Kingfisher Club, University of Galway
Galway
17/08/2026: Stomach cruncher needs new upholstery of new pads I got nasty rash from it unhygienic n nasty 🤢
17/08/2026: 1. Multiple machines, such as chest press handle completely broken and unusable.
2. Not big enough and very crowded even in quiet hours.
3. Sometimes very friendly staff, other times incredibly rude staff.
4. Lifeguards at pool are sometimes extremely rude, others are incredibly sound.
Overall you never know what kind of experience you will get here sometimes it is trash.

Insomnia Coffee Company - Eyre Square Galway
Galway
10/08/2026: Came in for a “salted caramel latte icecap” ordered that exact thing and the girl Anza who served me was so rude. She replied in a harsh tone what u want it’s either an icecap or a latte and laughed in my face. I said that’s what it’s called on the menu and she laughed and put it through. She then right in front of me laughed about the comments with her coworker “like what she want” and laughed. Disgusting behaviour. I get my coffee here most days as I live in eyre square and I for sure will not be returning
04/08/2026: The waiters aren't smiling, the coffee is mediocre, and it's quite expensive. The only redeeming feature of this café is its convenient location within the shopping mall and its quiet atmosphere.

Golden Mountain
Galway
09/10/2026: Best Chinese I've had in years!
16/08/2026: 3 different orders online failed. When we arrived they rudely told us that they do not accept credit cards, even though there are credit card terminals all over their website. Avoid this silly place.

Boojum
Galway
08/10/2026: Absolutely disgusting. Found 2 dead flies on the lettuce in my burrito bowl. Tried calling two different Boojum numbers for the Galway store to report it and get a refund, but nobody answered either.
Finding a fly in your food is bad enough, but the complete lack of customer service is shocking.
AVOID.
02/10/2026: No proper manager here making sure things run smoothly. All of the place. Queues huge and it doesnt move quick. They prioritise deliveroo orders over those who physically come in and stand in the queue. They have enough staff but some working hard over others. A good manager would sort that. Would put you off coming back.

Elephant & Castle Galway
Galway
09/08/2026: The ambiance was amazing—very spacious and welcoming. However, the menu had limited options, and some items felt overpriced. I had fish and chips—the fish was decent but bland, and the chips were overcooked and hard. My girlfriend’s chicken wings were tasty, so I think I just picked the wrong dish. The presentation was a bit disappointing—more like fast food. I’d requested a birthday gesture when booking, and while they added a note, the half scoop of ice cream wasn’t great. I would’ve liked a proper dessert option. Overall, the service was okay, but since the takeover, I miss the old menu. I probably wouldn’t return.
01/06/2026: I had the chicken supreme for dinner, and it was delicious. Wonderful staff and atmosphere. Shout out to Emma!

SuperSubs
Galway
10/07/2026: I have Supersubs here and in many Supersub outlets often. There is one partucular server in this outlet who charges extra for parmeasan cheese topping - I have had parmeasan as a topping here three times in the last 10 days with another server with no mention of extra cost. No other outlet I use charge for it either. When using one of their loyalty card, this server charges €3.00 for a drink when all other servers I have encountered, both here, and in other outlets, only charge €1.50. 😑 I won't use this place again while this particular person is on duty. Server involved working 10/7/2026 at 9.45am.

Supermac's
Galway
15/09/2026: I ordered a veggie burger and ate it at the hotel. Afterward, I threw up all night and had extreme stomach pain. I hadn't eaten anything else in the hours leading up to that, so it must have been the burgers fault. Not recommended.
05/09/2026: Where do I begin, ordered food with the young one yesterday, upon finishing my chips I was still hungry so I got a chicken wrap while my daughter was still finishing hers, got the wrap, then my daughter wanted to go over 2 meters to look and pick out her ice cream for after food, we weren't there 1 minute when our food we hadn't finished was snatched and binned. I asked them when I realized why did they do that, 'oh were ye not finished', absolutely astonishing. When the matter was told to the manager, he just banged on the till screen, went to the chef and no response, i said I want my money back please, still no response or an apology from this so called manager with the chin strap for a beard. We got the ice cream and left, but when ordering the pink crunch ice cream, one of the workers tried to put one of the ingredients in the microwave as it got hard(it was still in plastic bottle), he said he'd open a new one, but when we left and on our way to car, that ingredient in the ice cream had hardened and was like hard glue, ice cream inedible. An absolute disgrace of an establishment, and eye sore to the community while taking people's hard earned money in the bin. Not a clue between them. Will never be back.

Gourmet Tart Co.
Galway
06/09/2026: I'm a terrible coffee lover, and I ended up in a country with the worst coffee shops. I've been to many 5-star coffee shops over four years, but I've never found good coffee in any of them. I stumbled upon this one by chance and was very pleasantly surprised. I really enjoyed the flatwhite. Thank you so much. And by the way, my wife says the macarons are delicious.
06/09/2026: The coffee was absolutely delicious, and the macarons were so delicate and simply melted in my mouth! I will definitely be coming back again.
It’s really hard to find genuinely good coffee in Ireland, so I’m very happy I found this place. ☕️❤️
