Trieste Café & Wine Bar
Galway
28/05/2025: Hands down the nicest experience I’ve had in a restaurant for years. Food and wine were incredible and Barry was so lovely ✨ I would go here regularly if we lived local. Spotless and the quality of food is so high. Do not miss this place if your in Galway. It’s also so nice to support a local business owner using local produce 🇮🇪
25/05/2025: This was what we needed when we needed it.
Located on the edges of the Latin Quarter, this was the place we needed when we had enough of Quay street. It was quiet, it was quant, it had good wines, great cheeses, and tasty meats and very friendly service.
The weather was great so we took advantage of their outdoor seating and couldn't have asked for anything better than the evening we had.

Papa Rich
Galway
19/06/2025: The freshest, tastiest Asian Cuisine anywhere! Expect a long wait if you do not make reservations. It's such a taste treat. Do not miss it!
18/06/2025: I have been here several times now and the food has always been top class. Fresh ingredients bursting with flavour 👌🏼 I went for the Vietnamese Duck Salad and Chien Tom. Both were unbelievable.

The Dough Bros
Galway
21/06/2025: Absolutely top notch pizza. I was first in their original location and the quality is as good as ever. The staff are all really friendly people. The only slight complaint would be the music was tad loud for my taste. Overall one of the best pizzas in the country.
21/06/2025: You’ll end up waiting 20+ min if the line is out the door, but I’d say it is worth it. Their pizza is extremely good with a broad selection of options. We were a group of six and tried the Margherita, Caesar, Pesto, and American, all of which were delicious. Highly recommend the garlic crust dipping sauce as well.

Ard Bia at Nimmos
Galway
15/06/2025: Love this place. We got lucky and walked in for late lunch with little wait but it can get pretty busy. Dinner you almost have to have a reservation. The place has character. The drawers on the tables are full of notes from prior patrons. The food was so good. The french toast with peaches and mascarpone. The bread was so soft it almost melted in your mouth. The eggplant vegetarian dish was also quite good. The spiced beef was like korean kalbi-jjim with international twist, on a pita with leafy greans and other veggies. The kimchi pancakes were also delicious. Hot chocolate was pure chocolate but not too thick. Would love to go back.
14/06/2025: The food is something special, but the service is terrible. I don’t know why the staff thinks forcing people to know that they “have to be out by 8” when it’s 7 and they are trying to order dessert is supposed to accomplish, but it’s so poorly handled it’s pathetic.

30/05/2025: The PERFECT Irish pub. The owner Mike and his staff were incredibly friendly, the atmosphere was amazing and the music was great! If I were local I would be there almost every night...
29/05/2025: Very attentive owner, who shows off his offspring to their seats and brings beers to them.
Live music over the loudspeakers.
Wonderful

Crane Bar
Galway
18/06/2025: Absolutely superb live Irish music and Irish rebel songs. Music begins at 9.30 in the bar on the first floor and soon there is standing room only but not that anyone was complaining. A great experience.
16/06/2025: Everything a traditional pub should be. Friendly, comfy, lively and a really fantastic pint

Woozza Wood Fired Pizza
Galway
21/06/2025: Amazing, 100% recommend to anyone in the area. All of the waiters, waitresses, and the hostess are super pleasant, kind, and helpful. The food was sooo good. Genuinely one of the best meals I’ve had here, in terms of pizza/pasta/etc. Pasta was perfectly cooked and had super good flavor. Pizza was saucy, cheesy, and had plenty of toppings. If you’re considering eating here, this is your sign that you should.
19/06/2025: The pizza was great but the service was even better. The woman working entertained the kids in our group and they were so happy to be “helping”. Thanks for the great experience!

Murphy's
Galway
03/05/2025: Great pub, the waiters are very friendly, the atmosphere is great and the croques monsieurs are great for mopping up the Guinesses 😋. Plus we arrived late (8:30 p.m. 😁) and the kitchens worked overtime 😎. Pay attention to the time, otherwise you won't eat in Ireland anymore 😔.

La Collina
Galway
12/06/2025: Beautiful carbonara here, the chicken with roasted peppers pasta is also lovely. The special- ravioli stuffed with veal - was ok, a little to al dente for me compared to the other pastas.
11/06/2025: My favourite Italian in Galway. Authentic. Standards always 100% every time
