They moved back to their original place and it's so much nicer . The Ambiance is back. I still miss the fresh fries the used to have but the chowder is back on point too. Also enjoy Olivia our usual server as well. read more

An attempt at dinner with two kids, not a good choice for food or location with kids. Very loud and overstimulating even for adults. Limited table service and very slow. Perhaps they were busier than two ladies could handle. Ordered food with our non-alcoholic beverage to hopefully save time. Potato skins WITHOUT onions and food for the kids were requested to come first, entrees after. We waited an hour for food and nearly left, then potato skins WITH nasty green onions arrived and so did everything else. Probably a good thing everything came so my son and husband could start scarfing. My daughter passed the point of being reasonable for anything but fries, so I had to carry her around while the stuff was packed up. Just as well, my Thai salad was a horrible disappointment with chicken as dry as jerky, slimy spring lettuce, limited and bland peanut sauce. I ate 3 bites and lost my appetite. I tried eating the onion laden potato skins, but they were so flavorless that salt couldn't even perk them up. I should have had fish& chips I guess, it's the only thing I remembered they did well before they moved twice. Oh and my son and I went to the bathroom to wash our hands before dinner. The rage music coming from the kitchen was so loud that we couldn't hear each other at the sink. The sink was nearly overflowing and paper towels were haphazardly sitting on the edge of the counter instead of the dispenser. Pretty sure I dried our hands on dirty towels. I didn't bother to really complain, the staff seemed oblivious to any needs or cared to inquire when I declined a box (while stating the salad was horrible). Plus I wasn't interested in waiting for a remake, whatsoever. I couldn't wait to get out of there for my own sanity; and my kids did remarkable considering the very loud environment and long wait. We won't be back, and we remembered why we never made it a point to dine there. read more

Super crowded when I went in. But for it being a full house the whole time staff was great and friendly. Took a bit of time to get my food, but again full house. Fish was great! Good sized pieces for the price and fresh. read more

We went to lunch there. We ordered the fish and chips along with a salad. The portions were generous, and we were impressed with the fish and chips. Our server was very friendly and attentive and kept checking on us and refilling our water. I enjoyed the pub atmosphere. If it were later in the day I would have probably stayed for a few pints of beer. read more

I haven't been to Gallagher's before, but my 96-year-old Dad loves them. I was recently visiting, and I said, "how about Gallagher's for lunch?" He said, "OK!" I ordered via DoorDash, and went down to pick up the food. I really like their restaurant in the old Eagle house. It just gives oFf the vibe of a good old-fashioned Irish pub. I understand it's recently been remodeled, and it looks awesome. Everybody was friendly. I picked up the food and brought it home. I ordered the two-piece fish and chips, and a cup of clam chowder for each of us,. The clam chowder was a big cup, and it was rich and creamy. Lots of clams. Even though I ordered the two pieces of fish and chips, we got an order with three in them. The fish was flaky and tender, the breading was wonderful. Not greasy at all. And the fries were just absolutely the perfect texture. The tartar sauce was amazing It also came with a side of coleslaw, which was crunchy and delicious. I finished my meal, and I was stuffed. My dad had a little bit left over, and he said it reheated very well. The price is a little bit on the higher end, but for all that you get, quantity and quality, it's well worth it. Thanks for a great meal. read more

We were recommended this place by the nice gift shop worker at Sequoia Park Zoo. The fish and chips were delicious and the clam chowder was very tasty as well! The only con was that the service was a little slow and it took forever for our food to come out. There were also a lot of flies in the restaurant and the tables were sticky as well. However, the food was a plus! read more

Gallagher's - Fish Fry Combo (2 cod, 3 prawn) - Irish Near Me - Eureka, California

As I was driving towards Eureka I couldn't find anything that was appealing for my taste. I decided to check Irish pub Gallagher. I looked at the reviews and they were kinda low..... . So I was a bit confused. Let me fast forward, don't read bad reviews. They are far from reality. When I got the pub, I was immediately greeted and seated. I love old school interiors and it also looks clean and neat from a customer chair. I ordered fish and chips and NY steak and also beer battered fried pickle! ( wow!) Fish and chips dish was solid good. Something you can reminiscing from NY or Boston Irish pubs! Also, it comes with 3 pieces of fish rather than ( inflation style 2 pieces)! Steak was ok, I had better but for that price I was happy! Now, fried pickles was something out this world! I am still craving for that! Really tasty and well made. Beer was good! Irish Red Ale is standard with fish and chips! Service was very friendly and fast! I think bunch of haters and competitors are leaving 1 star reviews here so I wouldn't take them seriously. If I am back to Eureka I would definitely come back to Gallaghers read more

Gallagher's is a great place for lunch or dinner! The restaurant has warm interior style and decently comfortable chairs. They have really great waitstaff too, they make the experience so much more pleasant. My favorite dishes here so far are the fish and chips, the shepherds pie and their ribeye steak! The chocolate mousse is also amazing and my husband favors the banana pudding. This place has been a big hit with family too when they visit. read more

Wife and I had dinner Saturday May 23 at Gallagher's. When we arrived we got what appeared to be the last empty table. The decor was marvelous. We arrived at 5:45 and our food order arrived at about 7pm. There was no warning our food order would be late until at least 20 minutes after we ordered. Then we were told the kitchen was a little behind, and about every 10 minutes after that we were told our food would arrive soon. When the food arrived my mash potatoes were cold at the center. When the waitress checked back with about whether we liked our food I told her it was good but my potatoes were cold. Of course the waitress apologized. The restaurant reduced the cost of my entree by 20%. Although the kitchen got behind I believe this was actually a failure of management. If the kitchen was understaffed they knew it and should have reduced the number of tables being served, or spaced out seating more customers until the kitchen caught up. I also noticed that as tables turned over newly seated customers were warned the kitchen was behind, but never told how far behind. I hope Gallagher's improves. read more

Strolling around when we stumbled in here. Upon entering has the makings of a real Irish Pub. Quickly greeted and seated. Smithwicks on tap so knew we had the right place. Ordered a Rueben and the Fish and chips. Corned beef used in the Rueben was to die for. Sandwich over the top good. Fish was pacific cod and fried perfectly. Malt vinegar brought out all the flavor and chips were perfect. Finished it off with one of the best Irish Bread pudding desserts we've had this side of the pond! Surrounded by a moat of heavenly caramel sauce. Fabulous lunch. Reasonably priced and great service from Kaiden! #stevensleavin! read more

I went here because I heard they had good Rueben's. Sadly the night I went they had run out of rye, so I settled for a Philly cheesesteak. It was tasty, especially with the beer cheese. Service was great I especially liked the Irish themed live music. read more

Not sure if I've Yelped here before but I've certainly eaten here several times. We've stayed in the rooms above also. The place was full, a hardy loud crowd. We found our favorite seats at the bar. My wife had the portobello sandwich of course. Now I'm a big fan of the Ruben...or the fish and chips...so I'll have the...shrimp and creamy grits! So glad I did. From our seats we can get a grand view of the place, front seat service from the barkeep and watching the cooks so skillfully pump out order after order is entertaining and fascinating to watch. Lots of food to go heading out the door too. The only thing you will find here is a good time. CHEERS read more

We went into the restaurant excited to return for the first time since they returned to their iconic downtown location. There was live music playing and tables open with room to view the performance, but we were denied seating to that area, so that the staff could start closing that area. It was very disappointing service, especially considering how many people were already in that area with the music. read more

Love this place, First of all they have the cleanest bathrooms of any pub/resteraunt we have been to on our 10 day trip thru Nortern Cali and Oregon. The wings were great for a starter and my GF's corned beef Rueben was too much to finish and thick cut like it should be. My Sheapards pie was very delicious and a large serving. One of the best I've had and I'm a Boston boy ! We are so glad we stopped in on our way back to SFO. We will get the Fish-n-chip next time as they looked great coming out of kitchen and is what they are known for. Ronnie was an excellent bartender too !! read more

Cool bar, the corned beef colcannon was good. Service was fine, and the ambience is really nice.

It's rare I jump on yelp anymore, but I have to today. I've lived in Eureka a year and a half and have eaten out hardly at all. Most of that is due to always having our pup with us. But today, we wanted a little luxury and sought out Gallaghers, having seen the billboards for so long. I was expecting a hole in the wall and had low expectations, but when we walked in it was amazing to be surrounded by the welcoming and warm atmosphere. The menu made me forget why I came and everything seemed like it would be delicious. We chose the potato skins as an appetizer. My wife chose the burger, not her usual go-to. After pondering 80% of the menu as my first foray, I decided on the fish and chips, but I substituted onion rings, having seen a plateful pass by. In summation, the fish was the best I've ever had. Ever. Everything was fabulous, flavorful and unforgettable. We have a plan to go back often and work our way through the expansive menu. read more

Excellent French Dip and the best sweet potato fries I've ever had! Only 4 stars because it took 45 minutes to get my food and it wasn't crowded. Nice wait staff. As a long time former waitress I have a feeling the cook can only do one ticket at a time. I'd like to try again. read more

Great place and staff. Perhaps the cook should be a little less stoned so he can manage the lunch shift rush. Tool a bit too long to get food, unfortunate since the place has great legs, ambiance, and staff read more

The ambiance gave us a welcoming feeling. I originally wanted to order the Blackened Salmon but had a change of mind when I happened to "peek" at the other table's entree-Irish sausage. I had their clam chowder to quickly satisfy my growling stomach. Naturally, it already filled me up! I ate half of my entree and gave me such a gastronomic delight! The grand gastronomic finale was the bread pudding. It was to die for! My friends and I still talk about their bread pudding! read more

Every time I come here, I get the Reuben eggrolls. They are my absolute favorite cheat meal. I also love their fried pickles and cheese curds. I tried the swipe right hard cider and it was such a pretty drink. I recommended if you enjoy hard cider. Not too sweet. The dark theme is one of my favorite things about this place as well. Great for a date. Service was fast and my server was attentive. read more

Very comfortable little restaurant with a waitstaff that I found to be very personable and helpful. Extensive menu with everything from soup and salad to sandwiches, fish & chips, pizza, full dinners with soup or salad, vegetables and a choice of potatoes and everything in between. Very clean, nicely decorated and well-stocked ladies room. Noticed a room near the back that I suspect could be used for groups or private events. Cloth napkins and fresh flower bouquets on each table made lunch extra special. read more

I got the fish (halibut) and chips. Kathy for the Reuben. Jer will get the Philly Cheese Steak. Our server was Noah. Parking was excellent. So. Noah was amazing, thoughtful and kind. He knew the menu inside and out, understanding what we wanted suggesting options as we narrowed down. Now the food. Sorry I didn't get a photo of mine. It went down the hatch too quickly. So good. Kathy's Reuben is the one on the plate. Jer's Philly is on the take out box. Kathy said her Reuben was one of the best she's ever had. The ambience was fun. The place was clean, from the floor to the tables and settings. The bathroom was also clean (I am very picky about that). Will I come back? Absolutely. There is much on the menu I need to try. Thank you, Noah for making our experience so awesome! read more

Best halibut and chips anywhere. Freshly cooked with a good portion. And the French fries were good also. Service was fast and friendly, and the dining room was clean and comfortable. Convenient parking. Definitely one of the best places in town to eat. Came highly recommended by folks from the port of Humboldt Bay. read more

The service was great although a tad slow., but the food was wonderful. My husband had the fish and chips; large pieces of perfectly battered fishing top of a mountain of fries. Very tasty. I had the Blarney Banger, a moist and perfectly cooked sausage on a toasted bun slathered with stoneground mustard and just the right amount of sauerkraut. I chose the onion rings to go with it and they were expertly done. Not a lot of batter and perfectly crisp. We have made Gallaghers our go to place in Eureka for great food in a casual setting. read more

Food is exceptionally mediocre and the service is indescribably bad. Over an hour to be brought our appetizer and we only got drink refills by going to the bar. No apologies, no accommodation. Entrees were dry--how can you ruin Fish & Chips? Dry as a bone. Child's hamburger was bread and burned meat. How can this be the same restaurant that used to operate uptown? What the H. happened? Never again. Absolutely to be avoided. read more

Quick service. Lovely staff. The food was really delicious. I got the fish and chips and my friend got the shrimp and grits. Both were on point. We got there about 45 minutes before closing time and they seated us and served us without any problem at all. Very great experience! Would definitely go back. read more

The food at Gallagher's is so good. This is our second time visiting this location and we have thoroughly enjoyed ourselves both times. My partner loved his Dublin Double burger with delicious corned beef and I'm a big fan of the cod fish n' sweet potato chips. I didn't get a picture of my Reuben sandwich during our first visit, because it was so tasty, I inhaled it before any photographic proof could be taken. They also have a full bar with a few of my favorite whisky options, so that's a plus. If you're in the area and looking for some quality pub grub and friendly service, this is the place to be! read more

My Mother loves fish & chips so for a treat I took her here for lunch. She got the Captains Platter & enjoyed every bite. (Three fish, two scallops, three shrimp with three dipping sauces) She has been immobile lately but I thought I would bring her a dinner I picked up from the restaurant. Big mistake. There was only one scallop , one sauce and the fries were soggy. I would suggest packaging the fries separately to avoid the soggy texture but the dinner felt slapped together. We won't be doing that again. read more

Food was excellent ! We went with gate 1 and it was great !! Wonderful service for 40 people !!!

Good to see them back at the original location - service was a disaster- 3 times I got out of my seat to ask a different waiter to check on our food. Really disappointed in the service and food. read more
