Hotel Meyrick Galway in Galway

06/07/2025: Incredible food, great service! Ate the cold crab on bread, charred cabbage (one of the highlights for sure) and the John Dory (made to perfection, simple but full of flavor). They also have a solid selection of natural wines and beers, and a pro cocktail maker at the bar ;)

20/05/2025: The starter was rather unremarkable. The soda bread served with the crab claw became especially dry after being pan-fried. The pairing of red cabbage with chilli oil didn’t work—the dish lacked a strong foundational flavour, and the addition of peanut chilli oil only heightened the bitterness of the cabbage, resulting in a muddled and incoherent taste. The main course, however, was a pleasant surprise. The steak, in particular, was rich, juicy, and full of flavour—I would return just for that dish. The lamb was exceptionally tender with a lovely hint of char from the grill. As always, the dessert was consistently excellent.
