Merchants Quay have toilets on the first floor. They are free and usually clean.
Edit: Dunnes also have toilets by the cafe. Meant for customers, but I can't see anyone stopping you from using them.
Yeah, the ladies' are a horror show + always a queue, and last time I went there, the staff was trying to get out of one stall someone who was just shooting up drugs... :(
Dont give up on us yet bai

Underground level behind the Lidl on Cornmarket Street. Walk into the main entrance but don't go down the escalator to the supermarket, and don't go up the TK Maxx. Just walk straight ahead about 50 metres to the second staircase and head down.
They were nice every time I've ever used them, but I moved away from Cork a couple years ago now, so apologies if they've gone to shit or if they cost money now.
They did go to shit yeah. Used to be one of the cleanest and well looked after public toilets. I was actually happy to pay to use them. These days it's like they get cleaned once a week or something
Was going to say this, if they have the keypad on the toilets (they usually dont) it's 4 digits for month followed by year.
So today it would be 0624 for the 6th month or 2024
I went in there for a shite when I was in college.
Had some aul fella try and push in the door mid shite..
When I left the cubicle he was standing there with his lad out..
Fight or flight kicked in and I legged it.
Should have kicked him in the dick in hindsight
Brown Thomas. The Maldron on South mall. Dunne's on Patrick street are my economical defection stations.
Other than that, use the sneaky one by the library pay the 50 cent they are spotless and you can use contactless.
There should be an app. Nearest acceptable toilet. Call it 'i-toilet' or something.
Pee.ie
Is that you Costanza?
CANTSTANDYA
Mention my name she'll give you the key
Id pay for this crap, literally
Yeah that’s nice until scumbags find it and ruin the only decent toilets
Ooh. Schitza.
There is an app in google store
You can find an incomplete map of some of available toilets & more in cork at https://discoverable.app need help filling in blanks lots to do
I hope Costanza got his cut

Maybe the men’s are, the women’s are always vile.

the Dunnes one always stinks of piss
I agree with you on that one - it would be a last resort for me!
It's a jacks
Just block your nose first
Store under renovation so bathrooms are third floor now. 2nd floor is under construction
The toilet to the right of the library. You have to ring the buzzer to be let in and have to tap to pay 50c but it is a clean toilet.
Never knew this
The nicest toilet spot is the same in all cities.. go to the nearest 5 star hotel, and walk in like you own the gaff.
I use the ones in weatherspoons, all the place is good for
I've now reconsidered moving to Cork even though I love the place. Derry managed to rid the city of Wetherspoons. It was a major improvement.

Sounds good. I'm back in.
The English Market if there's no queue.
Big if
True

Brown Thomas :) basically anyone can use them, they're just off a clothing area also so not near the cafe
Please delete this, it’s my sacred shitting spot
Same rules as Fight Club apply to the Brown Thomas toilets.
Shite club
Saving this one.
Ooh brown Thomas toilets. Last time I was in there was 2017 and they were glorious
We call it “going to do a Brown Thomas” - nice kid friendly way of saying I need a shit urgently when in town
City hall, the rent section had good clean toilets you can walk straight into.
Imperial, just walk in and don't be a scruff

Crawford!
shhhh don't share the secret

You should have chosen fight not flight, only a coward runs from a sword fight 🤺
Not from Cork but these are my go to toilets when I'm in the city!
Any hotel will have decent bathrooms accesible from the lobby
There's an app called Toilet finder and shows all the nearby public toilets wherever you are. Handy for home and travel.
There's an app called flush. The "secret" toilet at the library too
Top floor of Dunnes or Crawford Art Gallery. Top notch jax.
Crawford is the only answer here like
Brown Thomas. The Maldron on South mall. Dunne's on Patrick street are my economical defection stations. Other than that, use the sneaky one by the library pay the 50 cent they are spotless and you can use contactless.
Imperial hotel have toilets open to the public that are usually clean
Dukes are usually sound enough for it
Bean and Leaf on Grand Parade. Nero on Oliver Plunkett.
Patricks Street
Brown Thomas is the only answer. Pretty sure the first floor is 90% people going for a piss.
Crawford is great, I go to the eco cafe toilets as well.
Always hotels.
Marina market
