Lana Salthill Asian Street Food
Galway
29/09/2026: Am a local and I’ve been eating here since it opened, my favourite is the slow cooked beef massama curry and the vegetable pad Thai. The staff are great and work hard, I can see they are understaffed considering how busy it is lately and I’ve often seen customers be rude to them when it’s the management that need to hire more people! Food is consistently good!
28/09/2026: This was a disappointing experience. Both my husband and I were looking forward to eating here and neither of our dishes had any flavor. We had a few bites and then asked for the check. Our waitress didn’t ask how our experience was and took awhile to bring us our check.

Le Bistro Restaurant

09/07/2026: Great clean and spacious room. Beds were comfy and location was ideal. As a group of ladies attending a concert, we felt safe walking back late at night.
29/06/2026: Experience exceptional customer service and a wonderful stay right in the heart of Galway. That's how I would describe my stay at this hotel. Clean friendly staff and conveniently located.

HUSH? BURGER
Galway
20/09/2026: Honestly unbelievable
10/10 best take away in Galway
11/08/2026: This company is a scam. What do you mean I got half my order jammed in a bag so tight it burst all over my doorstep, their phone number doesn't work to call to complain or to get a refund/the other half of my order??? Reading other reviews proves this is not an isolated incident either. I say, don't bother

Gemelle's
Galway
22/01/2026: The owner’s behavior was beyond inappropriate. After I briefly used the restroom, I was confronted about forgetting to flush — fine, human error — but it escalated into being scolded about needing to *wash the sink* because I used hand sanitizer and “you don’t leave a sink that way.” I wish that were satire. What pushed it into absurd territory was the owner then **following me outside onto the street** to continue berating me. For context, this was in Ireland, where public bathrooms regularly survive far worse than a missed flush, and I was a young tourist who had literally just stopped in looking for the Wi-Fi password. That level of hostility says everything about this establishment’s culture. If you’re looking for genuine warmth, fair prices, and an actually wholesome experience, go somewhere authentic instead. Keep your “positive energy” far away from this negative environment — the branding may say serene indication, but the attitude screams bitter.

24/08/2026: The food was okay, but the dishes lacked a bit of flavor.
Small portions for the price.
Slow service.
The waiter wasn't friendly. He seemed rushed and completely inattentive to the customers. The service was a shame.

Zappi's
Galway
18/07/2026: Truly excellent pizza, no complaints there. Cooked well, with carefully selected, quality ingredients. The dough wasn't up to par, it was very overcooked, and the taste was so-so—a shame. But if you mistake it for a pizzeria, it's perfectly fine.
09/05/2026: They were sampling some of the pizza out in the square and it was quite good. We decided to try out the restaurant. Tried ordering several things, but the first 3 things we tried to order were out. Finally ordered a pizza and a salad. Friends with us had ordered a pizza. Theirs came so much before ours that they had finished it and the waitstaff was looking to clear the table, but we hadn't received even our salad yet. When the food came, it was quite good, but the combination of the extreme delay, the items that were out, and the lack of timing is going to be problematic for this restaurant.

Diner
Galway
28/11/2025: Has obviously changed with new owners but not for the better. Restaurant size is reduced for the inclusion of a bakers shop. Walls are now bare. The menu and choice has somewhat shrunk. Sorry not changed for the better. Left feeling disappointed that the must have breakfast in Donegal town is no more.
NOW PERMANENTLY CLOSED.
09/10/2025: Great food and atmosphere at Dock 84! 🍴☕️
We stopped into Dock 84 while in Donegal Town and had a really enjoyable experience. The place has a relaxed, modern vibe with plenty of space to sit back and enjoy a meal. Staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. 😊
I ordered the grilled chicken burger 🍔🐔 and it was excellent — the chicken was juicy and perfectly cooked, with fresh toppings and a soft bun that held everything together nicely. It was filling without being too heavy, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh.
My wife went for the waffle with a spread of Nutella 🧇🍫 and it was a real treat. The waffle was light and fluffy with just the right crisp on the outside, and the Nutella made it indulgent without being over the top. A perfect sweet option to balance out my savory choice.
The second time we went we had egg shakshuka and Tikka wrap which was good again as usual
One of the highlights here is that Dock 84 has its own bakery products 🥐🍞, and they are absolute delights — fresh, tasty, and clearly made with care. It’s a lovely bonus alongside the main menu.
Do note that there’s usually a wait time of around 15 minutes ⏳ throughout the day, but honestly, the food and atmosphere make it worth it.
For convenience, there’s a car park directly in front of the café 🚗, though it is a paid one 💳, so keep that in mind if you’re driving in.
Service was quick once seated, prices were fair 💶, and the location is ideal if you’re exploring Donegal Town 🏞️. Whether you’re after a hearty bite or something sweet, Dock 84 is a spot worth visiting. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town! 🙌

Leaf and Bean (Ballybrit)
Galway
25/09/2026: Had the beef brisket on sourdough bread. Absolutely delicious
05/06/2026: Visited Infinity Café in Parkmore for a team lunch with my colleagues. The café is conveniently located near the Parkmore Industrial Estate and offers a comfortable, casual setting. There is adequate parking available, and the seating capacity is reasonable for a café of this size.
One aspect that stood out was the limited selection of vegetarian lunch options. While my colleagues were happy with their meals and described them as both satisfying and delicious, I found the vegetarian choices quite restricted. I opted for the Super Fit Vegetarian Salad, which consisted of mixed lettuce leaves, chickpeas, feta cheese, tomatoes, falafel, and beetroot. The ingredients were fresh, but the portion size felt modest considering the price point.
Overall, the café appears to cater well to those without specific dietary preferences, and based on my colleagues’ feedback, the food quality was good. However, I would love to see a broader range of vegetarian options added to the lunch menu in the future.
