Farmgate Resturant & Country Store

Reviewed By RicHarBat - Puglia

Ate lunch here on a local recommendation and returned again.
The restaurant has an unusal decor and furniture mix that works, the service is quick efficient and attentive.
The place has a wide menu with food that's fresh, beautifully cooked and presented.
Not only is the food so good but the portions are generous as well, which allows one to enjoy the wonderful taste for longer than some places with smaller servings permit !
Prices are reasonable and the end of meal coffee is also very good.
This place is now definitely on our map, and we will continue to enjoy visits here in the future.
... to avoid a disappointment be aware though, that the restaurant is closed Sundays and Mondays, does lunches only on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, and on Thursday, Friday and Saturday is open for lunch and evenings.

Sage has to be up there with the best restaurants in co cork. A beautifully presented meal, with a nice choice. It was well heated on a cold night, and the ambiance was just right for a pleasant relaxing meal. Full marks to the two lady waiters for their courtesy and service.

Finin's Restaurant

Finin O'Sullivan's thriving bar and restaurant in the centre of Midleton town has long been a popular place for locals to meet for a drink and to eat some good wholesome food. The entrance is bright and cheery, painted in pillarbox red and white, and the theme is continued inside, where black topped tables are simply set up with the basics needed for a meal. This attractive, no-nonsense place offers a wide range of popular home-made dishes, mostly based on local produce notably fresh seafood from Ballycotton and harbour steaks, also old favourites like a well-made Irish Stew; evening menus are more extensive and include some more specialities including roast duckling. Good short wine list.

Reviewed By Kieran D

We recently revisited Finin's in Midleton and once again had an excellent meal. Pate to start and steak for main course both excellent. My wife had goats cheese to start and fish for mains and again both were excellent, add great service and really good ambience and it was the perfect meal. Already looking forward to returning for more

O'Donovan's Restaurant

Reviewed By Shel02 - Cork, Ireland

The food here is always beautiful. The only negative is the menu doesn't change. As a vegetarian I have eaten here three times and the three times my only option was the same. It was beautiful but would like more choice for vegetarians.
The owner is very friendly and the staff are all pleasant. Would definitely recommend.

Pizzeria San Marco

Authentic Italian restaurant with wood-fired pizza oven and Italian chefs. Family friendly and great for groups. We can also accommodate customers who wish to eat gluten free pizzas and pastas. We serve beer, wine, prosecco and non-alcoholic beer. Homemade desserts and daily specials. Open bank holidays from 12pm - 9:30pm

Reviewed By Anne O - Arona

Good place for family, friends get together or casual dining for couples who want a nice meal st reasonable prices. They have a wood burning oven & the pizzas are tastier than elsewhere in Midleton. This times had a yummy salad with goats cheese in filo pastry & walnuts with a light dressing. My hubby loves the calzone pizza here. We had a nice red wine to wash it down. The staff are fun & helpful & the food is served in a short time - they offer meat, pasta & some fish dishes which I will get around to trying another time. Prices are mid range so you don't feel ripped off here & food is very tasty.

Two Mile Inn Restaurant

Reviewed By unkybuck - Tralee, Ireland

Stopped off for breakfast. We were greeted by a friendly owner whos full of whitty Dublin banter. The menu was wide and varied, from your full coronary stopper to DIY plates and salmon options.
The food was hot, prompt and of good quality and very reasonably priced.
There are spacious Gardens which makes it a great facility for yoing families despite being so close to the main road.
My only gripe is the aroma of beer from the night before, but in fairness to the owner he did offer to set us up a table in the garden.
Good food
Good value
Good stop

Sunday is a day to relax and having lunch in Ferrit and Lee is the ideal location. It has a very easy athmoshphere provided by a very courteous staff. There is a great choice of excellent food which is beautifully presented. Their seafood chowder is perfect and the hake is terrific to follow. Add the date and sticky toffee pudding and you have had a geat meal for 28 euro.

Located in the heart of Midleton, the Granary is a local family run café restaurant and foodstore.

Sit outside in our lovely square and enjoy the Sunshine and may be a cake… Our food is prepared in house using only fresh local ingredients. Service is friendly, efficient and caring, always!

Popped into The Granary after having visited the Jameson's Distillery for a quick bite to eat. Found this place after walking down the high street and glad we popped in.
The food was exceptional and great value for money. They also had a great selection of cakes on offer for those with a sweat tooth. Certainly worth a visit if you are in the area!
