    The County Cork does not disappoint. Throughout the years, I have enjoyed the various cocktails, wines and delicious foods prepared in a small, cozy setting. I also enjoy the specials offered on various evenings. The menu is creative and delicious, with certain standard items remaining on the menu and interesting new offerings available. The wait staff is personable, accommodating and efficient. The only detractor is the noise level. When full, it becomes hard to hear the company you are with.

    Always excited to dine at this venue. Every year my wife and I schedule our Valentine's Day dinner here. Occasionally, we go, just because. The food is amazing. Try the dry rubbed ribeye, my favorite. Staff is always courteous and engaging. Small town feel. Music was available. Overall, a terrific time. Thank you.
    The County Cork Wine PubResponded on 21 February 2025
    Thanks Greg for the 5 stars and awesome review. So glad you've been celebrating Valentine's with us for years! It was an extremely busy night so always happy to hear you enjoyed everything from food to service to ambiance! Looking forward to your return visit whenever you can get here.

    Always enjoy dinner at The County Cork! The Valentine's Day special menu had several great items; I thoroughly enjoyed the Smoked Beef Spare Ribs entree. My Gin Martini was crisp and dry, just about right; Creme Brulé for desert with delicious caramelized sugar crunchy top! Highly recommend to folks in and around Sykesville/Eldersburg, or anyone visiting from out of town!
    The County Cork Wine PubResponded on 21 February 2025

    Great food, music and service. Had to wait 35 mins for our table though WITH a reservation so they need to manage that better. Felt that they could have comped a drink or app for that but no real acknowledgement of that. So they need to manage reservations better. Otherwise hostess dinner best and food was great. We will be back.
    The County Cork Wine PubResponded on 21 February 2025
    Hi Dana and thanks for taking the time to write about your experience. We appreciate the 4 stars and positive comments but very much apologize for the long wait you had and like you said, with a reservation. We always try and get our reservations sat within 10 minutes, any longer is not ok. For this I do apologize again and we should have done something for the long wait. Sometimes when it's busy the server or hostess doesn't always notify the manager or owner, so please don't hesitate to ask to speak with someone should this ever occur again. It would have been our pleasure to at minimum acknowledge the situation. Appreciate your letting us know and hope you will be back again soon.

    Hi Shawn, Thanks for the 5 stars across the board. It's always nice when Chef Gordon talks to the customers he enjoys getting feedback and getting to know the locals. I'll be sure to pass your comments on to Jen. Hope you can come back soon for another 5 star experience.
