The best restaurants in Galway

19/09/2026: Good food, good attention, good price

10/09/2026: Full Irish breakfast is right on time coming from the US and being awake for 48 hours. Everything was great!

28/05/2026: Had a fabulous meal and a few pints of Guinness and it was perfection 🥰. It's definitely one to call into. Will be back.

26/05/2026: Great location and a very clean establishment. Service was amazing with the friendly staff. The only reasons I couldn’t give more stars is because the rooms are tiny and there’s no thermostat, making it very hard to sleep if you’re hot-natured. One of the workers was kind enough to bring us a fan, which made it more tolerable to sleep. Food in restaurant was delicious as well!!

18/08/2026: Nice environment, kind staff, and excellent food. Also it's authentic Italian food

13/08/2026: Authentic great Italian food pity about both the shocking, indifferent attitude of staff. No tip left.

08/06/2026: We stayed in room 455. It was allegedly a Deluxe King Room. It was nothing of the sort . For 256 a night it was the worst value ever encountered. 4 power sockets didn’t work . The tv didn’t work . The kettle didn’t work . The shower was poor . On check out the next day , the reception didn’t bother to even ask how was your stay . Lucky girl , she would have got both barrels. A shocking experience. The walk to the room was long and no sign to indicate where the lofts were.

01/06/2026: It is a bit far from Galway. You can get the 401&409 there. It has a great swimming pool and a gym. The breakfast was immaculate.

07/07/2026: Superb attention to client. Excellent food and very friendly service. We’d over 100 delegates eating here all week - nothing but compliments.

29/04/2026: Very good place for lunch at the University. Lot of people - pretty loud. Good atmosphere.

19/10/2025: Lovely old style pub which I visited when I was home on holiday. I brought my mother there as this was the pub my father used to drink in years ago.

28/09/2025: Great pub, hyped for the Guinness and rightfully so, full of proper friendly locals, highly recommended.

03/07/2026: Me and my partner waited so long to come in here and try the food , service was abit slow but when I got the food I was so happy as it was also my Birthday celebration. I'm so disappointed as I have had to work a 9 to 6 shift the next say with constant diarrhea and throwing up to the point infection was the only thing coming from my stomach. I never write reviews but I am very disappointed and will not come here again.

02/07/2026: Service was lovely. Food not so much. Music a bit loud for a late afternoon..

05/08/2026: The best coffee I've had in Galway. The toasties were super fresh and tasty as well!

19/07/2026: A lovely spot for a relaxing coffee. Great location with a beautiful sea view, especially on a sunny day. I had a coffee and a fresh croissant, sat outside and just enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere. Friendly service, good coffee, and the perfect place to slow down for a while. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area. ☕️🌊

06/09/2026: Delicious pancakes, friendly and very good staff

20/08/2026: There were four of us. The Indian waiter was the picture of calm. The portion size and the taste were very good. Not exactly cheap. Definitely worth it if you don't always want to be in the old town.

15/09/2026: Absolutely a wonderful experience! The food is delicious and the service is the BEST we've had so far in Ireland. They didn't have berries for the yogurt so they offered extra granola or honey, which was totally fine. But then later they brought some berries out, saying they went out and got some! Incredible service and so thoughtful. Come to Cafe Roscoe's - you will not be disappointed!

27/08/2026: Overall disappointing experience as soon as I walked in I could already tell this was gonna be a hand full of trouble. We sat down ordered the waiter was so awkward i was shaking with discomfort. Then the day only got worse my chicken & bacon panini was place on my table only to find mayo was pouring out the sides (Shame)then the were onions and tomatoes which I did not order and worse of all the onion were out of date(tragic) I sent them back up and the lady was very rude and when I got my plain panini back it was still wrong it was like eating a bean boozled…where I been the boozled. our drinks were also forgotten nowhere to be seen in-fact it was like a blind forgetting his cane….it shouldn’t happen .when she finally got them I was greeted by a wave of awkwardness that makes you want to crawl into my underwear..and stay there. Overall bad experience we ran out of there as quick as the gingerbread man and never to return……!

25/08/2026: Great Chinese food. Staff was very friendly and we were able to talk the owners in Cantonese. Food tasted just like what my parents would cook back at home. This was the only place my 2 year old would eat at.

13/08/2026: I love the Chao mein here and the chillies squid.

18/08/2026: Under 10£ for 2 coffees and a tart. Everything tasted great, service was fast, and everyone was friendly.

25/06/2026: I ordered salmon&spinach quiche and it was the best food I had in Galway. Delicious and balanced, thank you!

30/08/2026: Great service! Yummy Lemon muffin (SO yummy!) Cute, comfy space! Thank you, gals!
