back to try more of their food! Would absolutely recommend this place, get the pistachio cannoli!!

A really nice cafe near UCC, on Magazine Road Cork. Friendly, proffessional staff. Very good coffee. They do paninnis, pastas and salads and cakes. Including vegetarian options. Open monday to saturday. Very clean. Outside seated area. Highly recommended.

One of the best places in cork to eat or simply get a pastry with coffee, always super fresh and made from scratch. Highly recommended

S. G.

We went there Saturday morning and all of our food was prepared the day before and a little chewie, which is quite sad as the overall taste wasnt bad. The coffee was very good. You can get things that aren't served anywhere else in Cork. This is an interesting spot and I will try it again on another occasion.

G. K.

Had the best hot chocolate here! Worth visiting!

V. S.

Being a sicilian myself I felt I had to try this café, my Irish and Italian friends were talking about. So I decided to go there with my family for a Saturday lunch. I was pleasently surprised of the place and the menu they offered. We decided to go for panini with salsiccia, caprese salad and mini cannoli with chocolate. We liked them all, especially the cannoli. We ordered lemonade and red orange juice from Etna area. It was nice to sit al fresco. I felt almost like home (Sicily) with the Irish weather. Highly recommended

K. K.

Absolutely loved this place from the first sight ! Great place to meet friends and have amazing food experience. Can’t wait to go there again.

Fantastic food, for a moment I felt like I was back home!!! For all the food lover this is the place to go!!! Can't wait to go back!!!

A. L.

This take away just brightened up my day: the best pasta and an incredible pistachio cheesecake for 11€ Loved it.

R. M.

The only place in Cork loyal with the real Sicilian recipes and tastes. Highly recommended for an amazing tasting experience.

M. C.

Awesome pastries and coffe, perfect for a good Italian breakfast

A. E.

I've tried Focaccia caprese, canoles and americano coffee. They're perfect. Also good price.

E. G.

My favourite cafe in Cork with the best Italian food I've eaten outside of Italy. The coffee is excellent, the pastries and cakes are freshly made and the panini/warm dishes are delicious. I have tried nearly everything on the menu and have never been disappointed. There are also daily specials which are always really inventive. The staff are so friendly and welcoming. Inside is nice and cosy with nice decor and you can also sit outside. When the sun is shining you almost feel as if you are in Italy. If it's busy when you arrive it really is worth the wait. I cannot recommend this place enough.

Good food, fair price, tiramisu cake is very tasty

T. C.

Such a cool place,great coffee

P. G.

An absolute gem. Some of the best pastas I've had outside of Italy. Don't get me started on their custard sweet raviolis 👌👌👌

m. S.

Best coffee around UCC, great value for money.

D. C.

What a gem of a place, a real delight! Come for the treats and I promise you'll be back for lunch, but do, go for the treats, they are devine

R. A.

The deserts there are so yummy! 😋 I also like the traditional Italian dècor I never had better Brownies at any place ever than this place 😍 would always love to pick up some, with ice cream

S. D.

Great coffee and excellent food. On a warm day the outdoor seating is lovely.

K. L.

Lovely cafe, great coffee

R. F.

Absolutely love this place, was about to call it a hidden gem, but it’s no secret, it can fill up fast during a lunchtime rush, especially the outdoor area when the weather is brilliant. The staff are exceptionally courteous, friendly and have great attention to detail, thank you guys so much!! And last but not least the food is amazing! Everything from the little almond biscuits, the paninis and their pasta dishes, I have tried and have always been impressed and satisfied.

E. L.

Very friendly staff and great location near University College Cork. Lovely coffee and nice variety of food, both healthy and sweet. Opening times that suit all timetables. This spot is well worth the short walk up Highfield Avenue. Also close to The Lough.

a. p.

The most authentic Italian food I have ever eaten. It is a tiny cafe with an extremely friendly owner who ensures fresh food is prepared with the best ingredients everyday. The desserts are a kill and the sandwiches can make you swoon over them. My personal favorites are the pastas. Do look out for their specials everyday and definitely do not miss the COFFEE out :D

c. m.

SSHHHH.....DON'T TELL EVERYONE Lovely Coffee. Pastas are only fantastic. Busy spot but always seem to have room for a few more. Can't say a bad word. Always licking my lips and very reasonably

J. L.

Absolutely incredible cafe - beautiful, freshly made pastries, pastas, and exquisite Sicilian fare. The staff are friendly and the coffee is fantastic. The owner is an Italian chef who takes his cafe seriously, and it really shows. If you're looking for amazing food or a great place to grab a coffee and a snack near UCC, Sicilian Delights is the undisputed best.

L. M.

We enjoyed a delicious panini brownies and coffee definitely a must for those who haven't sampled the delights at this cafe

B. R.

Have passed this place numerous times... kept meaningbto stop. Actually thought it was just a coffee shop...pleasantly surprised that its fae more. Only had a coffee but saw some of the dishes on offer... yes please

I. S.

If you would like to eat nice italian meals, I recommend to go and visit sicilian delights. With a small price you can get a nice taste of Italy. Recommanded to the pistachios cream lovers!!!

S. R.

Very cosy and an authentic italian cafe. Staffs are amazingly nice and friendly. have loads of option for vegetarians. Must try is the pesto gnocchi. pastries and food are fresh and very delicious. Suitable for students, as the prices are very reasonable and doesn't burn a hole in the pocket.

B. B.

'Delights' is not just in the name but in everything these guys do; coffee, gnocchi, paninis... you name it it's good! Expect a line on good days and nowhere to sit at busier times but that really shouldn't stop you from popping in - get a take away, it's well worth it!

m. s.

Nice Sicilian food. Must try

J. D.

Friendly staff that give full attention to every meal and coffee. The food is of the highest standard and different to any cafe in cork. The coffee is just beautiful, and there is no lack of authenticity in this place; has the atmosphere of a Mediterranean cafe in the middle of cork. Would recommend to a friend, and even if you're not my friend, I'd still recommend it. Gowanisaid.

C. O.

Great little spot and much needed in the area! Fresh pasta available to take away makes a great dinner. Staff are lovely and it's a fantastic spot for a coffee on a sunny day.

B. A.

An authentic Sicilian experience. Great coffee, delicious cakes & lovely paninis. Highly recommended.

E. O.

Gorgeous coffee, pastries, food, setting and staff! Really reasonably priced and lovely for a quick espresso or an extended lunch. They have soya milk too and free papers for reading.

S. K.

I had a latte along with a custard cannoli and it was really nice. I was there about four in the afternoon so I was able to sit down and enjoy the coffee and read the paper. Providing the papers to read is a great touch

O. K.

Authentic Italian coffee that shouldn't be missed. Very helpful and welcoming staff. Open for early coffee and lovely for lunch in or to take away.

s. s.

Amazing food, finally a tasty cuisine in Cork!!! Just seeing you can feel the freshness of the food. I highly recommend this place for a quickly lunch or relaxing cup of coffee with some of the delicious cakes.

Never been to Italy but if the food and coffee is as good as Sicilian Delights I be very happy there. Best coffee in Cork. Pastries different class. All sound in there too.

H. Č.

Reluctant to make this place even more popular, but I’ve got to say that I loved everything about this place. Great panino for a fair price, lovely staff, brilliant coffee and desserts.

R. O. k.

This place is a fine coffee shop/eatery .... regularly shoot a coffee at lunchtime here and they offer beautiful Italian style pastries . Highly recommend visiting and staff are always pleasant and quick with service .

p. b.

Good place with great Italian food at a decent price. When it’s sunny, it’s worth to stay outside in the tables to enjoy a great Mediterranean meal. A bit small but absolutely enjoyable. It’s close the Ucc, not far from Fitzgerald park
