The best restaurantsof irish in Galway

20/05/2026: This place has the best seafood chowder I've ever eaten (and I've eaten tons of chowder in my life). Mussels were fantastic, the service was amazing, and the price was very reasonable. The Google reviews have it right with this spot!

16/05/2026: A pub that's also a great restaurant! I started with a chowder, a soup made with fish, seafood, vegetables, and herbs, thickened with cream. I thoroughly enjoyed all the flavors. The traditional, soft Guinness bread with salted butter was a lovely accompaniment to the appetizers and then the main courses. To continue the delicious experience, I enjoyed a pot of mussels. Admittedly, they were much smaller than the Bouchot mussels I'm used to, which surprised me, but my taste buds were delighted by the flavors imparted by the sauce. It was delicious and very generous. A fruity, semi-dry cider on tap was also much appreciated. And for all this, the value for money is unbeatable, and the staff are always smiling. I highly recommend it.

15/05/2026: Typical pub. Everybody is friendly. Great whisky selection. Best Guinness I had so far. Music on point with folk irish songs. Clifden and Lowry's knows how to welcome people.

10/05/2026: Good traditional Irish food. Nice live music in the evening, of course. Be warned, it's not easy to get a table.

03/05/2026: What an Amazing Pub to have couple of Pints and Amazing Food. We Ordered Mild Chicken Curry with Basmati rice and Naan 😍😍😍😍; Prawns Scampi😍😍 ; Vegan Red Past😍😍; Chicken Goujons😍😍.

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 😉

30/04/2026: Gotta stop here for lunch. Incredible chowder.

29/04/2026: BEST chowder ever, whit a great service!

19/05/2026: Our experience was fantastic. Sarah looked after us and made our evening a really lovely one. The service was quick, the atmosphere felt relaxing yet elevated, and the portions were very generous. The food was delicious, and the chef was incredibly accommodating, kindly adjusting the seafood linguine for me by adding more prawns instead of clams. It was such a thoughtful touch. Dining here feels like being transported to a chic restaurant experience right in Gort. Easily the best restaurant in town.

17/05/2026: Great sausage rolls and the coffee is good.

13/04/2026: This was a great cottage to stay in. The location was quiet and tranquil. We enjoyed our stay. Brain and his wife were great hosts. I would recommend the stay. Great views of the bay from the front porch.

06/03/2026: Very enjoyable place to stay, open fires with comfortable seating. Breakfast staff were extremely friendly and efficient. It is out of town so a car is needed.

10/05/2026: They serve a great fish & chips. You can choose regular or large. Served with a very tasty salad , mushy peas & a geat tartar sauce. Very tasty light battered cod. Exceptional views across the bay to County Clare. Outside seating area. Service was fast & pleasant. Ate at lunchtime.

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!
