Great Bar The best bar in Galway City, a lovely renovated bar in the heart of Galway city. Great music and friendly staff, especially Kevin. Great smoking area upstairs. Definitely worth a visit
Friendly, Welcoming Pub. We found this pub on our first day in Galway and just kept going back. The staff were friendly and efficient and the atmosphere was jovial.
A great place for music and some pints Went here on a wednesday and it was live music and Lively.
Had a couple of pints and met some nice people. Several bars so bar service was fast. Several areas allow you to decide how loud you want the music.
Great craic for a midweek pint or 7 Had a stay in Jurys last night and decided go for a quiet pint before retiring to my bed.
I walked up the street and saw the Quays.
I enquired with the security staff as to whether there was music and they said there was music both upstairs and down. It was great!
Band downstairs were brilliant, absolute magic and I would have stayed there if it wasnt for the fact they had to finish early for some reason so I went upstairs to have a look while I finished my pint. The band upstairs were a real party band, a different vibe to the band downstairs but equally as entertaining. Im ashamed to say 1 pint turned into 6 or 7 due to the music but 10/10 no regrets despite a sore head.
Nice pints, nice staff, good music, great night.
Fun In Galway The Quay Galway what's not to like fantastic venue. Excellent service staff and atmosphere live bands late bar great DJ. Just as enjoyable afternoon evening or late night. Very well run and very very organised a must if visiting Galway.
Great atmosphere I was just thinking about this place... I was there just over a year ago (I said September but it was actually July) with a mate when we did a little motorbike tour. We popped in for a pint after we'd had dinner... what a great atmosphere. Such a fun, happy place - music, dancing and generally good spirits. It made a real impression on me in what was my first visit to the Republic of Ireland, and in a way highlighted a couple of very nice things about Ireland - an appreciation of live music and a desire to get together and have a nice time. I hope The Quays has got through Covid-19 / lockdown etc OK.
