John Keogh's in Galway

Staff were so nice to us and 6kids. Really welcoming

Chicken was cold in the centre which makes me think it’s not freshly cooked and just reheated. I had to send it back to the kitchen but to be fair to the server she offered to have it remade. Also it was strange that their was no prices on the menu.

Great fish and chips, great staff,

Excellent place. We loved the pub atmosphere because the noise level remained reasonable, unlike many other places. The servers were pleasant and efficient. The food was truly excellent. Special mention for the lamb and the mussels in cream sauce. Very generous portions. We enjoyed it so much that we went back the next day.

Had a beautiful steak for dinner, food was excellent, service was brilliant and very friendly. Really good atmosphere here also

Good food but very very slow coming out of the kitchen. Things happen but one would hope the server (Kayla) could at least apologize for the delay and do a table check back. But no. Not even a thank you at check delivery. Won’t return.

We asked the server if the lamb shoulder was gluten free, and we were assured that it was. The paper menu also had the "GF" symbol on it. Unfortunately, my friend had a very bad reaction after eating it, and pinpointed the likely culprit containing flour was the heavy gravy served on top of the lamb.

I arrived at the pub with very high expectations, given that it has been among the most awarded in the city in recent years, but it still managed to surprise me. The quality of the local ingredients and the execution of the dishes are far superior to the average for traditional pubs: the shoulder of lamb, slow-cooked for six hours with a red wine reduction, and the Connemara oysters are exceptional. The place is welcoming, and the staff is friendly and helpful. Without a doubt, one of the best meals I had during my trip to Ireland.

Escape from the hustle and bustle of the touristed area of Quay St/Latin Quarter over the river to the WestEnd. Take a short walk to a fabulous meal at John Keogh’s gastropub — delicious food, comfortable interior, very attentive wait crew — Rachel is the BEST! We went back a second night knowing we’d be well fed and cared for!

Very friendly service, perfect food, good drinks. Worth a visit!
