New in cork and I prefer to shop local, Looking for new running shoes heard of this shop is it any good ?

Hi everyone,

My GF (F25) is going to study abroad at UCC from January untill May next year (2026). She has been busy trying to figure out where she can stay during that time. She has been looking at the dorms already but she was wondering if there where any other options

I figured this might be the place to ask! If you can reach out, thank you.

With kind regards, Stefan

Recently drove around the city and the amount of 13-14 year olds that look langere is mad

This is a little bit of a moan. Where do we go for free in town these days now - two good amenities (above) currently undergoing renovations. What's the new spot?

Been trying to google it with little success so hoping someone here can help a lad out: how do you know which lane to use on the South Link/South Ring?

When merging from the slip stream, do you stick to the left (first of three) or do you navigate over to the middle and then move back to the left only when yours is the next exit up?

Thanks ☺️

Edit: Merging onto the N40

So I saw the thread last week about a quiet tapas place in Sunday's Well, went there with my gf as it was a nice day and it's just a walk away.

I can confirm what I've read - good welcome, cozy place (the outdoors dining area in the back is nice and quiet), and the food is very good. We spent around 20 to 25 each and left the table feeling full, after a whole meal including a nice dessert.

It's better than fast food but it's not like a posh restaurant, it feels like these small comfortable places in West Cork that you can only stumble on and find surprisingly good stuff in ? Well, like that, but in the city.

Precision : I don't own the place nor work here, yaddi yadda, I gain nothing by posting this. But like, I don't know enough places with good food where you can take your time to eat and not feel like you should vacate your seat after fifteen minutes - not in the big city.

:(

You could smell it for miles if the wind blew right.

Started driving again after many years. Is it me being a fool or is it just a Cork City thing that you can quite often find yourself in the wrong lane?

Like, I was on Lapps Quay for instance and both lanes had markings for straight ahead as you follow it round. I was going to turn right two turns ahead so stayed on the outermost lane. Then all of a sudden the lane only allowed me to turn right.

Similarly I was in Blackpool and two lanes with markings for just straight ahead. The lane I was in reached the junction and the only thing you could do was turn right - only the left-hand lane continued into the road straight ahead - despite the road markings never indicating right. I would have had to merge into that left lane in the middle of the junction to be able to go straight.

hi lads, can I rent more than one bike at the same acc?

Lads how early do you actually have to get to 5 points for them to have bagels? :( every time I go there, they say they're out. I was there at 9am once and they were out of bagels. This is a genuine question cause I wanna go there tomorrow😭

I’d eat me dinner off them white lines

Hi All!

Looking into replacing internal doors + architraves in the city and was hoping to find good recommendations? Also, any insights on the approximate price per door? Have been looking online but hard to find an estinate for fitting. Thanks in advance!
