DOG FRIENDLY!
Visiting from the UK and almost everywhere in Ireland closes their doors to dog owners.
We wandered around Galway with all outdoor spaces full but thankfully we found this great cafe.
Delicious, freshly made sandwiches (Veggie friendly too!) and great coffee too! 🙏
I sat down at this café and ordered a smoothie.
At first, the service was friendly… until I discovered there were two frozen balls of spinach still sitting in the drink.
Thinking it was a mistake, I asked for an explanation. The staff member’s response? “Eat it like that.”
I have to admit, I wasn’t familiar with this innovative way of enjoying a smoothie chewing on frozen spinach balls.
If that’s how it’s supposed to be served, I’d genuinely love to know.
The smoothie was disappointing, but the rude attitude made the experience even worse.
Definitely not a place I’ll be coming back to.
After 3 days and stopping at numerous cafes in Galway this is the one I return to for the best Flatwhite and snacks. Worth a visit.
Great stuff Anthony thanks
