All this!! Great start!! I’d go with Three Fools Coffee tho! 
Train to Cobh and Spike Island... Cork City Womens Jail (previously mentioned) fantastic tour!
A walk along the marina is very nice if the weather is nice!
There are some walking tours of Cork as well you’ll find them all online.
There are some savage bars and pubs (now that they’re open again) to go to depending on what you’re looking for beer, food, cocktails, ect. |

Food ? Burger joint @sonofabuncork
Italian . @ristirante_Rossini
Asian : @kotocork
Coffee : @idahocafe
Mix of steak/burgers : @libertygrillcork
@elbowlanecork also for steak .
There's a playblue store owned by a member here just off patrick st on careys lane.
Brief encounters as suggested for a bit of fun and frolics.
Bars : Clancys recently refurbished upmarket with gorgeous rooftop. fantastic service.. run and owned by some great lads.
Franciscan well for the brewery experience.
Vicarstown for a couple of cosy pints. Others may suggest Tom Barrys but I think it's a shithole.
Breakfast : ali's kitchen in rory gallager place.
If you are on twitter follow @culinarycork for some great insight into the food experience in Cork.
That's just the city though and there is so much more.
If you have time get to Kinsale. What a beautiful town and the food is to die for !!
