The Kings Head in Galway

Great authentic pub with very nice food; excellent beer and live music every night. A don't miss here in Galway!

A must-see in Galway Guinness and live concert A wonderful evening

A trad historical Irish pub in Galway The beer was cold, fresh, and tasty. Oh ya the apps were great also.

Busy but always a good experience!

Amazing food and quick service. The irish stew was really nice.

It's a pub. Not suitable for small children. Gets extremely busy at lunch and continues that way all night.

Great upbeat trad music when we came. Patiently waited for a couple of seats to open up. Decent service. I think the bar was just overwhelmed with the number of people.

Lunch at The King’s Head is like eating inside a history book that smells of Guinness and grilled meat. Crab legs, bruschetta, ribs, oysters ...they all came out bold and unapologetic, like Galway itself. The seafood was briny perfection, the desserts sinful enough to make you stay longer. The place has centuries of stories soaked into its walls, and you can feel every one of them while you eat. Loud, a little chaotic, but that’s exactly the point.

Location: High Street off Shop Street Service: Laura was great and personable! Very helpful with drink selections. Really knows her stuff! Food: Delicious! I had the scallops and husband had monkfish. Atmosphere: Nice set up for a date night or a group outing. We sat at a high two-top. There was a long high table near us. Noticed some other tables that could accommodate larger parties. A nice seating arrangement mixture. We ended up returning later in the evening after the restaurant closed. Honestly, we wanted to visit one of the many popular pubs mentioned on different social platforms, but they were too packed. We heard music coming from here, so we decided to check it out. It wasn’t standing room only, and we found a small table for two! Music: While we were looking forward to listening to trad music, the duo that evening was great! They performed covers and were very entertaining, Everyone singing along made for a lively evening. They are very good musicians and singers (didn’t catch their names, but it was Easter Monday). Merch: We prefer buying souvenir tees from places we eat/visit/tour, and they had tees for sale so we bought two. The back says, “Irish ‘Pub of the Year’ 1651”. Would dine there again and go for late night music and a pint if fortunate enough to visit Galway again.

Comimos aquí después de buenas críticas. Gran ambiente en el pub mientras tomamos una copa en el bar esperando una mesa en el restaurante. Fue una noche ajetreada. Ambos teníamos ostras para empezar que eran preciosas. Para principal tuvimos estofado de carne y clase. Ambos eran abundantes y deliciosos. En general, una gran noche en un encantador pub. Lo recomendaría.
