The best restaurants in Galway

19/10/2025: Lovely old style pub which I visited when I was home on holiday. I brought my mother there as this was the pub my father used to drink in years ago.

28/09/2025: Great pub, hyped for the Guinness and rightfully so, full of proper friendly locals, highly recommended.

20/02/2026: Amazing restaurant, will definitely be returning. Staff were lovely as was the food. I really recommend for a fancy night out

18/02/2026: This was probably the best meal I had in Galway. All food was excellent, definitely order the spaghetti carbonara.

22/02/2026: From the warm welcome to the lovely servers, the whole experience was amazing and the food was delicious. A visit to Sangria is highly recommended. We will be back!

22/02/2026: Great place, very good service and wonderful food with great drinks. Sensational!

28/01/2026: Been going every Wednesday for the last 4 months

18/01/2026: I've tried the famous Murphy's ice cream in Galway, but I think this one tastes better. For a similar price, they give you a much larger portion (Murphy's portions are so small...). And best of all, the pistachio flavor is amazing! It was delicious. The nutty flavor and the pistachio flakes were chewy. I enjoyed it even though I was full. If you like something refreshing, the pomegranate flavor is also pretty good. There were many flavors like Ferrero Rocher, dragon fruit, Lindor chocolate, Kinder, and cheesecake. I'd love to try them all. As a pita lover, I'd definitely try this flavor...🤤

24/02/2026: Great hotel. Great food staf on point 🙏

18/01/2026: got a takeaway lunch was awfel veg.hard as rocks chicken wing for supreme of chicken no potatoes.

12/02/2026: Really good food and excellent customer service. Definitely I will be back

31/01/2026: Ordered a takeaway, so didn't dine in. However, food was great as was the service. No complaints, would go here again 👍🏼

03/03/2026: I have been to many pubs, for many years, and this is my favorite. Whether I am taking a group, or just getting a pint by myself, An Pucan strikes the perfect balance. In the front they have a nice old school irish pub and often feature trad music. Perfect pints and excellent staff. No rude doorman - everyone cool. In back their chef is excellent and service is quick - have never had a bad meal. In the event space in far back they can cater to teams and groups. I have brought large groups and they really work to make An Pucan everyone’s favorite. Location, music, service, reasonable prices and all types of seating (and music) bring me back again and again.

01/03/2026: Great spot. Very lively. Opens early till late. Multiple bands and a DJ.

20/02/2026: My partner and I visited on our trip to Galway to get some drinks. What a great place! Staff was great, Roland was amazing, recommended us some places to go in Dublin (which were great as well), and gave us some lessons on gin and some laughs. There are some board games available too for some entertainment. Bar is clean and has plenty of personality. Great selection of beer as well! Highly recommend stopping here

29/01/2026: A classic in Salthill. Highly recommended.

21/12/2025: Handiest for a take out coffee. Pull up outside and the counter is right beside you. Avoid anti car types and traffic wardens though

13/12/2025: One of the few places offering an omelette. Excellent!

09/03/2026: We have been there for 2 weeks, they serve us beers several times without any problem, but suddenly they stop and I don’t get it, if you stay true to your policies then follow them no matter what, but if you serve us and then stop serving when we are spending more money than probably people bowling or playing darts I feel betrayed and scam. I thought I found a home to play pool and have a few beers but now we will stop going there. In addition finding a worker for any matter is like playing where’s wally, they hide in the back office for ages, you can even hear the laughs from the front desk. One of the worst customer service I’ve experienced in my life. I hope the owner read this and act somehow. Have a lovely day

09/02/2026: Been to a birthday party like many times before. Good atmosphere, many games options and fun

21/02/2026: Superb authentic pizza. Lovely restraunt and staff.

18/02/2026: Great Italian restaurant! The pasta was fresh and full of flavor, and the pizza was perfectly cooked with a crispy base. Friendly staff, cozy atmosphere, and good portion sizes. Definitely a place I would come back to and recommend to friends and family. 🍝🍕

08/11/2025: Absolutely outstanding! I can’t recommend Elite Cake Boutique Galway highly enough! I simply told her, “I trust you — do what you can,” and she absolutely delivered beyond all expectations. The cake she created was perfect inside and out — beautifully designed, full of creativity, and so much attention to detail. It was for a special 25th anniversary, and she captured the poker theme flawlessly — from the cards and chips to every little decoration. Everyone was amazed by how stunning it looked, and even more impressed by how delicious it tasted! You can tell she puts her heart into every creation. Thank you so much for making something so special and memorable — you truly went above and beyond. 💖🎂👏 Elite Cake Boutique Galway — pure talent and perfection!

27/10/2025: My first experience with this bakery and I've absolutely zero regrets. They made THE BEST cake! Every guest loved it. A wee bit pricey but at the end of the day it's worth each penny of it! Keep up the good work!

29/08/2025: Amazing! I placed an order from Spain and couldn't be happier with both the product and kindf_olk. I recommend it. Thank you very much!

01/07/2025: Georgia is amazing!! Thank you so much for making our group laugh and giving us so many amazing recommendations. Next time we come through, we’ll make sure to visit you first for suggestions on how to maximize our time. You’re cool af. #skinnyjeansforever
