10/10/2026: We had a lovely evening! The food was delicious, fresh, and beautifully presented, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. The service was excellent, and the whole team was very kind and attentive. We’ll definitely be coming back! ❤️

21/09/2026: Atmosphere is like 7 out of 5 stars, what great vibes in here. Such an adorable little cafe with all kinds of delicious treats, and it's open in the evening for when you could use a night off from the pub scene to just sip a cozy tea amidst twinkling lights and soft music instead. We really loved this spot.

11/09/2026: It far exceeded my expectations!! Highly recommended!!

07/09/2026: I had a great experience at 56 Central in Galway! The staff were really nice, friendly, and managed everything very well, even during the busy times. The restaurant was quite busy with tourists, but the service was still well organised. The food was amazing overall. I had the Irish breakfast, and everything was delicious, although the bacon was a little overcooked for my taste. The burger, however, was absolutely amazing! If you’re visiting Galway, I definitely recommend stopping by 56 Central. It’s a busy and popular spot for tourists, and for good reason. A must-visit when you’re in Galway! 🇮🇪🍔

05/09/2026: Amazing Irish food, friendly staff and the best coffee #ourhappyplace The staff and ambiance is next to none A great place for coffee & treats or a great lunch with delicious wine!!

14/10/2026: Super friendly service and great food. Loved the sweet potato fries!

12/10/2026: A nice little burger place with very friendly staff. Unfortunately, the burgers were a bit too greasy in my opinion. Nevertheless, I'd gladly come back :)

22/08/2026: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Fantastic authentic asian street food in the heart of Woodquay Galway. Service is impeccable! They have a second branch inside @supermacs Eyre Square. That opens till late. Menu smaller but still same deliciousness . HIGHLY RECOMMEND

07/10/2026: Highly recommended. Amazing atmosphere, great people.

21/08/2026: I was sent here by O’Connell’s as I was searching for Ed Sheeran. He was not here either. As I had traveled so far, I had a few pints, perhaps more than a few and finally did see Ed. Actually 3 of him. It was the last thing I remember. So overall, an excellent pub. Will return once the authorities release me 5* Cheers 🍻

14/08/2026: Great place nice outdoor patio with great music

18/09/2026: This is a local gem of a bakery. The owner uses Irish oats and innovative in his baking providing scrumptious traditional scones and bread, and gf oat scones that are moist and delicious. The bakery is in honor of the owners mother who was a grand baker. You will get a great coffee or tea, a filling bite and be welcome by wonderful owner and staff.

18/09/2026: Best Baker & hot chocolates in Galway!!

29/08/2026: We had a chicken burger and the homemade curry. The chicken burger was good, the chicken in the curry was chewy. The atmosphere was very good!

29/09/2026: Smokey seitan was delicious and the staff were very friendly. Looking forward to going back to try other dishes.

26/09/2026: Amazing food, I loved the crumble and the soup. The server was treating us like if we killed her dog. We didn’t that wouldn’t be vegan.

22/08/2026: I heard many things about Murphy’s having come from Dublin, we tried the brown bread and butterscotch and both were genuinely lovely! But damn is it pricy (I don’t mind paying for high quality food) but my main issue was with the girl with the 1967 tattoo on the back of her arm GENUINELY the rudest customer service I’ve ever had! Everyone else was an absolute gem from the girl handing out the samples to the dude scooping the ice cream behind the counter.

18/08/2026: I give 4 stars for the staff who are very kind and try to serve you from the door.. the ice cream is nothing special, I don't understand why they say it's incredible.. anyone who has eaten gelato and knows, will distinguish... always our opinion of course...
