Cork Guided Food Tour with Tastings & Irish Whiskey

Begin your morning in a family-run pub that has poured pints for two hundred years. Settle in with a traditional toasted sandwich made with local ingredients and a cup of Cork tea.Next, head to the English Market, one of Europe's oldest covered markets, trading on this site since the 18th century. Taste award-winning Irish cheeses with the people who sell them, then stop at an award-winning fishmonger for a platter of seafood fresh in from the local harbors.Your guide then leads you through the lanes of the Huguenot Quarter, first settled by refugees who fled France in the 1680s, and past fragments of the 13th-century city walls. Afterwards, warm up in a Cork institution with a bowl of traditional seafood chowder, home-baked bread and butter, and a glass of local stout.Step inside Cork's only chocolate factory to see how its chocolate is made, and taste the result in a locally made hot chocolate. Your final stop sits across the River Lee on a site with roots in the 1300s, where you'll raise a glass of Irish whiskey finished in casks from the very building you're standing in.Somewhere along the route, Secret Food Tours saves one surprise for you: our Secret Dish. We won't say what it is or where it appears, only that every Corkonian would approve.
