This was an amazing tour. We sorted with an Irish coffee and then hit the English Market which was amazing.i wanted to try the spicey beef and we started there and then moved on beef pie, raw oysters, steamed prawns, smoked mackerel, seaweed, fresh berries, sweets, Guinness abd cheeses. It was all delicious abd peppered eith stores from our guide who was a native. Best food tour I hace had.

Excellent!

Fran was an outstanding guide not just for the English Market but for the history behind the market and Cork. We will definitely reconnect with her tour company when we are in Cork again!

Cork Food Tour

Excellent tour with Francis, nice mix of history, tasting amazing local foods and getting many great tips and recommendations for other days on our trip. Francis was very personable, she made everyone in the group feel comfortable. A highlight was watching her interact with the local vendors in the market and the pride they take in their products. I highly recommend booking this tour!

I’ve done quite a few...

I’ve done quite a few food reviews - this was my favorite so far. Great food, drink, guide, and a meat pie that is to die for!
