Things to do in Cork, Province of Munster: The Best Fun Activities & Games
Plan to cross many bridges when in Cork. Ireland's third-largest city began life as an island and now spans both banks of the River Lee, with watery channels running beneath some of its main thoroughfares. The best way to experience this hilly southern seaport is on foot, following the signposted walking tour past St. Finn Barre's Cathedral and the riverside quadrangle of University College up the hill to red and white Shandon Church. Along the way, you'll meet plenty of the city's talkative residents.

One of Cork's best nights out since 2010. With a whole host of professional comedians from the Irish comedy circuit performing every Saturday night, you're guaranteed an amazing night of entertainment. Located upstairs in The Roundy Bar, in the heart of Cork city, The CoCo Club is great value for money at only €10 entry & free pizza at the break.

Went to the open mic on Monday. Honestly, one of the best nights of comedy I have ever been to. The room is gorgeous with the candles and lighting and the comedians were all nothing short of hilarious. Some really great talent in Cork and I am so excited to go again for the professional show on Wednesday!! Cannot believe it’s a free entry, would highly recommend checking it out.

Cork's longest-running improvisation show. Every Tuesday at 9pm. We take suggestions from the audience and turn them instantly into fast-paced action. Surprising, inspiring and fun! The show lasts approximately 1 hour 15 minutes.

Gem of a spot. Great night out when packaged with the food offering in Holy Smoke next door. Our 3rd visit last night and enjoyed just as much as the other 2 visits. Mike is great craic and as MC keeps the laughs flowing between each comedian (4) I would definitely encourage someone looking for a different evening out give the wonkey donkey a try. As previously mentioned we have been 3 times in different dynamics i.e. couple , group of 10 and a group of 4 and each evening everybody left with that pain in the jaws from laughing and a satified palette from the grub 10/10

Was a good laugh well worth a visit. Great idea, as cork is really lacking any sort of comedy clubs.

My boyfriend and I went here during our trip to Cork and we had the most amazing time! We picked The Old Mine and it was mentally challenging while still being so fun :) The man who greeted us was so lovely and made us feel very welcome, would recommend this to everyone!

Went for the first date night since COVID and have to say it was a fantastic experience. We had the pleasure of being served by Ciara. I have never been in a restaurant or a bar where someone has been so attentive, friendly and accommodating like Ciara. She made the whole experience personable, yet safe. Upon arrival she greeted us with the friendliest manner and there wasn’t a moment where we were without service. She was able to recommend exactly what we wanted and still managed to have the craic. Ciaran her manager was absolutely outstanding also. I will definitely be returning to the Mardyke and recommending to friends and that is purely down to the outstandingly service we received from both Ciara and Ciaran. From a very happy customer :)
