Lab 82 Coffee 82 Lower Glanmire Road, Cork, County Cork T23 TK20

"This is a fabulous experience if you’re in cork. Perfect delicious Eggs Benedict and a full Irish and the best service we’ve ever had. Really friendly and professional staff and we loved the design, especially the ducks! Food and coffees amazing. Highly recommended. Right beside the train station and The Dean. Best breakfast ever"

"Lovely deserts, lovely food! Visited few times already and always left happy and content. Reccomend! UPDATE: Lab82 has solidified it's status of our favorite place to eat in the city since I left my review 3 months ago. Food is consistently scrumptious and packed with flavor, no matter what we ordered it was both a lovely visual experience and a pleasure for the taste buds! Savory or sweet - you can't go wrong - their brownies, cookies and cakes are dangerously good (their sweet selection tastes just decadent) and their egg dishes are my favorite ones in the city. They have vegetarian dishes on the menu as well if you'd like to change things up a bit! If you are into coffee, you should definitely visit and try their delicious blends from around the world (which you can also buy and enjoy at home!), one of the silkiest coffee I had enjoyed was in the Lab. Located across the Kent railway station it is a perfect breakfast/brunch stop before a trip or after returning from one. The interior is eclectic and fun, offering you a chance to see what's cooking in the kitchen through a glass panel in the floor - nice touch for both adults and kids! They do have a website (you can order sweet goodies, cookies, brownies and cakes in their online bakery) and a QR code at the table (if coming with a group and wishing to pay through the app it can be handy). Staff is lovely, attentive and gives nice reccomendation if you're not sure what to go for. I like the fact the owner is interacting with everyone, ensuring we're getting the best experience and really makes you feel welcome, and adds a nice personal touch. Overall, this place is a 10/10 - both for locals and visitors. You'll enjoy gorgeous food, eat decadent deserts, drink really good coffee in a fun environment and feel welcome and tempted to return every day! Added photos of Eggs Florentine and Let's get smashed w/added mushrooms."

"One of my favorite places to go within Cork, the menu whilst not extensive is all delicious, I've never had a meal here that didn't leave me satisfied. I'm a big fan of the Eggs Benedict / Florentine, the desserts are amazing as well. The general vibe and atmosphere in here is quite unique and really stands out amongst the other restaurants/ cafes within the city, they've a Plexi glass / glass panel built into the floor near the seated area which grants you a view into the kitchen where you can see the desserts being made. Portion sizes are good and the value for money is great here. The owner of the place is often around and goes out of his way to make you feel welcome and adds a charm to the place you don't get elsewhere. Whilst I'm not a coffee enthusiast personally the coffee here was one of the best I've had. Option to order via QR code at the table also available for those who would rather less social interaction."

"Lab 82 is always good. After a short 10-15 queue, seat inside were given. Orders were taken quickly. There is a great menu covering the standard fare but also unusual dishes to suit all tastes. Good coffees and milkshakes too"
