One of Galway's oldest pubs, on the corner of Cross Street since 1894, with local lunches and the city's traditional musicians.

What is it?
A pub of dark wood and small corners on the corner of Cross Street, right in the Latin Quarter, open since 1894. The building was the home of Richard Martin, a Galway MP and a pioneer in the defence of animals. It is a pub of the old sort, frequented by locals, with a painted façade that everyone photographs.
What is there to eat?
Only at lunchtime, from 12:00 to 16:00: a short menu of local produce and something to nibble on. In the evening it is a pub for drinking and chatting; many of Galway's traditional musicians have played here, although the website does not publish a calendar of sessions.

Qué pedir: the lunch of the day, from 12:00 to 16:00, and a pint in the afternoon.

A tener en cuenta: Food at lunchtime only, from 12:00 to 16:00
