Reviews of Son of a Bun
C. R.
Fantastic burger place. I've had the double cheese with home fries and a pint of Chieftain's.
The monthly specials are great with loads of other options to choose from
S. O.
This place is decent, you get a filling meal for a decent price.. but it doesn't quite make the 5 stars, While the burgers are tasty, I have tasted nicer elsewhere in the city, the presentation is great but you just get that feeling that there is a bit too much time spent on the preparation and thus time spent on taste is sacrificed. You will also need to wait a little longer for the burger.. The chips were a nice side but the balance of spice was unequal. Overall I did enjoy by meal and will definitely be recomeending it to people but there is still some room for improvement.

I had a huge expectation on this place. Heard a lot of positive reviews about this place and really needed to go once. It's very difficult to get a table here, personally I went there few times but couldn't find a table, so decided to go on a Monday evening still didn't get a table for 6 and sat outside on a cold evening. Though the heaters kept us warm would have loved to sit inside.
About the food it's worth trying. Had the chicken waffle burger, the bun was very very good. It was something which I have never tried, different and good one.

One of the best gluten free burgers I have ever had the pleasure of shoving down! Gluten free beer was a hit too. Staff were also very pleasant
J. E.
Really tasty food, probably one of the best burgers I've had! Quality was great at a really decent price.
Staff were great, my only criticism is I felt a bit rushed to leave so they could get the next people in (there was a big queue growing outside). As soon as I finished, my plates were taken and my bill was given - not sure if it was efficient service or a bit of a nudge out the door. Fortunately I was ready to go so I didn't ruin my view of them.

OMG! This place has to be visited if you want comfort food! We shared this giant chicken and waffle burger, delicious fries covered in melted cheese and bacon bits and mac n cheese with bacon bits too. Oh, and real milkshakes. We were stuffed! We could hardly stand upright walking out.
The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our bill came to €38 for the two of us but we had a full day's food in one meal so we were happy with that.
Definitely going back again.
W. P.
I got the "One burger" and it was one of the nicest tasting burgers I've ever had. The beef was so juicy and tender and the toppings on the burger were very tasty. I also got cheesy chips and bacon and they were very good. I will definitely be back
L. F. M.
I ordered the SOB burger. It was quite good but nothing especial. I tried better options around the city.
C. H.
We went there on a rainy Sunday afternoon and was blown away how good the burgers are!! We were so looked after by the staff. Our girls were kept busy with the free drawing paper and crayons. I ordered the SOB burger which was huge and so tasty, my wife ordered "The One" which was equal to the taste and size as mine.
We also tried the Oreo milkshake which rounded off the meal.
I highly recommend you try it if you haven't already! Will be going back!
I. M.
Great place, good food, friendly staff - loved the bunny t-shirts they're wearing.
G. L.
Went in, the server took great care of us. Suggested a better beer than I ordered which was lovely.
The monthly special burger (Welsh Rarebit I believe) was lovely. Food was out in a timely manner and myself and my partner enjoyed every bite of our meals.
A consistent, great value for your money place.
Menu itself has some staple burgers but I always like to try their new innovations which are always top notch.
l. o.
Went here tonight after the panto and have to say it was excellent. Started with getting a table for 5 and the server said we had to wait outside which was understandable and they had heaters, got our table and my daughter dropped her glass and it was no problem cleared up quick and reassured there was no issue. Food was perfect everything hot and fresh. Had 3 kids with us and didn't feel we had to keep them quiet and still very relaxed and calm atmosphere but have to say what makes going out for food ( beside the food ) was the staff have to say every single member of staff we spoke to was fun polite and friendly. Great experience will 100% recommend and return.
E. E.
My first time being in SOB, my partner has been raving about how nice it was so the first chance we got to visit after lock down we did. First off the layout of the outdoor seating was very tidy , staff were exteremly polite and helpful. Food could not be faulted in anyway. Impressive presentation and the flavour was amazing. My 3 year old cleared his kids meal and he loved the fresh fruit and icecream dessert . The churros with Nutella are to die for. Overall really happy with the meal and experience, was well worth the drive from Tipp. Will 100% be back again.
S. J.
Amazing burger, very friendly staff and good music playing too. Very nice vibe inside. No complaints will definitely go again
A. a. g.
I have to say this is one of my favourite restaurants here in Cork. The burgers are always delicious. The staff are always friendly and everything is just on point.
R. G.
Great place for a burger and a good side. Amazing mac and cheese topped with bacon bits. Super friendly stuff
D. M.
Excellent choice of burgers and reasonably priced. Staff friendly and attentive
I. L.
Own of the best burgers I ever had. The blue moon beer as amazing. Defenitely a must try!
S. S.
One of the best place to have fun and eat tummy full . The starters are Great , Burgers were tasty , Overall a great experience , Heavy and Tummy Filling food , Special mention to the Paneer stater and Oreo Milkshake , Would definitely visit again . Had the best end to 2021 having a dinner at this place
C. E.
Best burgers I’ve had so far in Cork! Delicious, good value for money.
E. P.
Great food for a reasonable price. Loved the ambiance inside too. Didn't have to wait too long to get a table during rush hour. Good staff but service could have been a little faster.
C. L.
Food is nice, atmosphere wasn't great but not bad. Expensive but worth going once in a while. Ran out of water and the waiter didn't bring any more or notice
A. R.
Really good food, nice selection of drinks, enjoyed their Christmas burger a lot! Only issue is as its so popular it feels a touch rushed to fully enjoy your meal, can slighty feel the pressure to turn the tables around for the next group to come in
I. B.
Love it! Their burgers are just amazing, the staff is incredible polite and the overall experience is as good as it gets every single time.
R. M.
By far the best compromise between quantity and quality, today I had the best burger I ever had in Ireland!
D. Z.
Absolutely the best burger I have ever had! This is The One! So good that I did not want to brush my teeth.
L. B.
Enjoyed the vibe in the place and the staff were on point and friendly. Really good food, would definitely go there again. A small niggle for me would be the unisex bathrooms - not the cleanest on that occasion.
K. W.
Fabulous burger and service. Highly recommend especially the Aussie burger...yum!!
K. R.
Helpful staff when ordering.
This place is all about the burger's. Loads of options and a decent number of sides which you will probably want to share. Very tasty, a burger is more than enough food for one person.
Definitely worth a visit
t. c.
Best burger restaurant in Cork. Excellent starters, mains, sides, desserts. All over great. Loved it, as did the kids
M. P.
The beef is delicious. Delightful and stunning. A must visit if you enjoy burgers. Our server was kind and courteous and despite it being busy, we got our food in a reasonable amount of time.
D. C.
The best burger in cork according to my 12 year old. We went there during the week , still really busy , nice bar to have a drink in before your meal if you have to wait. Food is really nice and staff are really really on the ball. One of the staff was so kind to came down the street after us to remind us we had left our movie phone behind
J. G.
If you like to have very tasty burger go to Son of a bun. You wouldn't be disappointed. It's one of the best burger place in Cork. Prices are also very reasonable and stuff is very nice too.
K. L.
Beautiful, delicious, tasty and oh so filling! Everything we ordered was cooked perfectly, can see why they've won awards for their burgers. We even went back the following day to get their banoffee pie dessert because we missed out on it the night before! And it was so worth it. Also very friendly staff who had the place running very smoothly for a Saturday night!
O. S. U.
The atmosphere here was great. The staff are professional and the food was great. Its an open kitchen which I loved and everything that came out of that kitchen was legit. They mostly have burger and such but the side menu was large enough to fill me so I was satisfied. Go here.
B. G.
They clame to have the best burger in Ireland, and boy are they right! The burger was excellently cooked, little pink. The chilli burger was very tasty and had a little spice to it as well. Fries were an excellent accompaniment as well. Our server was very friendly and nice. Couldn't be happier with our visit and would go back again.
J. S. C.
Like what that has been said earlier about this restaurant, they did serve burgers with abundant quality and portion, which makes perfect sense to see a whole lot of patrons even before dinner hours. The decoration is contemporary with a bar section available as well. The coleslaw salad I got was equally amazing as well, crunchy vegetables paired with mild dressing that goes so well together. The mac and cheese was slightly bland for my personal liking, nonetheless it's definitely worth more than what you spent
G. M.
Not many options for veggies but you probably won't want anything other than The Veggie Portobello burger after you taste it. Unbelievably tasty! Pretty busy spot which is a good sign but be there early as no bookings taken.
L. G.
Fast friendly service! Place looked packed when we got there but only had to wait 3 mins to get a table! Amazing burgers!
P. O. T.
Absolutely amazing. Probably the best burger I've eaten. Couldn't recommend enough. Staff were excellent also.
S. T. E.
One of the best burgers I've had in a very long time. Friendly Staff too
K. V.
Great burgers, incredibly attentive and friendly staff, good atmosphere, and massive portions of fries. All around great place!
S. F.
I can't not stop here anytime I'm in cork it's unreal food. Outdoor dining bit of a pain at the moment but some covered seating definitely looking forward to returning indoors here
B. S.
Best burger joint in Cork by a mile. Lovely,clean,bright well managed business. Terrific staff serving fabulous food. Put this on your must visit list
H.
Stayed in a hostel down the road and was advised to eat here. We weren't going to but luckily for us our original choice of restaurant was shut.. we ordered a chicken burger and the special "chipper" burger and both agreed that they were the best burgers we had ever eaten.
Would 100% recommend eating here. The atmosphere was fantastic, great staff. A busy place but so worth the wait.
M. H.
Must be the best burgers in cork! Service was very quick, even it was completely full. Definitely try the fried pickles! I would say it is just very loud when it is so busy there. So you can not talk in a normal speech.
N. K.
Great food, great service, and great prices. What else do you need?
E. C.
I really love Son of a Bun. If there’s one thing you have to try here, it’s their cheesy fries. They’re divine. They do phenomenal burgers too and their burger of the month is a great. My favourite burger place in Cork, well worth checking out.
D. B.
Burgers are very good, but the sides are awsome!
A. S.
The space is pleasant and staff was friendly. The beef burguer itself was tasty enough and well cooked, good overall. There are other options such as chicken burger with blue cheese sauce, something different for a try. This one is interesting if you like blue cheese. The chips were free of charge due to time we went in, lunch time.
J. F.
These content faces say it all as much as the delicious specialties of meals on the menu! Myself and my pals, one pouring wet January night (of all times of the year!) decided to have a reunion dinner, and we were not disappointed. Beautiful burgers, big varieties of chips, refreshing minerals and beer, delicious desserts and cool, funky retro art work with hugely helpful staff ensured that the reunion dinner went down a dream! It is a place I will certainly have to return to again sometime in the very near future after I finish this post! And at good prices too: highly recommended for anyone who plans an adventure in the Southern Capital!!
B. C.
Burger was nice, just beat the crowd 5 mins we would have been queuing huddled just inside the door
T. A.
nice place, great burgers

Dirty Chicken Burger 😋🍔 is the best. Found a good place for chicken burger.
L. C.
My family group (5 adults and 4 children) went to Son of a bun on a busy Friday evening, we were seated immediately and served a short while later. The staff and service were fantastic as was the food, I would highly recommend this restaurant 👍
M. B.
We stopped here for lunch on our first day in Cork and were honestly blown away. We arrived just after 12 on a Friday so it had just opened and we were shown to a table right away. Within 15 minutes or so there were only a couple of tables left so you can see how popular this place is, and for good reason. I've never had a burger as good as the one I had here and the cheesy fries aren't your usual ones where there is only cheese on top, the cheese on these is right down to the bottom as well.
I had the burger with crispy peppers on and I'm still thinking about it now. The Cobb salad was also really good and all the components were of great quality. We had two mains and two sides between the two of us and it was plenty.
The staff were really friendly and we had a great time. If we come back to Cork, we will be coming back here!
D. W.
Great service, interesting choice of burgers and all food was delicious. I would highly recommend.
m. b. b.
Very good burgers. I was in cork for luch, because the tour i went with (paddywagon) stopped there. The restaurant was near the main bridge, like a 3 minutes walk. There was a really nice vive in there and it wasn't very crowded. I asked for a burger ( i don't remember the name ) and some cheese fries and they were fantastic. Also the staff was really nice and kind. I would go there again.
D. W.
Really nice place. We got seated almost straight away without a reservation at 5 on a Saturday which was fantastic. The dirty chicken burger was amazing.
H. G.
It's good food... But definitely overpriced
k. w.
Really tasty and big hamburgers. The place is located in the north of the city (McCurtain street).
I was impressed about how fast the staff was to get us a table, take our order and serve us, really efficient and friendly.
The price of the hamburgers may vary but they go from 8 to 11€ (really worthy), and there's also different dessert options available.
The beer selection is no so big, but overall is fine.
Totally recommended.
M. P.
Best place for burgers in my opinion my favorite "The One". So happy to see them open back again, we went out for lunch, they have a nice seating area outside.
The food will keep you going till late hours.
Highly recommended 👌
N. B.
Delightful experience here this evening with the finest burgers around. Drove down from Kilkenny for this with the family. Excellent service, lively ambience and the churros are to die for!
M. S.
Fantastic burger and I loved the fries loaded with mayo. Nice place close to my office with good food and very quick and courteous service.
G. D.
The Soul Burger was the best burger that I ever had. Soooooooo goood!
A. C.
Web site doesn't work so you can't oder ahead. Food was good but expect to be waiting 20 to 30 mins for your take away. Sit down available for those with proof of vaccination.
S.
Great tasting burgers, the burger of the month is usually quite unique and worth trying, the staff are very friendly and the price is reasonable.
G. S.
I always look for an excuse to visit Son of a Bun when I'm in Cork City.
This is a food joint which specialises in burgers and shakes. They also have a full alcohol bar which means you can get a great range of draught beers and also cocktails made for you.
Any time I've ever been here it's been very very busy so I would recommend to make a booking in advance if possible to secure a table.
The food itself is extremely nice and very well cooked with nice options but also niche to that burger style of food.
I would highly recommend this to anyone who is in Cork and really in the mood for some good burgers and has a modern bar like feel.
This would also be a great venue for any companies looking to have a fun work dinner and get some great food with some drinks.
W. F. M.
Great adorable burgers with efficient and friendly staff. Had some amazing Chickenwings as at well! A must go if you're tight on budget and you love good burgers
D. M.
Amazing food, great service! Was very busy and could have done with the air con on as was really want inside
N. C.
Gluten free burgers and beer.
If you are celiac or in gluten free diet this is a good choice with various types of burgers available.
Recommended!
J. A. A. R.
Best burgers in the city. No question about it.
Recommend the soul burger and district 3!!
T. B.
Nice and authentic place in Cork to have a burger 🍔
Staff is kind and welcoming.
J. N.
Great Food, Burgers are insane, Wonderful vibes & atmosphere
S. N.
The best burger i've ever eat.
Their churros is also superb!
C. C.
My favourite burgers in Cork. Never had a bad experience here.
The vibe is great as people have said but I think what's really important is what you're buying, and let me tell you, if you're looking for a hearty meal with great flavours, this is the spot. I'm here several timea a month, it's unreal. You won't leave hungry.
Pictures is the burger of the month for July with cheese chips (highly recommended).
P.S. keep an eye out for the burger of the month, they are always different and often mind-bogglingly good.
D. M.
Fantastic resturant. Every selection of burger you could think of they have. Reasonably priced. Staff were fantastic. Would definitely recommend a visit but you would be better booking a table as we has a 45min wait. Just goes to show that it's a popular resturant. Looking forward to our next visit to Cork will be definitely visiting S.O.B.
N. N.
Excellent burgers and fries! Lovely atmosphere and great service! Will be going back.
f.
Lots of different burgers, also a lot of vegetarian/vegan options. The side dishes themselves can be an entire dinner.
C. S.
My favourite pub in Cork and the best bun that I have never tasted. I like the local, the staff is very friendly and funny. While you are enjoying your bun and talking with friends, you can see the kitchen and chefs working.
S.
Great vibe, friendly staff, large variety of burgers and sides with vegan & vegetarian options too
M. A.
Best place in Cork City for the ultimate delish burger!! Go try it!
A. J.
Great burgers and great cider options. Not too loud and it had a fun atmosphere. One of our favorites, we've gone back twice now :)
D. N.
The SOB burger is legit the best burger in the town but maybe on the island! 100% recommended.
P. P.
The burgers are fantastic and quite filling. Good variety in the menu.
J. C.
Son of a bun is a huge hit on the Victorian side of the city on Mc Curtain st. Wide selection of burgers on the menu with a special burger every month. Monday to Friday there's a meal deal from 12 until 4 with free fries with any burger purchased. Smashing burgers, scrumptious sides, damn good milk shakes and of coarse there is a main bar within the restaurant. Craft beer and cider on flow. For such a busy establishment there a great atmosphere with quick service. Great team within sun of a bun and service has always been a pleasure with a smile. Normally a 15 minute wait, giving you time to enjoy your surroundings. Not the cheapest when it come to getting your burgers and sides but it's more than enough when it all comes down to it. The chicken wings are the bomb aswell. Crispy goodness, fully packed with a slightly spicy kick sauce. Toilets are down stairs so it's not wheelchair friendly.
J. L. B. L.
Son of a bun have won Cork's Best Burger for two years in a row, I wanted to know if they deserved... And dude... The Chipper is simply one of the best Burger I have fever try. 10/10. A MUST GO
P. O.
Best buns for your bucks! A wide selection of burger styles and toppings. Really had a brilliant meal there. Went in a group of four and four of us were happy at the end. They offer special salt for your chips... GET IT! Unreal! We also loved the "bun puns" lol. I found the staff really nice and service was fast. Had to take a pic of the decor because I thought it was really cool!
S. G.
Trendy burger restaurant, bustling with good music.
Service was friendly.
There was something I didn't enjoy about my beef burger (seemed a bit 'mince meaty') but I think it's just my preferences.
J. C.
Amazing burgers and brilliant origanal mac & cheese. Child friendly and brilliant place or tourists to merge with the locals. In my words a must go!!!
C. T.
OMG this place was just amazing the food was beautiful, the staff where amazing, and the pricing was very good. Becky our waitress was an absolute credit to the place. I'm a clare woman and will be travelling back to cork just for this burger!!!!
n. z.
One of the best burgers in cork! I always go to this place when i visit cork and in general the food is great. However this time i was a little bit disappointed while i was seated next to a public bin and it was a bit anoying when i was trying to eat and having people throwing rubish right next to me. It would be nice to put some kind of divider there ,or at least remove that table. Still a great place tho! :-)
G. S. N.
I’m sooooo happy after visiting this place ! Found out that they have paneer cheese fry with sauce.... omg !!! The best I’ve ever had. Must try !!! And the burger is amazing with free fries!! One of the best burgers in cork !!! Will definitely be back for more ! The ambience is perfect for a nice evening out with your friends!!!!
R. G. L.
One of the best hamburgers I may have eaten. Búfalo wings are also a great starter.
N. R.
Great burgers, for those who wonder you can vegetarianize all those on the menu. Nice waiters. Good place to eat
J. C.
Best burger gaff in Cork or anywhere perhaps! Super staff
N. S. (. N.
Really really delicious burgers! Have been to a few places in the city and left disappointed. Not so here. The beef is superb and very tasty. Best burger I've had in the city. Staff are very friendly and attentive. Highly recommend, nice menu and good atmosphere. You won't leave hungry. Shakes are good and fries come in thick cut or skinny. Will be back.
l. b.
Burgers was so delicious 😋 we will be back again soon
K. W.
Always enjoy these burgers! The standard menu is full of great options and then add in the burger of the month and we have many reasons to keep returning.
D. H.
Best chicken waffle burger ever!!! Absolutely delicious with the truffle fries! Drooling just writing about it!!
J. B.
Always tasty. Fast service, with friendly staff. Theres a good reason that it's crowded regularly.

Great place to eat a good burger in cork. I tried “The One” burger and it was delicious. If you want to try something new I would defiantly recommend.
O. N.
Son of a Bun is a great burger shop. The burgers are big. You get good value. The staff are friendly and helpful.
The service is quick and efficient. When it is busy things slow down a bit; however, that is to be expected.
There is plenty of seating. There is wheelchair accessible and group seating. Of course there are some restrictions in place due to C19.

D. M.
The best burger I have had in a long time!!
S. W. (.
Incredible food and brilliant staff who delivered exemplary service. My only issue is that you cannot tip the staff on your card. Doesn't make sense in this day and age, particularly with less cash going around now. Management need to change this because it's unfair on the staff who really are excellent and deliver a great experience every time.
R. C.
Best burger I’ve ever had in Ireland. Very reasonable. And when I made a mistake at ordering and didn’t see the burger of the monthly our excellent server Evelyn who couldn’t have been more helpful swooped in and got it changed it time . Craft beer on menu was gorgeous. Can’t remember the name but I got the pale wheat one with the slice of orange in it . Kids loved the burgers as well but Churros and Nutella stole the show . We will be back
L. O.
Super food and top class service as always! Thank you!
N. G.
Tried the waffle burger-delicious. Fair prices and friendly staff, will come back! :)

Best burger I've ever had A++
G. G.
Fantastic food, menu is mainly burgers of course but they do them well. The burger of the month is well worth a try, it's a unique burger that changes every month. The staff are nice and the atmosphere is relaxed. The music is good and the food is reasonably priced with big portion sizes. The only downside is the very small bar that only has 4 beers on tap and a few bottled craft beers and cocktails.
M. O. C.
Best Burger I ever had!
S. G.
Really good, a bit of a wait sometimes as they do not take reservations, however if you are willing to put your name down and go for a drink somewhere else for 20 ish minutes then it is very suitable. If you're a burger person then this is the place for you, they also have a bar while you wait and the food is very reasonably priced. Staff were very friendly and the table has a nice little review card where you can write down any feedback, which I thought was a nice touch. All in all, of you're looking for a fancy place with amazing burgers then this is the place
o. s.
Fantastic place for a burger, I made it my business to try it out when down in Cork for the weekend. Definitely one of the best burgers I’ve had in Ireland. Up there with the very best.
I ordered the S.O.B burger and it was delicious. The quality and flavor of the beef complemented the crispy fried onions and the unique S.O.B sauce perfectly. The cheese fries were a little heavy but I could see why others would enjoy it.
The staff are very friendly and accommodating.
Overall fantastic experience and would love to go again if ever visiting.
O. M.
Always a great experience. Friendly staff, great atmosphere & the food is delicious. Great place to bring the kids too, kids meals a good size & even have sliced carrot & cucumber which I appreciate. Fantastic value also, I cannot wait to go back 🙂
k. i.
Great food, friendly efficient staff

5/5 Best burgers in Ireland. The menu is reasonably priced and the portions are generous. A range of local beers are available on tap and the staff are lively and friendly. Music and atmosphere are great.
My recommendation is the S.O.B burger alongside one of their loaded fries!
P. b. L. A.
So many times I've gone there and been amazed at the speed, the atmosphere here. They tell You right away how long you can expect to wait for a seat if it's busy.
The burgers are just awesome! Burger of the month changes every month of course. The nachos are big. Also Monday to Friday 12 to 4 it's free fries with your burger.
Just go. Get the burger. It's what they're known for. Best burger spot in cork I believe.
M. C.
Smile on my face when my burger came in, smile on my face when leaving the place, really recommend :D
C. S.
Great service, nice/friendly staff, and quick delivery. Burgers were absolutely amazing, and they came within 2 or 3 minutes of sitting down. Great milkshakes. I'd give it 6/5 if I could. Would definitely recommend.
k. k.
Definitely would recommend this place. Really nice food and atmosphere.

Best burger place in Cork! Great energy at the restaurant with great background music and very friendly as well as attentive staff. They have amazing burgers as well as milkshakes and every month there’s a special burger of the house. Gets really busy on the weekends due to their popularity but doesn’t take too long for a table to clear. Very cozy on the inside with the dimmed lighting and the nice view of the kitchen.

Very nice place for some delicious burgers and fancy chips. Prices are more than fair. Staff is very nice and professional. Beer on tap is tasty. Recommend to book table in advance but you could get lucky. Would definitely come again.
K. S.
Great service, even better food. Reasonably priced as well, 100% recommend it anyone

Son of a Bun has the best burger in Cork! I came here for the first time this week and arrived around 6pm with my wife and son. There was about a 10 minute wait but it was worth it.
The food was all fresh and very flavorful. The staff was friendly and everything we ate was great.
C. F.
We just had takeaway burgers.,wings,nachos and poppers. Very impressed and will definitely be going back Looking forward to being able to eat in the restaurant when things open up.

Good burgers.Vibrant, casual atmosphere. Very busy, but in a good way. As walk ins we had to wait 15 mins which wasn't bad for peak time.
My only criticism is that there didn't appear to be an alternative to brioche burger buns. Brioche burger buns are an already played out fad. I'd prefer a trad sesame bun any day.
d. v.
Lovely food! I will came back !
e. l.
Amazing service. Went on Valentine's day and hot there at the perfect time. We were seated almost straight away, their table turnover was very efficient and people who did have to wait weren't waiting long. The food is amazing. I had the veggie burger and it was so good. The sweet potato fried are amazing too as everything I've tried on the menu. Highly recommend.

There is usually a bit of a wait even on weekdays and that is testament to how good this place is. Excellent burgers and hot wings to die for. I've been to Cork twice and both times went there and the food has not disappointed. If you find yourself in Cork, do yourself a favour and go here!
C. M.
Absolutely delicious food, lovely service and nice area, very happy customer
C. M.
Very good vibe and tasty food!
T. F.
Burgers are the best in Ireland! The sauce on the chips was good but the actual chips were overcooked. Overall a good meal. My kids loved the sweet potato fries and their burgers
P. S.
Amazing food, great buzz and brilliant staff.
Ten out of ten.
A. M.
The hot sauce they used for chicken wings, angry fries and the dirty chicken burger was way too sour for me and this is my personal opinion. I was looking for some hot chicken wings but was disappointed. The chilli burger was good.
M. B.
One of the best burger I have ever had and friendly staff
K. M.
Really lovely experience here over the weekend. We were a group of 7 and were seated straight away which was great. The waitress who brought us to the table ran through the menu explaining anything and also gave some reccomendations which we listened to. I cannot fault the front of house staff they were all just so lovely and accommodating despite the business of the place. Anything we asked for we had at our table in tip top speed. The burgers were fantastic and there were so many to choose from. Fries also excellent as were array of dips one of the girls brought down to our table. 7 people all getting burgers multiple sides with pints minerals and coffees came to about 130 which we thought was fantastic. Highly recommend.
A. K.
Lovely restaurant at a very central location in Cork. Very friendly staff, nice decoration, good food and beers. The service is fast. I would recommend one of the burgers as the place has been awarded in the past for the specific plate. Having said that, I didn't find something extraordinary in their recipe. Nonetheless it was good.
T. S. G.
Nice place. Had their Dirty Chicken Burger. Cool
D. D.
Fantastic..... The nachos and buffalo wings for starter, and "the chipper" burger for mains. Truly one the tastiest burgers I've ever experienced. Great spot, with a great atmosphere. Staff are top notch. Will be a returning customer.
C. Y.
Some AMAZING burgers! Highly recommend visiting.
Even if it is busy staff are very accommodating and very well at keeping under pressure with the large amounts of customers that come through the door and also the Deliveroo orders!
Burgers were well cooked, easy to handle, not too greasy, perfection!
Atmosphere of the place is very thought out and they have lots of offer on the table.
P. F. (.
Great food, atmosphere & service. Recommended. Try the One burger with
Angry fries 💥. Very reasonable.
t. F.
4 of us had dinner here last night my husband, 2 teenage sons and myself all I can say is we were all 100% in agreement that the food was absolutely delicious, service fantastic and atmosphere great will definitely be back on our next visit to Cork.If your in make sure you try the Nachos 👌
C. C.
I really like visiting with friends as they have friendly staff and a nice atmosphere.
Be ready to wait for a seat around dinner time.
They have really different burgers to the norm, with monthly themed specials and a good static menu too (prepare to get messy as they usually juicy.)
Also their chicken wings are good too, I think they use Frank's hot sauce.
C. o. c.
Have eaten here several times and never fails to impress. Great burgers and the cheesy fries are to die for. Friendly staff and it's reasonably priced too. They also have a good selection of beers and wines. Usually quote busy but with a good atmosphere. Easily my favourite place to eat in Cork.
C. C.
Loved the food and drink here and the outside dining table was spacious enough for our family off 5
J. V.
Very good experience, good price, place and burgers.
V. N.
Burger. If you are about to have this for lunch or dinner in Cork, then come here without a blink. Your tongue and taste buds would be thanking you for choosing this restaurant. Cheese and other curry sauce taste will make your eyes close to feel the taste. Thanks a lot SOB for the delicious burger.
K. M.
Came in during lunch time waiting for our bus. We loved the environment with the cross between modern and rustic. The music was at a perfect volume. The best part was the burger!!! We got the S.O.B Burger and it was SO GOOD!! Honestly probably the best burger I have ever had!! I highly recommend. Such great service as well.
M. B.
This is certainly the best place where to eat a testy and juicy burger. The ambiance is lively and the music is upbeat. The burger stays fresh longer so you can eat it more slowly than in other burger restaurants. A special praise for the home-cut chips and the rosemary seasoning: they are just delicious! And remember, you can have a chilled pint of Red Rebel, the Franciscan Well beer. I was there yesterday evening and I got everything: the great Son of a Bun burger, the home-cut chips, the beer and the ambiance: a great package, if you add that I was with my family... Definitely a place to go to eat if you come to Cork.
J. G.
Always delicious food and friendly service
J.
Delish burgers, chips very salty but would just ask for no salt next time. Will definitely be back.
H. S. B.
Delicious burguer, great atmosphere with cool songs and the nicest staff
C. S.
Had such a lovely meal here last night with my family. The food was gorgeous and the service was top notch. The tables were well spread out and we felt very safe with all staff in ppe and sanitisation station upon arrival and I even saw staff ask people to use it if they didn’t spot it. Thank you for a great experience I wish ye continued success.
A. B.
The prices are a bit extreme for burgers and fries, but everything is top quality and the food that comes out of the kitchen is consistently excellent. I recommend always getting the Burger of the the month. They are always creative and of the wall sounding but have incredibly balanced flavor and texture. The the most deserving of the name out of the gourmet Burger places in Cork
J. D.
Great tasting food, generous portions, and friendly staff!
R. S.
NAILED IT! Amazing atmosphere, food and staff! This is the quintessential American burger joint, but with absolute LOCAL flavor. The beef was super flavorful and the mac and cheese was divine! The staff were attentive and responsive to our requests.
L. C.
Best burgers in Ireland! Lovely staff and atmosphere. Burger of the month never dissapoints. Can be busy in the evening but it's usually only a 10 minute wait and you can order drinks at the bar. Well worth the wait!! 11/10 would go again.
J. C.
Food was amazing. Got dirty chicken burger, would highly recommend. Staff were friendly and quick.
p. c.
The burger was fantastic, it comes with chips. I ordered the son of a bun burger. The chicken on the kids menu was really good too. Only slight gripe was they put too much salt on my chips but the burger more than made up
T. S.
This burger restaurant is actually in a former music shop, Crowley's. Rock musician Rory Gallagher bought his first guitar🎸 here. The burgers🍔 are quite fresh and innovative. There is always a good crowd, especially in the evenings. Once some other lady guests tried to flirt with me. They were probably from somewhere else, because Cork girls are due to their convent school upbringing true lilies of chastity. Well, almost. 😀😀😀
D. G.
Have been to many burger places and this is one of the highest quality places around and especially in Cork. The burgers there were spectacular and fries of equal achievements.
Atmosphere is relaxing yet modern and staff were lovely, only complaint is that there wasnt any vegan options.
B. P.
Great burger! Fresh meat! Good service!
S. K.
Best burger I've ever eaten 🔥
J. '. B.
If you come here you'll understand why they were crowned Ireland's Best Burger 2018. Absolute divine.
Have to buy fries (etc) separate. Price is definitely worth the taste however.
10/10 would go again.
S. M.
Lovely food and restaurant. Staff are very friendly.
R. N.
I really wanted to like this place, so I kept coming back hoping for a better experience. Don't get me wrong, the burger is grand. It isn't the best burger in the city, but it's grand. The mac and cheese is delicious, basically, the food is great!
It's just that the restaurant is so noisy. Now obviously, it's busy all the time, so of course noise is to be expected. However, when the restaurant is packed full of people, why on earth would the music be played at full blast?!
I have eaten here on four or five different occasions at different times of day/evening and haven't been able to hear the waiters or the person I'm eating with.
It's a shame, because it really does take away from the yummy food...
P. S.
Lovely food, friendly staff and quick service.
Highly recommended.
I.
Juicy burgers . Nice interior. Nice staff.
S. B.
Taste buds explode!! Stopped here while on the way to a tour to eat lunch and so glad we went in. Very cool decor, but the best was the food!! Never had a better tasting burger with so much flavor!! Great service, a must try!!!

Best Burger in Cork!
It had been quite a while since we'd eaten here, and it didn't disappoint.
I had the S.O.B. burger, which was impressive and the angry fries, were nice, but not too angry.
My OH is vegetarian and was delighted to see that they had expanded their veggie options since our last visit. The falafel was devoured with gusto and also got a rave review.
My 18 month old devoured his Mac & Cheese.
We will definitely be back.
S. T.
We visited this restaurant on our stop through Cork. Very good burgers and friendly service. We got a happy hour deal that included free fries with our burgers. Prices weren't bad and food was decent. I would recommend eating here if you are in the area
C. A.
Absolutely amazing burgers and fries. Staffing were very friendly
B. D.
There's not much more praise I could heap on this place that hasn't already been done. The food is fantastic. The low lighting sets up a chilled yet vibrant atmosphere. The place is always busy which I see as a good sign. We usually have a beer while we wait for a seat and the wait is rarely more than 15 minutes which you honestly dont see going by. The food is top notch and portion sizes are generous too. Fair play if you have room for desert.
d. d.
Great food, brilliant staff
M. C.
I visited this restaurant with my family last week. The burger was the best tasting I have had in a restaurant. The staff were good , the food arrived quickly so what more can I say ... .other than it is not cheap but you get what you pay for in life....BTW the kids menu is good value which includes a desert.
N. S.
Excellent service, tasty food!
S. H.
The food is good - some of the the best burgers in all of cork- yet the service is lackluster. The restaurant is infamous for rushing the customer, and the servers themselves can be unfriendly.
A. D.
Best burgers in Cork! Awesome sweet potato fries or dirty fries. Fantastic chicken wings. Worst part about going here is trying to decide what you don't get to order. And the service has always been great!
Just fantastic!
T. F.
Good burgers but I'd like if there was more than one type of chicken burger on the menu. The homemade chips are also very good. The waiters are helpful and you don't have to wait long to be served. There's also a vegetarian option where you can replace the burger meat with a falafel instead. The falafel is quite tasty and filling.
L. R.
Sides were amazing. The burgers are a bit too tall to eat comfortably. If you were on a date you'd need to know they already liked you enough to put up with a messy eater. Good for casual bite with friends.
D. O. C.
Most reliable place In cork city for food. Huge portion size so would get 1 chips between 2 to start. Would advice calling for booking as can be long wait for walk ins! Host/greeter could be a lot nicer as I go very often and he! Is always grumpy/non welcoming. Couldn’t fault the food always 10/10 would highly recommend dirty chicken burger with crispy fried onions and angry fries 🔥
M. S.
I typically don't like burgers that much. This one, however, I really enjoyed! I took a bite and immediately decided that this was the best burger I've ever had (sorry, New York). My boyfriend and I also quite enjoyed the bun puns. Nice place, maybe a little noisier than I would prefer, but no big deal!
m. S.
Savage burgers , great place to treat yourself.
R. P.
Cool spot, great burgers. Ya have to double up and make it a huge stack. Simple menu that tastes great. Staff are v friendly and helpful.
I've been back a couple of times. I've never been let down!!
D. T.
Great place. Can get a truly high quality burger and chips for a tenner if you don't mind drinking tap water. €15 if you want a beer snd they have Franciscan Well which is a personal favourite and tough to come by. Come here with my friends all the time.
J. W.
Fantastic burgers. They have plenty of choices to choose from. In close walking distance to hostels and hotels. Good music. They don't have much on tap. Only a very limited selection. The best option I saw was blue moon. I would say the limited beer selection and the price was the only downside. It's a craft burger place so the average burger price was around 12€. Sides are extra.
E. J.
Great burgers, good selection of beers. Really cool atmosphere. Good value as well. Definitely the place to go for a casual bite to eat in Cork, but probably not the spot for you if you’re vegetarian.
N. O. S.
Great food. Simple menu with choice of starters and choice of burgers for mains (the clue is in the name). While simple the variations of flavours offer enough to keep most satisfied.
Speaking of satisfied, wings and a burger & chips and you'll nearly have to be rolled out the door. Portions are decent sized and the burgers are stacked. Brioche buns are delicious. Decent drink range including some local micro brewery offerings, Franciscan Well ales are perfect with a burger, but it's not a bar so don't expect 20 different whiskeys and 20 different gins etc.
Casual and noisy and great atmosphere and the staff always seem eager to help without ever over doing it and asking how you are every 5 minutes.
It may not be to everybodys taste but if you are looking for a quick tasty bite after work or before a night out /show you can't go wrong. On busier Friday and Saturday evenings be prepared to wait 5 to 10 minutes for a table as there are no reservations.
G. K.
One of the best burger joints. I would never miss if I pass through Cork city center.
P. M. (.
Quite possibly the best burger you'll ever have. I'm a big fan of the one. The atmosphere and staff are amazing here. Chicken wings are sub par but it's a burger joint so order a burger and you can't go wrong.
M. N.
Pretty decent burger, felt the patty fell apart too easily needs more bite. Also the brioche bun could have been toasted more to give it more rigidity;felt like my fingers were going right through the top of the bun
D. O. B.
The best place for a burger, I would have to say yes.
After trying many burgers in different parts of the city, Son of a Bun without a doubt deserves the most praise. Usually busy and understandably so. A fantastic set of workers present and really make ordering nice and simple. They have a huge range of burgers (which can be customised at a small price too!).
A. K.
Son of a Bun was recommended by some local bartenders and it did not disappoint! Interior is very trendy and seating is comfortable. The burgers were the best we had in Ireland.
P. G.
Great food, good value
V. L. M.
Nothing special. Burgers come without sides. The burger was good but small, I asked for home cut chips but they looked like French fries, also they looked like they had been in the frier too long or fried twice. The coleslaw was a bit dry and bland with no dressing. I wouldn't go back.
A. B.
Amazing burgers! We ordered the cheese fries as well, and they did not disappoint. Lovely dinner in Cork
H. H.
Best burgers in Cork. Maybe even in Ireland. Their monthly specials are always unique and fun. Staff is nice and friendly.

Great burgers great fries and loads more worth a visit.. Very friendly staff
J. K.
The menu is easy to tweak to accommodate vegans and the food is seriously good. Puy lentil salad was legendary. Really good value for money too. Great staff!
V. O.
The special burger was fantastic. Free chips between 12 and 16:00. Great staff. A lovely pint of Blue Moon.
S. S.
Always a great experience dining at Son of a Bun!
m. l.
The best burger in town. Unreal milk shake too. Lovely young energetic staff. The place is buzzing with people. I understand why they don't take bookings.
D. R.
Lovely venue and atmosphere with great food. The patty itself was excellent quality meat but was a bit overcooked and therefore lacked juices. Overall the place is very good and well worth a visit. There is a walk-in policy (bookings not taken) therefore be prepared to wait at busy times.
T. t.
Nice food.. simple menu but you know what you are getting. Great value. A long wait for a table maybe cos of the time of the year. Very busy and a little noisy. Friendly staff. Recommend it but not if you want a relaxed quiet meal. Would return.
J. K.
Beautiful food and great customer service
M. F.
Had the chilli burger and it was gorgeous. Would have liked to see chips on the side rather than ordering them separately but all in all it hit the spot and was just the right size😋
S. G.
You like burgers? You'll like this place.

Not only the best burgers in town, one the TOP in the all Europe!!!
Nice music, Friendly Staff, Good beer.
What more could you want.
Take a friend and enjoy!
D. V.
Decent burgers. Always coming up with good ideas for ingredients. Lots of focus on what's going on outside the meat. The meat gets neglected though. I prefer big soft medium rare burgers where the beef is the focus. Here the beef is just the vehicle.
E. D.
Nice staff food ok . Nothing much stand out about it do. May need to rethink desserts . skinny chip over done and not skinny chip . But if it's a chicken burger you want it up there with hillbilly for taste and the beef burger are about a four star maybe add the extra parts Pate
S. M.
They've won best burger in Cork, and then Ireland. Their latest burger special comes with a shot glass of beer. Honestly, If you're looking for a great burger with fantastic staff, go here!
S. T.
One of the best burger in Cork.

I’ve been coming here since they have opened and I am a big fan. Great burgers and really friendly staff! Would highly recommend
D. L.
The burgers here are top notch. The place was quite busy when we got it, but they took our names and we had drinks at the bar. We really liked the atmosphere and both said that we would return.
S. Z.
Delicious imaginative burgers and great sides served in an industrial style diner, by super happy staff. Free chips with any burger ordered Monday to Friday (12-4) for a tenner makes for a filling lunch too. The Dirty Chicken with hot sauce and blue cheese is amazing.
Plenty of hot sauce and chilli for the spicy food lovers, but most are available stripped back and plain for those with sensitive taste buds. They also do salads if you can make it past the burgers on the menu.
D. S.
Best burgers in town. Friendly service and consistently good food. Even when super busy their dishes are excellent. They always have a specialty burger per month.
S. L.
Got the burger of the month which was The Whiskey Burger and it absolutely blew me away it was so delicious. Really would have loved a desert but the burger and fries are quite filling so I'll have to share next time. 🙄
M. W.
Love this burger joint! Tasty burgers, great fries an friendly service good value for money. Love the atmosphere in here too. Highly recommended

Really tasty burgers. Served slightly pink which makes them all the better. Nice sweet potato fries and good friendly service. The stairs down to the basement shows many layers of Cork history.

Probably the best burger in Cork at the moment !!
Nice to see the open kitchen. Few beer but very good ones. Service was quick and prices right on average.

Incredible customer service! Takeaway options. Loved it here.
D. Q.
Very good food. Good to hear they're doing takeaway. Only complaint would be pre covid it could get a bit packed
S. W.
Love the burgers here, The One is something else and the cheese fries are something else entirely!
Only thing is they don’t really sell the cheese fries which come with 4 types of cheeses, I only learned of them watching them pass on the way to someone else!
C. L.
Good menu choice. Worth a visit if you like burgers.

Good burger options, the staff shirts are quite funny. Toilets are downstairs which can be a pain. But I do recommend the mac and cheese, if you ask for bacon though, be prepared to dig around for it.

Great house made burgers and fries. Beer on tap. The milkshakes are made fresh to order. Easily one of the best burgers I've had.

Excellent selection of food and excellent service

Vibrant Cork city centre burger joint, good on the skinny burgers (leave out the buns). Not much change from €100 for 4 persons, only two and half drinks ordered ... good service which merited a 10% tip, well worth a visit

Smashing burgers and great service. Highly recommended.

Best burgers in Cork. The seating is not amazibg if its just two people - its clear the motto is to get people in and out fast. The food is great tho.

Quality time with my eldest and to celebrate my new job. Had a wait for the table as it is always busy (popular restaurant), but worth the wait. Food was fab and the service was great.
B. K.
Arrived here at 12.15 with family of 5 (3 young children)...told waitress we hoped to be in Opera house to see panto at 1. Waitress made it her business to get our food out to us quickly.. great service and nice burgers and fries.

Best hamburger in Ireland. Tasty and fabulous.

Definitely best burger joint in town.

The place good, the food that are made to perfection and the way customer wants it, but one draw back is you have book only via online and they pick their phone rarely

Best spot in Cork City for a burger

Great food, quick and decently priced, recommend!

Had "The one" and the "S.O.B." burgers on 2 different occasions with the "angry fries" and sweet potato fries. A friend got the vegetarian burger and said it was great too.
Great burgers and good value.

Attitude from staff can be rude if you don't like pink/red juices rinning out of your burger don't give new burger just reheats even after everything being on top of it.. The burgers are nice when could to liking..
f. G.
Excellent food excellent menu. Had to wait 30mins for table... well worth the wait. Lighting is atmospheric but i found it so dark i could not see my food and hadn't a hope of reading the menu.
R. C.
Absolutely loved the grub, as did we all. Deep friend pickles & peppers were to die for; good non-alcoholic beer. Music however was filling shatteringly loud so we ate and ran the second night we visited.
Hoarse the next day from having to shout at each other over dinner
Such a pity as the food and space were both excellent.
K. M.
Nice place, expensive, for a burger, side and drink roughly 18 - 22 euro per person, was told for a table of five of us that the bill could not be spilt. Long wait if you don't arrive early enough.
J. M.
Fantastic food, great atmosphere. Burgers of the month are always inventive and tasty!
S. G.
Have been there the first time since they reopened. Great burgers even if they aren't ink anyone. Angry fries are pretty unique and very tasty. Busy place, no parking.

Best burger I've ever eaten in Ireland. Tons of options and plenty of choices for drinks. The beef is completely from Ireland which made the burger even better! 9/10!

A must for all travellers

Very good burger place, pleasant atmosphere, always busy be prepared to wait to get a table.
To be honest I believe they are a bit overpriced.

Savoury food was mouth watering. Desserts were fair. I'd definitely go back for the burgers and sides. Was worth the wait.

Fabulous burger joint, well up to the standard set in London during the burger wars. Locally sourced fresh meat, which I understand is uncommon here.
If you are in cork, go visit - you will not regret it.

Great food, fun party atmosphere, definitely one of the best burger spots in the city & actually very good value for what you get

Great burgers. Will be back

Well overrated. A mediocre burger and fries costme 14 euro! Much better burgers in cork can be found in the liberty grill, the coqbull, or Bunsen
T. S.
Great service and plenty of seating. My burger was a bit dry but still delicious!

Best Burger in town

Good service. Only downside was they wouldn't let us split the bill even though there was only 5 of us. It was lunch time as well and not that busy. Great food though
E. J.
Probably the best burgers in Cork. Nice interior, great staff and short waiting times even during peak hours with a full restaurant.

Burger so good it cured my wicked hangover. highly recommend the veggie portobello mushroom burger 👌🏻 also enjoyed the many puns.
S. O.
I didn't think the burgers were up to the standard of other gourmet burgers I've had. Therefore comparing these burgers to others that were cheaper and better I was left feeling 'meh'. Wasn't terrible but wasn't great either.
N. B.
Nice burger but the staff are too busy to come back to your table or to be pleasant.

It's always unreal! Really friendly staff and amazing food. Great vegetarian options too :)

Nice location, great service, food was pristine! Really lovely and would recommend just the classic cheeseburger and fries combo.
E. P.
Amazing! Meet in the burgers is juicy and delicious, angry fries are spicy and flavoursome, top that with an Oreo milkshake and you get five stars.

Set us outside beside a public bin, no way to treat customers, but covid scenario allows this

Love this place - very cosy, fantastic burgers and friendly staff. Most burgers will set you back about 10 euro which is well worth it.

Food was great but felt under pressure to order just as I sat down was asked if I wanted desert just as I finished the main course the sweet potato fries were removed before I was finished them and the bill was produced just as fast as if they wanted us to move on
