Best Roll in Galway?

SlipperyPeople

I'm usually hungover and craving a roll on a saturday lunch time to chill and watch the football. My go to place Wards is closed at the weekend until april apparently so i'm looking for recommendations on places to get good rolls! sick of subway tbh as its a poor substitute for bbq ribs, cajun sauce, jalepenos, melted cheese, red onion. Looking for some alternative ideas to breakfast rolls....

Any Ideas?

Well if you do want a breakfast roll, the best one in the city is O'Hehirs bakery Westside.

Wards is closed at weekends? That is a recession indicator.
As for rolls, make your own.

biko

Not sure but I think Topaz down at Kingfisher makes weekend rolls.

Wards opposite the students gate for the university?

They only opened at weekends in and around exam times.

beardybrewer

I think they are only opened Sat, unless they are doing "winter hours".

Quiznos in Supermac's Eyre Square do really nice rolls.

Apache by far. €3 and the bread and chicken are both lovely, you can also get as much fillings as you want without them charging you more. Downfall is it's an entire gamble whether you get a member of staff who can understand English, so the contents of your roll can vary wildly regardless of what you asked for.

Gourmet Tart Co. on Lower Abbeygate St. easily do the best rolls in the city.

Yes they do the best rolls (...and wraps) in town but stupidly, they only sell them Mon to Fri.
The only sambos they sell at the weekends are the pre-made ones.

That supervalu at the bottom of Eyre Square, chicken tikka, mash potato, and cheese, heated up. I've taken parking tickets for that. And the sausages. Damn. Are they still open?

Centra maybe? Or maybe the Spar that closed in January.

SlipperyPeople

Not a fan of them. Gala on Prospect Hill hands down, how has that not been mentioned yet?

Centra not supervalu I meant, the signage is usually a blur when I run past.

Tried the sausage in a roll today from the South African guy in the market and it was really good.. The roll could have been a bit fresher but the sausages and sauces were yum! He's a nice lad too.. Will defo be back

aw

Epic thread with some great suggestions...

If you are in Newcastle and Ward's is closed, G&L are nearby too and are good.

Also the Big Breakfast crepe in Mr Waffle is savage. Kills your hangover stone dead.

Not the best roll in town but best value is probably hot chicken roll in Londis (opposite UCHG) for €1.99

Surfacezebra

Le petit pan on Mainguard st and Gourmet tart are the best by far.All them galas and londis stores are the same processed crap.

They're absolutely disgusting though, which sort of negates the money saving part

wet-paint

Morton's in Salthill.
Roast beef, semi sun dried tomatoes, brie, some roast veg, lettuce and onion.
Hummus.
Ciabatta.

Five bones. Man alive, I wish I had one now. Best place in town.

Need to say i got food poisoning from centra on Forster St yesterday. Got a hot chicken roll. Seen the girl using the same knife for raw food and cooked food. My own fault really I shouldnt have eaten it! Really regretting it now!! Be warned!!

Centra out by the G do phenomenal breakfast rolls. Also, their staff are all gorgeous which helps.

I like the rolls from Hogans in Ballybrit

My god. Has nobody ever heard of the vevo roll?

edit:I know vevo is gone!

Yeah last time i had a hot chicken salad i was very sick.:rolleyes:

Dont understand your gripe. Theres no issue with using a knife to cut hot and cold food, if they used it on cooked and uncooked food then yes thats an issue but not what you've described.

My "gripe" is that i ate food from there and got food poisoning.

And getting sick is a fair gripe. But in fairness, read your first quote. That makes me picture cutting uncooked chicken and then buttering your roll with the same knife. Thought you were pretty crazy alright to have eaten anything from there having seen that. Hope you're feeling better.

Fair enough you were ill but what you describe doesn't sound like something anyone could become ill from.
