Walked in... not impressed, sat down, not impressed, ordered food, it was very good. The Fish and Chips was One large clean fresh piece of fish with a strong thin batter not too much, not too little batter. Not oily - not burnt. The chips, (French fries), we're lightly coated and crunchy a very mild seasoning that did not detract but added flavor, no salt required, but could be added. I had the burger, it was great. (Most of the burgers I've had in Ireland have been really good and this one was just as, if not a little better. This is a perfect stop.

The panna cotta was ok , not great. My guess is the pastry chef needs a bit of work based on the other desserts at the table. But all in all everybody else's entrees, and the wine were perfect. Can't wait to come back to visit next year.

We had two spicy beef casseroles that were packed with flavor, along with two sandwich-and-salad combos that hit the spot perfectly. I grabbed a cup of the ginger carrot soup, and it was fantastic. Do yourself a favor and save room for dessert -- the cinnamon apple piece is an absolute must-try. And honestly, the lattes and coffees alone are worth pulling over for. If you're in the area, please give this family-run place a visit. You won't be disappointed. It's such a treat when you unexpectedly discover a treasure like this one.

I'd certainly recommend eating here if you have the chance to explore outside of Galway.

The breakfast bap may be the biggest breakfast sandwich ever. It's definitely a gut-bomb with an…read moreegg, bacon AND sausage, all on a pillowy soft roll. The bacon was thick-cut and full of crispy, salty, porky goodness. The sausages were nothing to write home (or Yelp) about, but it just adds nicely to the overall sandwich. The egg was still runny and created a great "sauce" for the remaining bites. I felt like I needed an infusion of spinach and kale after that bap, but it was well worth it. The coffee was decent and came in my favourite type of vessel, large bowl-like mug. This bap is best enjoyed sitting on their patio, enjoying the sunshine and the local morning chatter.

BF ordered a pint of Smithwicks - got a half pint. When the food came out, though, it was lovely. BF had the chowder, seafood was fresh, there was some lovely dill, the bread wasn't too crumbly, and the cream was thick without being overwhelming. My salmon was perfectly cooked atop a bed of wonderfully roasted veggies. Two waiters brought the check (two slips of paper), and three promised to go get the credit card machine (one did come back with it, and pretty promptly). We'd go back if we were ever in town again.
