    Looking for a nice place to have dinner with a couple of friends on Friday night. We'll be coming from out of town and don't know the city well, but want a place that's quiet enough to chat. Any suggestions?

    How many people are you expecting? Do you have a food preference? Do you have a budget in mind?

    Italian:
    Il Vicolo in the bridge mills near Domnicks st is a wine bar/Italian that has a nice menu and lots of non traditional Italian dishes, i.e. no spag bol or Lasagne here. It's got a good atmosphere but you'll def be able to have a convo. Pasta dishes would be €16-€19 with mains such as duck or steak around €25. Can be busy so best to book earlier

    Il Folletto on Quays st is a more traditional Italian where you can get a pizza, spag bol etc. It would not be as expensive as Il Vicolo but is still very nice. It's location also means that you would be right in the heart of all the main pubs if you wanted to go post dinner drink, though to be honest no where is really too far away from a pub in the city :)

    If you want to be away from town Da Robertas in Salthill would be the best bet. The would be similar to Il Folletto in terms of price and menu. Haven't been here in a while so can't attest to what the food is like these days

    If you want something other than an Italian I highly recommend Kai on Sea rd for my money it's one of the best restaurants in Galway

    Rouge. Perfect for spending long time and chatting. It's a wine bar and restaurant. Has only 3 mains I think and good prices. It's a French place, have couches where you can have wine while waiting for your table. Nice steak, lovely creme bruelle

    What do you mean by "open-minded"?

    Someone who's not strictly orthodox.. I guess not stuck in old ways and also not just gonna be 5 mins in the door, write out a script, thanks for the 60e and see ya later.. I like alternative routes too but by all means there's a time and place for both approaches :)

    You know what they call "alternative medicine" that works, right?

    Tbh I've never seen a doctor that handed me a script after only 5 mimutes without an examination.

    As for an answer, Dr Fergal Colohan out in Terryland beside Dunnes is good. The medical centre at Dockgate seem to also be good as well.

    Hi! I'm looking for a place to store a few suitcases and bags. The size of a closet should do really, about 2 or 3 square meters max as I'm looking for somewhere quite cheap and have absolutely no need for 15m2.
    Thanks.
