The Old Barracks Restaurant
Athenry
26/09/2025: Went for breakfast.full Irish was top notch
25/09/2025: Just got into town Galway. Our hotel is 30 minutes outside Galway. So we decided to walk through Athenry. A lot of ancient medieval walls and buildings. Quite fascinating!
We went to The Old Barracks for an appetizer and a Guinness.
We picked a great place. Casual and very friendly. Food apps were great.
Fun start to our two days in Galway.

Stone House Pizza Bar Athenry
Athenry
24/08/2025: Pizzeria located on the main street.
The waitresses are friendly and welcoming. It was busy in the evening, and the service was a bit slow.
The pizzas are good and generously topped.
The desserts are beautiful and delicious.
One small drawback: two small pizzas were served to us, even though we had ordered three large ones and one small one. They were billed as large ones, without much opportunity to explain...a shame.
16/08/2025: Absolutely one of the best pizzas I’ve had in the Galway area! Fresh ingredients and that special touch make their pizza's unforgettable.
Lovely atmosphere, super friendly staff, and right in the heart of Athenry with convenient parking nearby.
Can’t recommend it enough!
Important: make a reservation before you go. First time I tried without one they were fully booked.

The Nook
Athenry
03/09/2025: Absolutely amazing little gem. We stopped here on our way through and it was absolutely amazing. Very good value for money, amazing cakes, scones and exquisite crepes. The name tells it all, its small and cosy and has loads of character. The coffee was amazing and the service was absolutely top notch. Would 100% recommend to anyone passing through or staying in Athenry.
25/08/2025: We stopped here on the way back home from Westport and I have to say one of the best cafes I have been to. Coffee massively on point it was epic hot chocolate epic and a special request for an iced chocolate was not problem. The crepes were out of this world I had the streaker wife had the nookie and the kids had the ham and cheese all were amazing and the boss lady and locals in the cafe were so nice and welcoming. Definitely recommend stopping here if you're ever in athenry I know we will be back

Town Cafe
Athenry
26/08/2025: Best breakfast we have had in Ireland! Lovely cafe, very welcoming and friendly to both 2 and 4 legged guests. The breakfast was delicious and so big we don’t need to eat for the rest of the day. Really super cafe and highly recommended.
10/06/2025: I got a takeout lunch and was impressed by the friendly helpful server, how quickly it arrived and how delicious it was. It was just over €11. It’s just what I liked, not too much bread and a great balance of protein to vegetables. The soup was full of goodness and flavour (I bet they used a good stock).

Raheen Woods Hotel
Athenry
21/07/2025: Beautiful hotel! The room was comfortable and clean, the staff was welcoming and very hospitable, and the food at the on-site restaurant was great. It is a bit isolated, but if you're staying for a night or two, it's absolutely perfect.
Plus, many of the rooms have a balcony - a very nice touch!
21/07/2025: Beautiful hotel. Spacious room, lovely setting. Easy check in. Friendly staff. Super clean, even the tv remote was in a plastic protector!! Used the leisure centre which was relaxing. Evening meal was gorgeous. Lovely spacious areas to sit and relax on all floors. Can not fault our stay.

La Pause Dessert
Athenry
03/07/2025: Just had the tastiest Hazelnut latte from Le Pause Dessert. Wish I had time to sample some of the lovely food that was on display but had to review the minute I got home because of the beautiful Coffee I got.
29/06/2025: This is coming from an Athenry local. This is the best pastry shop in Athenry, period. I find it incredibly difficult to walk by the store without actually getting in to grab something.

New Park Hotel Bistro
Athenry
16/07/2025: Would give 4 and a half stars but can't. Food was lovely got chicken wings and duck. Massive portions and lovely food. Only complaint is mashed potato was slightly cold and lumpy.
20/04/2025: Restaurant:
On arrival the dinning room was cold.
Food was the worst I'd ever eaten
The duck had fat layer of skin like a sponge slightly uncooked and the meat was tough like liver and tasteless ,chips over cooked.
They even managed to get a desert wrong in the kitchen
It was my first time eaten here and I only live few miles away
The service was slow and poor
Even after complaining we were charged full price with no apology from the chef or management.

Supermac's
Athenry
24/06/2025: Very quick service. Staff were friendly. I was actually really happy with how quick the food was ready.
03/05/2025: Had the worst extremely super salty snack box meal in Athenry supermacs. It was so salty that the food was almost bitter. Supermacs was one of my favorite go to place after a night out, never had a bad tasting like today. Please try to improve, don't make people to hate supermacs.

Kasturi
Athenry
20/06/2025: Absolutely terrible experience.
We walked in at 9:55 PM — the restaurant clearly states online and on the door that it closes at 11 PM. There were only two people dining, so it wasn’t busy. We were asked if we had a reservation (strange, considering the place was nearly empty), and when we said no, the man at the counter tutted, checked his phone, and spoke in another language to a colleague — clearly about us, and not politely.
He then informed us the kitchen was closed, even though the other diners were just being served their mains. The attitude from the staff was absolutely appalling — dismissive, rude, and unwelcoming.
Do yourself a favor and spend your money somewhere it’s actually appreciated. With customer service like this, I doubt they’ll stay open much longer. My advice is change your opening times and perhaps staff need a refresher in hospitality customer service.
19/05/2025: Had a wonderful dinner tonight and received excellent service from Sam and the staff. Dinner was served promptly, preceded by tasty appetizers, the food was piping hot and absolutely delicious. Sadly they are not opening a restaurant in my home town in Canada. I’ll have to return.
