Down by the river.

And agreed, good breakfasts.
The Museum Kitchen is good too.

Seven (back when it was Kellys) had the best french toast in the city. They now don't serve it anymore.

Galway Plate on tuam road is really good feed and a decent fry.

Galway Arms beside Millstreet garda station has a really tasty breakfast and the owner ( I think ) is a very pleasant man that always makes eating there a pleasure. Always seems to be in a good mood.

Corrib tea rooms down beside the court house has probably the tastiest breakfast Ive had in Galway. Its won a few awards over the last 2 years and the black pudding is as wide as the eggs. Very friendly in there too. Full of gardai and judges though so if you are on the run then stick to breakfast rolls.

56 Central nice breakfast, healthier option.

Always found The Cellar to be the best.

Galway Plate on N17. Quick and tasty.

I only ate at the Galway Plate once but I was kinda disappointed with the fry, not bad exactly but entirely bog standard, more of a quantity over quality I thought.

Della do a fine fry though, and Born used to do a great one too but that's gone now so that's entirely useless information.

Anywhere in Galway do an eggs benedict? Haven't had one of those in many years.

Sitting Duck cafe do a lovely breakfast, also have eggs Benedict on the menu but I haven't tried that.....yet

In terms of quality, Dela and Nimmo's (ArdBia?) do a good fry with good produce.

I love Eggs Benedict Dela or The Sitting Duck best ones I've found. Dela have now reduced the size of their coffee cups though so since coffee is just as important Sitting Duck is the new favourite

An Pucan have my vote. Esquires around the corner is a close second.

Corrib Tea Rooms.

Best eggs benedict I've had in Galway. Absolutely f*cking yum.

Tribeton do an eggs Benedict too.. nice, albeit service not always great.

Raging_Ninja

I usually order eggs benedict with sausages on the side.

I like the eggs benedict in Caprice. They changed the bread part a few months back, so that isn't as good as before imo but it's still good.

The eggs benedict in Ard Bia was great but they've started adding some sort of tomato puree stuff which I'm not too far gone on, so I just ask for it without that. Other than that it's really quite nice.

Not a fan of the tribeton eggs benedict tbh - the bacon portion is usually overdone.

56 Central is way overrated, service sometimes not great but the one time I ordered a fry there the damned rashers, while cooked, were cold, which doesn't really speak well of the kitchen staff that they missed something so basic. The only reason I go there at all is because the girlfriend likes it for some reason. But I don't trust them to give me anything more than the basics.

Had the fry in O'Reillys Salthill this morning... Lovely and recommended

Both fine for the bog standard greasy spoon type of fry but nothing more.

The Huntsmans Inn and the Museum Kitchen do a good fry.

Funnily enough I was disappointed with the breakfast in both these places. I would rate them both highly for everything else. The breakfast I got in the Huntsman was just reheated, microwaved, nothing cooked fresh - not even the eggs. The service was really bad as well. I stopped there another time for breakfast because it was convenient. I wasn't ordering a fry again I just wanted a coffee and something small. It wasn't busy or very early but I ended up walking out. Compared to service and food there at other times, which are normally very good, I get the impression breakfast is a bit of an afterthought.

I wasn't that gone on the fry in the Museum Kitchen. The bacon was really stringy and hard to eat. The plate is lacking a few items. It's the only time I've been disappointed with something I've ordered there. It is one of my favourite places to eat in Galway.

I like the Irish breakfast in Gourmet Tart Salthill. It's Collerans meats, always cooked fresh, eggs cooked to order any way you want, fried potato, good brown bread, tea or coffee, all for €9.95.

Frends is (or at least was) a pretty decent fry last time I was there.

the Galleon in salthill is number 1 and the cellar is number 2.

ohhhh... August to Oct...lets make it it Dec! From looking at the thread, I think the op has filled his / her boots on frys.

Dela beats both of these hands down. It's the best in Galway by a margin.

"Best" is at best arbitrary.

26going80

ok il try Dela and get back to ye also i have heard the harbour hotel is meant to be expensive but very good so if there better than the Galleon il be shocked and happy

MadYaker

It gets mad busy if you go at lunchtime you'll probably have to wait, especially if it's a Friday. Worth the wait though.

Maybe it was mentioned but Griffins do a great fry. Lovely sausages from hertriges (spelling?), plate is full, and the toast is their own toasted bread. I'm a big fan of it.
I had the breakfast sausage bap in caprice a while back and it was piss poor.

BumperD

Sampled Dela fry up on foot of recommendation here. At best Average. Bacon way too salty, mushrooms over cooked , sausages average and a long wait from order to food. Setting is really nice but why people are raving about the fry up is beyond me. Friends, Gourmet tart etc are far superior breakfasts.

Had breakfast yesterday in An Pucan and was very impressed. Good sized assuages, lovely rashers, black n white pudding, scrambled eggs and spicy sauteed spuds. Very good coffee too. 91/0

Bite club on Abbeygate Street have a surprisingly nice fry on weekends.

We should probably research this in some sort of scientific fashion - perhaps a small dedicated cohort of boardsies could try these various venues on a weeklyish basis?

Had breakfast in Dela on Saturday... Good feed but the weakest part of the breakfast was definitely the sausages and the tiny cups of tea... The rest was delicious though

Tiny cups of tea?? That puts me right off. You need great big mugs and a scalding pot.

Yup. The teacups are hobbit sized...
