    Excellent little cafe in an street off Oliver Plunket. No fuss sandwiches. Ideal for a quick lunch. Tried the ham and cheese and the vegan deluxe. They use a fluffy flowery bap or blaa or some other type of bun which was super nice! Coffee wasn’t bad either !

    Place is open 24hrs which is awesome. They have an amazing hot chocolate. Hot milk with chocolate on the end of a stick. Real good. One of the downsides is the entryway where there's always someone smoking and it just travelled up the ramp. Sometimes if there's a gang of young people it's a wall of smoke to get in.

    It’s a creepy place. Every few weeks they get in new European teenagers to work here, assuming for no pay. These kids just go around cleaning up while the other staff watch on.other than this it’s fine. Just creepy

    Francis makes the BEST oat milk latte in all of Cork City. I know because I’ve tried every coffee shop in the city. Even last minute, right before close, they were so kind and accommodating. Good vibes good times, cannot say enough good things about this coffee shop. Compared to coffee in the US, it is also VERY reasonably priced. You cannot go wrong with Cafe Eco

    Absolutely gorgeous food! Been here before and it was mid at best but with the new management you can tell this place is glowing! Caesar’s salad was delicious and for the price of €6.50 it’s literally more worth it than some other restaurants. The coffee was also delicious, finally good coffee that you can customize with different syrups. I would absolutely come again!

    Used to be my favourite place in college, they still have fantastic hot chocolates, friendly staff, broad opening hours. Minus 1 star for currently only serving in disposable takeaway cups even if you’re staying in ☹️ (so remember to bring your own if you want to avoid the unnecessary waste, they do accept that 🥳), and another for the fact they’re not asking for vaccination certs when staying in. Not the safest thing these days... also, if you’re asking for a non dairy order, depending on the barista, keep an eye out as I’m pretty sure I ended up with dairy milk instead of oat milk once recently. 🤭

    This is a great place to hang out with friends, use the computers in the back, study or pop in for tea and coffee. They have a big menu of hot drinks and food as well as treats and some snacks. The fact that it's 24 hours means its a great place to go if nowhere else is open or you just fancy a pot of hot tea at 10pm in a cute lil café (the Moroccan tea is a great go-to)

    Enjoyed a nice sausage pastry with a cup of coffee on a drizzly morning and took in my surroundings. Was perfect and the only damn thing open!

    Place where you can also print and use a desktop pc If you need it, or simply sipping a coffee or getting a meal. Definitely a good landmark in the city center with contained prices

    Love this place. Often come here to get work done whenever i'm back in town. Can recommend to anyone looking to do the same. The food is great, staff is nice, and there is often a place to nestle away and people-watch in peace
