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.

04/09/2025: Great place! The food is delicious and well prepared, and the coffee is excellent. The staff are very friendly and provide outstanding service. Highly recommend visiting! 👌
01/07/2025: 2yrs ago I visited Weavers and had scone&coffee and as I had eaten dinner there 3 times in few months and wasn't impressed, I decided never again.... So two years later...On end june 2025, myself and a friend called in for dinner and the place looked lovely and more cosy, the staff were very friendly, efficient and helpful as they always are and the food was delicious. I had beef stroganoff with rice&chips and my friend had beef with gravy, chips&salad. (Chips here are moreish) Both dinners were Yum! We then ordered chocolate cake,icecream,cream and tiramisu,icecream,cream and coffee. Both again were delicious. Really delighted that Weavers have upped their game and I will be meeting more friends there soon.

Abbeyglen Castle Hotel
Clifden
19/09/2025: Wish we could have stayed longer. It was so charming, restful, and had everything we needed. Even though outside was sideways raining, it was perfectly cozy and welcoming inside! Note that it's very close to town,a short walk or drive, its right on Sky Road for easy access. The owner comes out at 630p and serves prosecco and gives an oral history of the place while a pianist plays. Really special.
22/08/2025: We had the best time at this castle. We only stayed a night as we were just passing through and it was a true highlight of the trip. The service was incredible, especially the lovely bartenders. Food was very good, room was comfortable and welcome night was so fun!

Ardagh
09/08/2025: Don't let the rather bland exterior fool you as behind the facade is a 5 star family run hotel and restaurant serving some of the finest food I have tasted. Lovely to relax in the Green room with lovely views after your meal. Pet friendly a real deal maker!!
08/08/2025: A very nice little hotel with tastefully furnished rooms, comfortable beds, newly renovated, a modern bathroom, a good breakfast buffet (you can order an extra breakfast), excellent taste, and everything prepared with love. Highly recommended.

Donnelly's
Bearna
30/09/2025: Awesome Irish food.
You need to stop here!
Homemade and from scratch (as a Chef by trade, I appreciate fresh food)
I never had a combination of chicken, black pudding, and bacon.
Sauces are not starchy like so many other restaurants in the UK.
We highly recommend the king of pies if you like a hardy homemade dish.
Loved the fact that the mashed peas are fresh and do not come from a can.
The staff were so helpful and super friendly.
A must stop.
29/09/2025: A truly wonderful experience! We enjoyed a lovely Sunday evening with amazing seafood, live traditional music with a warm welcome from the friendly staff. We ordered the seafood sharing platter, seafood tacos & chowder. The fish was of a high quality & so tasty!!! We will definitely return.

Oh yes – lovely people who take good care of the valuables you've accidentally left behind! A huge thank you to the whole team!
15/09/2025: Very friendly and welcoming owners. We were allowed to sleep in the parking lot with our RV. Unfortunately, the food wasn't particularly good. I would have given them 5 stars for their friendliness.
