    Afaik:
    Al Muretto, Forster Street and Malt House, High Street.

    Best ring to confirm first though.

    Gemelles on Quay St. does a good Early Bird menu, I think it's €20 - Quality of food there good and the menu is quite varied.

    The Vina Mara one is amazing, had it about two weeks ago. Best dinner I have had in a long time.

    KC Blakes do a good early bird too.

    Best Ive seen (but not tried) is The Pucan 8.95 for soup and main before 6. Or the Italian beside the hostel on Quay St. Starter, main and drink for 15ish anytime.

    Hi all, three of us are heading to galway on Sat night, for a bit of pampering, shopping, eating and drinking.

    Could you recommend a nice place to eat with an early bird special?

    Any beauty salons doing deals at the mo??

    Thanks a million

    Vina Mara, hands down just amazing. I can't be sure but I think it was around the €30 mark. Worth every cent.

    Went to Kirby's this evening, got a 3 course meal and a free drink after in Busker's, all for €25.

    Food was great.

    Had three courses and a cup of coffee in Thai Gardens for 17.50. Think it's from 5-7 and they don't do it on Sundays or Bank Holidays.

    Also had starter, main course and a bottle of wine (for two) in Kashmir for 50 euro.

    Absolutely lovely in there, they used to have beef on the early bird menu.

    Delicious!

    Do Malt House still do their early bird? Good price, amazing food last I was there.

    I checked out Cactus Jacks a few weeks back. €20 (maybe €25) for a starter, mains, and a glass of wine. Again, lovely food, good value for money and very nice staff.

    That's not always on, at least the last time I was in.
    BKs has been closed for a few nights:eek: Not sure what'll happen, but I know from Marcel, there'll be some changes I think.

    Hope it is going to continue, I LOVE that place.

    Il Folletto, although they increased prices for the summer, still do a lovely early bird - 2 courses and wine/beer for 18.50 I believe. Lovely staff and grub.

    Cactus Jacks? aka Hen night home, don't go near it on the weekend unless you like sitting among stag and hen parties. Haven't heard a single good thing about it. Only reason it survives is because it is so welcoming of hen and stag nights.

    Martines does a fabulous early bird.

    Added to that the fact that Cactus Jacks is possibly the worst food in Galway...

    Yeh i totally agree, the beef in there is amazing. it looks a bit small cos they dont give side orders, but at 10 euro its a bargain. great restaurant overall, had 3 types of cod risotto there before too, one of the nicest meals ive had in my life. staff are nice too
