    If you're coming to Galway, choose this restaurant without hesitation, I have made this restaurant the last holiday destination I'll spend in the UK without forgetting the deliciousness, originality and Atmosphere of the food here for two years.My strong recommendation is the seafood plate. The brown club is especially delicious so that you can eat a lot of buckets.I am grateful to have come across this restaurant. It's one of the best memories of my life. P.S. Oysters here are by far the best pre-processed dishes compared to nearby restaurants.

    The food was amazing. In particular, the sticky toffee pudding was to die for. The best I have ever had. The sauce was perfection and pudding was soft and tender & the butterscotch ice cream was a lovely compliment. Excellent on price. Lovely waitress who managed the floor entirely by herself seamlessly. Highly recommend it.
