The best restaurants

11/10/2025: We went for a late lunch and the food and atmosphere was amazing. If you like fish take the fish&chips even my gf who doesn’t eat fish liked it!

08/10/2025: Went to the bridge for food and drinks. The food was delicious, couldn’t fault it. No long wait either. All the staff here are so kind and welcoming. Those buffalo wings are 🤌🏻

23/08/2025: Quick stop for breakfast. Great staff, great breakfast!

22/08/2025: Had a lovely breakfast with family, great food and staff

11/10/2025: In the heart of this small Irish town, I found this beautiful place run by three young, very kind and delightful women. I ate very well, and the prices are much lower than in nearby towns. The selection of beers is as vast as ever, and the dishes are carefully prepared, plentiful, and delicious. It's worth stopping in for lunch or dinner.

01/10/2025: Excellent food and service, the barman was very friendly, the food so fresh and delicious and as a vegetarian I was delighted with my choices

29/09/2025: This place although busy really needs a refurb!

10/09/2025: The best Eton mess I’ve ever had!!!! It gets really loud in there though. It’s a busy spot but it’s worth going.

02/11/2025: Busy restaurant with excellent Janapese food. Great service and lovely busy atmosphere.

02/11/2025: Good atmosphere but really expensive, and for the menus sushis cannot be chosen, even if you don't like them. For 29.90€ I expect to at least choose what I want to eat.

15/10/2025: It's touted on social media as a must-do in Galway, but unfortunately, it doesn't live up to the hype. We had fish and chips with mushy peas. The fish was okay, but the chips and beans weren't tasty at all. It's not exactly cheap either; I'd go to another restaurant for THE meal in Galway.

14/10/2025: The worse and the most expensive fish and chips I had in my life. The fish wasn’t cooked thoroughly even though it was soaked in the butter coating grease. Immediately had the runs! Wouldn’t recommend not only for the food but overall not a good experience.

30/08/2025: Our favourite place for lunch! Food and service 10/10!

29/08/2025: Lovely spot in Rathfarnham, great food and good portions. The Lebanese mezze bowl is delicious. Staff very friendly also, would definitely recommend!

17/08/2025: ¡Te sientes como en Portugal! Si echas de menos casa o vacaciones o simplemente una prueba de la cocina mediterránea (como la cocina casera) experiencia muy pura. Una necesidad si estás en pollo (supera a Nando’s) selección más natural de pollo y menos añadir ons. Excelente pescado a la parrilla. Y sopa. Joya oculta que debo decir

09/08/2025: (Traducido por Google) Muy bien (Original) Muito bom

06/10/2025: Great, typically Irish pub with friendly people. Good live music. Next door is Lizzie's Restaurant, where you can also get good food. Definitely worth a visit.

16/09/2025: Visited today 16/9/25, Keith the bartender was amazing to talk to. Tunes were pumping with a great atmosphere. We highly recommend the seafood chowder.

04/08/2025: Stayed for one night bed, breakfast and dinner with my good friend. We had 2 single rooms, bed and pillows were so comfortable. Everything catered for in the room. Fabulous old world charming building, with its own orchard and garden growing herbs, vegetables, flowers etc. The food was amazing. Dinner menu had varied choices to suit and was presented so well. The homemade bread was fabulous. I had scallop for starter and Monkfish for mains and a rhubarb dessert. All delicious. My friend had a fish starter and rack of lamb. Potato and vegetable served on the side along with a cheese board. Food was fantastic. We really enjoyed our evening. The owner John Edward hands on approach is wonderful, a true professional 👏 and to all his team. There was a personal friendly feel. I would definitely go back there again. Great value for money. It would be a very special place for a small wedding, family get together, or friends gathering for a night or two. We bumped into old friends of mine who joined us in the drawing room for a great catch up. Added bonus to our lovely stay at The Mustard Seed. They accept blue book vouchers too.

20/07/2025: Had a fantastic two-night break this week at The Mustard Seed — a standout example of an independent, Irish-owned hotel that delivers genuine hospitality, exceptional food, and top-class facilities. Thank you John Edward & team ☺️

01/08/2025: Hands down the best full Irish breakfast around, nothing comes close, I would love to give 5 stars on that alone, But one Saturday we arrived at 11:45 and was told breakfast is finished, I’m a stickler for detail, so why advertise breakfast until 12? It should read “last orders for breakfast 11:30”, I ended up having to order from the afternoon menu, which was ok. if an establishment has a full Irish breakfast that good it should be an all day menu item..

06/07/2025: Went on a Saturday. Food was good and most of the staff were lovely. One staff member’s attitude let the experience down but Still, I’d recommend it overall.

05/10/2025: One of the best French toasts I ever had. Service is top notch!

20/09/2025: Dined there a little while ago waitress was friendly food ok the owner could do with brushing up on his people skills kept me waiting nearly 5 mins to pay while he was taking an order on the phone when I did pay he continued with his phone call no acknowledgement of my existence

28/09/2025: Had surf and turf....bit disappointed as there were only two prawns and they had their heads on. Also steak was a bit small

27/09/2025: Arina, at the bar, is amazing! She offered great suggestions and made great drinks!

24/10/2025: Linda was great and really helpful however the cappuccino wouldn’t melt steel so was deemed too cold.

24/10/2025: Perfect service ! Linda works so fast ! And very pleasant

14/08/2025: Best place by a mile in Gorey for food. Fine dining in a relaxed environment welldone to all involved.

23/05/2025: We had dinner here tonight for my husbands birthday. I have to say our meal, and our evening was sublime. The food was exceptional and the service was excellent. We really enjoyed our night. This is a restaurant that takes pride in the food it serves. We have eaten here on a number of occasions over the years from the time it was on The Avenue in Gorey, to now, on the Main Street. The quality and inventiveness of the dishes continues to impress. The menu is based on what is freshly available in season which makes for wonderful food. We cannot recommend The Bistro enough to anyone who loves good food.
