After a few pints, the best burger in the world is from Charcoal Grill.

Kebab House, Dominic St.

Boogaloo is gone.

Dont get beef burgers in takeaways as they tend to be just frozen ones, but you cant beat the Chicken Fillet Burger in Charcoal.

Scotty's Steakhouse in Cúirt na Coiribe by a long-shot these days.

Are we allowed access to a time machine? If so, Scotty's Grill/Casual Gourmet on Middle St. back in the 90's. Same chef and family, but with added nostalgia!

Capones in Knocknacarra. If you haven't tried one, you don't know what you're missing. Seriously.

+1 for Capones
-1 for Scotty's

Capones is lovely. Scotty's has declined rapidly most especially the non burger stuff such as their fries, chicken and salad. Their burgers are fine but not exceptional. I'd prefer Eddie Rocket's .

Capones is top notch but you can't get a beer there.

Oddly enough Sheridans just up the street do an excellent cheeseburger also. Defo get a beer there.

Id go for Lasala. i usually eat in the mary street in.
Lovely burger that is actual mince and not overcooked like eddie rockets tend to be.

I think Homeplate make a mean Burger.

Same as Lasalsa actually. They share a back kitchen and ingredients. I'm just rarely in town early enough for home plate

You can get bottled beers in Capones but dont think there's taps

Seriously? For years I moaned how knocknacarra didn't have a chipper and now we finally have one I've never been! I find that building off-putting. Is there parking somewhere behind or underneath? Are they open? You just never know. I've called by a few times after the pub but they were closed.

I don't know what it is, probably just too much food, but I always regret eating at Scotty's or Eddie Rocket's. The aftermath of having to digest those grease pattys just isn't worth it.

+1 for capones, best burgers and chips for miles, and alot cheaper than Sheridans, which is nice but more expensive.

Newkie, the parking is behind the building, left turn after capones. They have a large neon "open" sign at the front, when it's not on, well, you get the idea in fairness it's not a post-pub kind of place, more of a family restaurant. They're open all day and till 11 at weekends I think.

I love their soup and wrap lunch special for €5, really good value and always hearty homemade soup. It's a great addition to knocknacarra.

Home made ftw. I get something I'd never get in a restaurant, and it's cooked how I like it.

Don't encourage it.

Another vote for Capone's. Food there is surprisingly good. Ample parking round the back. They also do a fry-up on Sunday's that you can get delivered - some day...

barone

id agree with capones myself .. delicious burgers.. capones and scottys for me

dinneenp

I was suprised and disappointed with the fries in Scottys. Thought they'd be handcut but just seamed like standard frozen ones.

I have to say the nicest Burger I've had in Galway was in the Townhouse about 2 months ago. I think it's 2 for 1 on a Tuesday too (if that's still on)

Monster burger from the kebab house. You know its a good burger when the staff always look shocked when you order it! I've hoffed that burger on the floor after many a nights out I'm proud to say.

I think their shock is more to do with the fact some people still get food there

factual lies

does anyone know if capones do deliveries to the other side of town or are they just locally based?

Aye, I got the Monster burger once but couldn't finish it. The burgers might be nicer there because I only eat there when drunk but goddammit they're nice.

Ordered a collection for myself and my nephew as I only live a minutes drive away. Picked it up and by the time I was back home the food was barely warm, it had to be reheated. The chips were poor, stuck together in a big lump and very greasy, likewise the nuggets tasted bland more quantity than quality. Opened up the pizza and it was loaded with cheese way too much and hardly any of the toppings ordered whatsoever it was terrible value, tasteless and about as cheap as you can get, it was like a frozen pizza you would get in a supermarket.This was on a Sunday afternoon and there were only a handful of people in their at the time.

Never had any of these problems whenever I ordered from them.
