Reviews of The Lane Cafe

The ambience is warm, welcoming and pretty. The food which we ordered was extremely fresh and tasted amazing. The quality of coffees and Chai was top notch. I was impressed by their vanilla chai latte ( highly recommended ). The other important thing was food presentation which was absolutely lovely.😍😍😍 .The quality and the price of food/coffee are reasonable. Staff are efficient and polite. The service was delightful and professional....

Lovely food. We had the Chicken Caeser Salad and the Pepperoni pizza which were both very tasty. The cafe itself needs a bit more decoration and it seemed a bit cluttered especially downstairs. The chefs and servers were very nice. 🙂

It's not clear when you sit down what food is actually on offer. Sure there is a blackboard and they even brought us a menu to the table but when we tried to order a hot snack were told it was too early. The place is small, quaint and clean and the service was fine but found food service misleading. Not everyone has a sweet tooth (cake was on offer) some of us like savoury but a pack of crisps would not do this for me.

D. L.

The food is INCREDIBLE. The staff are INCREDIBLE. The coffee is INCREDIBLE. I wish I could give this place more than 5 stars. Every time we've been here were treated like family. The food is some of the best I've had in Galway. The coffee (or whatever drink you're getting) is always perfection.

Hidden gem. Lovely coffee presented well. Really nice staff, pleasant, polite and friendly. 02/01/22

Always a warm welcome from the team when you enter. I don't even have to order my coffee anymore, it's made by the time I get to the counter!

F. W.

Fast friendly service. Pizza was amazing. Will definitely be back.

M. B.

Delicious iced coffee served by such lovely staff 😊

L. P.

One of the best café's in Galway, bold statement but if you go in and meet the staff you will see why, super acomodating and the coffee and menu in general is amazing! Picture of the mint tea on the menu prepared the Moroccan way!

D. G.

Best coffee in galway city n it's cheaper than the others .friendly staff.free wifi

E. K.

Loved the garlic bread and pizza. This is a cosy cafe right in the heart of Galway!

A. P.

Beautiful outdoor seating and the friendliest staff, there's a slight roof outdoor so even if it's raining a drop wouldn't touch you. I'd strongly reccomend the iced caramel mocha with oat milk

B. G.

Love this place. Such happy staff! Awesome coffee. Compostable coffee cups gain them an extra star so its 6*, not 5* If in galway go here

A. M.

Love this cafe!! We noticed the WIFI sign outside so we knew we could work there for a few hours. The barista is so nice and friendly. I got a flat white with oat milk it was great! We worked for a few hours, they had two plugs beside us. We went back the next day and sat upstairs - plenty of seats and plugs. I got a decaf latte this time it was so nice! He always gives you little chocolates too, such a lovely touch. Oh and he even gave us water, great service!! I 100% recommend this cafe if you are in Galway. The only criticism I have is it felt a bit chilly in the place.

K. T.

Nice little place to have a cup of coffee. My girlfriend had a vanilla chai latte and I had cafe macchiato myself. Both nice and with a good foamy top.

L. M. H.

Nice quiet place with a pretty seating area upstairs. But paper cups for sit-in guests are a no-go, especially when charging 3,10 € for a hot chocolate. In a paper cup! And I'm pretty sure the cakes and muffins come from an industrial bakery. Only one toilet for everyone. Little outside sitting area as well. Would give 2,5 stars if possible. At least a nice break from the hussle of the main streets. But paper cups!

N. P.

Good coffee, now they have pizza as well. Some sits outside in the back. Nice place for a chat with a friend.

Awesome little find, off the main strip... tasty coffee, cake, and bonus ice-cream along with super staff... Highly recommend!

L. B.

Friendly staff and amazing tasty coffee. Lovely seating area outside, highly recommend!

J. H.

Pizza was really nice, the iced caramel latte was unreal and the service was very good, lovely little spot to pass a few hours on your own 😊

Descent size glutenfree pizza same size as a normal pizza . Got a meat one and was lovely . Friendly staff . Worth going into

L. R.

Wonderful place and super friendly staff! The place is really busy but it is worth trying. The menu caters for all intolerences (gluten free, vegan, vegetarian) and the staff are super helpful.

R. G.

Just had a pepperoni pizza with jalapeño while having drinks at the Quay bar down the alley. Crust was perfect. Cheese had excellent taste. Only suggestion would be maybe let it cook another minute or two to give a little char to the pepperoni and jalapeño. Priced well too.

Really, really good pizza and carrot cake! Amazing coffee! Very nice climate. Also more spacious inside than it looks from the outside. 100% recommended 😃👍

A. B.

Rachid worked here all during Covid has always been a pleasure to meet. He makes everyone feel so welcome. (Forgive me if I spelled your name incorrectly 😊)

C. W.

There is a Lavazza coffee sign out the front, but this coffee is so much nicer than any I've had. Whatever ye are doing keep on doing it! Best coffee in town and way cheaper

D. F.

Very nice little spot, some tables out the back , we had Meze plates for breakfast with oven fresh pittas, num num. Coffee was good and strong.

A. T.

My absolute favourite place to go for a chai latte and a bite to eat while in the city. Always friendly staff and quality food. Would definitely recommend heading here when in the city. Also some historic gems in the same lane. Can be found down Druid Lane

R. o. k.

A. W.

Amazing coffee and lovely staff! Great place worth recommending.

A. O. D.

Lovely little place with great hot chocolate and a very friendly server. However upstairs was completely taken up with people on laptops with earphones in, which left me and my friend almost feeling like we couldn't have a conversation. It's a cafe, not a study room.

G. D.

Lovely place for having coffee and chatting

B. W.

This is such a beautiful, romantic location. So perfect in fact, that my fiance picked the outside of this gorgeous little cafe to propose to me yesterday! Thank you for making such an amazing thing so special. (The coffee is also really nice, we got caramel and cookie coffees which I would recommend.)

B. R.

Good coffee, super-friendly staff. Off the beaten track enough to be a breath of fresh air but still right in the middle of the bustle. Lovely smoking area.

M. A.

I loved the place. Great for reading, studying or working on the laptop. Coffee is good and yet to try the food there. Internet is good and electrical outlets are all over the place to plug in your electronics.

M. B.

Excellent spot for a sandwich or coffee! We got the mocha coffee and the hot chocolate, as well as the panini. Everything was delicious, and the barista was so kind and quick! Highly recommended.

Amazing wifi + lots of power outlets to plug in + a printer! A great work space upstairs + a cozy seating area outside in "the garden." GREAT workers = kind, efficient, understanding if you're there for work ALL DAY like us :) BEST wifi cafe in Galway. We'll be back tomorrow. Oh and DELICIOUS cappuccinos and a smooooth Americano - couldn't have been happier with our experience.

Delicious coffee variations and even better carrot and chocolate cake! (Original) Gemütliches Café, das ein bisschen ruhiger liegt, als die Cafés in der Hauptshoppingstraße.
