Reviews of John Keogh's Gastropub
J. K. M.
One of the best pubs in Galway, in my opinion. The staff were extremely efficient from the beginning to the end – from checking our vaccination certificates to swiftly taking our orders immediately after being shown our table. I did not have a good time at the place I was at before entering John Keogh’s and my mood swiftly changed to a good one. The pub was very clean. The staff were very welcoming and the music was great (1990s) – admittedly appealing to me being nostalgic. I loved the atmosphere at John Keogh’s and if I lived in Galway, I’d definitely be a regular .

We were out for dinner with friends on Saturday the 5th of Feb.
The venue its self is very easy to find, and had a great atmosphere per covid.
Things have changed, not really for the better.
Bar is nice, staff are friendly, but they couldn't cope with a Saturday night.
The food is my main bone of contention, So I enjoy my steak, and blue is how I always order it. The one I received came out medium rare at best. It took 10/15 minutes to ask for a steak knife, that should have come out on the plate, if not left at the seat when the order was placed. No one came to check and see if everything was OK once the food was left down to us. They should have known something was not right when half of a 28euro steak was not finished.
As someone who did work in restaurants for Many years these are simple things to get right/wrong and are easy to fix.

Booked a table for New Years Evening. What a fantastic Restaurant , very warm welcome, The food & wine was excellent. Great value and served by a most professional & very friendly team. We will be back very soon.
G. H.
Our go to gastro pub in Galway, steak is the best around..... Cooked to perfection. Apart from the lovely food, Roisin who looked after us was such a pleasant, attentive person, John Keoghs have someone who sets their business apart from others. Hope to be back in the future

Erin and Michelle were fabulous. Lovely food. Great experience. Well done to staff and management xxx
A. G.
Fabulous pub, great floor staff but food is mediocre at best. I had sea bass (my favourite fish) plonked on top of lots of baby potatoes and green beans along with discs of chorizo that were mainly dry and rubbery. No seasoning on fish & no dressing or sauce.
I tried to finish my meal on a high up with dessert, but again, the meringue was edible but uninspiring served in a small bowl and nothing else on the plate. Will not be rushing back for food but its a nice place to have a drink.
J. R.
I really liked this place. The fish and chips were amazing-- good, crispy batter on the fish and great chips. My wife had fish and it was really good. We also shared a bottle of wine. Good service & food, 10/10 would recommend.
F. Q.
Very nice bar and superb Guinness. Staff are very friendly and service is quick 👌
B. L.
I made reservations for 9:15 and showed up at 9:00. I was told the kitchen was closed, but they were still serving drinks in the bar area and was told to grab a seat at the bar. I told them we had reservations, and they immediately showed us to the dining room. So let that be a lesson to ya’ - make reservations!
The temperature was pretty warm inside.
After this little SNAFU, things went pretty smooth. We had the best server in the world. She was FUN and she knew the menu upside down and was able to answer all of our questions.
We ordered the duck spring rolls as an app (€8.00). There was plenty of tasty duck tucked inside these rolls, with sweet, poached plums on the side, served on a bed of crispy kale and sprinkled with a bit of coarse ground black pepper. I highly recommend them (and I’m not a huge fan of duck).
I had the traditional fish and chips (€17.00) which were decent, but nothing to brag about, and not worth the steep price. I found fish and chips to be exactly the same anywhere in Ireland or in the U.S. It included a chunky tartar sauce on the side and a small side salad. PLENTY of food to fill you up, but just no “wow” factor here. It was typical fish and chips.
We also ordered the hand-rolled gnocchi (€14.50). It was served over a tasty spiced tomato sauce, with pesto, and a few roasted red onions, all drizzled with gorgonzola cheese, pesto. It was a great combination.
Drink prices:
A pint of Bogman Irish Amber Ale (which I didn’t see anywhere else in Ireland) was €6.50 - I highly recommend this one if you like amber ales.
Bottle of Corona is €5
Jameson and Ginger Ale is €7.30
My advice to you - don't try the fish and chips at an upscale place. Try a hole in the wall joint, or even one of the fast food joints available in Galway.
R. L.
Struggled to get in anywhere because we were group of eight. We stumbled upon John Keoghs and front the outset they couldn’t have been more accommodating. Excellent service the servers were on the ball. The Food and cocktails are gorgeous. I hope to be back at John Keoghs very soon.
R. M.
The best pub experience I’ve had in Galway so far. Excellent atmosphere and service along with great food. Well organized for Covid restrictions. I’d recommend booking in advance as it’s very popular
M. H.
Did a bit of homework before arriving in Galway and down to reviews booked John Geoghs Gastropub due to my husband being coeliac. On arrival very busy but still very covid aware, we were asked for covid certs. Shown to our table and drinks served very promptly. When waitress came back to take order my husband asked for gluten Free burger, waitress explained no gluten Free bun/bread available. He changed to Seabass and I had Fish and Chips. Both were excellent. Could not fault our waitress either. Very professional and pleasant. Only reason for the four stars is that I specifically booked due to the ratings due to Gluten Free food. Cannot understand how they would not have Gluten Free Bread available on a Saturday Night. All and all very good restaurant and would advise anyone to go just keep some gluten Free Bread on the premises!!
C. F.
Great gastropub to spend the evening with familie or friends. Kids have to leave before 10PM. Good food, I liked the decoration. I strongly recomend book a place, on weekends is very busy.
J. V.
Best food in Galway and beyond- I keep coming back! The service is spectacular and the atmosphere is laid back and warm. I could eat this braised lamb shoulder every day! Excellent value too. Thanks for always leaving me full and happy 😁
C. H.
Great atmosphere and food but more basic that the website depicts. This may he been due to the timing of our visit on Saturday night of freshers week. Would vist again.
M. D.
Great food and drink here. Staff were friendly and professional
P. C.
We made reservations and really enjoyed our visit to John Keogh's. I had the special, which was braised beef cheeks. Wow, just wow. Who would have thought you could get a piece of beef so tender and delectable! Highly recommend!
J. B.
Great food and plenty of it and good fast and very friendly service nothing to much bother to them lovely atmosphere will be back again
T. O.
Upscale pub with a good food selection. The fish and chips were good. The staff was very friendly.
J. L.
Excellent service. Perfect gins. Good choice of wines. Attention to detail is first class.
If you want more than the standard Galway fare., this is the place for you
T. H.
Great food and easy atmosphere. Our party enjoyed everything we ordered. If you are deciding where to go for that pub experience stop here for food that is far above the others!
J. S.
Delicious food and friendly service. More upmarket than pub grub but still relaxed and informal. Lots of local produce cooked with skill.
F. M.
Delicious food with great service, lovely atmosphere and proper Irish welcome 😁
T. M.
First time to eat here, food was delicious, staff very friendly. We'll be back
R. T.
After being turned away from what felt like every resteraunt in galway city. We came across this amazing place and still don't understand why it wasn't packed out also, we were very lucky to get a table.
Not only was the food delicious but the staff were exceptional. Amy (definitely not from belfast) and Michelle, despite it being there first week on the job they absolutely smashed it. Well done girls.
Food was great and very reasonably priced, service was bang on. We look forward to seeing you guys again.
Thank you for saving our evening in galway.
P. S.
I ate very well the oysters,the gnocchi and the pub bravas.The duck spring rolls were very spicy. Is one of the best places where to eat.
A. R.
We came here for dinner and loved the cozy atmosphere almost as much as I loved the fresh local oysters.
t. a.
Myself and my wife loved it very festive and I'll be going back again and again and food was very tasty
G.
Good pub with good atmosphere. Small menu but done well. Its better to try book than walk in as it is a bit hectic.
g. K.
Food and cocktails were amazing. Staff are really friendly
L. W.
I am torn. Got one of the best clam chowders that I ever had, but half of my oysters had small pieces of shell in them from when they were opened, and that is just a no-go in my opinion.
K. D. C.
Great service and live food...the dry aged steak is top !!
T. D.
Awesome staff and good food. Beer selection is quite okay as well. Would like the beer menu a beer more diverse. Still one of the best places in Galway.
B. L.
Service was friendly and efficient. Food was quite boring, lacking in taste and imagination.
M. M.
Went for a few drinks, lovely staff even in these strange times, table service provided with a smile.
A. L.
Very good, large portions, fair price
Enjoy your meal👍
R. T.
Fantastic place! Great service, great food, and great drinks. I was in Galway for 2 nights and had dinner here both nights. A great place for a fun, delicious meal with friends or family.
A. K.
Absolutely no complaints. Food was delicious. Our waiters Naoise, Shauna and Joey were lovely and were always quick to bring us our orders of food and drink. The place was so full with personality and I can't wait to go again next time I visit the city!
P. C.
Me and my girlfriend Aine had a pleasant experience here at Keoghs. Funnily enough we were greeted by another Aine. The two girls bonded instantly in a way only two Aines can. Food wise it was excellent. I had a steak which was so tender in literally slid off the plate and into my mouth. Aine went for the rivaoli which reminded her of our holiday in Venice in March 2013. The 'feng shui' of the place was both peaceful and welcoming, with a touch of zest. 5 stars for the ambience, kitchen and our waitress Aine. Will be returning immediately if not sooner.
M. M.
Nice food but too many people in enclosed place without opening doors/ windows!
S. A.
Great food,great atmosphere and great staff.
W. H.
Great food. Very cosy pub.
D. R.
(SYD) You need to try the lamb shoulder, carb overload but so worth it.. love that they don't take reservations you just gotta take a chance
a. w.
We had a great experience last night. Food was unbelievable and the atmosphere was great. By far the best service I’ve ever had. Our server Naoise was very attentive, friendly and also good fun. Would definitely go back.
P. C.
The food was amazing. Lamb was melt in your mouth. Very friendly, inviting staff.

Excelent service, lovely fresh food and so well presented.good value.

We visited on the 2nd of August. We had about a 2 minute wait for our pre booked table. The place was buzzing. Despite covid restrictions the pub atmosphere was maintained. We ordered a starter of tempura prawns to share and 2 steaks. The order was taken quickly and drinks arrived straight away. The prawns were delicious, cooked perfectly. When the steaks arrived we were so impressed with the look of them we had to become instahuns and post pics immediately. The meal was absolutely delicious. Both steaks were ordered medium and cooked to perfection. My only very small complaint is that the steak knives are very blunt. Extremely enjoyable evening all round and the staff were a delight.
K. M.
Absolutely fantastic. We came for my mums birthday after doing some wedding dress shopping and it was just perfect. The waitress was friendly and funny and really made our experience wonderful.
Then the food was absolutely superb. We went for the bar tapas and tried several things which were all of a really high standard. A cosy fire and great wine made it a brilliant choice for us. We will be back over and over again I expect!
J. M.
I went here for a Christmas party with my colleagues. I didn't expect much food-wise but the dinner was fantastic, the ravioli were great and also the creme brulee was delicious. Great beer selection. We came back for dinner with friends some months later, the menu had changed a bit but the food was great again. Can only recommend!
P. W.
Very nice and cosy Gastropub in Galway City. The Food is fabulous.
c. o.
Great location as we were stayi g just a road behind. Very nice serving staff. Good crowd in for a Thursday night. We looked like we were sheltering from Storm Lorenzo in solidarity by stuffing our faces! There was a change in the menu just that night. I ordered pan fried cod, but unfortunately, for me, the roast red pepper(capsicum) sauce just didn't work. It had a sour, bitter taste that took from the chunky cod and messed up the dish. My company had the belly pork, which was a little stringy but tasty. The fish cake looked a treat but was a little on the dry side. All in all, good atmosphere and service but let down by average fare.
g.
Great food and drinks at good prices
J. M.
Really nice food, the lamb shoulder was amazing and my mum had the chowder which she said was really nice. What was most impressive was the service, Kate our waitress was the best we have had anywhere. Attentive, friendly and efficient. Thanks for a great evening.
M. M.
Honestly I would give it 3.5 but I can't here so it's getting a 4 as it doesn't deserve a 3.
We didn't have a booking but it didn't seem very busy yet we had to wait a bit for a table. It's a very casual bistro pub and staff are lovely.
We both had the braised lamb shoulder special which was very good although the mash was luke warm on both dishes. Given that it is essentially pub grub with restaurant style service I think it's quite overpriced.
J. H.
The food highlight of our trip to Ireland. This place is a gem!!! Everything was fantastic.
S.
Amazing meal, best in a long time! I had the steak and my girlfriend had the lamb. Both delicious! Whiskey peppercorn sauce was incredible. Very well cooked. Friendly service and lovely pub atmosphere!
M. C.
Great food especially the steak and fish. The staff are excellent . The pub are is very attractive ,quaint but refurbished . Nice little books beside the window looking on to Dominick street. Nice lighting. Only negative is that the music can be a bit loud.
J. T.
Excellent meal! We are a family of 6 and it was impossible to find a table to fit us all on main pedestrian area. We crossed the river to John Keogh and the place was large and friendly. Service was fast and efficient. Food choices were many and quality was superb. Highly recommend!
A. F.
Great pub with great Guinness and deceptively delicious food. The staff were also very friendly and welcoming. They even went as far as a birthday dessert for my GF!
M. D.
Fab evening with good food and excellent service
K. I.
Terrific experience, had a great time here. Staff was friendly, Aaron and Danny are the best!
M. D. M.
Great service, cool lighting and fixtures. Felt pretty authentic, as an out of towner! We had thr gnocchi (a bit sweet, with a great subtle mustard sauce) and the chicken (white meat was a bit dry, but gravy more than made up for it!)
M. K.
Every time they deliver! We like to go there as the food is always nice and the service take good care of us. Last time we had fish and chips and stuffed chicken. Both dishes were well worth their price and we even had desserts!
G. M. H.
Food is excellent! I would recommend booking as it can get quite busy on weekends. Been to Galway twice and both times I ate here. The tapas is so delicious. Can get noisy sometimes and in some parts of the restaurant it was so dark we couldn't read the menu but they let us move and were very accommodating.
M. R.
Nice! We had dinner with my friend there, he had a really nice piece of meat, delicious he said. I had fish and chips, it was awesome! Service is good and not too long. And the place is nice. I totally recommend it!
W. B.
Amazing place with great staff and brilliant food , highly recommend the mussels !
L. H.
Nice athomsphere, great food! Especially the mussels were amazing
P. T.
Rack of Lamb dish was fabulous. Finished the whole thing, which I can rarely do. Bar tender was a friendly Irish dude and made the experience even more fun. Glad we walked in off the street!
D. H.
Went here for a 50th birthday party recently. Great atmosphere - place was nicely full with several parties in the bar and the restaurant was full also. Plenty of seating and the finger food was nice (wasnt paying for it so not sure on price). Service staff were quick and courteous. Everyone seemed very happy!
N. M.
Great atmosphere, friendly service, very tasty food. Menu not hugely extensive but very flexible with turning starters into main dishes. Worth a visit. Prices good for quality of food.
K. L.
Food was top notch: we had the autumn salad and the rib eye, and both were perfect! Very friendly staff. A bit of a wait but it was unexpectedly buzzing on a Tuesday.
A. O. R.
Food is absolutely fabulous and very good prices. Great atmosphere and beautiful pub. Great staff and covid management was excellent.
L. B.
Having read some favourable reviews here I decided to drop in on my last trip to Galway. To say I was blown away is an understatement!
From the incredibly courteous wait staff to the almost overly delicious food I could not endorse this place more. The pork belly starter will fondly be remember as the nicest pork I've had in Ireland, possibly ever!
My only disappointment is that I didn't order the home made pasta which, as I found out from both other parties at my table, was some of the best pasta they've ever had! The small taste I had certainly agreed with their assertions.
I couldn't recommend the place higher and will certainly be coming back on my next visit! 5/5
S. M.
Great food, and great service. The Guiness is very good per my other half who sampled several. Lots of space. Really reccomend this place !
D. C.
We had a slight hiccup on a booking which was corrected by Matt the owner, upon arriving at John Keoghs we were impressed. Lovely warm welcoming pub, with excellent staff that are very eager to help you with any choice you make. A deliberately small menu of food that is food done extremely well. Starters that are amazing, a main course to die for and a dessert to kill you off...😊. Also an excellent 25 Gin menu that is being expanded...excellent location
S. V.
One of my favourite pubs/restaurants in Galway. The staff are lovely, the food is aaaaaamazing, and they have really nice booths where you can hide away from other customers, and just get more privacy and have an actual conversation with your friends. Definitely recommend the fish and chips! Better than Mcdonagh's! You have raised the bar even higher!
L. M.
Great food, great atmosphere, great staff. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back.
U.
Good drinks, nice pint of Guinness. Crowd is kinda mainstream with some money, which is not my cup of tea, but the place is clean and new, and they have a couple of very well organised dedicated spaces for private parties. No smoking area, you'll need to smoke on a busy and crammed sidewalk. Ambient music is basic commercial stuff, which grates my nerves. Fourth star for the lovely dining area staff and the good food and pint.
L. B.
Nice & cozy atmosphere (lots of books!) and decent food. Not too many options but the fish and chips we had were ok.
N. S.
The food is really good just a few minor adjusments. Apart from that great atmosphere and friendly staff
T. M.
Amazing. Superb beer. Delicious fish&chips. Personnel is very kind and prices affordable. The place is located in the city centre and is an original Irish pub. Suggested
R. M.
This would be one of 1st choices for a night out in Galway. The pub has an old Irish feel to it a good atmosphere. Went here for Fathers Day, had the burger and a couple pints of Guinness which werr magnificent.
M. G.
Amazing pub, quintessentially Irish and the prefect place to visit if you’ve just come into town. Bar service is friendly, genuine and warm. 10/10 food, service, people
C. R.
We had the best Pub Tapas here since we've been in Ireland! We had mussels, chicken wings, potato Wedges and salad.
good atmosphere, delicious food, friendly staff.
nothing to complain about!
M. B.
Great double-bone chicken wings, 10oz 28 day dry-aged sirloin was to die for! Our server brought us a fudge brownie for our honeymoon- so special. Highly recommend for getting off of the beaten track - but highly walkable from city centre across the bridge.
A. C.
Really excellent food! Slow cooked lamb, salmon and sole duo, and a bucket of muscles. Friendly service from manager and server. Highly recommended 😁
D. P.
Good food. Nice atmosphere. Can get very busy and cramped at times. But still very nice

Lovely pub and great food
C. N.
Excellent food and great service in a quieter part of town but only a short walk from the centre. Recommended by our hotel. We only had one night in Galway so Im glad we spent it here.
J. M.
Lovely ambience, food was really fresh and tasty pub grub. It deserves all its awards. Very reasonable prices for lunch too.
J. F.
Female barmaid has absolutely no manners or personality and was very unhelpful when asked a simple question. The male who served us was very nice and friendly and helpful. Toilets very clean
s. m.
Nice location, friendly staff, good atmosphere. Food was unremarkable, we had a large group and I don't think any one was particularly impressed or disappointed. Nice soup actually, but not much generally for vegetarians.
f. t.
Fish n chips were good and so was the beer but 5.80€ for a pint of local beer? Cmon! Music was lousy too so 3 stars seems more than fair
C. L.
Food and place really good. Customer service not the greatest. We had a group of waitresses that were not in their best day.
P. F.
Keogh’s is an excellent restaurant - Went with my wife Christina and the food was so so good.
Emma served us and the service was top notch 10/10
I had the Lamb and Christina had Chicken- So Good
We will be back real soon...
Padraic and Christina

School Reunion Spoiled by Head Bouncer
We had our reunion here from 2pm with bar food. Drink and food were very good with good service from staff. Bouncer decided that one of our party would not get back in from his cigarette break at front door because he didn't like what he heard him say. Wouldn't even let him back in for his jacket. Very poor treatment of their customers. A bad bouncer is someone that can't handle the authority that goes with the job. And this man was definitely one of them. We all (25 of us) then had to leave and went to the Dew drop inn.... We won't be going back to the Lockkeeper in a hurry
s. a.
Party of 9 people, served timely without much wait. Hot, fresh, amazing quality seafood. Amazing service, very accommodating for families.

Love Meal and really nice staff
P. L.
Recently visited this pub but felt unless we were having food, we were corralled into a corner as tables had been booked. Such a pity as pub looks nice.
M. J.
Great food, excellent service. Nice place just far away enough from the High St madness of Galway. Trust the rest of the reviews - it's a really nice place.
R. T.
Lovely finger food. Bar Service was only ok though and would have expected more. Long wait to get a beer!
A. S.
Amazing food. Definitely one of the best places in Galway - haven't seen many thou, but no need to explore other places after John keogh's. 100/100 points.
L. C.
Enjoyed our evening
Food good. Our waitress very pleasant.
B. C.
It is a well laid out and decorated pub but is lacking a bit of atmosphere,I feel this will improve with time,as it is a relatively new pub,food is good, enjoy

Top class service and food

For a new build this pub made me feel at home immediately, food has been fabulous, customer care couldn't be faulted, just get the other tap in the ladies running and it's a perfect addition to my home back the west..

Always great food, pretty sure the only reason my mother and father visit me in Galway is so they can pop in for food and drinks, I can't complain though they're buying 5/5

Very nice, scampi a bit dry, fish batter a bit oily, but spring rolls & steak delicious.

Great location and nice staff. If you're arriving in a group try and book a table ahead of time as it tends to be a popular location on Friday and Saturday.

Good food and beverage but lack of honesty. When you forget the order, just tell the truth! Customers aren't necessarily idiots!

Great food very tasty we tried soup, bravas, burgers and lamb. Try to book in advance

We dropped in to John Keogh's for a bite before a party in the back later. First thing is the place is beautiful, real traditional vibe. There were loads of staff around and all helpful and friendly. The food was very good. The menu had about five starters and five mains. Burger was and chips were great. The fish was really fresh and tasty. The ribs just fell apart. Really good spot. The staff were the stand out feature.

(Translated) Two main courses, two coffees and a beer for € 40.10. Rich food, and normal portions. It is not in the central street where all the bars and shops are, but a 5 'walk from that area, in a quieter street. Perfect excuse to dine here and then go to that street for a drink.

Dos platos principales, dos cafés y una cerveza por 40,10€. Comida rica, y raciones normales.
