Eyre Square Centre
Shopping mall
👍👍 It took me over 10 visits to Galway to find this place. Not that it is hidden (it is so close to main train and bus stations), I simply never thought that common shopping center can have some magic. And this one does. Order meal at Subway or coffee at Costa and sit under ancient walls - priceless. N...

👍👍 The whiskey bar was amazing, we came for one whiskey and stayed for 10 because of Rory the barkeeper! Rory could tell us a story about each whiskey we tried. The music was of high quality. The drinks were amazing. Unfortunately the food was the worst of our trip, so avoid that at all cost! The nacho...

😠 Almost beyond belief.... we had an absolutely shocking experience with Monroes on Saturday night. We reserved an area for 20 odd people for my sister's hen on Saturday night but were advised on Monday last that the area would be an outdoor and not an indoor area. On Saturday, we asked in advance i...

McSwiggans Steak + Seafood Restaurant
Irish restaurant
😐 Disappointed to be honest, I've heard good things and It was just an ok dinner. The service was good but we felt the food quality wasn't really worth the prices. All my friends said they'd had cheaper and better food in Galway. I will go again as I've heard good things and so it may have just been...
