About Us

  Thoroughly enjoyed Brasserie. Excellent menu (steaks, seafood, chicken, pasta, oysters, salads, sandwiches, dessert) to choose from. Had a wonderful steak & my wife had the best scallops we've ever had.... read more Terrific wine selections as well as a full bar. Dessert was fantastic as was the Jameson Black we paired it with. With two sides of the house - Brasserie is great for those interested in getting a couple of drinks & others who are in the mood for a fine dining night. Service was the best we had in Galway!

  Really delicious steaks. I ordered medium rare filet and that's I received. Staff is helpful and professional. Prices on medium stage, but it's definately worth it. Great place to evening... read more time out.

  Had lunch here recently. The Chowder was to die for. Creamy and full of flavour. I had a gorgeous tartlet afterward as I was too stuffed for a mains. Very... read more friendly attentive staff.

  It was my birthday and looking at the reviews we picked this restaurant. The food was excellent. The problem we ran into was the waitress was obviously new and she... read more definitely had problems. She never came back to check on us. My brother-in-law went to speak to the manager. He made sure everything was taken care of and made sure she had some assistance. He took care of everything and thats all one could ask for. We would definitely go back. Because we left satisfied that's why I gave it 5 stars. It was a Friday night and quite busyI would definitely get reservations .

  In a traditional pub setting, just off the beaten track, great food, good atmosphere, excellent service.
I had the fillet, a bit expensive at €31 but it was fantastic and... read more cooked perfectly.
Definitely recommended.
Dress smart.

  We had a pre-theatre dinner here before going to the Town Hall Theatre which is less than 5 minutes walk away. The Brasserie is comfortable and has plenty of tables... read more - not obvious from the outside. Menu for pre- theatre was good with several choices of starter, main and dessert. Service very friendly and food tasty. I had sea bass and my husband had lamb shoulder which he enjoyed. Starter of goats cheese and beetroot was tasty although it was billed as having candied walnuts. We couldn’t see or taste any and on asking were told that some walnuts were grated over the dish. Good wine menu available.

  Always come here for special occasions and have never been disappointed! Food is delicious and always perfect, every staff member is as friendly as the next and super helpful! The... read more atmosphere is really lovely too. Definitely recommend coming here if your looking for a comfortable, cosy and classy meal!

  Extremely tasty food, excellent beer and tbeautiful interior.
Had to wait for a vacant table for some time, but waiting at the bar was more than pleasant!

  Excellent dinner meal with a wonderful bottle of wine too! The scallops were “melt in your mouth”. Steak perfectly done! But the best was the scalloped potatoes - OMG!

  A group of us came for lunch and all really enjoyed our food. The fish and chips were GF and tasted amazing. Highly recommended, especially as I don't get to... read more eat fish and chips often. The rest of the group were happy with their dishes...More

  My family and I are here for my sisters post graduation celebration and it was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We had a wide array of what’s on... read more offer and every last bite was delicious. Great selection of wines and cocktails on offer to wash it all down with and the value for money was unbelievable. All this was matched by the friendly and professional service of Rachel who took wonderful care of us. Will definitely recommend to all going to Galway and can’t wait to come back. Thanks again for looking after us!

  Just found the restaurant on google, nice old world charm place, very good food with a nice glass of red wine for late lunch "yummy"

  Very good service and the food was delicious no room for complaints ! The interior is nice and cozy though elegant we liked it.

  Second time to dine here we were on a short break in Galway and managed to get a reservation during race week. The quality of the food was second to... read more none both my wife and I went for fish for both starters and mains and the flavours of all dishes left us salivating. The staff were fantastic and answered any questions we had and the meal was topped off with a delightful shared cookie and cream cheesecake that was to die for. I can’t recommend this establishment highly enough apart from wishing I lived in Galway. Top notch

  We went to brasserie on the corner after hearing of their amazing reputation and they definitely lived up to it. The steaks were cooked exactly how we requested, wait staff... read more went out of their way to accommodate any requests we had. The menu has incredible choice and the service was the best I’ve had in Ireland absolutely.

  Saw this restaurant while on a hop on hop off bus tour and had to make our way back for lunch. It did not disappoint. We started with a seafood... read more board... yum. Then on to the main courses. All of which I wouldn’t hesitate to eat again. But the thing I’ll dream about... the sticky toffee pudding. Best I have ever eaten. Period. If you go you have to try it.

  We had a table booked for 8pm and arrived a little early so had a drink in the bar which was nice. From the moment we got our table we... read more felt rushed. While the waiting were very efficent they were not overly friendly. My husband had the soup which he enjoyed but while he was eating his soup the waitress came over 3 or 4 times and looked into the bowl to see if he had finished we found this uncomfortable as we were trying to chat and had to keep stopping. He ordered the steak (28 euro) which was small and rubbery. He had trouble cutting it as it was tough. Certainly not worth the money. I had the platter while it was nice it was not anything special (20 euro) the smoked salmon was fine again nothing special. The prawns were tiny. The crackers were hard and pretty tasteless. And again the same waitress was looking into our plates every 10 seconds. Not what i was expecting at all overpriced and we left feeling disappointed rushed and still hungry.

  FAMILY get together today. Mussels starter in congealed sauce (forgot order and delivered with main course after reminding), also soggy chips, burnt fish x 1,luke warm soup & mixed up... read more orders( forgot 1 person main also),the belt(blt) was streaky rasher, not herterichs prime and miserable baguette, which was left behind . It wasn't busy, 3pm but we had 3 different servers so that contributed to the mistakes that happened. On the upside, the steak was nice, 2 fish orders fine,drinks delivered promptly. It'sa pity that attention to orders was neglectful today, probably manager off as on previous visits someone always checked if all ok. To be fair, one waitress apologised but not reflected in bill.

  One of our best meals in Ireland, the steak was well prepared. You choose your cut of beef, whether you want the chef to grill it or cook it yourself... read more on a stone, the level of heat or doneness, and the sauce you would like. My husband got the pepper sauce which was great, and I got the red wine sauce which was also good.

  Had a visit there recently and it was recommended to us and it certainly lived up to it’s recommendation. Nice menu good wine and great service. I had the fish... read more full board for a main and two things the fish was delicious but a half portion ( which you can get) would have been sufficient. But well worth a visit

  After a long day visiting the Cliffs of Moher, driving through the Burren, and dealing with a flat tire on the hired car, we were warmly welcomed with no reservation... read more and treated like family. Every single staff member we encountered was marvelous, from the hostess to the bartender to our waitress and additional servers who were very solicitous. The Irish Whiskey recommendation of Green Spot from the bartender hit the spot! The food was absolutely delicious. It was an absolutely perfect ending to our day in western Ireland!

  First meal out since lockdown. Well worth it!!
Got the prawns to start and the 10oz steak *medium was 10/10.
Staff were very friendly. Will definitely be back!

  5 star all the way for service, atmosphere and food. Out with my wife on a rare date night on what was a very busy Arts Festival evening. The staff... read more could not have been more accommodating.

We had the bar menu as we hadnt booked the restaurant but steaks were an option which is the signature meal of Brasserie We were not let down as the two steaks were cooked to perfection (medium well and well done). Drinks were fresh and the bar staff very friendly. One female staff member in particular who was operating the table service was an absolute pleasure and took great pride in her job.

Looking forward to the next date night!

  Beautiful food and wine sitting in the window watching the world go by.. couldn’t recommend enough.. very friendly staff..

  Nice decor and good fare but the continuous loop of Hits from the 50’s and 60’s playing in the background and the Warsaw Pact customer service offered by their Eastern... read more European staff detract from what could be a great dining experience.

  After a long awaited and needed night in a nice restraunt we booked into The Brasserie (known as Blakes locally).

They had a great variety of food on the... read more menu and the premises are extremely well decorated with such a beautiful ambiance.

We both had the sirloin steak and it is one of the nicest steaks I've eaten. I ordered mine to be medium/pink and it was still a little under done for me. I was still okay to eat it and it was just as nice as to my preference for a more well done steak. The onion rings are a delicious combo to have with it.

I went for the garlic butter and my partner had the pepper whiskey sauce, slightly a little watery but tasted delicious.

I ordered from the wine menu and went with the staffs choice. It was quiet a nice wine and the selection on the menu was brilliant.

Usually we only have dinner as we do be too full for dessert but the mains was that good we chose dessert too.

Both of us went for the creme brulee and it was that good I'll be back again just for that.

The staff could not do enough for us and where so warm and welcoming. We enjoyed chatting away with them.

For a nice night out or a special occasion, here is worth a visit.

  We visited this restaurant on our last night in Galway for a romantic meal as we had seen it had such good reviews. The restaurant seemed to have more of... read more a pub vibe but that didn’t bother us too much. I enjoyed my meal and the portion size was just enough but my partner ordered steak which was cooked rare rather than medium. He wasn’t overly bothered about this as it was still edible but it would’ve been nice to have it cooked how he asked. The menu is quite limited to options, don’t know if I would go back here if ever visiting again but what food they had available was very nice.

  My wife and I had dinner tonight at Blake’s. Make this a must stop for dinner when in Galway. She had the tempura fish and I had the sirloin. The... read more meat was perfect. The root veggies were really good and the big onion rings were also very good. Ask for the peppercorn sauce with this meal, it’s so good you could drink it with a straw. The fish and chips was also very good, according to my wife.
Service was right on time too. Christoper and Evan(?sorry I didn’t catch). Very strong dialects in this area, which we love.
And, as every good bar in Ireland the Guinness was perfect and poured perfect.
Perfect dining experience. Thank you

  This is a restaurant well away from the more touristy areas such as Quay Street. The food is excellent. They do bar food during the day and more formal food... read more service in the evening. They had an extenive a-la-carte menu and also a set pre-theatre menu(E23.50 for two courses) which is good value. The two of us shared a starter and desert and had different main course - it was plenty food and very tasty.

  Just outside all the hustle and bustle of the city centre we found this gem of a restaurant. It was early and they were able to accommodate us, but booking... read more for Thu/Fri/Sat/Sun is advisable. The service is friendly, the wine list is good and the atmosphere is relaxed.
The food is great - well prepared and plentiful. We ate a couple of different starters between us. The house soup was excellent. Portion size just about right for a starter. The mussels were fresh and cooked perfectly in a traditional white wine sauce.
Mains were their vegetarian special and the roast lamb. Both excelled in their own way. The lamb was well cooked and not fatty. It was prepared three different ways - all of which were spot on! The vegetarian option was great too. Artistically presented and well cooked. Neither of us was disappointed.

  We booked this restaurant on line 3 weeks ago as it was Saturday 14th December close to Xmas and we knew the restaurants in Galway would be busy. We were... read more a party of 8 who had traveled from England to Watch Gloucester Rugby play Connaught. The only times we could get was 9.15 pm which is a little bit late for us but as most of the restaurants were full, we gladly excepted the booking. Aren't we glad we did. We were welcomed into the restaurant by the host who was very friendly even though the restaurant was very busy. The Barman was brilliant and poured our drinks whilst we waited for our table. Once seated we were entertained by the waitress who extremely charming. We ordered the food and drinks which came without a long wait as it was very busy. None of us had a starter as it quite late but I really fancied the crab. The Mains and Deserts were Excellent and the menu was quite varied. The Brasserie on the Corner (Blakes) deserves the 5 star Excellent rating we gave it, all 8 of us can thoroughly Recommend it. Well Done Brilliant!!!

  This restaurant is the best in the West, beautiful food , I have dined here since it opened and the food is only delicious
