The best restaurants in Galway

10/05/2026: Best Fish & Chips ever. The fish was delicious and cooked perfectly, the batter was crunchy and stayed crunchy even after been in the box (not burnt). The chips were from fresh potatoes. Serves with a little tub of tartar sauce and a chunk of lemon. A good portion so don't be snacking on the way there 🤣 There's a q of cars waiting patiently so you may have a wait. You can ring ahead with your order. The service was perfect and the lady in charge put chat on everyone. Check the opening hrs, not open on Sundays. We discovered this great spot when out for a Sunday drive so returned on a Sat and it was worth the hour drive ❤️ I have recommended to many people since my visit and it's on their list of places to get to this Summer. I'm sure they will enjoy as much as we have.

30/03/2026: food was topnotch and the service was beyond lovely ✨️

08/05/2026: We stopped with our 91yo mother and extended family. We had the most delicious lunch. I had the goat cheese sambo, the bread was excellent - sourdough roll. Portion size was just perfect. The very best chocolate biscuit cake which is made on the premises is worth driving from Dublin for. The owner John & his staff are welcoming and very friendly. Will definitely be back.

04/05/2026: The atmosphere was.great, the food was delicious. Waitresses very very kind. However the portions were very small - way too small for the price.

02/04/2026: A great place for a dinner in the Balinasloe area. We went for a lunch and the staff were excellent, food was speedy and great quality. I know Balinasloe isn't exactly a bustling city but if you're in the area it's a beautiful stop off and I'd recommend you have lunch here for sure!

01/06/2026: This forward-thinking landlord has created a peaceful, level area for RV's and campervans at this lovely pub. My husband was hospitalised leaving me alone with a dog who has fits under stress, in our van. I was'nt able to go every day but I don't know what I would have done without them and their kindness. Thank you.
