The Secret Garden in Galway

Been coming here yearly since 2021 and it’s always a pleasure. Very cozy place with a wide array of pastries and coffee/tea beverages. Anything you want really. Despite what some reviewers have said, the staff here is friendly. They may come across as rude to some, but let’s understand that they are serving the public for over 10 hrs a day. It takes a toll on anyone and there is only so much energy you can put out there as a service industry worker. They were all cordial and I had no issues with that. I was fortunate to sit next to the cafe cat that frequented the place since its inception. The most chill cat that ever lived. Unfortunately she passed last fall, but lived a good life! I’m happy she had a peaceful environment around here till she moved on. That being said, I highly recommend this place for a nice morning start.

Really lovely atmosphere. My spot on as I was wandering in the neighborhood. They really have a secret garden in the back of the store. The drink was okay but the staffs were very nice.

I’ve visited twice during my 2 days trip. I expected to meet the cat but sadly he went to the cat planet last Autumn. They have a cozy indoor and a lovely garden. Mostly they don’t have seats inside, I’d recommend here to a small group with tea people. You can find various tea selections and loads of cakes and pastries as well. Staffs are so kind. I took milk woo long tea and London fog, a warm rhubarb crumble with fresh cream. I’d recommend everything I had.

Loose leaf tea paradise. Great as presents. I also had the bounty and peanut butter energy ball which were both great. Really cosy Cafe.

The indoor area has some tables and also floor seating. Outside backyard patio has a bunch of tables and partial covered roof. There's blankets for use as well. We devoured the rhubarb crumb cake which they warmed for us before serving. The affogato was delicious as well. The tea is served in cute mugs. We enjoyed the cozy afternoon tea here to relax.

Best dirty chai and butter croissant I’ve ever had. Thank you!

Very aesthetic place to have a tea or a coffee, also the cups are very pretty and it is quite well priced

Such a great place to sit and relax
