Located in the city centre of Galway’s vibrant ‘Latin Quarter’ The Quays, Galway is one of Galway’s most famous and historic music drinking establishments. For close on 400 years The Quays has catered to both Galwegians and visitors to our city.
Upstairs is a spectacular live music venue with a pipe organ stage on stilts. Every weekend bands from all over Ireland come to perform. We host a array of acts which play a mix of genres from rock and pop to blues and classics. Many TV music specials are also filmed in the Music Hall, including the famous Glór Tíre on TG4.
We are delighted to welcome you to The Galway Girl Restaurant in The Quays!
We serve food seven days a week from 12 – 9pm. Our menu features traditional Irish dishes, that have been passed down through generations, as well as a modern take on some of our favourites. By using locally sourced ingredients, we aim to serve the freshest, tastiest meals.
Absolutely fabulous atmosphere. Pub is always packed and that's because the music is sooo good! I haven't eaten so can't comment, but service is always quick and polite.
Galway institution! What a great place to hang in town.
Outstanding roasted Irish chicken dinner! Several delicious gluten-free options. I had extra veg on the side, and all the vegetables were prepared perfectly - not mushy and overcooked. Live music was fun. The staff are incredibly kind and efficient. I’m definitely coming back. Highly recommend!
Spettacolare serata in questo pub di Galway con l'atmosfera irlandese che di più non si può, musica suonata da una band bravissima e coinvolgente. Consiglio questo pub per chi vuole passare una tipica serata irlandese.
Stopped in this bar for a few pints, the bar is located in the Latin Quater and the atmosphere and vibe are awseome. Can be busy in the evening to find some seating, but worth a stop.
Manages the crowd well! Great atmosphere and incredible music. People spontaneously got up to Irish Dance! Had a blast.
Meilleure ambiance vu jusqu’à maintenant en Irlande
The Quays Bar on ah, ahem...Quay street is one of the best bars in Galway city in terms of atmosphere. Good place to drop in for a pint of Guinness (proper one) or food and lively in the evenings. Good staff and warm atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the city
Lovely pub, and good prices for the area. Lots of space, music and friendly staff.
