About Us

  After staying overnight in jury's.... Not a good experience! We decided to go into town to eat and we found blakes brasserie and what a gem. Lovely homely place, extensive... read more menu and great service. We were looked after by Ulick and he couldn't have done more. He made us feel so welcome and the food was devine. Will definitely be back
Thanks for making our trip to Galway so much better.

  Nice spot food was lovely handy location. A bit pricey went for anniversary as a treat. Staff were lovely

  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.

  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!

  We went here as a group and were very pleased for choosing this restaurant. It was very cozy and warm. The staff went out of their way to accommodate such... read more a large crowd. The food was delicious and prompt in being served. The chicken and trout dishes were out of this world.

  Went for dinner with my wife for our anniversary. I had the Pre Theater menu and my wife of course the Ribeye. Unreal. I thought I had lamb before, I... read more was wrong. This was simply amazing. Ask for a spoon for the most tender and flavoursome meat in the world.

  Being newly diagnosed as coeliac I was apprehensive about eating out for the first time as a coeliac. Didnt want to be a "nuisance". I mentioned to the waitress that... read more I was coeliac and she told me virtually all the menu could be adapted to meet my needs. She was going to bring me some gluten free bread and without being prompted she knew my wife would need a seperate butter ramekin. My starter only needed slight modifying, it was chicken and chorizo terine, it was absolutely delicious. My main was a lovely steak with gluten free batter onion rings.
Thanks to all who work there, will definitely call again next time I am in Galway

  The food and service in this restaurant is second to none. The starters of mussels and goats cheese with a choice of in house brown bread were delicious and mains... read more of lamb and hake were both cooked to perfection. Sides of fresh vegetables and chips were piping hot. The staff were very friendly and have safe comfortable guidelines in place in the restaurant and bar during covid. Reasonably priced. Will be back again and soon

  My partner and I had a late lunch here on the 15th of March. The restaurant was relatively quiet which was to be expected due to the upcoming pandemic. The... read more manager came to our table to take our order. I've never been served by someone so rude. She was rushed and when we asked her a question regarding the menu she raised her voice giving us an abrupt unhelpful answer and exhaled loudly shaking her head. When we asked to see another menu she threw it on our table instead of placing it down. No eye contact, manners or even a smile. It made us feel terrible. Thought it was her manner but then heard her speak to the next table that were seated and she was so nice to them. Once we had paid our bill I asked to speak to the manager and she seemed shocked to hear we had such a bad experience with her. She said all she can say is sorry and it was probably to do with it being the time of day we arrived as that is the change over time. There is no excuse for the behavior towards a customer. Will never be eating here again.

  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 is a wonderful place to eat which is attached to Blakes Bar which is another of my favorite places in Galway. We visited this time for lunch with friends... read more and were not disappointed...food ...service and ambience are all first rate...thanks,

  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 food was fabulous and the desert was... read more to die for. It was a Knickerbocker glory and we both agreed it was the best weve ever had.
Let's not forget the staff as they were friendly and extremely efficient. The chefs and those working in the kitchen are obviously amazing too.
Will definitely be back again. Well done to all who work here.

  We walked in without a reservation and they were very accommodating.Fish was delicious and the wine was good too. The chowder had way too much cream though. Service was fast... read more and friendly. Nothing memorable but lovely food and good value altogether I recommend 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.

  My boyfriend and I thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We shared mussels in a beautiful white wine cream sauce and smoked duck and duck spring roll starter.

  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.

  Arrived with no booking on a busy night. Host that greeted us was exceptionally friendly. Food was top class. Great atmosphere. Spotlessly clean. And the bread made in house by... read more chef was left us wanting to buy the loaves!! Unreal all round

  Beautiful food. The best beef we have eaten so far in Ireland (and we have been eating beef a lot on our long trip).

The berry compote... I... read more could eat that for breakfast,lunch and dinner.. zingy, not too sweet, soft.. gorgeous food.

The staff is polite and very friendly.

Thank you for letting us have this experience on a short booking notice.

  This was our first time having dinner here in this restaurant on a Sunday evening in September. The restaurant was full off people which was great to see. It is... read more a very romantic restaurant with low key lighting. I wasn't disappointed on the food that we received. The service was excellent, and must compliment the staff on our attention and were very accommodating. The portion sizes were good, and the taste was excellent. We had plenty of time to have our meal and we were not rushed at all. We would highly recommend this restaurant, and will be returning in the near future.

  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.

  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 just happened to arrive in Galway the day the restaurants opened inside.... what luck! Especially as the weather had been amazing and then turned to rain!

From the... read more moment we walked in the staff were so friendly and attentive! Especially our waitress Aoife!
It was my 40th birthday and they brought us a complimentary glass of prosecco... the food was amazing!
We had mussels and ravioli to start followed by beef Wellington. Couldn't resist a wee cheeky desert to share. We had the creme brulee yummy!

Highly recommend this place and if we ever are back in Galway would 100 percent return!

  I highly recommend Brasserie on the Corner. The food is just brilliant with large portions and very reasonably priced. The staff are just brilliant, so attentive. We went for lunch... read more and we could not fault it.

  Booked dinner here last night for three friends and hadn't been here in a couple of years and the service and standard of food is still top class in Galway.... read more We had a lovely table near the window, there was plenty of social distancing between tables and their new lay out is lovely. The service should be applauded and management and the team should be proud, they are very attentive and check on you through out your meal and are so friendly. The manager who has been there for a long time runs a tight ship and it is clear when there is not a single thing you could or should fault this restaurant on.
The food then also is fantastic- we all ordered three Fillet Steaks, mine was a little more pink to what I would like- No fault of the kitchen but of me because I am only learning to be brave enough to not order a steak that is not well done- they brought it back for me and cooked it a little more- out of this world- chips delicious and a fabulous selection of sauces to choose from.
Thank you for a thoroughly enjoyable meal and we will be back again soon to treat ourselves to a nice dinner.
