Pasta Factory in Galway

09/03/2026: The food was excellent and the atmosphere was ambiant, lovely soft lighting and beautifully laid-out. The service was a different story, however. My friends and I were thoroughly enjoying our meal when we were abruptly served our bill, while we were still eating our mains and well over an hour before close (people came in and sat down to eat after this incident occured). It very much felt like we were being hinted at to leave. However, since we had each bought a main and drink we decided to continue enjoying our food and wine (more than half of the bottle was still left). Not long after, a waitress came over looking for our payment at the table, while most of my friends' glasses were still more than half-full and little over an hour after we had sat down for what we thought would be a meal (I can't call it that as we weren't given the option to order desert, which we had wanted to do). If the previous action had been a hint, this felt like a warning that our time was up. Just to reiterate: this was still over an hour before close and some other customers had not even been served their food, so the kitchen was still operational as was the bar. Other customers who had been sitting down eating when we arrived were still there after we left. Looking around, it seemed we were the only table to be served the bill so abruptly, which felt uncalled for as we were polite all evening and caused no trouble. I will say that each of the waiters was polite and courteous, it felt like maybe they were pushed into urging us out the door by someone higher up since their manners didn't match their actions. Delicious food but I for one won't be back sadly as none of us felt welcome here.
