I was in Galway city on my own and looking for a nice place for a bit of breakfast. I had heard that "The Kitchen" at the city museum was very good. The phrase like a kid in a candy shop applies if you're like me and love fresh baked goods. The problem was making a decision. Each item has... More

I have eaten here several times and have never been disappointed. The food is delicious, imaginative, and fresh. The staff are always friendly. The cafe itself is large, airy, and comfortable. Always a delightful experience:)

I've eaten here a number of times and never had a bad meal. The portion sizes are generous and I love 'The Kitchen Sink' hummus platter. They have great cakes and pastries as well, that go nicely with their selection of teas. You can even get a frequent tea drinker card where you earn a free cuppa after a number... More

The food is unreal here, lots of Gluten Free and Vegan dishes to choose from. The flavours are bold and bright and the desserts are always very appealing up on the counter! Would definitely recommend this place to eat..!

I went to The Kitchen last week by myself one afternoon to read a book and have a light lunch before going to the Yeats exhibition. The last times I'd been there, the menu was a rather long ramble of overpriced sandwiches so I had stuck to their (delicious) desserts and coffee. On this occasion, though, the menu had been... More

I've had evening meals twice, both times it was something like 20E for 3 courses, both times it was absolutely delicious. Absolute top marks for food: inventive, earthy, fresh and wholesome.

This is attached to the Galway museum so is always busy, and deservedly so. They offer an interesting range on the menu and I enjoyed the Pho very much. A spicy noodle soup, it had a lovely flavour and I chose the steamed chicken option.

I had heard great things about this cafe so decided to go there with my mother and sister for lunch on Saturday. The service was awful, we were sitting at our table for quite a while before we could get the attention of one of the waitresses and ask her for menus. One of the staff who cleared the table... More
