They also served our teas / coffees and cakes in mismatched cups and plates which might drive some people crazy but I loved it. Great selection of cakes. We loved the Bakewell and apple tarts. Really fresh. They do hot chocolate but as the day was rather warm, I tried one of their smoothies. Very refreshing.

On both occasions I've been blessed by beating the crowds and leaving just as they come in. There's a main road that goes through this village so tour busses tend to stop here. I had the spaghetti which came with a side of Parmesan, absolutely divine. I love my salt, but I'm an American so I put salt on everything lol! Without the added salt you can taste the freshness of the tomatoes and herbs. They also sell a variety of handcrafted and very delicious pastries. You will love that you stopped by. Free WiFi on premises, clean bathrooms and not to mention the adorable, quaint and homey feel inside the cafe. Much love spread here.

So we stopped for breakfast. I had my doubts because we had been previously disappointed elsewhere in Ireland, but we ordered the Eggs Benedict. AMAZING. One of the best I've had, and I'm from NY. I also ordered a chai latte with oat milk. AMAZING. Also one of the best I've had - a close 2nd to Art Cafe in Nyack NY. Accompanied by a fruit scone (which means raisin). Also one of the best I'd had. We were so happy with our entire breakfast experience that we pined wherever else we traveled.. longing for ISHKA.

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!

Good pre-fab carvery selection of hot foods; for carnivores like me - and they also have vegetarian options. Full bar selection available at the bar, or from the cafe-food line. Food prices are reasonable, but the drink orices can skyrocket quickly. $$$. Watch your bar tab; these drinks are a little pricier than at most pubs. Food is good though!

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.

The American pancakes were a nice morning breakfast for my husband that wasn't super filling and the wrap I had was fresh and the side salad had a good dressing on it.

The room was well updated and cozy. Each morning we had full complimentary breakfast across the street at the Barracks restaurant that was included with our room. Scott runs a very hospitable business and his passion for customer service shows through his staff. Michael was awesome, not only was he the one received us at 7pm, checked us in and showed us our room, he was also working each morning in the restaurant and helped us plan our daily journeys around the Galway area. Everyone we met were very attentive , kind and helpful. Next door to the Lodge, The Stone House Pizza had awesome food as well and is the one place we found that serves a true cocktail. I highly recommend staying at the Lodge at The Old Barracks to anyone who likes a local vibe and hospitality. After our fantastic experience I would never consider staying anywhere else when visiting the Galway area.
