The best restaurants in Galway

30/05/2025: Everything was fantastic! Strongly recommend

24/05/2025: Absolutely incredible food. Highly recommend the monk fish if available

14/07/2025: We had a lovely dinner - the service was friendly and prompt, the atmosphere relaxing and the food was very enjoyable. The Aglio e Olio and Fettuccine con Gamberi hit the spot.

09/07/2025: Very good Italian restaurant. Friendly service and excellent food (both pizza and pasta)

07/07/2025: Amazing food especially if you love Italian food. Ideal for dates but don’t forget to reserve your table! My Recommendation: Tagliatelle Boscaiola :)

05/07/2025: We were lucky enough to get a table right away without a reservation as the place was very busy. We bother loved our food choices and wine/beer, too. There were 2 things that took away from my experience and only 1 is in anyway controlled by the restaurant: we were seated next to the bathroom and there was a non-stop stream of people going in and out. I know we just walked in, but this really did disrupt my enjoyment of my meal. The other 1 was the people sitting near us. The women behind us were on their phone doing a video chat using the speaker, so we had to listen to their entire convo, and then the men who joined them were obnoxiously loud. Normally, I am not bothered by these things quite so much, but tonight, the overall volume in the restaurant made it a challenge to talk to my partner.

07/06/2025: Great spot , small well organised queue to get in . I'll be back.

06/06/2025: Super lovely space with absolutely fantastic food and coffee. Very extensive veggie/vegan menu. Would deffo recommend the veggie breakfast, great portion and delicious too!

18/06/2025: Super friendly staff, the food was delicious! The mussels as a starter were plentiful, and the monkfish as a main course was excellent. The carafe of Chardonay went very well with the meal.

16/06/2025: Never Fails ❤️ Another delicious meal. Great service. Relaxed atmosphere. Simply wonderful! ❤️❤️

15/06/2025: Great ice cream. Comes from southern Ireland. Surprised there not more great ice cream shops with all the cows and fresh milk available locally. They bring you samples while you wait in line. The honeycomb caramel was good, small little crunchy pieces of honeycomb. The sorbets were all good. Raspberry and mango. My favorite was the smooth chocolate. So simple but so good.

12/06/2025: 🌍 Explore, Taste, and Travel with Us! Follow our adventures and food journeys on Insta: vibrant_wanderer_rhythm EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE Very rare and refreshing to find .

09/06/2025: Aniar is a creative culinary immersion from which you will emerge imprinted and inspired. Truly life changing. A journey through the West of Ireland’s unique flora, fauna, sea and wildlife in 24 courses, you are a traveler held in the welcoming hospitality and generosity of the entire team, chefs and servers alike. Each course is a chapter an epic of the land, each taste its words lovingly woven together into a captivating narrative. Indeed, the meal is like the Seanchaí of old. Like all classic stories, you will traverse the spectrum of emotions while dining, astonished gasps, even tears, and for those of us who have ancestral connections to the West of Ireland, a genetic remembrance of her offerings - to have never tasted something before but to know it intimately. If you are able to, also add the wine pairing to experience unique offerings that enhance and expand each course’s flavors. So as to avoid living life with eternal regret, be sure to pace yourself to allow for full enjoyment of the jewel box desserts - an olfactory ornamentation and sweetness symphony. What a privilege to dine here and experience Ireland’s culinary history and future being written and re-written nightly.

02/06/2025: Anair is one of the best restaurants I have visited while traveling. The food was incredible, and the service was excellent and efficient. All of the dishes and decor are from Western Ireland and were very creative. I will be going back the next time I am in Galway.

02/06/2025: The Pear Tree Cafe was a great starting point for a weekend stroll along the Salt Hill boardwalk. Recommend the breakfast toasts. The latte was good. The flat white could have been more refined. Other than that, the patio seemed large for sunnier days.

01/06/2025: Great people & food with a nice view

27/06/2025: Got delivery - food was amazing! So much flavour for chicken.

26/06/2025: Excellent service, delicious Brazilian food. Well-served dishes and fair prices considering the region. Impeccable quality. I went with friends for lunch, I had the picanha with added sausage, it was spectacular. Congratulations, I highly recommend it.

07/07/2025: Friendly, cosy, tasty and/or healthy vegan food. Mushroom burger was filling & flavoursome.

06/07/2025: Such a lovely place! Cozy place, calm background music, all vegan, super friendly stuff - convinced the kitchen making pancakes for us though we were running late. Pancakes were perfect and the chickies as well! Best Cafe / Restaurant in Galway so far. Will come back!

05/07/2025: Fianna was great! Excellent customer service.

05/07/2025: Great place to get ignored by staff

14/07/2025: So nice, delicious food and wine

12/07/2025: My husband and I had a great meal here. Delicious light meal. Good portion sizes. Overall it was a great place to grab dinner. Recommend getting reservations as it’s a small restaurant.

05/07/2025: Bistro/pub. Despite the tvs, and pub vibe, it wasn't super loud or crowded. There are various nooks that keep it spacious, and you can converse without shouting. Food was delicious. Service was friendly and attentive. Our hotel was across the street, and it was way better than the hotel food. Recommended for an easy authentic, chill experience.

02/07/2025: Great atmosphere and live Irish music. Staff was very friendly and helpful.

10/07/2025: A nice ambiance inside, including outdoor seating. Points deducted due to poorly washed glassware – many lipstick residues were still clearly visible.

05/07/2025: When they say they have the best Irish Coffee they aren't lying. I was hooked from the first sip. It's a cozy place to hang out for drinks as well.

04/07/2025: We had breakfast with a few friends and it was delicious, plates are affordable and bug enough to get fulfilled. They have a lot of options and ingredients feel fresh. Great experience over all
