Webmonkey · 12-01-2010 10:58PM

@tut... Yeah that one. It's at end of barracks st, just up from college road a bit.

12-01-2010 10:59PM

The one you refer to as Barrack Street is not doubt the one on Bandon Road me thinks, don't agree with you though, great food and minty clean kitchen. I worked in Galvins years ago and knew some staff in Lennoxs fairly well, they are constantly cleaning the place.

Theres three in the city. There is the original Jackies which is the one on Bandon road(or barracks street as some of ye are calling it ;p)

Then theres the c.f lennoxes who is the cousin of the owner of the original. They have one on Anglesea street and also one out in Ballyphehane(tory top road)

well I was only there once about a year ago and the floor was covered in dirt and a few chip bags, still though I tried it because of the reputation and the chips were not up to par, however after all the good reviews I might try it again. Boards trip anyone?

Nope, only not having eaten Lennoxs and not knowing about Pearl River gave it away, hope you don't mind me calling you Nursey

Why not? Just curious if our experiences are similar given that you are the only other person to give it a bad review

Not 100% sure but think it might be near the bottom of Barrack st, never eaten there though.... could be wrong on the location...

Panda Mama is the best chinese in Cork in my opinion!

Its down the same street as one of the entrances into clancy's. Im tellin ya. The place is addictive although they dont do delivery,but god its worth making the trek in.

I heard pandamamas is nice but i refuse to go there because of that bloody annoying ad on the radio for it.

I they're they're just average chips. not bad by any means but nothing special.
some of the Beschoff's or burdocks in Dublin would be far better consistently.

No way, there is something very special about their chips!

Papa_Lazarou · 12-01-2010 11:26PM

Whatever chipper that they have in the Boh's soccer ground is quality. Think they have a place by the river in the city centre aswell.
