Just by looking at the menu and the way the food is served you can tell that the owners take pride in what they do. I have a nice piece of leek quiche with a side salad and a piece of their homemade brown bread. It was great and I wish I had the chance to try more. Warp technology should be real so that I could head over to Cong on a daily basis for a lovely lunch. Visiting Cong? Do consider this place for lunch. It will make you happy.

Good atmosphere and the staff was very nice. 5/5 - quiche with goat cheese, spinach & potato. It paired perfectly with the salad which was a mix of leafy greens, chickpea salad, and pickled beets. All amazing but the beets were the best I've ever had. Flat white was good too! 5/5 - pancakes, streaky bacon, & maple syrup. My husband ordered this, it was really good. 6/5 - lemon blueberry muffin & plain croissant. We got this take away for a snack later. I'm sad I didn't try to there because it was amazing and I would have ordered more. They really know what they are doing with the pastries.

Lou herself greeted us with a big smile and some menus to peruse. They have a really great selection, with daily specials to boot. I went for the BLT which comes with a cup of soup, butternut squash in this instance. I also got a flat white coffee. The BLT was lovely. The bacon was crispy and I could get that smokey taste. It came with a handful of crisps. The cup of soup was a really nice accompaniment. I wish I had of left room for cake because they looked lovely. Ginger Lou's is a must, great food and great service. Definitely worth stopping by for food and to support a fantastic local business. Tip: They have free WiFi. Can this place get any better.

Our family of four were able to eat for less than 35 euro total. The staff were courteous and prompt and the ambiance is quaint. The cafe seemed to be a spot where locals frequent.

We sipped our coffee and ate bacon, eggs, French toast, salad, baked beans, croissant, and veggies while watching a light rain shower out the windows. What a wonderful cafe! We highly recommend!

As someone who genuinely enjoys the taste of coffee this latte was the best one I had on my trip to Ireland!

I highly recommend if you're a coffee lover in Galway!

Even though the listing here on yelp says breakfast and lunch, this is also a dinner restaurant. Shane took our reservation for 6 o'clock after checking the books and seeing that they had about 20 names down already. We shared an appetizer-sized portion of the calamari, and most of us agreed that we wished we had ordered it for our entrée because it was outstanding. The waiter said the secret is that it is never frozen, and I can only say that I've never tasted calamari that tender and flavorful, so perhaps he's right. Don't get me wrong: each of our entrées was delicious, but that calamari!... Their menu list their local suppliers, which must another secret to outstanding food. We also shared two desserts among the six of us: an Irish cream cheese cake and a chocolate tart. Both came on plates adorned with two fruit gastrics and a tiny dish of delicious vanilla ice cream; the desserts themselves were excellent.
