The New Yorker Bar

"Lovely food , everything was cooked to perfection, staff were very helpful and accomodating, would recommend a meal here"

"I was staying overnight in hotel, and my parents and sister decided we'd eat at the New Yorker that evening before my flight the next morning. The reviews were good and the menu seemed to contain "safe" options for various palates. We sat outside (trying to avoid Covid) and it was cold despite the warm July day - some shelter from the wind would have made all the difference. I had soup which was poor, and served with stale soda bread. I'd spent the weekend in West Cork eating delicious bread with every meal, so it felt unnecessarily bad! My sister ordered stir fry noodles with chicken. The noodles were fine, but instead of chicken mixed in as you'd expect...it was just a chicken breast plonked on top. Like something you'd get in a canteen. Parents both ordered a burger. Mum's was fine, Dad's was burnt. I ordered cheesecake to share which was nice, but unmemorable and very small for the price. Service was very friendly and that's why it gets 3 stars. There's a real warmth to the staff that makes you feel guilty for thinking the food is terrible. I felt completely robbed paying for the meal, however, and wouldn't go again. A sandwich from the nearest garage would be less of a disappointment."

"Lovely staff and nice selection of drinks and starters to be had at the bar Had the hotwings with blue cheese dip was lovely yet messy Offered desserts menu and declines but the seed was planted then and ordered the cheese cake which was devine Tried a red breast 12 whisky and a Murphy's and a Guinness or two and went to bed happy"

"Lousy food and lousy service. Not just one time experience. Went last month and we were served our food without drinks, we had to ask for tap water. No one in the staff checking tables. Today we asked for bread with our mediocre overpriced salad and we were served two slices of fridge cold packaged bread. Worst experience so far in Cork."

"I’ve eaten here a few times now and it’s always been excellent. My wife is vegetarian and my son is a picky eater and both very well well catered for. Food is excellent, well cooked, good ingredients and excellent range of choice on the menu. The staff are excellent too. A real highlight. Very highly recommended."
