Cork's Food Market - Fermoy

I went in here for breakfast when my flight was delayed last week. The woman working there was so rude to me! First she told me off for selecting a cardboard cup. Then she took it upon herself to remove my teabag while I was still making my tea. The tea was so weak I asked for another teabag. OK bad me, I took it without using the tongs provided but carefully so I only touched the teabag I was taking. She told me off, saying all the teabags were now touched and dirty. All this said rudely but with a big sarcastic smile. I felt persecuted, I abandoned my breakfast and said I think I’ll go somewhere else to which she replied “do”.

The profile for this place appears to be as confused as hell, the map makes out it is in the centre of Cork (and not the airport) and some of the photos appear to be from the English Market in Cork but anyway; here's my review. After having a very limited amount of time to spend in Cork, I found myself with the dismaying prospect of having to grab a rushed evening meal in the Airport. Like any other sane individual i would normally opt for a fast food chain restaurant as opposed to food from a non descript airport food hall but amazingly enough the food was fantastic if not predictably overpriced. I had a soup to start me off and 10 of my 5 vegetables a day in the stuffed butternut squash. Both exceeded all my expectations and set me up for the journey home. I'll be back for the Curry next time!

I ordered the chicken tikka salad and was highly disappointed. It was quite terrible, and I do not use that word lightly. The dish consisted of heated chicken slices smothered in a small amount of sauce, placed on top of the salad leaves. This resulted in a soggy and unappetizing salad that was difficult to eat.

Currently at the bar. Waited in line for a few minutes only to be informed that it would take one hour for the food to be ready. I have visited several airports in third world countries recently and I can confidently say that this bar has the worst service. It's disappointing because they have a good product, but it is poorly executed.

I ate here on a recently trip to the airport. The menu looks decent but the food is pretty average. I had the seafood chowder and it was pretty tasteless. I also had the parmesan aioli fries whicaioli were okay but way too much aioli. The staff couldn't have been less interested, standing around talking to each other and the food is over-priced for what you get. Will try somewhere else in the airport next time.
