23/03/2026: One of the best spots in Galway! Lovely staff and exceptional food! Make sure to grab their Ham and Cheese toastie!

21/03/2026: The chicken shawarma is one of the best meals I have ever had. So unbelievably tasty!

14/04/2026: The best restaurant of our road trip!!! It doesn't look like much from the outside, but honestly, we highly recommend it!!! The fish was of incredible quality!

14/04/2026: Nice place, typical fisherman's decor. Classic but tasty and very generous portions. The men's toilets outside smell terrible and give a bad first impression. But don't let that put you off. The Guinness Zero is nice and cold 😉

27/03/2026: What a lovely place, great atmosphere, everyone is enjoying themselves and the delicious food.

22/03/2026: We had a family gathering for Trish's "significant" birthday last Friday. What a brilliant night! The setting, the atmosphere, the service, the food...all top class. We had three children with us (ages 5 & 7) and Kamila made a special fuss over them making them feel very much at home and generating a very happy atmosphere around the table. A visit to this fabulous restaurant is always a treat but Friday night was extra special. Míle buíochas mór from all the Kavanaghs!

06/04/2026: I’m about to explode from how much food we ate but I couldn’t stop myself because it was just so good. Highly recommend!

05/04/2026: Great food , big portions , friendly service A real find in Galway

17/04/2026: Exceptional local seafood and in house brews.

11/04/2026: 2nd time here. The food is of the highest quality. The piece of fish given in the fish and chips option is so generous and it’s that generosity and the quality of the grub that makes this my favorite pub/restaurant in Ireland.

15/03/2026: Top class selection of Irish whiskey. As good as it gets really. Some very rare casks if you know what you’re looking for. The flights are decent too. Good selection of world whiskeys on offer as well. Clean, nicely decorated and spacious.

15/03/2026: Hosted a hen party crafty workshop here recently and the venue was brilliant, Daniel was most helpful with our set up process, so attentive and positive while serving all of our customers cocktails during the activity, and he even helped us clean up after. Totally unnecessary, we really appreciate it. Will definitely consider this venue again in future.

17/04/2026: Really friendly and helpful server. She offered suggestions and answered questions. Tasty food on small sharing plates. Really liked the arancini and leeks and dumplings and sweet potato hummus. Chips were good, but would be better with a fun sauce like the other dishes have. Many drink options for cocktails and wine.

15/04/2026: Delicious food, beautifully cooked and presented very well. We had dinner and found the staff very knowledgeable about the menu and confident in recommending a good wine pairing. The choice of complimentary still or sparking water is a nice touch that other restaurants could learn from. The bavette with pavé potato was perfectly cooked and had a delicious crust. Ceviche was very fresh although would have been nicer if the fish was thinly sliced rather than diced and the chilli could have been toned down a notch or two for my liking. Service overall was unobtrusive, efficient and considered. The view out to the working dock was interesting and added to the bustling atmosphere. I felt more attention is needed to table presentation however. Either the wood needs to be spotless with no off putting paw marks or stickiness or table clothes or nice place mats should be used. Overall impression was good and we felt it was good value for the standard of food served.

09/04/2026: I am not really sure about traditional irish but I don't think this is it. I had the seafood chowder and he had the monk fish. There was no real theme to the menu, some irish steaks, Thai food.... the inside is decorated worldly with no real irish theme. The tablecloths have Fleur De lis so I was a little stumped.

09/04/2026: Very odd place. Not any real theme to the cuisine or the restaurant. Had a few Irish chicken dishes, a couple Thai selections and a few Italian selections. Service was friendly but just so so. We entered at what should have been a busy dinner time and the place was dead. After ordering, I can understand why. Long wait to get food and there was literally no one else in the building when we ordered. Wife ordered 2 appetizers, fried brie and seafood chowder. Both were good but nothing special. I had the roasted Monk fish wrapped in Ham w/muscles and prawn. Should have been called shrimp instead, they were very small as were the muscles. It was OK but overcooked. Rubbery and chewy. The decor was very chaotic as well. Just random oddities like a picture of Lyndon B Johnson with some unrecognizable people, an Indian Lamp, table cloths with French flur-de-lis. Just nothing fit together. I would not recommend this establishment. Enter at your own risk. You've been warned.

20/03/2026: It's rare I write reviews but I had to on this occasion given how amazing everything was there last night at the house of plates. Went to house of plates last night for my birthday for a 3 course meal and I cannot praise the food and service enough. 10/10 experience. The food and flavours were sensational just mouth watering. The service was amazing and professional and friendly and there were no time delays with any of the dishes. Also loved the little complimentary starters that were given before our own starters came such as the bread with the beautiful oil and balsamic vinegar. Also the presentation of each dish was beautiful and thoughtfully put together. Thanks for an amazing experience we will be back <3 Páraic and Laura
