What's with the hype? Maybe the price of it? I ordered the vegetarian pitta and it was so greasy! 1/4 of the half pita was filled with greasy vegetables and the rest was chips with cheese. I can see why people get full of this. But the price is low because it's for half a pita! Great food for drinking but not something you must try. read more

See all

This place is my favourite take away spot in the country. It usually has queues forming out the door with good reason. People come for the creole but every thing on the menu is the berries. The curry sauce is the right consistency, just the right amount of thickness. Kansas city bbq, flying fish pittas, chimmichangas and Transilvânian burger are all worth a sample. It's a tight enough spot for room but there is plenty of interesting bits and bobs on the wall to keep you entertained and the music they play is always decent too. You wont hear ke$ha played in there. Top tip:kcs website has a dash cam so you can check the queues before you decide to head in. read more

KC & Son & Sons - Fast Food Near Me - Cork, Colorado

I have had KC's once in my life and never again. The chips smelled like fish and that completely put me off the place. I ordered something else as well i think some chicken nuggets and they were shockingly bad, My dog would not even eat them!!! Everyone says this is the best chipper ever but give me lennoxs' or starvation over this anytime read more

KCs is a tiny little red hut in the middle of Douglas with ginormous queues at lunchtime, serving a strange mix of Irish chipper and Mexican taco truck food. Hard to get to - had to sneaky park at the garage across the way. On offer: pitas done about 15 different ways, hamburgers, and other curiosities (...enchiladas!). I ordered the King Creole pita - it was delicious, full to the brim with cajun chicken, salad, cheese, sauce, and chips. The pita reminded me of a corn tortilla taco - it looked and tasted slightly fried. Nice touch anyway. Will be back next time I find myself hungry in Cork! read more

Chicken was a but spivey but it was worth it! Wish there was one in Dublin! Get in their early because the line is out the door! read more

KC & Son & Sons - Fast Food Near Me - Cork, Colorado

Best fast food in Cork - The long queue every night tells you more than any review. Well worth a try read more

Had the King Creole and the Chips with Cheese and Garlic Mayo. The King Creole was good but didn't blow me away, seemed like it was missing something like sauce. The Chips with Cheese and Garlic Mayo is the definition of great drunk food. So heavy but so good. Will definitely come back to try other things. Here's my rankings for the best "chippers" in Ireland: 1. Reel Dingle Fish (Dingle) 2. KC & Son & Sons (Cork) 3. Jackie Lennox's (Cork) 4. Leo Burdock's (Dublin) read more

Good fish & chip! Large portions so order some other things as well if you're in a big group!!! Excellent speed and customer service. Will be back for sure! read more

Having now tried the King Creole I am rewriting this meal- I consider KC's more of a walkthrough restaurant than an actual traditional chipper as the food is fairly high quality and not massively full of grease - no food comas here and no stomachaches either. That being said the food is good but not spectacular. I definitely got a sense eating it that 'this is nice, but I could make this just as well'- however if one has just been to the pub this is not the case. I also like that they are adventurous with their very large menu and keep adding new stuff, some of which works and some of which does not (milkshake... who messes up a milkshake...). Good service fast production. If you like 'burgers and chips' as a style of food this is a must-visit. If you consider burgers and chips to be something used for filling stomachs after post-drinking this is a possible option but not the only one in Douglas. read more

I can see (or, taste?) what that long queue is all about it (it does go by rather quickly though, they've got a good system going on). Quality food for a good price. Only thing I really didn't like was the amount of the mayo given (as someone else mentioned) but I think Irish people really like their mayo. No seating available, it's literally a take-away shop. read more

King Creole or Bombshell every time!! The pittas are unbelievable and well worth the wait! Don't be discouraged by the long line outside its worth every second of the wait! Go with a side of garlic chips and cheese at the end! A top class chipper read more

My first 5-star review - at KC's you get exactly what you are paying for! If you're looking for a top class chipper there no beating KC and Sons! The long lines you sometimes encounter are just a sign of the well deserved popularity of this spot. They truly have taking and filling orders down to a science. I am in Cork from the US monthly and feel it's an incomplete trip if I haven't worked in a stop for a Vampire! Even though I'm sure there are many customers in there much more often then me, I feel the counter staff already knows what I want. In from New Jersey- i also feel at home with the introduction of the Soprano! Also work around a lot of Irish expats back in the US and have found there is no better way to prove my Cork 'cred' then by introducing this landmark into the conversation! I now take two of my sons there- and it's mostly chicken nuggets and cheeseburgers- though my 12 year old is getting a but more adventurous and last went with the steak sandwich. I'm sure all of their tasty creations are just as top notch! read more

Now get this, I am not inclined to frequent chippers,tis rare that I'd bother with them, but I just love this little chipper, and so do a lot of other people. Every time I'm there it has queues out the door. I love their inventive food menu esp the pitta breads stuffed with salad peppers,pineapple and chips and oozing with mayo, and their vegetarian selection is yummy. Good food on the go, quick and very efficient service..you give your order when you go in and they queue it very swiftly..YUM big thumbs up for me. read more

As far as takeaway chippers go, this is my favorite ever. I'd murder a chicken creole right now! read more

This place is a top chipper that people must try when in the cork area. Try one of there wrapped pita's with a whole lot of goodness inside. This place is trully unique. read more

We were told that if you went to Cork, go to KC's, so we did. And we will not be recommending any future travellers to do the same. The food was decidedly average. Most joints have you put your order in and pay first, then wait for your food to be made, but at KC's you order when you enter the door and then wait for the queue to snake around prior to your paying, and I think this is to the detriment of their food quality. Everything we got was soggy and cold by the time we got to the counter and paid, which was about 20 minutes after I ordered. Queuing time was about 40 minutes total, since the line snaked out into the streets. It's great to support a longstanding Cork establishment, but I was left quite disappointed. Dino's wins this taste-test, hands down. read more

The queue was very long but I can see why! The menu is vast with so many different options, and those chips! Yum! We'd been told to check out the fish and chip shop with all the awards, and check it out we did. I got chips with garlic aioli (they don't skimp on the ailoi, trust me!) and the Bengal Bites which were super tasty! We also had an Atlantic Burger which was delish and two flying fish which were great. Not sure if I can say it's the best fish and chips I've ever tasted but they were certainly decent fish and chips and they don't FEEL super greasy which is a bonus. I'd get there early though, the line gets really long, and know what you want before you reach the counter because they move super fast. read more

Being Mexican and from Los Angeles I have to say KC's was my savior. I was getting homesick for the taco trucks, and KC's is a great little bite of America. At least, Los Angeles America. Incredible! The entire menu. The friend I was with ordered like 10 different things and we devoured them all. It's a mixture of southern cajun, like creoles, and latin food (they have chimichangas lol). read more

Lovely food, every now and again its a bit slodgy but usually its delicious

As I ventured back to my B&B and hunger had set in, I decided to partake of KC's fare since it was busy and that usually tells a tale. A curry chips later and I have to say that while they were nice, they weren't fantastic by any stretch of the imagination and a bit light on the curry. I'd go again but I woul;dn't go out of my way to go there. read more

This is probably the best chipper in cork city. The food is just amazing and very affordable. It is very cramped in the actual restaurant itself when ordering and waiting, but of course it's obviously with it read more

From Douglas originally, now living in West Limerick, called to K C s recently ,still the same layout but the food? Chips contained a lot of small overcooked bits and greasy, peas did not taste like the original mushy peas served years ago, tasted like canned ones, pies lacked flavour , very disappointed , read more

Nicest chips & curry in cork. Only issue is severe lack of plant based options if they had anything other than beans & peas I'd give it 5 star. More vegan options please! I'd happily wait in the long queues. read more

I was walking by the place on day one of our trip in Cork...line (called a "queue" in Ireland) was crazy long. I was confused and asked a woman, "What is this place?" The lady replied, "The best food!..its worth the wait." I was not going to wait, as I was hungry and didn't believe food was worth that wait. So the next day we come by looking for food and there was barely any line. We went in and ordered. My wife is a vegitarian and she found food she could eat. We walked out and ate in our car. I WISH THEY HAD SEATING SOMEWHERE. The food was AMAZING! I was shocked to be honest. Alot of Irish food is bland (No offense as I love Ireland)....but this food was amazing. Keep in mind I live in California and I have the opportunity to try ALOT of food. Only thing I didn't like was the Garlic Mayo Fries. WOW...TOO MUCH MAYO...like heart attack level mayo. We threw it away as we could not even get to the fries. But thats not their fault....we did not know thats how Irish people like their fries with garlic mayo. I wish I could go back there again, but it was two days before XMas and everything shut down. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT. If they had a patio area for seats or a bigger location for seating they would do even more business. Be warned though...a little greasy. Its not a healthy joint...but if you dont care dig in. I had the fish pita. read more

there is a constant queue out the door for a reason ! - check out the pittas , its definitely a different take on fast food. a very welcome one ! read more
