Here's our plan for two delightful days of food, art, and history in Cork City: chrisplusmelissa.com/cork-city-ireland-two-delightful-days-of-food-art-and-history/ It includes an item or two that didn't make the video's cut.
The English Market has an area UPSTAIRs where you can go and eat. They have some good little restaurants. Its convenient.
I hope, when you guy fully settle down you come back to live full time in Cork.
You seem to love the place and we would only benefit to have you guys as neighbours
I’m living in cork and loved to watch your video❤
Awesome! Thank you! Cork is a neat city.
When are you going to move to Ireland permanently? I get the impression you love the place. From an Irish man living in the UK. If in Dublin again go to Dalkey. Lovely walk up dalkey hill and amazing views of wicklow and Dublin Bay. Dalkey is 25mins on the Dart from centre of Dublin.
That really is the longest red light in the city 🙈🤣 great video.
MY GRANMOTHER WAS ELIZABETH BELL, FROM CO CORK . SHE CAME TO ELLIS ISLAND AND BECAME A TAILOR OF CLOTHING . SOME OF HER FIRST JOBS WERE TO MAKE SUITS FOR THE BANKER S WIVES IN NEW YORK...WE WERE ALWAYS SO HAPPY TO VISIT HER HOME, SO WE COULD EAT BEAUTIFUL IRISH FOOD!!!I MISS HER SO! SHE MARRIED MY "COW " LOVIN GRANDFATHER!❤
Another great video guys!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
Great video, I think you should live here in Cork. Its a small city but its got everything you need, except the sunshine.
Don't know how I ended up here but im from cork and love the video 🥰🥰👍
We loved Cork / County Cork!
Thank you very much for this video! It is very interesting and informative. We are planning to travel to Ireland in summer, so the information in your video will be very helpful! 😊 And I have subscribed to your channel as well!
It's so funny, when you were at the end of the shaky bridge, the jail is only a few mins up hill walk from there - I was surprised you didn't visit then but I've been to the jail a few times and I prefer the audio tour with the sound effects so it was probably a blessing in disguise.
Thanks! Using this as a reference for my trip in a month
Thank you for visiting my home town and making such an informative video.. I loved it ❤️
We quite enjoyed Cork!
Hi guys. Just walk at a set pace across the Shaky Bridge and the closer to the centre you get the more you’ll notice the bridge move. 👍🏼. Up the Rebels.
God the weather gods were not kind too yee, Glad yee enjoyed My Town Cork!!
For the most part, the gods of weather have worked with us... it was just that last couple of hours. :P
@@chrisplusmelissa 👍 awesome
very pperfect channel.farewell!💫
Glad ye enjoyed our beautiful city
It's a delightful place.
"Feckers" is the absolutely correct response. When you come back to Ireland, check out the Carrick-a-reed rope bridge in the North. Also close to the Giants Causeway and Bushmills distillery. 😀
Got yee liked it! Gotta see west cork too!! Mind blowing seenary down there…… yes they call it the real capital 🎉
I stayed at the Clayton in May. Near the UCC campus is O Dhonnabhain (O Donovan) Street and Bridge. Full Irish breakfast was GREAT, but I could pass on the Black and White Pudding. I also found an O Donovan off license (liquor store). The Clayton is not far from the Gaol. It was a short walk, uphill.
There is a book written by an English man called Mccarthy's bar based on the "law" that you should never pass a bar with your name over the door. I hope you took advantage of this 😊
I'm irish from wicklow and Cork people are the most nicest people in Ireland
We think they are pretty nice too.
@@chrisplusmelissa I love both your attitudes
... pretty close to irish .... subbed
@@Irish780 Thank you! :)
Loved your video when were you visiting? I’m wondering how warm to pack for early October. You have on a heavy puffy coat and your partner just has on a hoodie. Thanks
Cork was amazing. And of course the tacos. Shake the bridge more too bad they didn't let you catch up to the guided tour
If that was a Sunday at the end of October, can I just say that that was INCREDIBLE rain...
Even by Irish standards
I do think it was. Good to know we were able to experience it. :D
It's great movie. Thanks from Ukraine.
Hi folks, I love your reactions to my native land. I'm getting to see the places that I,to my shame, have not visited before. Although I have been everywhere in Ireland, Cork holds a special place in my heart. My name is Finbarr,the patron Saint of Cork, who founded the city of Cork. The name is the English language version of the Irish name Fionnbarra, Fionn meaning fair or blonde and barr meaning top or head therefore the fair headed.
Finbarr is a super cool name. :) Thank you for sharing that with us.
Fantastic video absolutely loved it. Shaun O’Brien.
Glad you enjoyed it
Spike island is also worth a visit
Going to Ireland in another week, wondering about parking in Cork, seeing stuff about parking discs.....did you guys have any issues parking in Cork?
We are not parking experts in Cork but I can say the first time we tried to go to the English Market, there was a line into the parking garage that we wanted to go to. It was a bit overwhelming (being in a bigger Irish city, driving on the other side and being new to the city was a lot to handle) We actually decided to try on another day (during the week) and went early and it wasn't so bad parking in one of the ramps near the market. Not sure if that helps, but I get a feeling that if driving in a bigger city, in Europe, it's good to plan your parking before you get there.
When are you coming to sligo 😢
Hopefully some day. :)
What destinations do you recommend for a 3 -1/2 day visit to Ireland?
Are you flying in from the states? 3.5 days isn't much, and if you're flying in to Dublin, we'd recommend going to Kilkenny. It's less than 2 hours away and we loved it. But you can't go wrong with most any place we've done a video on. In our humble opinions. :)
Shakey Bridge has been renovated twice since the '80s and they took most of the 'shakiness' out of it :( Used to swing much more and was far noisier.
So they took some of the fun away?
As I live in Cork, I can't get over some things here:
What time have you been in Fitzgerald and UCC that you hadn't meet anybody? It is Cork, it is always crowded.
Rain. It is Ireland. It rains here, that's it.
Why did you take the car to the Gaol? It does not make sense at all, not in this bad traffic.
Aren't you a bit scared of the Gaol guards figures? These haunt me after a few years still...
I often visit Fitzgerald park around 9.30am and there may not be one other person in there.
Cork, may not be the capital city, but is the biggest county..
"Feckers!"I love it. That alone should entitle Melissa to an Irish passport, if she were so inclined.
She would take one for sure... you don't happen to have that power do you?! :D
@@chrisplusmelissa Unfortunately, I don't have that power. I'm just an average fecker.
@@darraghkelly1121 :D
Third largest city in all of Ireland, Belfast is much bigger. Cork is second largest in the Republic.
Acardia but Belfast has a lot of unions not a very happy lot
Was way shackyer
Kudos on editing around the dereliction. I'm from the place and I wish it well from the bottom of my heart but it's been allowed to become a dump by regressive and corrupt government policy.
Did you see any Corkonians whilst here as it is now predominantly foreigners here which has ruined our City. Not one bit like it used to be before the borders were thrown open by our traitors in Government. The character of the city was amazing when Cork people were in the majority. Anyhow, anyone planning to come here, enjoy the new Cork 2023 UN style.
I weep for what this city once was to what it is now .
Ignore these clowns🙄
@@corkboy4523 shut up or at least pluralise your insult .Bet you blew in
folks CORK is THIRD not SECOND biggest city in IRELAND.DUBLIN is biggest,then BELFAST.and CORK is no 3
Okay Karen!
They're referring to the Rep. of Ireland not all of Ireland
Cork town is where we store the hopeless cases. "It's de real capital beeeh" they grunt as they waddle round the town they have never left. The county is a different matter some of the best people in the world.
You would find a few Corkonians in that great metropolis Dublin....Minister of Finance, Minister of Foreign Affairs, Deputy Prime Minister etc
