Rock - Coffee & Sandwich Bar
Galway
02/09/2026: Staff were so friendly . The new items on the menu is a welcomed addition. Keep up the good work guys xx
02/09/2026: First and last time to visit this cafe, staff were cold and unfriendly and unhelpful, i felt like i was intruding on their time rsther than a customer.
The price was excessive for what was served and was city centre prices for a small cafe in an industrial estate. I was the only customer in sit down area, the breakfast burrito was not great, part was cold ,as in fridge temp cold.
The coffee was ok. But definitely will not be going back and will not advise others to either.

The Universal
Galway
16/09/2026: Waitress took care and checked in on everyone around us but us. Cocktails are amazing. Sole fish dinner is entire fish bone in…. Just let us know that. It was very hard to get bones off of fish.
30/08/2026: Only disappointment was the waitress. Rude at times and often not clear on what was on the menu. Putting the reserved sign for another party on the table before asking about desert was unfortunate.

Yummy Wok
Galway
25/09/2026: We had really high hopes as this place seems the have the most reviews on JustEat with a 4.3 Star rating. I think that’s an absolutely lie and this place must be paying for reviews.
We rang the takeaway to explain our concerns and the Woman on the phone refused to give us her name and told us to email, Just eat instead for a refund even thought there just the middle man and haven’t gone in and cooked this meal. She also refused to let us speak to her manager and wouldn’t let us request a call from the manger when he is next in work.
This is absolutely ridiculous.
Honestly, this was the worst Chinese food I’ve ever had.
First of all, the food took over an hour to arrive, which was disappointing enough. Unfortunately, the food itself was even worse.
We ordered the salt and chilli chicken balls, and the chicken was incredibly stringy, chewy, and unpleasant. We also ordered the hot garlic sauce, which was ridiculously oily, while the satay sauce was extremely watery and lacked any real flavour.
They even gave us a free portion of salt and chilli chicken, but it was honestly anemic-looking — extremely pale, chewy, and completely unappetising.
In the end, we threw away around €50 worth of food because it was simply not enjoyable or worth eating.
Given the quality of the food and the fact that we had to throw the majority of it away, I would like to request a full refund of the €50 we spent. I don’t think it’s reasonable to pay for food that was genuinely inedible.
I would never order from here again, and based on our experience, I definitely wouldn’t recommend it to anyone. Very disappointing experience from start to finish
Do not order here
22/08/2026: Eating a delicious medium spice szechuan. Perfect for someone looking for a hearty meal after a hangover with egg fried rice. Ready exceptionally quick. Tasty. Just what the doctor ordered!

Charcoal Grill
Galway
14/10/2026: Delicious food and great service! 5 out of 5 stars from me!
29/09/2026: We came to Ireland on a school trip and visited Galway. My friends and I came here to eat. I had a kebab, my friends had hamburgers. Speaking for myself, 14 Euros for one kebab and one ayran (yogurt drink) seemed a bit expensive to me, but I don't know if it's like that all over Ireland. The kebab wasn't the best I've ever had, but it was good, so I'm giving it 4 stars.
Correction: The price was reasonable, my mistake.

03/09/2026: They give me frozen shop bought waffles. I was not expecting that from a place named on waffle. strawberry's were mushy and the cream was off. Staff are very nice and attentive, very few decent food place left in Galway. Sad to see all the business working with menu provided by Vandors.

Queen Street Galway
Galway
20/09/2026: Brought my mother here after she got her cancer diagnosis because it had good reviews and we were getting her last drink before shes not allowed drink anymore, she didnt pronounce the name of the wine right and the waiter gave out to her for it. Didn't have the heart to complain at the time but my mum felt stupid even though the name of the wine was in a language she didnt speak. You never know what someone's going through and coming from someone who has worked in the service industry he should have had some professionalism while at work. It was a very quiet day, no one else around so I think he was taking his own shit out on us. Can never go back without thinking of it.
12/08/2026: Fabulous food had a lovely coffee also great service

26/04/2026: Burnt the bean, bad work ethic. Will be going to sliding rock from now on even though that place is a kip too. Ive heard good things about mocha beans, might try that out. But yeh, idk really. Londis chicken roll was shockingly bad too.

Merchant Café & Bar
Galway
18/08/2026: Had a delicious ice coffee made by Jennifer and it was so delicious. Service was great and everyone was so kind
13/08/2026: Even as a hotel guest, you can't get a table here at 8 pm without a reservation. Half the place was empty, but although the kitchen is officially open until 8:30 pm, the staff seemed to prefer setting up early for breakfast. And nobody there seemed to be working themselves to the bone.

Burgerstory

03/09/2026: The Hunger Burger was absolutely incredible. I especially loved that it had traditional Irish boxty in it, which we wanted to try anyway, and it really hit the spot.
30/08/2026: The Burgerstory is a popular fast-casual restaurant located in the heart of Galway’s quaint Latin Quarter, Ireland, known for its burgers made with local beef and an atmosphere inspired by classic American diners.
