56 Central
Galway
07/09/2026: I had a great experience at 56 Central in Galway! The staff were really nice, friendly, and managed everything very well, even during the busy times. The restaurant was quite busy with tourists, but the service was still well organised.
The food was amazing overall. I had the Irish breakfast, and everything was delicious, although the bacon was a little overcooked for my taste. The burger, however, was absolutely amazing!
If you’re visiting Galway, I definitely recommend stopping by 56 Central. It’s a busy and popular spot for tourists, and for good reason. A must-visit when you’re in Galway! 🇮🇪🍔

The Seafood Bar @ Kirwan's
Galway
25/09/2026: Best food I have had after a week in Ireland
24/09/2026: I've been here twice. The first time I had just an oyster. The second time I came for a full dinner. I recommend making a reservation. I had the pleasure of tasting the best tuna in my life here. I highly recommend this place. You won't find a better fish restaurant in Golway. The waitress who served us was a bit scared. But she knows her job. The manager was very friendly.

Taaffes
Galway
14/10/2026: Trad music - less crowded than some of the other bars in Galway.
13/10/2026: Had lunch here which was yum and the portions were bigger than I expected. Can recommend the Latin quarter melt (not pictured) which was delish. We returned later in the day for some live music which was great. It is a small space so was very busy, but we had a drink at the bar while enjoying the traditional music. Much better experience than the other pub we tried down the road.

The Kings Head
Galway
27/09/2026: Enjoyed a quick drink at the bar on our first full day in Galway. Neat, lively atmosphere. Our bartender was great — she was super helpful & friendly. Comfy barstools were a plus!
26/09/2026: I cannot explain how exquisite is the experience here, especially when you are assisted by Miss Keeva. She is very professional and attentive to details. The 1/2 dozen of oysters is to die for and the main course Cod is one of the best thing i have ever had. Beautiful and clean place. Much love guys. Keep it up. I will return here

Darcy's Bar
Galway
07/10/2026: A truly typical Irish pub. Good music, regulars who seem to be part of the decor... the kind who look like they live there. Good drinks and excellent recommendations from the staff; I'd rather not mention the prices. I'll always remember the exceptional taste of the local whisky—a great experience with the Galway spirit, definitely worth returning for. Live music and a very local atmosphere.
27/09/2026: Ok... great for trad music. But honestly, a pub like this is about the people. Bert was exactly the bartender you expect in a local pub like Darcys. Alice (spelling) was a GREAT bartender. But she was also sweet, kind and genuinely friendly to a goofy American like me. She put up with my Jameson ginger's because of my heartburn 🤣 I'll return just because of that!!

John Keogh's
Galway
27/09/2026: Escape from the hustle and bustle of the touristed area of Quay St/Latin Quarter over the river to the WestEnd. Take a short walk to a fabulous meal at John Keogh’s gastropub — delicious food, comfortable interior, very attentive wait crew — Rachel is the BEST! We went back a second night knowing we’d be well fed and cared for!
22/09/2026: Very friendly service, perfect food, good drinks.
Worth a visit!
