U16 Six Nations International Hockey Series
Mardyke Sports Ground, UCC.
Fancy buying a t-shirt?
​
Keep an eye out for the specially produced t-shirts that were created to mark the tournament.
Eating near the Mardyke sports grounds:
For a quick snack and general groceries …. make the 5 minute journey to O’Reilly’s garage on the Carrigrohane Road at the base of the Cork County Hall.
​
Ramen at Dennehy’s cross is a favourite for college students where Asian street food is on the menu.
​
The Kingsley Hotel does some fine lunches and evening meals.
​
If on foot, you can always grab some to eat in any of the restaurants and café’s on the main UCC campus.
Evening Dining:
Going for lunch??? A key problem with answering this question is where to start… Cork has many fine places to eat and a bit of local knowledge goes a long way. Always ask a local as to where they go to eat and you won’t go wrong!!!
​
I’ll begin by keeping you away from the various franchises that are in every city as once you’ve been in one … you’ve been in them all! (I’ll also ignore the many fine bars who offer great lunches and evening meals since this website will also have many under-age readers ….(just to be politically correct!))
Lunch upstairs in the English Market is an enjoyable treat.
​
Nash’s of 19 Princes Street is a must-do for the visitor …. although it can be very busy!
​
The Tung Sing Chinese restaurant is a Cork icon.
​
Scoozi’s restaurant just off Academy street is one of the busiest in the city for all the right reasons!
​
For a local chipper …. Lennox’s of Barrack Street, KC’s in Douglas or any Dino’s are what could best be described as ‘Pure Cork’!!!
If you have a little more to spend on a good meal … consider the Electric on the South Mall.
