Best Full Irish Breakfast in Galway!!??

Buzz Buzz

Just wondering where is the best place for a serious full Irish breakfast.. I like The Cellars and The Homeplate do a pretty mean one too!! So where is else can ya proper breakfast???

Personal favourite for a giant plate of fried meat with trimmings : Living Room.
Depending on your taste, you might like the breakfast in Ard Bia. Gubeen smoked bacon and sausages. And they do a mean cup of tea. Though their breakfasts are a little on the small side, they're fecking tasty.

Always found the living room skank and lacking, especially their skank ass beans. As for O'Riordans, Hell ya Always rolled outta der with a full happy belly :-)

I've had hangover brekkie in numerous haunts over the last years. Here are the results of my findings:

1, Lohan's, Salthill. Tastiest breakfast in Galway. Quality food (including Colleran's pudding - yummy!), strong coffee, comfy seating, friendly staff (although not the fastest).

2, Cellar, Eglinton Street. Similar to above but just not as tasty.

3, GPO, Eglinton St (I must admit I haven't been there for about 2 years). Where quantity overcomes quality! A big plate full of greasy calories to keep you full for the day.

4, Huntsman, College Road. Nice breakfast on the other side of town. It's hard to get the attention of the staff though.

5, Lynch's, Shop Street. Best for value and choice and speed. A buffet style breakfast where you pay per item. In hindsight, it doesn't deserve to be fifth but nonody will beat Lohan's.


This morning, I had Corn Flakes at home :mad:

Trisha's, a wee place around the corner from the back entrance of the Eyre Square Shopping Centre. 10 outta 10

Hands down, o riordans, on quay street. all for 6 or 7 euro i think..its other half is finnegans near cps..they almost have the same breakfast except they give wedges instead of yum crispy potato slices...

I like Finnegans.

Black_Knight

Finnigans is the best IMO. Plenty of food for your euro. Its a great treat after a hard night out.
Its beside CPs

Monroes but be prepared to wait for a while

O'Riordan's do an awesome breakfast, great value for money too.

Café de Journal on quay street is my absolute winner..few different breakfast options including great veggie option. Not in anyway greasy, nice brown bread...want one now

Fey!

Riordans or Lynches. (Aren't Riordans and Finnegans the same?)

Except they only do fry's on Monday/Friday - but it's a buffet with decent quality sausages/rahsers/pudding/hash brownes etc. etc. and its all free muwah

Agree with Lohans..had full irish on sat....unreal.

fast too...probably depends on the crowd at the time of ordering..was in at 10.15 and it wasnt that busy either.

qft, though it's hard to get a place there sometimes.

Galway Plate is good, I've heard O'Riordans but never been there...I like The Galway Arms myself...pretty generous and the oul lad behind the bar seems sound and its a nice quiet place...you'd never be waiting too long

the whole year inn

cellar is way to slow and I dont like the place, Riordans ftw or make your own you lasy sod

Tar.Aldarion

Riordans. Anybody saying finnagans is wrong because both places serve the same food but finnagans is a bit more expensive. Also the staff in riordans are nicer. Quite friendly.

They know what I order in riordans at this stage.

given up on the auld vegetarianism?

Tar.Aldarion

My friends eat the full irish, I eat their vegetarian breakfast which is delicious. Costs 6.90. Nyom nyom.

Agreed that the Cellar takes ages, but they do have some quality full-irish at a good price considering. I also like the Homeplate ones with their homefries.

Yum.

Isn't Café du Journal gone now and replaced with a steakhouse? Or is it back?



This thread is great, going to include a list of fry-up joints on my wedding invites and ye took all the work out of it.

Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

It's like 70c difference for the exact same food for my brekkie so it is not the best!

I prefer the location of Finnegans tbh. I'll still eat there when I can!

Tar.Aldarion

Well if you are happier with more expensive food(smaller cups of oj too!) not as good staff(free refills baby!) just because quay street(??) is not as good location then eat away! ;-)

I do eat in Finnagans when Riordan's is full though.

Sherifu

I intend to! *nyom* *nyom* *nyom*

Monroes Tavern used do a fantastic fry/grill years ago when I was in School and I would assume they still do, so did the Lisheen which is now the Living Room.
