    Blakes gets my vote.

    Steak and cheese wrap with soup or chowder for 9.95 is a solid meal for the price.

    First ten reviews on TA are 4/5 star, just saying. :cool: You then of course have the out of towners who whinge about bouncers and give one star which is nowt to do with the food.
    Anyway im still surprised that another person thinks its poor, have you been recently Arty? Or is it a legacy complaint?

    Last time I was in Massimos was 2 months ago. Pint and a pizza was on special. I asked could I pick the toppings on the pizza. Got a reply 'we are not pizza hut'. Rudest waiting staff I've met in a long time. Pizza was below average at best as well.

    Pity, it's a nice place for a pint

    The sandwiches in Cellar are amazing though. Their Cajun Chicken Ciabata is druel inducing

    The wings in An Pucan are brilliant aswell alright

    Was there recently for my second and last time... Paid €7.50 for a sandwich on a board on it's own. Had to get up three times to ask for the coffee I ordered.

    I only wish it was better cause it's a cool pub but I hate bad service
    Ah ya that sounds pretty poor, one thing i think is an issue there is the drinks order thing, we always get ours separate to the meal as the staff are separate and it seems sometimes they cock it up.

    In fairness they do a limited range of pizzas, i can understand their point but the comment was a bit much i suppose. I actually only like Massimo for food, no atmosphere in there for a pint, imo.

    I suggest McSwiggans'

    But lookit - you are a guy, presumably unattached coming to Galway for the weekend.

    Why this obsession with food. There are mighty women in Galway. Mingle and try your case. There will always be time for grub.

    In ten or twenty years' time will you be thinking of that perfect sandwich, or of that delightful lady?

    Presumably unattached why do u say that?

    Krcma is good, The Oslo is okay but overpriced for what it does.

    Black cat probably my favourite restaurant in Galway at the moment. The mussels and beef cheeks are amazing.

    When?
    Apparently if you just want a proper nosh up with no frills The Galleon is the place to go to.
    Not been there in years but hearing good feedback (mainly from tourists).
    They are celebrating some kind of a significant birthday so they have offers all over the place.

    For Bóthar na Trá I'd recommend KRCMA. Sturdy, good pre-binge food :D
    And try the Kofola Cola too!

    Urban is doing a very good deal at the moment. Two courses for €20 and you can get a bottle of house wine for €15 with that. Even my DH, who could eat for Ireland, feels full after the antipasti platter to start and steak for main.

    Stay away from that rancid p1ss would be my tip, get the ribs in their though, great eating in them.
