Top 10 Bar food in Carrigaline, Province of Munster, Ireland
Reviews on Bar food in Carrigaline, Province of Munster, Ireland. Carrigaline (Irish: Carraig Uí Leighin, meaning "rock of Ó Leighin") is a commuter town and civil parish in County Cork, Ireland. It is about 14 km south of Cork city which can be reached by car in 25 minutes (along the R611, which passes through the town, and then the N28 Ringaskiddy–Cork road). Carrigaline has grown rapidly in recent years, from a village of a few hundred people into a thriving town, although many locals still refer to it as "the village". The town is one of the key gateways to West Cork, especially for those who arrive by ferry from France.

The Bosun Bar, Restaurant and accommodation is located on the bank of the river Lee where it turns the corner into Cork Harbour. There is an outside drinking/eating area and the view is excellent and even better at night. We decided to have our dinner there. We chose to eat in the bar. I don't know if the restaurant was open or not but there was no one in it. The bar had a good sprinkling of diners. There was no trouble getting a reservation at short notice. The tables are small bar type tables so we had to push 3 of them together to accommodate our party of 5. It was still awkward to facilitate all the plates and glasses though. There is a comprehensive Afternoon/evening bar menu as well as an Early Bird bar menu. The menu is well signposted to identify where there are allergen risks and has Gluten friendly options. There are 15 items on the Starter section. Prices on the Evening menu range from Soup (â¬5.30), through pate, wings, sea food potato cakes at â¬9.50 to the top end fried scampi â¬12.00 and crab claws at â¬13.30. There are 15 mains choices as well as 9 sea food choices and 9 sandwich type options. Mains are around â¬20-25 for such as beef stroganoff, lasange, carbonara and chicken and top end steak, duck, prawn dishes at â¬25 upwards. Sea food ranges from around â¬20 for the more common, cod, plaice, salmon to â¬27 for monkfish, sea food platters or medleys. Sandwiches are â¬9.20 at the low end (ham or chicken) to â¬15.50 for anything with crab or prawns. These are not cheap prices so the execution needs to be spot on to give value. The Early bird is a selection of the above and comes at â¬25.50 for 2 courses and â¬29.20 for 3 courses, which is good value. Some of us chose the Early bird menu and some the Evening menu. First the Early Bird eaters. One starter was chosen which was a half rack(6) of baby back ribs with barbecue sauce. It was quite acceptable. 2 of us also choose the Trio of salmon, cod and hake in a creamy leek sauce. The Bosun boasts of its sea food prowess and this was well executed - beautifully cooked with crispy skin, the salmon especially well done. It came with a mountain of veg - 2 types of potato and 3 veg choices. The Al a Carte eaters chose the Carbonara - polished off and voted good, the Thai Red Curry with prawns - said to be good but was a large portion and not finished and the monkfish medallions with crab meat and a roasted red pepper salsa declared to be very good. Service through out was good and we managed the table situation even though it was not ideal. In summary its Pub grub with the best bit of it the focus on the sea food. Would I go back - yes I would but I would be having the better value Early Bird and choosing fish.

We visited Barryâs pub/ restaurant and had a pint in the bustling bar until our table was ready . Excellent food served impeccably by very well mannered waiters made for a lovely night overall. If Carlsberg did bustling pub/ restaurants it would probably be Barryâs of Douglas.

A light lunch on a rainy day in Cobh. The roasted pepper and tomato soup filled the bill. Along with a perfectly pored Guinness, a perfect lunch.

I found this pub/restaurant totally by accident. I had been travelling, with my two dogs, in a camper van along Cork's lovely coastline when I ran out of gas - including the spare - on a Saturday evening! A response to a frantic call for help directed me to Cork Gas, which is on Forge Hill Road, near Cork Airport, so I made my way there on Sunday so that I wouldn't be searching for it during rush hour on Monday morning. When I spotted the Bull McCabe's across the junction on the Cork airport road I decided to go there for dinner as I couldn't cook in the camper without gas. I also asked if it was possible that I could park up in their car park for the night so that I could get my gas first thing Monday. Let me be clear - this pub/restaurant does not allow camper vans to park there, as I discovered the following morning. But, because I was a woman driving solo, with two dogs, they allowed me to stay the night, gratis and graciously. I'm vegetarian and asked if I could have a veggie pizza and take it out to the van to eat. I got the best pizza I think I have ever eaten in my life - and possibly the biggest too! It was piled high with all sorts of colourful and delicious toppings, and, at just 11 euro, was so big that I couldn't eat breakfast or lunch the following day. And it was piping hot... Earlier, clients as well as staff had responded to my query as to where I could take the dogs for a good run with advice and directions to Blackrock Castle. It was good advice. The following morning, one of the extremely kind staff brought me out the black coffee (all I could manage after the pizza) so that I could drink it outside with my dogs - on leads, of course - beside me. They say food prepared with love and kindness tastes better. I suspect that the cooking skill that went into preparing that pizza would have tasted delicious no matter what - but the kindness I received there certainly added a very special flavour to it all. Again, I repeat, this pub does not allow camper vans to stay over: they were simply responding with kindness to a bit of an emergency. But, if you're driving a car, and you want delicious food, served in a warm and welcoming atmosphere, I couldn't recommend this pub more highly. Thanks, Bull McCabes - you do Cork proud!

We had a very enjoyable Sunday lunch a few days ago. Both our starters were excellent : the seafood soup had a Mediterranean feel and the black pudding tart had a deliciously crisp base. The roast lamb was perfectly cooked and it was accompanied by a generous portion of vegetables. The sticky toffee pudding was very tasty, if a bit short on toffee sauce. We would definitely return and we would recommend the restaurant to friends. The only minus point for us was that we remember the old cubicle layout of the restaurant some years ago and we missed that.

Walked into a very clean pub to have a late breakfast. The young man was very friendly and efficient. Nice English breakfast,well presented. A bucks group of about 20 guys came in, he had a quiet word with them and they left. Not long after the pub got quite busy with people watching the footy. We Aussies lost both games. Great venue, efficient staff.

Reviewed By Seehanes
As a return visitor my fondness for the Bodega is largely fuelled by nostalgia, for when it first opened in the 1990s it was well ahead of its time in combining sophistication and comfort with a large open plan layout in a beautiful refurbished building - a formula which has since been applied in numerous other locations. The Bodega has not lost its appeal, and upstairs provides a tasteful separate space for private functions.
