What a fun spot that feels like a permanent pop up in the middle of Cork. We stopped in this tiny abode before leaving Cork to head to rosscarbery. The staff was so friendly (as all Irish people seem to be) and the coffee was great. We sat and enjoyed flat whites and hot chocolate with one of us ordering a caramel latte. Every drink was well crafted and perfectly brewed. They had a selection of pastries that we didn't try this time. There's not a lot to seating but we were able to cozy up at a table and still really enjoyed ourselves.
There is a selection of merchandise for purchase as well has three Fools beans which I learned is from Portugal where it's also roasted.
Because of its size, close tables, and taller ordering bar, it's not the most accessible friendly place of business. It wouldn't be impossible, but it really depends how busy it is.
Great spot. Would definitely be a regular if I weren't a tourist...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreYesterday afternoon, I had a very unpleasant experience in this cafe. Absolutely disappointed by the behavior of two of the female staff. Absolutely rude and unprofessional behavior, arrogant, arrogant and demonstrative by one of the staff yesterday, I later found out that her colleague was also fully lack of customer service and empathy.

The insult, shame and misunderstanding of what caused such an attitude from that employee in front of all the other customers and staff yesterday, is unclear for me, and I would like to get ...
Ā Ā Ā Read moreDeadly coffee in a deadly city. The Glass pod is nestled in one of Cork's liveliest streets and is the perfect nook in the city to stop & chill with some top notch coffee. The guys who run the store genuinely care for each cup that comes out, I've never had a bad cup in here & I'm a regular in the place. Always perfect temperature, never burnt, the standard & science of coffee brewing is ever present. Top all that off with some of the best customer service you'll find. There is alot to be said for being friendly when it comes to facing customers but everyone who works here has a way of making you feel like you've always been there. The best cup of coffee in the city hands down. Top notch beans to take home then if that takes your fancy. If you're visiting Cork, make sure to make this part of...
