Vegan review: I got a chai latte to start with and ordered whatever the special was, basically a beautiful Thai red tasting curry with brown rice. It was so flavoursome and lovely. My hubby (omnivore) got the Mexican sweet potato bowl and really enjoyed it. I then got a mint tea and lovely carrot cake. Service was great and staff were really friendly. Would definitely recommend it!

A. M.

Great place for lunch. Stopped off here by chance, and we loved it. Great food, friendly staff and quick service.

N. S.

Such a great place to have all the vegan food from the menu, really loved the selection of items on the menu, we tried beat root soup and pancake it's was very yummy and good quantity. Loved the service and ambient inside the restaurant. I will go and try the rest menu for sure.

S. K.

Amazing food! The vegan hot chocolate was so tasty and the special of the day with red lentils and burger were perfect! Also grabbed one of their many vegan baking options for a snack later on!

M. A.

Delicious vegan and vegetarian food in Galway! Highly recommend for other vegans/vegetarians. They have a small menu but do everything well. Prices are reasonable for the size and quality of the dish. They also have daily changing specials. Coffee is also good here and they make cakes and slices to have there or take away. Staff are also friendly. Definitely recommend.

C. V.

The place to go if you're vegetarian, homemade and organic food, the food is delicious and it has a beautiful presentation. The service is great. Its open till 6.

A. S.

Beautiful decor, a nice little cafe. Polite staff. We tried the cappecinno here, which was little too sweet for my taste buds. I think it was the chocolate. The cakes menu had limited options. Might try again here for other items, may be not.

L. m.

We ate there 2 years ago and became my favorite place in Galway. The food was perfect and it is cooked with love. I hope to have the opportunity to return to Ireland and discover new dishes of Lighthouse Cafe!

R. G. W.

Loved it!!! Fantastic food- so flavourful! Great desserts too. A must go to!

L. E.

the vegan carrot cake is one of the best things i have ever eaten. i got a cibatta as well it was delicous. staff were also so kind ;))) love it

D. E.

Lots of great gluten free and vegan options. Would have enjoyed some baked beans with my vegan fry-up though.

F. T.

Very cozy place, friendly staff and a huge burger plate! Even though the menu is not too big, there is an option for everyone (plus you can decide quicker) always with a different daily soup and hot pot. The burger is massive and the menu gives the non vegan ones the option to add blue cheese to some of the plates. Definitely have a brownie and a coffee afterwards! SIDE NOTE: tables are mostly for two, if you are with more people, plan in some waiting time.

s.

Very cute small café, the staff was very nice and knew about the vegan options. The brownie was delicious (slightly expensive though). Would’ve loved to try out the vegan hot chocolate!

A. W.

This place is a little gem. The staff are friendly and helpful. And the vegan cheese and onion swirl is absolutely delicious. Great coffee too. Highly recommend.

Delight for Vegans and Vegetarians alike! Love their food and soups.

G. K.

This sweet and cozy café was pretty kind to let us put some candles and give us the opportunity to celebrate my friend's b-day with vegan cakes! Both cakes were amazing without doubts, however the lemon one takes the prize for me! Recommend :)

R. T.

Ya'll have to try the vegan feta, artichoke and tapenade sandwich here. So fresh and satisfying!

F. B.

Excellent food. Not vegan or vegetarian myself and I come here regularly when looking for good quality healthy food that's reasonably priced. The staff are friendly and service is great but some of the tables are a bit small, particularly if you're a tall individual.

A. M. M.

Rare vegan restaurant in Galway. Very affordable.

G. P. B.

Really nice veg. sandwiches and great staff 👍

I. W.

I recently went here for my first time. The food is absolutely delicious. I love the fact that it is all vegetarian. I love trying new dishes and The Light House certainly did not disappoint. I was there at lunch time with a young kid in a buggy that made it a little awkward as there is not a lot of seating. We managed to tuck the buggy in out of the way. I hope to return soon.

K.

Lovely café, beautiful space, delicious food, friendly staff. I had a lovely lunch the other day: the main course special: ragu with side salad and grains, all well balanced, great flavors. I highly recommend this place. I'll be back for sure.
