The best restaurantsof irish in Galway

16/05/2026: Ideal for enjoying a coffee and pastries. Plenty of seating available.

07/04/2026: Terrible experience. The manager is rude, don't look at customer faces and don't give any kind of experience. Never going back there, specially at salthill. There's plenty of other coffee stores to go. Also the owner, Michelle, is not a friendly person at all. Horrible coffee, dirty coffee machine, steamer completely filthy. Bad experience.

20/05/2026: Absolutely fantastic coffee, staff were so friendly and accommodating. Definitely a must go spot for a lovely cuppa! Outdoor seating available to enjoy the lovely day that was in it! Will be back.

14/05/2026: Went last week, god awful! Dining experience lies somewhere between stubbing your pinkie and being executed by a guillotine. Chef with anger issues and terrified waiters is what defines this place.

16/05/2026: Delicious lunch was had- Roast beef and Guinness stew. Both were very delicious and good sized. Service was friendly and efficient.

06/05/2026: Maybe we attended on an off night, but I kind of doubt it. It was nearly dead at 6.30 pm on a Tuesday and they were out of Guinness, which should have been enough warning to leave. We stayed and ordered. The sea bass and Heineken was good, but my wife's sirloin steak was tough, overcooked and lacked much flavor. That absolutely ruined it for us. I don't recommend the place overall.

28/11/2025: Has obviously changed with new owners but not for the better. Restaurant size is reduced for the inclusion of a bakers shop. Walls are now bare. The menu and choice has somewhat shrunk. Sorry not changed for the better. Left feeling disappointed that the must have breakfast in Donegal town is no more. NOW PERMANENTLY CLOSED.

09/10/2025: Great food and atmosphere at Dock 84! 🍴☕️ We stopped into Dock 84 while in Donegal Town and had a really enjoyable experience. The place has a relaxed, modern vibe with plenty of space to sit back and enjoy a meal. Staff were friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome right away. 😊 I ordered the grilled chicken burger 🍔🐔 and it was excellent — the chicken was juicy and perfectly cooked, with fresh toppings and a soft bun that held everything together nicely. It was filling without being too heavy, and you could tell the ingredients were fresh. My wife went for the waffle with a spread of Nutella 🧇🍫 and it was a real treat. The waffle was light and fluffy with just the right crisp on the outside, and the Nutella made it indulgent without being over the top. A perfect sweet option to balance out my savory choice. The second time we went we had egg shakshuka and Tikka wrap which was good again as usual One of the highlights here is that Dock 84 has its own bakery products 🥐🍞, and they are absolute delights — fresh, tasty, and clearly made with care. It’s a lovely bonus alongside the main menu. Do note that there’s usually a wait time of around 15 minutes ⏳ throughout the day, but honestly, the food and atmosphere make it worth it. For convenience, there’s a car park directly in front of the café 🚗, though it is a paid one 💳, so keep that in mind if you’re driving in. Service was quick once seated, prices were fair 💶, and the location is ideal if you’re exploring Donegal Town 🏞️. Whether you’re after a hearty bite or something sweet, Dock 84 is a spot worth visiting. We’ll definitely be back the next time we’re in town! 🙌

22/01/2026: The owner’s behavior was beyond inappropriate. After I briefly used the restroom, I was confronted about forgetting to flush — fine, human error — but it escalated into being scolded about needing to *wash the sink* because I used hand sanitizer and “you don’t leave a sink that way.” I wish that were satire. What pushed it into absurd territory was the owner then **following me outside onto the street** to continue berating me. For context, this was in Ireland, where public bathrooms regularly survive far worse than a missed flush, and I was a young tourist who had literally just stopped in looking for the Wi-Fi password. That level of hostility says everything about this establishment’s culture. If you’re looking for genuine warmth, fair prices, and an actually wholesome experience, go somewhere authentic instead. Keep your “positive energy” far away from this negative environment — the branding may say serene indication, but the attitude screams bitter.

16/05/2026: Hugo is a legend! Great food, great pints, exceptional service 🙌

08/05/2026: A very nice restaurant; the food was delicious and beautifully presented – simply divine. The service was very friendly and attentive. The manager offered me a complimentary glass of excellent wine. It was a worthwhile experience; I highly recommend it.

28/05/2026: Great supermacs , great spot for people watching after a night out

07/05/2026: I can’t tell you the number of times I’ve been to this Supermacs drunk at 2am and the service is exceptional every single time. Despite how many people are here, the employees are incredibly efficient and kind, and I always get my food very quickly. I cannot recommend this place enough. Everyone who works here is the goat, and I appreciate how much they have fed me on nights out. This place is infinitely better than M*donalds.

03/04/2026: Came back here for the sake of nostalgia (I came here often as a student). Was pleased to find out that the chilli beef udon stir fry was just as amazing as I remember it to be lol xD Patient and friendly staff who helped my in-laws with their order. Highly recommend.

23/03/2026: Had a Very Good Cajun Chicken Quesadilla at MixGreens. Recommended Quality Service.

09/04/2026: I am commenting specifically on the selection of local whiskey and spirits. They have a very large one, including lots of mini bottles or good Irish whiskey. They let you try a bunch or local whiskey and gin for free, along with some competent explanations. Overall, I'm very impressed with this store and will definitely be coming again the next time I'm in Ireland.

05/04/2026: What a great place with lots of yummy irish brands and kind workers

12/04/2026: The steak is absolutely amazing! Perfectly cooked and seasoned,and the onion ring were phenomenal!

08/03/2026: DIRE! Food was awful. Inedible rubbish !

11/05/2026: Chips reheated left over from previous orders but only small hard pieces I didn't enjoy, chicken tasted old. Worst I ever had. Can of coke was good. Not recommending anymore.

07/05/2026: Waited 2 hrs for delivery, I live 15 mins away. Food was really not good

23/03/2026: Food to die for here so nice and it's reasonable I go chipper places and I'd still come back here best chipper around keep up the good work staff sound U can't beat it here come all see for Ur self just don't take my word for it

08/03/2026: Good, friendly service and the food was good

07/05/2026: We’ve been ordering food from here for quite a long time and have never experienced such poor behaviour before. Today’s behaviour was pathetic. I would be dropping a mail to mention clearly! Thanks

03/05/2026: Food was nice, ordered chips with curry cheese and garlic but the garlic came on the side unlike other Supermac's I've been to.

27/03/2026: The Supermacs website states that this branch has a SuperSubs outlet. It doesn't. Please update the website to reflect this that someone else doesn't waste their time going there. I can't eat any of the chips or burgers on offer because they have milk and soya in them.

30/01/2026: The food is honestly delicious. What I liked most about this place is how incredibly friendly the staff are, starting from the warm welcome at the till. In particular, there is a tall gentleman who wears glasses i believe he is the manager. I noticed how warmly he welcomes customers and how he is on top of everything. Truly the right person in the right position
