Moran's Oyster Cottage
14/10/2025: A must visit for all seafood enthusiasts.
12/10/2025: This was probably our favorite place to eat at on our entire trip. It's a small business. the menus are beautiful and simple. It was incredibly clean. Very well organized. The staff were all beautiful. The oysters were amazing. We didn't love the potato cakes so I wouldn't get that again. The sweetest relaxed little place. Loved it! Highly recommend.

Athenry
26/09/2025: Went for breakfast.full Irish was top notch
25/09/2025: Just got into town Galway. Our hotel is 30 minutes outside Galway. So we decided to walk through Athenry. A lot of ancient medieval walls and buildings. Quite fascinating!
We went to The Old Barracks for an appetizer and a Guinness.
We picked a great place. Casual and very friendly. Food apps were great.
Fun start to our two days in Galway.

01/07/2025: 2yrs ago I visited Weavers and had scone&coffee and as I had eaten dinner there 3 times in few months and wasn't impressed, I decided never again.... So two years later...On end june 2025, myself and a friend called in for dinner and the place looked lovely and more cosy, the staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful as they always are and the food was delicious. I had beef stroganoff with rice&chips and my friend had beef with gravy, chips&salad. (Chips here are moreish) Both dinners were Yum! We then ordered chocolate cake,icecream,cream and tiramisu,icecream,cream and coffee. Both again were delicious. Really delighted that Weavers have upped their game and I will be meeting more friends there soon.

Glynn's Bar
Oranmore
01/10/2025: This place was recommended by the receptionist at the hotel we were staying in. I wanted a nice pizza and I wasn't disappointed. We shared a half and half pizza and few drinks. The place was very busy but there's so many lovely wee nooks and places to sit so it was no issues finding a seat. From the outside it looks deceiving on the inside it s so much bigger. Friendly fast service, great food and well priced. Definitely worth a visit.
20/09/2025: Class spot to go for a few drinks.
Amazing pizza and great live music.
Highly recommend

23/09/2025: Beautiful, small Cafe and friendly people. The coffee here tasted great. Triple cheese toasties were already pre-made, but delicious. Free tap water. Nice art gallery.

Mitchell's Cafe, menu
05/10/2025: We have a lovely afternoon at Kylemore Abbey. The grounds are impeccable and the history is so interesting on such a lovely place. The furnishings of the home are lovely and it is a very walkable site. Everywhere you look is a learning opportunity, even as far as the type of tree that you are looking at. Beautiful spot and a must see for those visiting Ireland.
05/10/2025: Very nice place, great facility.

Abbeyglen Castle Hotel
Clifden
19/09/2025: Wish we could have stayed longer. It was so charming, restful, and had everything we needed. Even though outside was sideways raining, it was perfectly cozy and welcoming inside! Note that it's very close to town,a short walk or drive, its right on Sky Road for easy access. The owner comes out at 630p and serves prosecco and gives an oral history of the place while a pianist plays. Really special.
22/08/2025: We had the best time at this castle. We only stayed a night as we were just passing through and it was a true highlight of the trip. The service was incredible, especially the lovely bartenders. Food was very good, room was comfortable and welcome night was so fun!
