Jim Cashmans — Restaurant in Cork

I might only be giving this pub 3 stars, but it is probably worth a little more than that. I called in twice while I was in Cork, mainly because the outside gives the impression of a proper old style pub, and it doesn't deceive! It is great to see this style of pub still in existence so close to a large city centre. It is very basic inside, but comfortable, and has a number of TV's for watching sport etc. I had a few pints of Murphy's which were delicious, but there was also a reasonable selection of other drinks. Toilets were spotless, as was the place in general. The only thing it was missing, was an atmosphere. Maybe it was coincidental that when I called, there were only 2 or 3 people in it, and even at that, there was no conversations going on. From an asthetic perspective, it has a lot going for iteself, but it needs to build its atmosphere. I hope to be in Cork again soon, and will call in maybe on a weekend night, and can review again if it...

We had a very bad experience @ Jim Cashmans bar unfortunately. 😔

We ordered some food and drinks there: What we didn’t know - and we weren’t warned by any staff - that they were going to order our food (a pepperoni pizza and chicken tenders with chips) from the shop beside the bar - called Uncle Pete’s 🤦🏻‍♀️

The pizza was ordinary and way overpriced. While the chicken tender and the chips were tasting fish and impossible to eat. The cutlery also came dirty!🤢 After our complaints the staff agreed to not charge us the chips. 🙄

The drinks - which we assumed it could be at least better than the food since it is bar - also disappointed us: the mojito was watery and tasted water with sugar and a wee taste of mint while the alcohol free beer came hot alongside a glass with ice cubes to cool it down (?!) 😵‍💫

We don’t recommend this...

Twas a grey grey day, I was inclined and feeling open, to a creamy drop. I was wearing my trusty dewalts not a scuff in sight. I was feeling strong like a rolled steel joint (RSJ). I had my trusty work friend with me when we happened upon this lovely little battle cruiser (BOOZER). After a Guinness we’re persuaded to have a creamy beamy (beamish). Scrumptious delightful some might say the air was palpable. We necked a few staring at the walls which are nice and talking to the legendary bar man himself. He is a legend. Roy Keane brother often goes to this little joint. At this point I was spinning my work mate was straight on my case he said “ you’ve had a few” I said YOUVE HAD A FEW YOURSELF. We parted ways I’ve never seen him since. I do miss that viscous little man from time to time. Here’s to...
