Izz Cafe

Already famous for the excellent Palestinian fare that they had been selling at the Douglas and Mahon Point Farmers’ market, Izz Alkarajeh and his wife Eman had a loyal following in tow when Izz Cafe opened on Georges Quay early in 2019. This friendly and authentic café has proved a great addition to the cultural options in Cork city - only a short walk from South Mall and Oliver Plunkett Street, it’s well worth seeking out
Open Tue-Wed 10am-8pm, Thu-Sat 10am-9pm. A la carte. Wines from c.€30. Toilets wheelchair accessible. Children welcome. Major cards. abbreviations
Georgina Campbell

Former refugees Izz and Eman Alkarajeh take pride in serving the most authentic and delicious Palestinian fare possible - and, since opening in 2019, their delightful Izz Café overlooking the River Lee has become a Cork staple.


Ever-innovative, they’ve introduced a delicious brunch fatayer menu, featuring the popular Levantine pie, and they’ve also added Magloubeh to their offerings – famously made by flipping the cooking pot upside down, the unique presentation of this fragrant rice and vegetable dish is always exciting.


From hummus and baba ghanoush to pillowy manaeesh flatbreads and home roasted traditional coffee you are in for a special treat at this charming café-restaurant.


Just a short walk from South Mall and Oliver Plunkett Street, it’s well worth seeking out.
