    Cáfe Temple Peace, love, and good food to nourish the body and soul is what I would describe the food at Cáfe Temple. I had the hot matcha green tea late made with coconut milk to drink upon arrival. It was perfectly sweet and had gorgeous latté art of a heart to make my picture look even better. It was brought up to our table up top and then our food came out shortly after. To eat I had the breakfast toast with veggies on top, called the veggie bite on the menu. It was vegan and labeled on the menu as vegan too. It was really good. I wasn't a huge fan of the red sauce to dip on the side though, I felt that it didn't match with the dish that well. Hot sauce would have been better on the side so I went down and asked for some, which they did! The soy butter on the veggie bite was so creamy and delicious! I can't say enough how much I appreciate restaurants that label their menu items as vegan, vegetarian, gluten free, etc. It makes it a lot easier to decide what to eat and shows that the restaurant cares about their customers. I also tried some of the vegan breakfast ciabatta. It had a little too much bread in proportion to the veggies in my opinion but it was still really good. Also I tried a few sips of one of the green juice but I can't remember which one it is called. It was really tasty and super fresh! I loved the jar and lid it was prepared in. I didn't try any of the pastries, but man did they have some delicious sounding ones! Some VEGAN too!! A+ to Café Temple with the variety of options they have on their menu that are all generally healthy for the body. Also, for the tremendously reasonable prices! Nothing is over priced and is worth how much you pay.

    Super cute spot. Everyone is friendly and the energy is very nice and bright. I tried the berry buckwheat pancakes (gluten free) and a dirty Chai latte. Very nice!

    Oh my best breakfast sandwich and the coffee is to die for! We also received tips on what to see as we travel.

    Jungle Cafe is a quirky, relaxed spot right in the heart of Galway's bustling streets, somehow…read moreseamlessly blending tropical inspiration with cozy European café energy. From the outside, colorful signage and lush plant accents give off an inviting, sunshine-meets-Galway vibe; inside, the décor leans into greenery and relaxed seating that feels friendly and laid-back. There's a full, lush garden area within the actual restaurant, complete with bamboo barriers, palm fronds, wicker seating, and plush couches. At around 11:30am on a Sunday, my party of eleven was looking for a cute brunch spot close o the Galway train station as we arrived for a day trip. Thanks to the courteous staff and some table rearrangement, they were able to seat our large party almost immediately, despite the space being almost full. The menu isn't too extensive, but has a variety of brunch dishes (there's a bit of a conundrum in that they serve brunch until 12:30pm, but they don't begin serving lunch after 1pm; I wonder what they do in the meantime?). They've essentially taken brunch classics and added their own fun, tropical twist, such as their "Mojo Rojo Toast" and Huevos Rancheros with a Brazilian twist. There's also a comprehensive drink menu, with coffee/tea, smoothies, and fresh-pressed juices. I began with their Double Espresso (€2.80), which came in a tiny, cute cup, with homemade sugar cubes on the side. I will say that as a group, we found their espresso overly acidic as compared to others we've sampled in Ireland, but it did the job in getting me sufficiently caffeinated. Others in my group enjoyed their Chai Lattes (€4.50)! For my main dish, I opted for their Cinnamon & Orange French Toast (€14), which consisted of two hearty slices of crusty bread soaked in custard, topped with creamy mascarpone, tangy pineapple salsa, and a crunchy oat crumble. This was a lovely variety of flavors and textures, and I love how the unsweetened mascarpone provided a richness to the dish without any sweetness. There was also fresh orange slices and passionfruit on the side, which provided a tropical touch! I also enjoyed the small drizzle of caramel syrup and powdered-sugar dusting over the top, which was a thoughtful touch of sweetness. My one note is that I do wish the toast itself were soaked a bit longer in the custard, as I found it a bit dry. According to my group, other standout dishes included the Overnight Oat Jar (€7.50), the Huevos Rancheros (€16), and the Smashed Avocado on Toast (€14.50). We truly enjoyed our time at Jungle Cafe; service was kind and efficient, the food was tasty, and it strikes that sweet spot between café casual and just a bit out-there. In general, Jungle Cafe sits in the moderate price range for Galway; while I usually wouldn't pay €14 for French toast, the creativity and fresh ingredients made it feel worth the spend when you want a fun, vibrant meal. It's the perfect place for brunch with friends or a casual lunch after exploring the city.

The space itself is small and cozy, with just a handful of tables and a private room, which gives it that intimate, tucked‑away feel. I'd 100% go back. They offer two specialty cocktails and a wine list, and while the cocktail selection is limited, the wines are unique and fantastic -- definitely worth exploring. The food was outstanding across the board. The monkfish scampi isn't what you might picture, but it's fantastic -- super crispy and full of flavor. And you have to get the bread: tomato focaccia or brown bread, then topped with the fennel, thyme, and maple butter were all unforgettable. The bavette steak was delicious, and the mashed potatoes were truly out of this world. The sea trout was incredibly fresh; just a heads‑up that the gremolata is spread over the whole dish, so it ends up almost poached in olive oil -- worth noting for anyone sensitive to that, but the flavor itself was excellent. Definitely end the night with the affogato and the shortbread cookies (chef's kiss). Who doesn't like to dunk their dessert? Highly recommend, would absolutely come back.

It reminds me of a country home by the water. The service was friendly and young. I got the plum salad, fallow deer, and roasted peach/caramel ice cream. The salad was spectacularly tasteful and fresh. I felt like the deer was a little too salty for my taste, but presentation was good. I was disappointed by the dessert. My ice cream was partially melted and the peaches were cold. I would give the environment/ambiance 5/5, service 5/5 and food 3.5/5. Overall 4/5.
