Town Cafe
Athenry
10/06/2025: I got a takeout lunch and was impressed by the friendly helpful server, how quickly it arrived and how delicious it was. It was just over €11. It’s just what I liked, not too much bread and a great balance of protein to vegetables. The soup was full of goodness and flavour (I bet they used a good stock).
04/05/2025: They had Gluten Free cake! Specified as being GF ingredients made in a non-GF kitchen. Staff were sound, accommodated kids with a high chair, they took our buggy off to the side somewhere, made it easy for us. Nice one.

Pat Cohan
Conga
06/07/2025: Super friendly staff, the food is a bit smaller than in other pubs, but tastier and still more than sufficient. Thank you very much.
30/06/2025: Firstly, best seafood chowder I’ve ever had and don’t get me started about the soda bread. Can’t recommend enough.
Is it possible to buy a loaf of the soda bread?

GATHER Restaurant
Tuam
05/05/2025: For our sons communion, we booked Gather Restaurant for catering, we had Lasagne, chicken and la king and lamb stew and potato gratin Salads and cold meat salads. & most delicious dessert. Apple crumble & Lemon Meringue
Absolutely everyone commented on the quality of the food and there was no waste, Absolutely nothing. Everyone had 2nds and some even had 3rds! And the next day everything was eaten!
I would highly highly recommend Siobhan and her wonderful team for catering.
Siobhan even made a special meal for our son for his special day. His favourite fish and chips!
26/04/2025: Lovely place for a treat, the brunch is always super in here. It is a teensy bit expensive maybe, especially the tea/coffees, but the food is so fresh and lovely and the staff are very nice. Thank you!

Brewery Lane
Ballinasloe
13/07/2025: A great spot in the heart of Ballinasloe, Brewery Lane combines the charm of a traditional Irish pub with the comfort of a casual restaurant. Conveniently located right in the town centre, it's easy to find and worth stopping by whether you're a local or just passing through.
The interior is warm and authentically Irish, with wooden details, a cosy atmosphere, and that unmistakable pub feel. There’s also a nice outdoor seating area at the back - perfect for relaxing on warmer days or enjoying a meal outside in a quieter setting.
The food is very good, with the beef steaks particularly worth mentioning - juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. A solid menu featuring authentic Irish cuisine at affordable prices makes this place a great value for money.
As a pub, it also delivers: a wide selection of drinks, TVs for catching the game, and friendly, helpful staff who make you feel welcome.
Whether you’re looking for a hearty dinner, a pint, or a relaxed evening with friends, Brewery Lane is a spot I’d happily recommend. A proper Irish experience - no frills, just good food and good vibes.
09/07/2025: Nice atmosphere in here. Varied menu. Generous portions. Food was average pub standard food so fine but not particularly notable.

Raheen Woods Hotel
Athenry
15/06/2025: Very friendly. Nice and relaxing.
23/03/2025: We stayed here for 2 nights for a wedding. Nice, well maintained hotel with great attentive staff who were always happy to help and answered the phone very quickly. Leisure facilities were good, clean and looked after, you need to wear a swim hat but these can be loaned from leisure reception or brought for 2.50 euro.
Only very minor gripes were that the shower in the room was a bit temperamental with the hot and cold and it wasn't that powerful. Also breakfast was pretty average, did the job but nothing to write home about. If it wasn't for these two points then it would have been 5 stars.

Pier Head
Kinvara
14/07/2025: Great location, lovely, considerate staff, good food. Big problems- the gent's lavatory stinks and need a deep clean (what does this say about the kitchens?); there is no accessible lavatory for a wheel chair, and the lady's is up a steep flight of stairs- impossible for my wife. Needs a major re-vamp.
06/07/2025: Fabulous meal. Fresh fresh fish. Great location

Moycarn Lodge
Ballinasloe
06/07/2025: Food is very good and service is very good which is hard get these days. Loads of parking and nice beside the water.
10/06/2025: Wow.
I had a 5/5 review on this spot for a few weeks till I returned last week.
So so disappointed. 0-5 now!!!
I hope no-one looked at my previous review. I'm disgusted!!!!!!
Partner asked for Caesar salad and....Lettuce turning brown......
I asked for Boneless Wings....
Big Lettuce STEM in the middle with no sauces. I seemingly should beg for them. Lettuce STEM can't be cleaned......
Soooo, in all....I will avoid as much as I can. I even emailed my complaint and heard nothing soo....
I've told you my experience so it's all up to you folks. I'll NEVER eat here again. TERRIBLE.
