The best restaurants in Galway

06/09/2025: My most favourite spot in galway ❤️ They have the best menu 🎉 My fav is chicken fried rice and thai green curry 🍛 Kids friendly 😎 Friendly staff I loved her way of speaking ❤️ I will visit this place often 😊 Must try 💯

05/08/2025: If you don’t like or can’t have spicy food, this is not your restaurant 😅 everything is super spicy there. The restaurant is clean and nice, the quality of food is good, but nowhere on the menu the level of being spicy of each dish is mentioned and even if you ask, they answer not much, while it’s too much🌶️🥵

29/08/2025: Excellent food, really friendly service, very accommodating with two small toddlers. Will definitely visit again.

27/08/2025: We had Ground & Co. cater our wedding garden party a few years ago and they were absolutely incredible from start to finish! Every detail was taken care of and our guests couldn’t have been happier. We offered three main course options along with a beautiful dessert table. The food was outstanding, fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. The staff were professional, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly. Thanks to Ground & Co., we were able to relax and enjoy the day knowing the catering was in such capable hands. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

22/08/2025: My favourite place in Galway to grab a glass of red as the menu and service is always top class!

15/08/2025: A great place with a very good wine list! The cheese board is highly recommended! The owner is a great host! Highly recommended!

13/08/2025: I felt like being in France. Everything tastes mouthful. And yes you can hear some French speaking in the background, one of the reason being so good I guess. Don’t hesitate, just go !

27/07/2025: I'm travelling from Melbourne, and the coffee here is great, but the reason for the 5 star review is the Pain Aux Raisin. I've never had a pastry that good in my life!

07/09/2025: Service needs a lot of work. Sitting area is very dirty. Guy behind the counter ignored us to serve other people when the walked up and was then snarky when we point it out.

01/09/2025: I really like the food here but I noticed the bowltoping are always empty and makes me skip at time cant understand why they can't put enough food on at lunchrush hour

26/09/2025: Fantastic and authentic Italian food

22/09/2025: This small but exquisite restaurant is a real insider tip. The food is simply fantastic. You can customize your pasta dish using the modular principle. There's something for every taste, including many vegetarian and vegan options. Add to that the friendly staff, who are always welcoming and attentive. An all-around successful visit that I highly recommend.

04/09/2025: Good coffee and service. Recommend.

05/08/2025: Rocked down here this morning at 6.57am . Walked into the place and was told they're not open for another 5mins. Asked could I even just sit inside as it was raining for the 3 mins . Was told I couldn't. I've been a regular here for years and I've been inside on numerous occasions 5 or 10 mins with other locals earlier. . . Forget about the not serving me for the 3 mins but to be told to stand out in the rain was terrible. .Plenty of other cafés in town that will appreciate the business. I'll not return

11/10/2025: We were so satisfied with rib-eye steak and all staff was very kind as well. I definitely highly recommend Martine’s. Thank you so much all the staff. :)

02/10/2025: Amazing place spent a few hours there it had good food!

25/09/2025: Great mocha and dark chocolate hot chocolate. Each drink purchase comes with a free chocolate as well. The staff is incredibly friendly and service is quick. Definitely recommend for chocolate lovers.

05/09/2025: First time trying Butlers hot chocolate and I took a risk buying a couple of boxes. The hot chocolate was DELICIOUS and much needed on a cold February day. A couple of boxes was also not enough. The chocolate is so delicious and I cannot wait for my next trip to Ireland so I can buy more.

01/08/2025: Great place, part of a sort-of larger complex of sorts. We were sat in the adjacent building with food from the other location. We had a local and international flight. The tonic went really well (not a big fan of tonic) with all the gins. The "international" flight went about as far abroad as Co. Kerry but I digress. All the gins were great, it was fun comparing and contrasting their various characters. I thought the local gin of Nora's stood up decently well against the others. The garnishes were paired well, but I was left with a slight feeling that the difference in fruit (the international flight was limited to lemon/lime/orange) made it a tad bit more difficult to directly compare the gins. On the other hand there is the argument of pairing each gin well to show it at its best I suppose. Thoroughly enjoyed the flights and the little information mats underneath.

26/07/2025: Genuinely think this was the best kebab in Ireland saved my life

18/07/2025: It ain't Vinnie's, however your man Aqeel is dead on. Feels like there's more options in the one takeaway than things I'm capable of conceiving of on a night out anyway. Always sorts you out on whatever notion strikes your fancy. Delectable garlic base pizza. I'm a fan of the milkshakes as well. Worth a gander anyway 5/5 pretty good hai

01/09/2024: 2 adults and 2 kids, nice food fast service. Had fish and chips oysters and 2 kids meals. Amazing oysters and cocktails, we will be back.

16/08/2024: Could be nice place,but bar mate( women with glasses)is very bad personality
