PJ Flaherty in Galway

I was in the area for a while, but last weekend was my first time in PJ’s—and the taste of the Guinness alone is enough to bring me back! The bar staff were absolutely amazing. The guy with the beard clearly knows his craft—you can tell he has real experience pulling pints. It’s not often you see that old-school style of bartending these days, with all the Gen Z influence. Very cool pub, very cool staff, and even better Guinness. Highly recommend!

I came to Wicklow for hiking and met a few locals who recommended visiting the west of Ireland if I had the chance. So, I decided to explore Connemara, with my first stop in Galway. I ended up at PJ’s Bar, and I’m so glad I did! The girl behind the bar was incredibly polite—such a warm welcome, something you don’t see every day. The pint of Guinness was absolutely delish, one of the best I’ve had. If you’re in Galway, I highly recommend this pub!

Amazing atmosphere! Cutest little beer garden area and fabulous staff! Jack, one of the bartenders couldn’t have been more helpful and kind when there for my sisters birthday.
