What does Galway need?

Definitely agree with the concert venue. I'm sure there's genuine reasons as to why one doesn't exist here but I always felt like the place was crying out for a decent large scale venue. I know the black box has some decent shows butThe TF in castlebar hosts a good few large acts, shame we couldn't have similar artists play here.

Galway needs a Maoz falafel place with buffet veg. I'd eat there every day

Less crustys

The restaurant, or the famous historical figure?

Neither. The battleship.

Nandos

it's a town that relies on tourism so build stuff that tourists will spend money on
e.g

* a theme park (indoor if need be)
* 4-5 star casino/hotel resort on the edge of town, somewhere like just past salthill. you could easily incorporate a modern 5,000 seat concert/sports arena within that facility.

a wetherspoons in the middle of town wouldn't go amiss either

Had always hoped they'd open a branch of Lush would hope there was the market for that kind of thing here. Though Flame crashed earlier this year.

A decent cheap fabric place. Would be nice if somebody would sell a wider variety of stuff for prices one could afford better. The girls in Hickeys are really great but could really do with the wider variety. Though not sure if anybody still has fabric emporiums, seem to have vanished from London too.
Would love cheap availability of Waxed cotton and other ethnic andmore colourful designs.

Would love a branch of FOPP but don't know if Dublin has one even.

A decent interface between the train station and the city centre. Unlike other Irish cities the station is slap bang in the middle of the city, but Jesus Christ, with most passengers exiting the station on the north side past a load of bus queues on a narrow footpath its like Calcutta on a Friday afternoon.
