M. G. A. v. d. B.

We booked for a Saturday 10am brunch and it's quite busy already which was a good sign. We had lovely coffee and very filling & satisfying food. I was just expecting more flavor on the pulled pork given its name "Mexican" but still it was tasty and egg is a bit overcooked for my liking. Loved the hollandaise sauce in the eggs benedict though we prefer more runny poached eggs. If you're looking for heavy but reasonably priced brunch, this place is a perfect choice.

A. V.

Nice stuff and good food. Nothing to ask for more. On top a really nice location and a good area to go after the food with a full belly for a little walk. The place is as well a really nice place for brunch or even just a coffee but i would recommend to reserve a table before and its small and really busy.

J. K.

Nice variety of different types of food. Outdoor space in the front and back. Staff are friendly

O. M. G.

Food was ok, bit too much going on with some dishes (for our taste), but can't fault how it's put together, clearly high quality ingredients etc. Bar man seemed overly jumpy about people's movements, though greeters/food servers were top class. Nice setting.

M. W.

Had a delicious lunch at Salt today. Fab staff, lovely decor and clean toilets. Tables were well spaced to ensure social distancing and some tables had transparent partitions between them. Looking forward to my next visit.

M. T.

Amazing food full of suprises. Coffee crèm brûlée is absolutely amazing and the combination of apple tart with ginger ice-cream takes you to another level. Serving size is perfect and atmosphere is ideal for relaxing and chatts. Would highly recommend.

M. O. F.

Great food, service was impeccable and not pricey. Overall, a really chilled out place to dine and while away an evening.

D. F.

M. E.

Great stuff. Friendly staff, good food, reasonably priced.

S. Z.

A great little find just outside the city centre, Salt is perfect for a long lunch or a date night. As well as being really tasty, the food is always beautifully presented and the staff are great too. Plenty of healthier options too for people following low carb diets.

R. G.

Great place for a brunch. Good service and great food.

V. Z.

Went there for a Saturday brunch. Quick service, cozy atmosphere and absolutely delicious food.

E. O.

Vibrant atmosphere, pleasant staff and unique food, would visit again!

B. A.

10 out of 10! Magnificent staff and wonderful food ♡ We went for breakfast and order egg Benedit and egg royal, so tasty good and great presentation. We definetly will go back again.

A. C.

Tapas style dinner was very filling. Great service, food and wine. A great addition to Cork.

m. c.

Nice food nice staff great to have outside seating also. Would recommend if on that side of city.

G. B.

Thoroughly gorgeous food, nice vibe, lovely staff. Great spot in an unlikely place.

A. G.

Lovely place with really nice staff. Food choice was very poor, I understand and agree with just few options in menus, but here I got just very few pub like dishes. Ordered toasted bread with bechamel, ham and cheese. Have to admit it was the most expensive toast in my life. I wouldn’t come back for the food, but for glass of wine an dessert for sure.

W. C.

Went here with my brother who is a chef as he likes the spot. I have to say I agree with him. Great for brunch or light bite. The staff were lovely and it's pretty reasonable as well

H. F. (. D.

Great food, perfect place for summer where you can spend hours sitting amd talki g amd still feel fresh. Highly recommended

F. D. P.

Great food - highly recommended

F. R.

J. C.

Unreal spot for breakfast. Food was 10/10 , great veggie options and the service was impeccable, super friendly staff, made you feel right at home

R. O.

Beautiful place, had a lovely time.

m. p.

Great food, super service. Couldn't recommend enough!!!!

T. C.

Nice location, a bit pricey for the offering. Not great on allergens, only 3 dairy free options and turned one of them had dairy anyway, 3 stars instead of 2 as they accommodated and modified the dish however specifically states they will not do that.

M. O. B.

Delicious vegetarian dishes there I could not wait and lovely staff

P. O. C.

We came across Salt by accident, stopped because we thought it looked interesting, we were not disappointed. We shared a cheese board, and had some wine. Both were excellent. Staff friendly and attentive, the restaurant had a good vibe to it. We will return for a more substantial meal and wine tasting session, I am looking forward to that experience.

D. M.

Had a bit of a wait for a table but I had no problem at all with waiting seeing how busy they were, staff were very friendly and polite and offered us coffee and all while we waited. Excellent food and outstanding service. Will definitely make it a habit to return here

j.

I would highly reccomend Salt. Very clean. Very proffessional staff. Food was fantastic. I tasted all 4 and they were all great. These dishes were roughly €13. Unfortunately i forgot to photograph the deserts they were stunning a coffee kalua cremme brulee and a chocolate cake. The desserts were big and cost €6.50.They were both to diè for. Do yourself a favour if you are in cork and visit Salt. You will be very glad you did. The staff couldnt have been nicer. Cant reccomend the place highly enough.

T. M.

Great food with a varied menu! Would go back again just to try the different dishes. Very nice and professional staff. Covid measures taken seriously and helped to put us at ease.

j. o.

Nice outdoor seating, great food and really nice staff.

Y. C.

The quality of the food is superb! The only thing is that I like eating alot and the portion for breakfast was a little bit small for me, nothing that a pistacho chocolate scone couldn't fix! Highly recommended.

F. P.

Nice vibe, friendly staff, and got lovely takeaway coffee and a selection of really nice pastries.

M. O.

Really nice place, decent portions for tapas, which is a nice change as usually Irish tapas places can be stingy but that's not the case here! It's very popular so advisable to make a booking. The calamari, tacos and sliders were great, as was the service which was really friendly.

F. B.

Excellent French Toast, great coffee, Eggs Basquaise not as described on the menu ie the eggs were scrambled with peppers whereas the menu says eggs on a bed of peppers etc. Would visit again for sure

R. M.

Lovely place for brunch.

B. B.

Delicious breakfast in a cosy setting with friendly staff. Eggs Benedict where delicious with crispy bacon and fluffy English muffin. Coffee was alright. Nothing to rave about and can certainly be improved. I'd gladly come back!

Z. K.

Gorgeous food, great atmosphere and super nice staff. Had a wonderful time here!

M. N.

Delicious brunch food and lovely waitress who served us on a busy Sunday morning. We were a table of six but the order and payments went smoothly. We will return.

P. P.

We had Brunch here and we really enjoyed it, the staff were very friendly and the food tasted lovely and it was hard to pick from the menu because everything looked lovely.

J. B.

pleasant and atmospheric wine bar and bistro on Victoria Road side of Cork City. Suitable for coffee with friends, light dinner and drinks in the evening. Prompt and friendly service. Food delicious.

T. M.

Various selection of food in a very good price. Meals are rich in flavour, delicious, nicely cooked and served. You can have a meal even you're just a bit hungry. Desserts are amazing, especially the chocolate tart cake. The best one I ever had. Coffees are very tasty, various types also with almond or oatmilk. There's no wifi which I truly loved. Of course you can use your own internet but better to talk to each other. Perfect for couples or groups of friends too. Staff is very kind and helpful. I'll definitely visit it and have a meal there again.

N. M.

2nd visit Returned for Brunch and it was excellent. The standard of everything has gone up over time and I am really looking forward to coming back. 1st visit Enjoyed the atmosphere and look and feel of SALT. The food was not memorable or overly exciting however some tapas dishes were v satisfactory. I will come again but I think there are better places in Cork for a similar meal.

B. C.

Good service and an interesting menu

D. S.

Walking distance from the city center (about 20). Great staff and great position to get some sun in the afternoon and evening. However, food wise, there are very few options for vegetarians and nothing for vegans. They kind of improvised something for us but offering an option would be appreciated.

I. O.

Amazing coffee, location & friendly staff.

g. k.

Nice food, bit over priced, didn't have half the dishes on the menu when we arrived at 8pm. Small bites for 10eur per plate which was not great value. Wine list looked nice but was not willing to pay 40eur for a bottle of wine...

A. W.

One young staff person accidentally spilt our drink.- this of course can happen anyone, but there was no offer of a replacement drink or any kind of sincere apology...she was quite oblivious to irish expectations ...food lovely though

S. S.

Had a fantastic family breakfast at this restaurant. It is more of a brunch. The owners are very hands on and all the staff are attentive. Will be back.

A. P.

Nice option if you are around this area. Lovely food & friendly people. Great if you are looking for a spot to enjoy your coffee in the sun (whenever possible).

J. S.

Excellent scrambled eggs for breakfast. Beautiful setting and friendly staff. Breakfast menu a little limited but this is off-set by the quality. Dropped a star as there was no orange juice.

A.

Really enjoy going here. Brunch is great, have never been for dinner. You never wait too long for a table either. Reasonable priced as well. 👍

D. P.

Food quality used to be better. Service has never been great but it's getting worse. We waited more than 20m for the coffee last time. Can no longer go there for lunch on work days

J. Z.

Really nice! Pleasently surprised! Had coffee and french toast and both were top class. Friendly service and cool deco! Would return and highly recommend.

P. K. O.

C. E.

Great food, friendly and fun staff 👍🏻. Best brunch of my life was eaten here.

Nice cosy spot. Friendly staff. The Mixed Plate is very good value with nice cheeses, tapenade, paté, bread etc. Good wine range by the glass or bottle.

m. m.

Salt is a wonderful oasis in Cork city and a welcome addition to the local food scene, the chef makes great food using fabulous ingredients, the staff are very friendly and they serve a fantastic South African wine called Leopards Leap - best of all its good value which you cant say about many places in this city

N. T.

The best tiramisu in Ireland! 😋

A. O. C.

The waiting staff here are so nice and helpful we were served so quickly and the sandwiches were beautiful and they even brought water for the dog without even having to ask! We would have given 5 stars but just before we left the experience was ruined by the chef coming out to abuse a delivery guy who had maybe brought the wrong bin the guy delivering was polite and rectified the problem right away he even bought his lunch there! Honestly it would make us reconsider coming back, watching the chef run out furious to shout at the poor guy. Not what you want to experience in any business.

(Translated) Not a bad place, very close to the port, but a little out of the way. The organization of the reception of visitors is very clear. We did not book a table and out of habit went to a free one. We were asked to wait at the bar, and after a couple of minutes we were seated. I liked the food, the interior too. The waiters are smart. Not bad. The prices are adequate. I recommend. (Original) Не плохое место очень близко от порта, но чуть в стороне. Организация приёма посетителей очень четкая. Мы не заказывали столик и по привычке прошли за свободный. Нас попросили подождать возле барной стойки и через пару минут посадили на место. Еда понравилась, интерьер тоже.Официанты работают шустро. Неплохо. Цены адекватные.Рекомендую.
