Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

    This is a great place to walk around and get lost. I recommend going after you've eaten. Otherwise, you'll be tempted to buy everything! It's a pretty big place and easy to get lost in. Lots of good food and things to buy. I recommend going to On The Pigs Back. They've got a variety of meat, cheese, and bread.

    Got to be honest was quite surprised how good this place was. Some really fascinating art pieces, modern and old and some great Irish and Cork art. Lovely setting too and a lovely quaint book shop.

    and it's free...

    Would highly recommend you visit this place if in Cork

    Treasure hunters will not be disappointed! Everyone in our big family found something special and unique. The best souvenirs have some Irish history. Love Mo Jo’s

    My husband and I avail of any opportunity to visit this beautiful Venue. The intimate coffee/wine Dock is a welcome stop off before the Cinema. The patrons who visit appear to have a genuine appreciation of the arts, as there is no popcorn munching, unwrapping of sweets or mobile phone intrusions. The City Centre venue makes for convenience and the staff are always helpful and pleasant. We look forward to receiving the weekly Schedules so that we can plan our next visit.

    Great selection of shops - very clean and very friendly staff in all of the shops. I was there on a Thursday and there is an outdoor market - which offers wonderful products... On the day of my visit - a lot of cars but didn't appear crowded in the Shopping centre which is great for people who don't like crowds.

    Came here with my family for breakfast and to do a bit of shopping, the staff were very helpful and checked the stock when we couldn’t find something the prices are very reasonable and this is a place I’ll keep doing my shopping.

    I went here with my boyfriend and they have many shops! Our favourite one was Penneys. The downfall was the closing time. Many shops were closed

    Fabulous and worth every bit of the effort to go here. Shout out to Geraldine who isn't outstanding sales associate and who helped us find sweaters of all kinds in the right sizes and styles. She made a huge effort towards our group

    It is located at the end of town (to a new tourist's eyes like me).

    Plenty of good foods and fruits and lovely people!

    Compare to shopping complex I prefer markets.

    Purpose-built gallery in the grounds of UCC.
    As is always the way with such spaces, the appeal depends on the programming...

    This place is great for light meals, teas & coffee, everything is prepared in-house by the chef and served up by a friendly and helpful server.

    We stop of regularly for breakfast, coffee breaks and on one occasion and never had a bad experience.

    This has some wonderful local produce and also great fresh food stalls. It's a pity it's only on Thursdays. I'd go every Saturday if it was on
