The best restaurants in Galway

01/01/2026: We were looking for a full Irish pub experience and this bar was a really good choice. Not too crowded but great atmosphere. The only downside was that there was no music in the background, other than that, very cozy and Irish-aesthetic pub!

28/08/2025: Very good fast friendly and clean good food

14/08/2025: We had a large and delicious breakfast in family. Daniela gave us an outstanding service, thank you!!

12/09/2025: Excellent sandwiches and beautiful setting!

20/08/2025: Previous review a bit harsh , food was very nice , the brown bread was really lovely , the staff were welcoming and friendly , and when I might have made a wrong judgement I’ll always apologise, I also should have read the menu correctly , there is absolutely NO reason not to enjoy a lovely breakfast in a warm welcoming atmosphere, which we find is the norm from Mayo people , warm welcoming and DECENT , so for any hungry tourists or locals , pop in to Mc Hugh’s of Cong , they won’t disappoint C

29/08/2025: I booked the fairy pig walk and planned to propose to my boyfriend as he really loves pigs. Mary was amazing and helped me organize everything. She sent me videos beforehand so that I knew where to go with him, let Emilia the pig deliver the ring to my boyfriend and took pictures and videos for us. We got to do the walk, meet all of the other animals and even got to meet the piglets. Marys and Roys kindness made this day special and we will always remember it with a smile. Thank you for everything!

26/08/2025: From the moment we entered, Mary made us feel so welcome and meet us on the car park. My daughter Emelia is obsessed with pigs so this was her dream come through. Emelia got to meet Emilia the pig. Emilia was very calm on the fairy walk and Mary has her well trained to stop for pictures and videos. We then went to meet Apollo the pig and learnt how to brush and act around the mini pigs. We then went into the mini pigs which were so friendly and loved a belly rub. We meet the other animals and fed them they were all so friendly. Thank you we had the best day ever , ten out of ten ❤️🐷🐽🥰

24/06/2026: great kebabs and pizza and burgers

20/05/2026: The service was excellent, the kebab was huge, and very good.

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.

17/06/2026: A charming traditional country pub with a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The staff and locals are incredibly friendly, making you feel right at home. The Guinness is poured to perfection, making it well worth a visit.

04/06/2026: Cheaper than the Temple Bar. Music is rather relaxed, but very good.

01/09/2025: Probably the best place for food in Loughrea, The staff are so friendly and helpful.

30/08/2025: Best food in town with great oldies disco (Karaoke) on a Friday night 😀✨️

11/06/2026: As always - food was yummy. Lovely pub. Highly recommended 👌

28/05/2026: Best food experience on the island! Lasagne and chicken goujons were just what we needed for Sunday lunch

22/06/2026: Coffee is great but the guy working the morning we were there was a tool and a spoof of himself- the classic arrogant, unfriendly barista. I’d go to coffee werks instead- friendly and coffee is just as good without the sass and unnecessary attitude.

08/06/2026: Chai tea latte was goergeous. Deserts are different tasty but not sure all will like it. Workers are friendly and hepfull.

02/11/2025: I like McInerney's, it's a good shop. It's always clean, well-maintained and organised, and has friendly. The staff are friendly and helpful.

15/10/2025: Great food selection and great wines. Superb service.

23/05/2026: Great spot to stop. Amazing gym. Beautiful pub. Great value. Really not a bad thing to say about the place. Spacious rooms with high ceilings.

22/05/2026: Wedding, vacation, couples, events, just going to the pub: the Lady Gregory is a top tier facility with amazing staff, and gibs of history and tradition in the Gort area.

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 Try their Ferrero protein balls (amazing)

07/06/2026: In general not a bad place just a few issues for starters no cash accepted at reception so there go legal tendor!!!
