The best restaurants in Galway

04/04/2024: Dingle sea salt was simple just like vanilla Ice cream, however, it tasted even better

01/04/2024: One of the best ice creams I’ve ever had, very kind staff that come and greet you at the door and on the street with samples and have all different flavors that are the perfect size and the perfect consistency and a very fresh tasting Ice cream

01/04/2024: Do not miss this place if in the area. Me and 4 mates were visiting a few weeks back and we thought it would be good but it was even better than expected. The burgers are insanely good I'd go as far as one of the best I've ever had. The service was quick and really welcoming. We have already said when we go back we will be visiting here again no hesitation.

24/03/2024: Have been there multiple times (last time yesterday evening) The food: good portions size, the french fries are so tasty, the burgers are good too ( the only thing I would suggest would a bit more sauce perhaps, my burger was a bit on the very little sauce side) but overall a good place to eat. Service: good service full of hard working staff, friendly & polite always checking on the tables ensuring that costumers are looked after. Location: hidden, but not hard to find :-). Overall experience: if you are looking for a bite of America in Galway city this place is worth a visit.

01/04/2024: Great quality and value fish & chips meals in the region. Friendly and efficient service in a casual atmosphere. Well worth a visit.

31/03/2024: Fantastic seafood, all delicious! We had the croquettes and half portion of seafood chowder for starters, and the fish stew and risotto for mains. They don't take reservations for smaller groups or pairs, so we had to give our number and they call people back. In our case, we waited outside 15 minutes and were offered the option to be seated at a shared round table (which we eventually shared with 3 other pairs): this was a great way to slash waiting times and meet new people over a delicious meal!

31/03/2024: If you want to experience what Irish pub culture is all about go to this pub !

30/03/2024: Lovely friendly staff good thanks service

21/03/2024: Excellent bar for a traditional night in Galway not for music but just for drink and locals. Busy night when I was in it staff were slow enough to serve and had to wave at them at times to get attention. Also it's very bright in there some people might not like that. But the pints of Guinness were decent

23/02/2024: Very knowledgable and friendly staff and an amazing range of whiskeys.

04/04/2024: Disappointing culinary experience despite warm service. Opting for the halloumi dish, I was looking forward to its rich flavour and texture, but it tasted lacklustre. It bore the unfortunate impression of having been precooked. It lacked its natural succulence. The chips were tasty.

04/04/2024: If you are looking for decent irish home-cooked food at its best, do not look further. We were being quite lost as foreigners where we should have lunch as we wanted to taste some real authentic dishes but non of the other places we found were really convincing, then bumped into this small restaurant by accident. Seafood chowder was amazing, irish stew and baked salmon the best we’ve ever had. Huge thanks for the wonderful experience and greetings from Hungary!

29/03/2024: Great quiet pub away from the tourist hustle and bustle...

25/03/2024: Good pub with a good rock music ambience

04/04/2024: Delicious food - we had the patatas bravas, tortilla, Jamon croquettes, pork belly and churros for dessert. Fabulous atmosphere, efficient and friendly staff. Wonderful dining experience , thank you so much to all staff at Cava Bodega.

02/04/2024: Exceptional tapas, great service, awesome atmosphere and extremely good value for money. In the Michelin guide for about the past 8 years… would highly recommend. Went as a couple on Easter Monday, sat downstairs. Book to avoid disappointment.

31/03/2024: A wonderful cosy atmosphere and above all incredible service. I have many allergies and dietaries, and the staff were so attentive and kind, made the whole experience seamless and enjoyable. Will come back next time I’m in Galway.

14/03/2024: Enjoyed a great dinner here. Did not make a reservation but was seated immediately and enjoyed a great cocktail with my sea bass dinner.

02/04/2024: Not your typical chipper, you'll be paying more than average for a bag but the ingredients are fresh, and you can see the whole frying process while you wait. Great selection of different dips, seasonings and toppings which I believe are homemade. Fantastic taste. Recommend for a quick to-go bite . Staff were welcoming. They recently won Galway Bay FMs best chipper award which I think is deserved. Pity there is not much indoor seating but they are restricted by their building size. They could do with getting a wipe mat on the floor for wet days, it was very slippy when I went in.

29/03/2024: Friendly staff and delicious fries!

04/04/2024: Woozza? More like wowza! Great pizza and cold moretti in the heart of Galway

03/04/2024: Wow wow wow!! Came for pizza and stayed longer for the tiramisu 😉 highly recommend!!!!

02/04/2024: Great place with a fun atmosphere! Some of the best sandwiches and chips I’ve ever had. Highly recommend the Chicken Parm sandwich and the Parm Bacon Fries!

02/04/2024: Amazing homemade burger an the fries 👌🏼 .

04/04/2024: Very good food. Unfortunately the head of staff is an arrogant eejit who doesn't have the slightest clue about dining etiquette and finds normal to bring starters to the table whilst his customers have barely received their aperitif. When I pointed out to him that he leave us time to finish our gin and tonics before serving the food he answered " not necessarily" and was thereafter brusque and put up an attitude. The young ladies waiting on us were charming but this guy, the short and bald one was a joke. He even started speaking broken French to us for some reason. None of us were French and I'm Irish. He gave us a good laugh though. The restaurant should consider employing someone with decent social and customer relation skills. Or at least give the silly little man some dining etiquette and frustration management courses.

01/04/2024: Food is fine but the amount of seabass in main course dish is incredibly small especially for that price. We also ordered coca cola, waiter put a lot of ice in the glass and poured only half of bottle without bringing the bottle on the table.

28/03/2024: Great coffee served by a passionate gent.

20/03/2024: An unbelievable experience from start to finish. We met with David to talk about barista training for our youth group. David was so passionate about coffee and supporting us with our mission, to give young people the opportunity to learn more about coffee and barista skills. David looked after us like royalty and his kind nature and fun spirit made our Friday. We had the best coffee of our lives and amazing pastries, they were to die for. We are looking forward to going back already.

01/04/2024: Had a lovely meal at Alma. Both meals were delicious. Lamb fell off the bone, very tender and tasty. Monkfish stew had great flavours, had the same meal in Lisbon but this was better. Service was also excellent so would highly recommend

17/03/2024: Would highly recommend, we will be returning for sure
