Restaurant Review

The Skeff Bar & Kitchen

Lively, central bar-and-kitchen with live music and solid comfort food.

01 The Arrival

Huge and spread across multiple floors, but still manages to feel lively rather than confusing — right on Eyre Square, so it's a convenient stop when wandering the city centre.

02 The Food

Wild Atlantic chowder and chicken wings to share, then a beef burger and chips — hearty, tasty bar food that isn't trying to be Michelin-starred and doesn't need to be.

03 The Experience

Upbeat, friendly service even when the place is packed.

04 Was It Worth It?

Good value, especially if you're after food and drinks rather than a formal restaurant experience.

05 The Verdict

Brilliant atmosphere with live music most nights — better for a fun night out than a quiet dinner, and can get noisy and busy.

Location — 27 Eyre Square, Galway, H91 A0V2, Ireland
