Went here for a quick bite for lunch, I had the standard smashburger as takeout. Despite my not-so-high expectations.l, I was pleasantly surprised and I really enjoy the burger. Within a quite soft bun, the meat was juicy and the onions very tasty. It was not very big but it perfectly satisfied my appetite, I would recommend taking also a side dish if you are a but hungrier tho. The burger took a while to come, but it is not an fast food chain so I cannot complain about this. Bonus point for the big amount of sauces I got in my box!

So many people told me to try different burger spots in Galway but my husband and I stumbled on this place and we went back three times lol, it is SO GOOD. The burgers are perfect, absolutely delicious. The staff here is also really kind and we enjoyed our time here, came back for thirds.

Popped in last night for a quick burger and fries, a wonderful alternative amongst the pubs and tourists eateries around. Burgers were, just good, not great. My loaded fries were the star! Weird and glitchy self ordering menu, credit card charge kept failing, due connectivity issues.
