The Universal in Galway

The atmosphere is nice, the cocktails are great. It's very warm inside but it's good.

Only been able to try the small sandwich menu during lockdown, but have absolutely loved all the options

Nice spicy Margaritas but they're extremely spicy. If you can't handle the heat, this will be too much for you, be warned 😅. Otherwise cool. Place nice outside seating would recommend

This the best bar we have visited in a long time. The staff and owner were very friendly. The tapas and cocktails were good.

Buzzy bar with great small-plate dishes. Fabulous. Small but perfectly formed. Key rule: always order the potatoes. After that, whether it's fish, meat or veg, you can't go wrong. My fourth time there and it's always excellent. No, it's not cheap, but, it is good value for the quality of food you get. Go there!

We LOVE The Universal! Delicious food to share friendly and skilled staff, a great bar, and fantastic music and lighting. Thank you xo.

We had 7 dishes between 4 of us. They were all perfectly cooked and delicous. From the lamb chops to the sole to the cabbage and the padron peppers, the crab,and the delicous desserts. Oh, and don't forget the cheese plate with each cheese being a great example of its style. Obviously great knowledge and passion for food. Great service. Nice casual atmosphere. Lovely draught craft beers. We look forward to returning.🍄 Ps. I loved the wild local chanterelles. In season.

Quant restaurant with superior service. Small plates that are just right as a main entree. All four of us loved our meal. Each plate had a tasty, unique twist to it.

This place is absolutely scrumptious. The baked aubergine is the winner dish, which comes as a surprise given what else is on offer. The service is fab. It has a relaxed yet welcoming vibe full of a range of customers (i.e. not aimed at a particular age bracket). I wish it were in London, I'd go back every week.

I am so glad I stopped into this place. Kind staff, amazing food and solid drinks!
