A little different but loved it. Well sourced food with flair and friendly service. Good Irish beer selection too.

I had a meal at Sage in Midleton last night. it is tucked down a lovely old alley in Midleton. There was a table of 14 of us, and we were celebrating a 50th birthday. This is my opinion (although shared by others at the table). We chose from a set menu for €30 and there was a good choice. I chose beef skewer with Vietnamese salad as a starter. This was adequate, the beef was a little tough and dry, the salad was ok. This proved to the best dish of my three course meal. For my main meal I had tandoori chicken. The chicken was succulent and flavorsome, but the potato and veg were disappointing. Not something I would order again. For my dessert I asked for icecream as I didn't feel like anything too heavy. The icecream had frozen ice in the middle and seemed warm on the outside, needless to say i didn't eat it. I ordered an espresso coffee and to say the least it was astringent, seriously very very bad. The service was extremely slow, but there was a large table of us so maybe that is understandable! I had been looking forward to eating at Sage and I have to say the experience was disappointing.

had breakfast here a few weeks ago and went for the sage grill,it was fine,bacon was crispy to the point of burned and for 9.50 a little steep for a breakfast plate with no tomato or a potato dish of some sorts(home fries etc),then the peanut and chocolate cheesecake which came with ice cream which im 100% sure was pre-scooped on a spoon,restaurants do this to get ahead but with 3 chefs on and a kp it crys a bit lazy,ice cream was terrible by the way and the cheesecake tasted old and tasteless.service was really poor,asked for tea,then had to ask twice for milk!....got toast with breakfast,asked for butter and didn't get it till the end,also noticed what looked to be the guy in charge of the front of house not once look at the occupied tables or take interest in them,overall a let down,a pity

I have to say Sage is always a good pick in Midleton, always guaranteed great service with the girl that is there every night, the food is fab, I love their beetroot starter and the atmosphere is nice! It is a great location to the bars in Midleton too, it is on a bus line and near the train station too.

I go here for Sunday brunch all the time and it always feels like such a treat. I usually get the goats cheese fritatta and pesto and feta fries which are both heavenly. The selection of deserts is great and the service is very good. The only thing I would say is the chef is a bit too liberal with corriender which I can't stand!

We first visited "Sage" for an anniversary dinner in January and had a fantastic time. The food was delicious (particularly the pork stuffed with cumberland sausage) and the staff are lovely. Since our first trip there for dinner, we've been back twice for lunch and were recognised immediately by our waitress from the last night we had been in. As we were being seated at our table, near the open kitchen, both the chefs on duty greeted us and again, the food and service were exceptional. We returned today and had another excellent dining experience. Despite the restaurant being very busy, the staff greet you warmly on arrival and make sure you have a lovely meal. Highly recommended.

Yum. Had the early bird menu. My partner had pate to start which he enjoyed and I had prawns which were breaded in a coconut batter divine. I had the risotto for my main which was delicious and the prefect consistency which is hard to find. Only dissapointment was my partners main which was the pizza, topping was lovely but the base was far to crispy. Will definetly be returning soon though, hopefully for dinner. Over all one of the best meals I have eaten out and great value for money.

Went here for lunch with a friend on Sat and also about a month ago. Lunch menu is good value, staff are friendly and even though it is always busy when I have been in service has been great. Both occasions I have not been rushed out the door. Like the open kitchen design - food comes out in a timely fashion and is always hot. The only comment I might add that is a little negative is it can get very warm at lunch times. Cant wait to try the evening menu!

Absolutely outstanding. I first ventured on a cold day for afternoon tea. I got a warm friendly welcome and the most handsome desserts, even a wee tasting of a new flavour of to come, delicious. I had lunch on the next occasion, when I chose the blandly titled house salad. It was the nicest I have tasted anywhere. It was packed with nutrition, and the pomegranete seeds were a lovely touch. At 10 euro I would say it was under-priced! Bravo, I would gladly eat here everyday.

I love this place, gorgeous decor, great staff and excellent food. I've never been for lunch but have been for Sunday brunch and for dinner on numerous occasions. It's a great place to eat on Sunday, healthy fry ups and the best omlettes in Cork! Dinner is a bit expensive, the steak is €23.00 and at that is overpriced but the starters are wonderful, really good value and the desserts are out of this world.

Great addition to lunchtime options in Midleton, the pea and mint risotto is fab and a good and interesting childrens menu. My only quibble - drinks are too expensive

it was a simple soup, or as it turned out not so simple, I was overwhelmed with the taste and I found myself trying to guess the ingredients sure I got a few so I believed,it was a Veg soup but there was more going on.I really enjoyed the surroundings and it was nice to see happy staff.

If I were writing a review on the lunch menu alone I would easily give it four stars as it is varied, good value and decent ingredients are used. Decent lamb curry, good hake served with mash, interesting sandwiches(eg steak and blue cheese) and salads, as well as daily specials. Recently had very good roast tenderloin of pork with mash and grain mustard sauce for €12.50 which was a pleasant surprise. Dinner however was a disappointing experience. Starters consisted of crab cakes with a poor accompanying salad, a caesar salad which was lacking in dressing and decent calamari. Mains of sirloin steaks (€23+ for an 8oz)and pork tenderloin were disappointing as the meat had been overcooked and was dry - none had been ordered well done! Desserts were good - anything with chocolate is worth a try. The wine list is short with few decent bottles but is a little pricey for what is on offer.It is a shame that dinner did not live up to expectation but I will give it another try at a later date.
