Tigh Fox was the pub located above the hostel that I was staying at. I could hear the music when I…read morechecked in, so I decided to head down for a pint and to listen to some songs. There was a good mix of Celtic music (including songs everyone seemed to know the words to but me) and Johnny Cash. The next day I came back to Tigh Fox. There's no music in the day, but it was raining pretty fierce. When it's rainy (and cold) you want something warm to eat. I had bacon and cabbage. Pretty traditional type of dish. I really enjoyed it. This is a nice pub if you're in Galway. And it's only a short walk from the bus station and the train station. Definitely worth popping into for a drink or two.

I went with a large group of friends to the bar and later to a drag show at this venue. My only…read morecomplaint about the entire thing was there was some confusion about when the show started. The only time on the website/posters was "doors open at 8:30pm". Once there (around 8:30) we are told that the doors open at 10pm and the show will start at 11pm. Earlier in the night, we sat upstairs at large-table bench seating in a covered, semi-outdoor area with music. I enjoyed their Orchard Thieves apple cider, and from what I saw others got either beer, cider, or shots from the bar. Later we migrated downstairs to their club/stage area for the drag show. The Queens were absolutely fabulous and put on a wonderful show for us. It was a great night!

The first 2 floors tell the history of Galway while the top flower has more science based exhibits. The exhibits are good for both kids and adults. There was also a special exhibit on the fourth floor. I enjoyed learning about the history of Galway and Ireland in general. The exhibit on the uprising in 1916 was informative.

It was interesting to learn about shipwrecks and seabed mapping, some human biology and the history of medical devices, and really, what Irish museum would be complete without a history of the Irish Free State and the Troubles. Objects on display are tiny and massive, including the oldest Claddagh ring in existence (dating from circa 1700!) and a sailboat. The museum has stairs and a lift, making it fully handicapped accessible. There are a number of exhibits that are interactive and can be touched. Expect at least an hour to appreciate this museum, two if you're a reader. [Review 1948 of 2024 - 130 in Republic of Ireland - 22970 overall]

The service was incredibly attentive and welcoming. The fish and chips? Hands down the BEST I've ever had -- perfectly crisp on the outside, flaky and tender inside. And the seafood chowder was beyond words. Rich, flavorful, and packed with seafood. Of course, the beer was fresh and delicious, just as it should be.

I was greeted immediately by the locals, offered "the best coffee in Ireland" (too bad I don't drink coffee), and spent the rest of the night hanging out with my new friends. This place combines coffee shop with wine bar with groovy music...what's not to love. When Tom (the owner) is there, free wifi is available (no wifi when he is gone). The vibe is total hep cat meets artsy caffeinated wino. I haven't felt as comfortable in a bar as I did there in a long time. I wish this place was on the corner of my street, because I'd be there every day.
