The best restaurants in Galway

11/10/2025: Just a little bit in the middle of nowhere but a real nice place to stay in, staff very friendly, food good, rooms comfortable and warm a little on the older side but nice.

14/08/2025: The rooms were adequate but felt outdated. Both the bathroom sinks and showers struggled to drain water. At one point, I turned the shower off to let the water drain before I finished rinsing my hair because it almost overflowed into the bathroom. Family in other rooms said they witnessed the same situations. The meals were average and service was very slow. Drinks were expensive and not very tasty. Our waitresses were pleasant and always apologizing for the long wait for food. When ordering meals, some days we got “x” and other days we got “y” when ordering the exact same dish. No explanations were given when we asked why yesterday the dish was different. Breakfast was also hit or miss. The options were slim and the tables often ran out of bread, butter, cereals… and no one replenished them. Coffee refills were nonexistent unless you asked - and even then, be prepared to wait, and wait, and wait for your refill. The card keys were always deactivating. We had to get new card keys several times. At one point, our card deactivated 3 times in less than an hour. We were locked out and at the mercy of the empty reception desk. I would recommend making reservations elsewhere.

29/06/2025: I asked for a kebab without onions and I was not only ignored, but there was so much onion that after I took it out I came across it again and again, the kebab was so spicy that I couldn’t eat it. Very disappointed

19/02/2025: We had now 3 consistently great kebab orders from the place and its fair to leave a review. Really good kebab place :) Fantastic Vegetarian option - and a chicken kebab packed with fresh meat and salad! Loughrea has a really good Kebab place - it is the place for your Kebab cravings!

16/08/2025: Characteristic setting with views of the beautiful Portumna Castle.

06/08/2025: The food was less than average, the staff were lovely, and the Basil Fawlty award for rudeness in Irish Tea Rooms goes to the owner/manager.

10/08/2025: This might actually be the worst pizza i ever had. I rang and asked what pizzas they did as there didn't seem to be a menu. I was told just pepperoni. ??? Thanks bud, very helpful. So I got a pepperoni, which came with almost no cheese. It was essentially just bread and some cheap sauce. It wasn't sliced. It tasted terrible. I would have been just as happy eating a slice of plain toast. Imagine installing a fat oven pizza stove for some hot bread. So bad i actually left a review, which I've never done before.

15/07/2025: Ordered 2 pizzas here for takeaway. The base was very nice on both and the staff were lovely but for €16.50 takeaway I expected more toppings. The service was quick.

30/09/2025: Terrible experience. Ordered chicken biryani with a friend and it was awful — the chicken tasted strange and honestly inedible. On top of that, they had the nerve to charge extra for the sides (salad and raita) that usually come with biryani everywhere else. Total rip-off. To make it worse, I even ordered one for takeaway but ended up canceling because I couldn’t bring myself to go through that again. Easily the worst Indian food I’ve had in Ireland, and I regret wasting money here. Would never recommend this place to anyone.

28/06/2025: Delicious food and always great customer service. Our go-to take away restaurant in Tuam.

30/08/2025: Chips where soggy and full of grease only a few in the bag, cheese burger had only one small pice onion on it very Disappointing never go there agin

09/07/2025: Having read the reviews, most of which were okay, I thought I'd give it a try. Chips were okay. Chicken kebab was inedible. Don't think I've ever stopped eating something so quickly.

31/08/2025: 20/8/2025 It had been years since I last came to eat at this place. Outrageous prices for what they offer: I had asked for a double portion of vegetables, they charged me extra for the request, but as you can see, while eating, there wasn’t a single trace of vegetables in my meal! Dishonest, incompetent, and absurdly expensive. They even asked for €2 more per person just to sit at a table! Unfortunately, Loughrea doesn’t have many good options, but I will never give my money to these thieves again!!! 26/7/2023 The food could have good potential and good quality, but for 3 years now the quality is scarce, the products are not very fresh, the costs (quality - price ratio) are high. They need a makeover of the staff and cooks! Also, due to the extra service cost, the place is empty, and the service cost isn't justified when the table is just an empty table with no cutlery whatsoever.

28/06/2025: Asked for jug of water, received bottled water - €3 each. Menu price different to til price - rip off.

01/07/2025: we were looking forward to coming to this restaurant all was well to start and then I got my lamb shank Biryani was the lamb shank was cold as ice in the middle it looks like it wasn't made fresh and just reheated the condiments on the table were used and looked like it's been sitting in the kitchen all day the sad part was we were the only customers in the place and it was suck a let down to get service and food like this I'm a Chef my self and I would never let one of my guests have a experience like this just they didn't charge for the lamb shank but it just doesn't make up for that level of food and service

25/05/2025: Can I get the contact of the owner please? Urgent!!! Poor customer service on 25/05/2025 Time: 8.30 pm
