    Royal Villa - An amazing Chinese. Its a little outside the city, about a 5 minute Taxi.

    Kai Restaurant - Earned its Michelin 'Bib' recently. Located in the city. Amazing food! The Pork was AMAZING! You will need to book it in advance! Ring up now!

    Most of the pubs do good bar food to be fair.

    I couldn't recommend this place enough, it's the only restaurant i'll drop into now if it's not a big occasion

    Thanks everyone. Really looking forward to Galway, looks like a nice place to hang out over Christmas.

    Burgatory is wayyy too expensive

    Also, park house always does brilliant good. At very reasonable prices too.

    Or pick anywhere on quay street. They're all good for people watching

    Papa Rich.

    end of thread!

    Ya papa rich is superb. Burgatory was met when we went. Unseasoned food. If it's a burger then Handsome burger is far better.

    Dough Bros is nice and informal I found and getting great reviews if you fancy a small pizza.

    This too shall pass.

    Another vote for Papa Rich(Newtownsmith) Good food and very affordable. Great views over the Corrib as well. Book as early as possible because its difficult to get a table.

    I think for an amazing burger check out Chilli Shack. That said, there are so many cuisines and different prices there are many options. Just open google maps and type in "restaurants near me".

    Buddha Bar has good food and nice cocktails. Must have reservation.
    Papa Rich is good and great value at a tenner/meal

    in comparisson to where exactly? 7.50 for a delicious hand-made burger cooked to your liking (pink is my pref) with free chips and if you want loaded chips they're half price, the deliciously moist chicken tenders cooked in franks with scaldy sauce is only 6.95 and considering there must be a minimum of 2 decent chicken breasts used i struggle to finish them, for dessert the shakes at 4.50 contain at least 200% more gelato than you can buy in town for the same money

    i've tried almost everywhere in the city and for the crazy money you pay in most for them to serve us bland tasting mass produced pre-packed rubbish with packet sauces they can keep them thanks, i much rather the simple but delicious tasting burgatory everytime, nicest tasting and best value food in the city since we lost jamaica joes imho
