I loved the outdoor seating that allows you to take in the air, the narrow streetways, the buildings that have stood here for centuries. While we could only do outdoor seating at the time due to the COVID-19 lockdown measures, this turned out to be quite the good fortune. Where we sat was a nice spot to see the various people walking down the street, engage in conversation, all the while enjoying a cafe Americano and some tasty baked goods like brownies and shortbread with chocolate on top. If you know where to walk from the Eyre Square, it's a great find, moderately priced, and very tasty eats. Hopefully, the next time I can have some of the hot dishes they also offer when we return to Galway.

Was roaming around the Saturday market and discovered this cafe nearby. Ordered a vegetarian…read morebreakfast platter (+ avocado) and a Chai latte (with oat milk since they were out of soy). Both were excellent and very filling. The cafe is located just off the busy street and has some some outdoor seating. The window seating is great for people-watching. They have both books and newspapers as decorations/available for reading around the cafe. There's also two small restrooms (men and women, but they're individual rooms anyways). The staff were nice and the place was very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Every dish we ordered was good: oysters with rhubarb salsa; sweet potatoes/split pea dip with pita; tamarind beef skewers; mushroom dumplings; beet salad and the amazing ceviche. All are small plates perfect for sharing. Everything was excellent though the dumplings were under spiced. One fun note: they sell glasses of mystery wine, high quality wine not listed on the menu and you guess what it is. We had a few! Padraic o conaire, the Irish author that Galway likes to talk about, lived where the restaurant is based now. The rooms are filled with plants and photos; as well as jars of liquor being infused for future cocktails. Reservations are mandatory but not too hard to get in the bar. We compared menus and actually preferred the bar menu. It's pricey but a great evening

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.

Instead it was basically a cheese pizza. Enjoyed the boisterous dining area.

I stopped in while visiting Galway, and I now fully understand why the locals love it. The crust was perfectly crisp on the outside with that ideal chew in the center. The ingredients tasted incredibly fresh, and the flavor combinations were bold without being overcomplicated. You can tell they care about quality. The atmosphere was relaxed and fun -- energetic but not chaotic -- and the staff were friendly and efficient. It felt like a local favorite that also welcomes travelers with open arms. In a country known for hearty stews and pints of Guinness, finding pizza this good was a surprise highlight of my trip. If you're in Galway, don't skip it. Trust me.

The irony of this restaurant leaves a bad taste in your mouth. To be fair, the food was good, but…read morethe wastefulness was embarrassing. Neo chooses to serve food in paper takeaway containers, even though it's a sit-down restaurant. And ceramic bowls just sit unused on the table. The waiter said the purpose of the containers is to mimic "Asian street food," but the only thing it mimics is the giant pile of trash 100 meters from the restaurant. Yeah, it's ironic that Neo chooses to use takeaway containers because Galway's monthly trash pile rots on a dock not far from the restaurant. A note to the managers: there exist reusable ceramic "Asian takeaway" containers that could give you a similar culinary authenticity. Doing this would not only add to the customer's experience, but also presumably cut down expenses long-term. Consider alternatives, because, upon visiting your restaurant, your future customers might also do so.

Things like fried egg, chips, rashers, bangers, sausages, fried fish, black and white pudding, bacon, and ham seemed to be a part of every meal. When we arrived in Galway, we decided to find something a little lighter/healthier, so we were thrilled when our search yielded the TGO Falafel Bar. A cute little vegan takeout place, that does a brisk business. The service was top notch, and the open kitchen allowed us to creepily watch as the food was being prepared. I liked that I watched them cut the falafel balls in half, so that even though my wrap had two balls, they were distributed evenly throughout. I was also impressed with the amount of food that was shoved into our wraps/pitas. The pita seemed to fall apart a bit from the liquid, so wrap is definitely the easier one to eat on the go, while the pita gets you more food for only an extra euro or so. If we lived here, this is where we would get most of our meals from.
