The best restaurantsof irish in Galway

04/01/2026: Best food, best burger you can get in Ireland. Matthew is a top bloke and serves you well every time

02/01/2026: Tasty Burger and Chips in the West. Our waiter Matthew was very attentive. A must.

03/12/2025: The steak for 2 was fabulous, best food and price point in Galway. Can't wait to go back!

02/12/2025: Three friends and myself had dinner on a wet Monday eve. Food and wine excellent.

04/01/2026: We ended up here looking for vegan breakfast options. The menu is a bit confusing at first: it states that changes are not possible, but the friendly waiter then told us that almost everything can be prepared vegan. The breakfast burrito and sandwiches are highly recommended. Arrive early or be prepared to wait!

03/01/2026: Very very large breakfast An option for a mini breakfast would be welcome. Staff helpful, friendly and informative on the food. Queue on arrival, seated within 5 mins. Quick service and nobody hovering waiting on you to leave. Highly recommended.

03/01/2026: Great vegan food served by very nice people.

30/12/2025: A very, very nice place. Great food. Great atmosphere with fairy lights and plants. The service was very friendly despite the large number of guests. It was really great. I think it would be better to have one more staff member during peak hours or when the city is busier.

03/01/2026: Sooooo good food, and friendly staff 😍 Highly recommend

29/12/2025: 56 Central is one of my favourite spots in Galway. I always bring my friends and family here when we're out and stuck for somewhere to eat. It's great for breakfast or lunch, loads of great options. On this particular day I went for the pancakes, they were lovely. The pancakes were fluffy, and with the berries and mascarpone it was a perfect combination that wasn't too sweet. My dad went for the breakfast brioche, he's not very descriptive, but he said it was good, which is high praise coming from him. The interior is clean and comfortable, the staff are friendly and attentive, the food is always delicious. Couldn't recommend this place enough!

05/01/2026: The chowder (fish soup) was so delicious🤤 as was the Irish coffee. And the staff is so friendly! I highly recommend this place.

04/01/2026: Called in for a few pints on a Sunday afternoon during our trip to Galway, the bar was busy but service was quick and the staff were very friendly. Really good pint of stout and great atmosphere.

13/01/2026: Awful pint of Guinness. Couldn’t finish it.

18/12/2025: Very friendly staff. Food was lovely. Will definetly be going back again.

20/01/2026: Always the best in Galway.. Killian a great manager, hands on, smart and hard working.

16/01/2026: Best seafood in Galway. The Tuna steak is great.

30/12/2025: Everything is delicious, original dishes, a spectacular coffee offering and very professional service.

01/11/2025: Enjoyed a wonderful lunch today in the company of other travelers in this exciting city of Galway. It was a nice surprise to stumble upon a restaurant that catered to my dietary needs. The menu wasn't overwhelming and there was a nice variety of choices to choose from. I ordered the Terryland Reuben with a vegan cheese which was VERY good and afterwards enjoyed a complimentary slice of vegan cake that was absolutely lovely. The portions were perfect! I actually left with the cake in a take out container. If you're looking for a quaint and affordable restaurant to enjoy a vegan meal, this is the place!

09/09/2025: The Skeff is part of the The Skeffington Arms Hotel. Food was very good. The Seafood Chowder and a couple of (non!) Stout beers from other parts of Ireland were a welcomed change of pace. IPA's, actually. One from Letterkenny, and the other from Kill, County Kildare. Other than the service being just a tad slow, it was (overall) very good. And the live music was magical this night. Okay...Not exactly magical, but covers from bands/artists that everyone knows, sung by a group of a youngish band of 3 called The Groev. They did a great job, actually.

09/09/2025: Authentic pub with fantastic food! Service was rather mediocre.

01/01/2026: The food, mood, service, and everything else you'd expect for a fine dining establishment was there. But nothing blew my socks off and it was a bit on the pricey side. The most noticeable thing for me was the service because everyone was so friendly and accommodating for me as I brought my 6 and 8 year kids to dinner. The chef spent a few minutes at each able to chat with the guests too. This is a great thing but also maybe not so great if it is more memorable than the food.

24/11/2025: Amazing expierence. Highly recomend.

31/12/2025: Delicious seafood. Caters to gluten free/ celiac. Highly recommend swapping the fries to mash. Amazing service

27/12/2025: Delicious and fresh seafood selections and wonderfully decorated in a whimsical nautical style!

25/01/2026: Had dinner with 5 friends excellent staff and food was priced fairly would recommend

20/01/2026: Recently visited with my family, outstanding Cod and one of the most yummy Chowders I’ve ever eaten, very helpful and nice staff

12/12/2025: The barman on the left was a star!
