Tigh Neachtain in Galway

I first visited years ago when a local shop owner recommended it to me after seeing my surname. The food and drink here are great! You can have a light offering if you’re here right when they open. (The shop owner was from “Galway Bay Gifts” which is now closed sadly). Nevertheless, I’m glad of him for his recommendations not only here but even having taking my mother and I under his wing a bit. Tigh Neachtain’s is a lovely and iconic spot in Galway. I visit every chance I can.

Can't bate it, fine pint of stout, good roaring fire and legends behind the bar.

Our local so don't want too many new people crowding it out. Best (proper) pub in Galway city.

Lovely pub. Very well decorated. Popular. Nice cozy spots inside. Good pint selections. Great.

Best toasties in Ireland! Chowder and soup also excellent.

Felt like a local! Eating real Irish food with the best ambiance! Go here! The Irish Coffee was particularly delightful! The downstairs had some fantastic pockets and snugs and the upstairs was great to eat with a group!

Such beautiful place to visit and easy to talk with friends or doing your own things in the corner because they have a small corners really cute also guinness was good and IPA they have is tasty too if you like IPA. Service us good too.

We were staying in a hotel nearby and the service was always top rate with great drink selection. While on vacation in Manchester we met a girl who was from Galway and she told us if we visited we had to order the Clam Chowder. It was top notch, and one of the best meals we had while in Galway. Thank you!

This is an absolutely great pub found right in the heart of Galway's Latin square. While right on the beaten path, unlike so many of the shops and eateries along there, Tich Neachtain still remains to have a quaint charm. The establishment was actually recommended to me in the most of Irish of Irish ways...by a friendly stranger in a pub several towns away. The clam chowder and the bread were perfectly delicious. Out server was incredible in his care and recommendations. It remains one of highlights of an already wonderful trip to Ireland.
