22/09/2025: A great place to meet and drink.

13/10/2025: The not so “hidden” gem - elegantly delicious | Great people.

11/10/2025: Went here for dinner earlier in the week and came back to review because it ended up being the best meal we had in Ireland! Can’t recommend enough!

10/10/2025: Yummy, homey, and great service. Book in advance. We entered really by mistake looking for dinner, and the place was full. I ordered number 19: steamed ink pasta with tomatoes and garlic. And it was 9/10. Service was kind.

09/10/2025: This is a top notch Italian restaurant, authentic dishes, freshly made and delicious. Excellent choice of Italian wines and beer as well.

30/09/2025: A fun evening with excellent live music. The atmosphere is so fun — we had a great time!

28/09/2025: Bar with a great atmosphere and musicians playing traditional Irish instrumental music. Every evening different bands and instruments.

17/09/2025: I loved this bar. The oysters were divine. I slurped them down and when one fell on the floor I still ate it! I can’t stop talking about this place to people on my outer circle. I would never recommend to friends and family though because I like to be on the “IN” and prefer for them to be on the “OUT”. This is a dynamic that works for all of us.

12/09/2025: We went to Ruibin for a date night and had a great experience. We ordered a couple of "tapas" dishes and shared 5 betweent the two of us.

21/10/2025: Came to have a pint and listen to tradition music but we're disappointed to find that the upstairs was full and it wasn't made clear online that the trad music was only certain times so we missed the show

17/09/2025: Great for some trad live music but have to get there early. Couldn’t even enter on Saturday but luckily got there early Sunday to get a spot.

05/10/2025: Amazing dining experience!! Highly recommended!!

05/10/2025: The booking process at Brasserie on the Corner was smooth and hassle-free. They were very prompt in replying when I asked to move our reservation to an earlier time ,great customer service from the start. We arrived a bit early and waited briefly, which was totally fine. A gentleman ( believe his name was Rory), kindly guided us to our table. Our server, Neil, was incredibly welcoming and accommodating throughout. I had mentioned in advance that it was my daughter’s birthday, and when I reminded Neil, he didn’t miss a beat. They gave her a lovely surprise, complete with the team singing Happy Birthday and presenting a dessert beautifully plated with “Happy Birthday” written on it. It truly made the moment extra special. Huge thanks to Neil and the team! The food was absolutely delicious. We skipped the starters as we had eaten earlier at a café, but the mains were superb, cooked perfectly and full of flavour. The ambience was spot on,cozy and relaxing. I had requested a quiet, private table, and they granted that perfectly. Everything from service to food to atmosphere was just top-notch. I’m genuinely super impressed with this restaurant. 😍👌 Highly recommended for special occasions or just a quality dining experience in Galway!

07/09/2025: I absolutely love this pub. Just back after two nights in Galway. I spent both evenings here. I had to get back since my last visit at Christmas 2023. Michael was his brilliant and usual welcoming self as was Fiona. They found time to chat as busy as they were with myself and my wife. If I could live there, this really would be my local. Thank you guys for making our visit so memorable. Much love from Paul and Heather.

05/09/2025: Great small pub with awesome live music.

10/10/2025: The gelato is quite good if you choose the whiskey or other liqueur flavors, as the others are bland and a bit washed out. They're nothing like Italian gelato, and considering that a small gelato with two tiny scoops costs €6.50.

07/10/2025: Called in on Saturday evening with friends and had a wonderful time. Pints were fresh and tasty. Service was brilliant. Smashing pub!

21/10/2025: We enjoyed the food and atmosphere.

21/10/2025: Highly recommended. A good pizza, a good salad, and plenty of everything. Five of us had three pizzas and two salads and took the rest home. Everything tasted delicious. Friendly staff, but parking is difficult on-site.
