20/06/2025: Good afternoon, Last Saturday we made our first visit to this restaurant since 2017, prior to which we had hosted many of our family’s special occasions and often stayed overnight. Every one of those occasions was impeccable and we have many happy memories of birthdays and anniversaries celebrated there.....and sad memories too of after funeral refreshments for both my wife's parents. I brought my daughter for what was intended to be a special outing for her as she seldom goes out anywhere due to serious health issues. We had chicken wings which were excellent but after that everything went downhill rapidly. My daughter chose a pasta dish but she could only eat half as it was at best mediocre. I chose roast beef and stated categorically that I did not want gravy poured over my meal and I asked could the gravy be served in a small bowl on the side. The young girl was very pleasant and helpful; she understood my request and said yes, that’s fine, absolutely no problem. We didn’t see her again after that. When another person brought the meal to the table it was absolutely swimming in gravy. I said I had requested the meal to be served without gravy, with the gravy to be served on the side. He took it away and changed it. It really appeared that I was served the dregs remaining from lunchtime and although it was towards late afternoon, that is not an excuse for me receiving stale carrots and mashed potatoes that had very obviously been kept warm in a Bain-Marie for a number of hours. The cabbage apparently had all gone so I got none. The beef was not remotely succulent and was as tough as leather but I persevered in struggling through it until a fly (there were many flies in the area where we’d been seated) came and sat on the beef. At that point I gave up and went to get some tissues to wrap the beef up to bring home to our cat. I was totally put off. As a result we decided to skip dessert. One would have expected the restaurant to have take steps in the warm weather to deal with the problem of flies in a dining area. The only part of the main course that I was able to enjoy was the roast potatoes which I have to say were excellent but overall the experience was a very disappointing one. What made it even more disappointing was the fact that at no stage during the meal did anyone come over, as is usual practice, to ask if everything is ok. And when I was paying, I wasn't asked then either. Had I been asked I would have outlined all these difficulties. Sent from Outlook for iOS

06/07/2026: Great food and very yummy pizza. I got a really good margharita there for 10€. Very tasty!

14/02/2026: Could be the worst food I've eaten in Galway, got it after a night out last night and I've been getting sick all morning, definitely something off or raw in there. Avoid it!

07/03/2025: Pedido hace más de 90 minutos y la comida no ha aparecido y sus líneas telefónicas ya no funcionan. No es la primera vez que hay problemas. Tuvimos que esperar casi 2 horas en el pasado, ya que "perdieron" nuestro pedido, pero al menos entonces pudimos llamar y comprobar. Absolutamente horrenda atención al cliente. Realmente no se les debería permitir recibir órdenes cuando no hay forma de contactarlos.

04/03/2025: Siempre fabuloso aquí. Suelo pedir vegetariana o samosas y todo está muy bien cocinado fresco y servido con gran amabilidad! Muy recomendable.

19/03/2026: I thought the take away was nice. Its the most underrated place for a sit down dinner. Outstanding

15/03/2026: Ordered here for the first time and was met with nothing but disappointment l. Food was late but I’d forgive that as I knew it was a busy day but when I got my food it was disgraceful, chicken balls were practically wet with how soggy they were, chips were half mushed and stuck together, curry sauce was so thick I had to use a spoon to even get some out and the duck rolls which unfortunately are the only things I have photos were not only tiny but actually burnt to a crisp was also cold and had to be binned extremely disappointing I’d avoid !!

29/11/2025: Maybe it's the previously empty stomach talking, but those were the best chicken balls with sweet and sour sauce I've ever eaten.

10/06/2024: Small portion sizes for me, but overall, the food is inexpensive and good. I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a nice breakfast/luch place

10/07/2025: We stopped at this lovely spot on our little road trip around the Atlantic way, it was a brilliant find. It looked so interesting from outside. The purple building with the craft stall, and sign with frieda kahla. We had two dogs with us and we were allowed to sit outside with them. We were welcomed by the lovely owner, who promptly told us there were fresh scones out of the oven and she had made apple and plum cake fresh that day. We were surprised the menu was vegetarian, but it was not a problem. The food was absolutely delicious!! I got the cheese and onion panini and it had mustard and relish and was so delicious. The cake was phenomenal! I also had a mocha. And it was the best I’d had this whole week! The stall out the front sells the owners crafts, there is lovely adult and children’s clothes. I got a dress for my niece and an apron for myself. I can’t wait to go back on our yearly visit to Downings!

05/07/2025: Lovely place for a break, all home cooked, fresh food, great selection of food and a very helpful and friendly service.

11/08/2025: I was there Sunday the 10th of August at 8.43am and the gentleman who served me, known as Lee Whelton was a brilliant worker, knows the running of the place and was so very helpful he was a star ⭐️!!

08/08/2025: Great food the two small guys think there names are lee and andrew are running the place

11/02/2026: Chicken Tikka Masala was way too sweet. I could barely eat it. Extremely disappointed. At least the rice was good.

01/09/2024: Excelente comida, un entorno encantador, un gran personal experimentado y conocedor haciendo de la cena aquí una experiencia fabulosa.
