20/06/2026: Fantastic food at very reasonable prices, served by a friendly and highly professional team. The menu offers an excellent variety, including fish and chips, kebabs, pizzas, and plenty of other options to suit every taste. Whether you choose to dine in or take your meal to go, the quality is consistently impressive. The dining area is spacious, spotless, and comfortable, while the restrooms are clean and well maintained. A wonderful place to enjoy a meal, and one I would happily recommend to anyone.

The Pins Gastro Bar
Bearna
03/07/2026: Wonderful experience, beautiful food, Molly was our server, so lovely and helpful
25/06/2026: We had some trout and soup and it was delicious! The decor is giving family restaurant with big screens to watch the football, which is not my style at all, but the food was absolutely delicious. The soda bread in particular was phenomenal! And the staff were really nice and lovely. It was reasonably priced and really good quality.

China Palace
Athenry
16/05/2026: We visited this tiny village by accident and instantly fell in love with the people and quaint town. I saw the Chinese restaurant and we decided to take a chance. Boy, Howdy!! It was fantastic.
The restaurant is very clean and elegant. We were next to a cozy heater and we're attended to right away by friendly servers.
We started with these airy crispy delicious light savory chip things that appear like pillowy clouds but have a light texture. I didn't detect the prawn flavor so had to stop where my husband reminded me of my shellfish allergy but I almost risked it anyway because they were so perfect.
The crispy won tons are so pretty. They look like a button of filling with a pretty twist of flaky dough tied up like a scarf and quickly fried to a perfect golden brown. They are like a little present for your mouth and the rice filling was sweet and a perfect soft and chewy texture . The duck sauce is a lovely compliment for dipping. I had to force myself to stop so I'd have room for the entree.
My husband said he loved the hot and sour soup. He asked to bring the leftovers back with us so that's a high endorsement.
I ordered an Irish beef and green pepper in black bean sauce and some noodles . They arrived in short order and were presented like a sizzling fajita in a steaming platter on a wood base. The smell had me giggling with anticipation.
The stir fried noodles were delicate and cooked to a perfect texture. They weren't gooey with sauce but lightly tossed so the flavors and seasonings coated but didn't smother the string sized noodles.
My husband got the Thai prawns and curry. A platter arrived with my entree and nested beside on a heating gadget.
We dug in deep. I knew from the appetizers that the food was going to be top notch. I wasn't wrong. The beef was tender and cooked to perfection. The sauce had a great kick but was eased by the richness of the black beans and peppercorns.
But it was the green peppers and onions that impressed me. They weren't overcooked but sliced easily and I swam a bite in the sauce and bit into the most well cooked green pepper. It still had a fresh from the garden crispness but hot and juicy going down.
We were already in love with the village and such open and kind people that we would have happily eaten pub food, again. But what a treat this restaurant is. If you're lucky enough to be in Ireland, especially within a 100 km of Galway then do your mouth a favor and get dinner here. They also do take away but the service is so good you deserve to treat yourself and some loved ones to a sit down service.
If there were ten stars I'd pick 11.

Armorica
Oranmore
26/10/2025: Gorgeous Tapas. Better new location had a lovely evening. Great friendly service. We had a lovely evening.
30/09/2025: This place is a good option to stay near Galway, the room is fine, nothing special very simple and require some basic renovation, our stay was pleasant but for what we payed we probably could find something much better and closer to town.
The best here is the restaurant and the staff, even if didn't have dinner due it was fully booked the night we stayed, we had breakfast there next day and it was really good. Parking is small but enough, we had to wait for a while to be able to park but is included with no extra cost which is fine.

Coffee Junction Loughrea
Loughrea legal town
13/12/2025: Fantastic service and great food! The paninis are to die for. It's not understating to say that these paninis are probably the best I've had during my time in Ireland. Friendly, kind, and helpful staff. They know the menu well and can answer any questions! We had a big order for our group, and we got it swiftly and hot! I will be making a trip from Dublin here again, just for the food and coffee.
22/11/2025: Great coffee and food
