Friendly staff
This wine bar has wonderful wines by glass and bottle. Wide variety of choices are available including a decent alcohol free option.
We did the cheese board with nuts and fruits; absolutely fantastic! Really interesting array of cheeses! Quality was excellent.
Surroundings are so pleasant!
I’m excited to recommend this cafe and wine bar!
What a lovely little place, great ambiance, fabulous food and such a warm and friendly welcome from our host Barry.
We ordered the classic Trieste sharing board for 2 with a side of veggie sticks and hummus followed by the sweet Trieste board. The meats and cheeses were all wonderful and were perfectly complemented by the selection of little extras.
If we return to Galway, we’ll definitely be back, thank you 😊
An exceptional and truly memorable experience. We were presented with a remarkable selection of cheeses, each more exquisite than the last, perfectly complemented by an equally outstanding wine pairing.
The service was unlike anything I have encountered before—attentive, refined, and genuinely distinctive, creating an atmosphere that felt both elevated and warmly inviting.
For those seeking a unique and intimate setting with an extraordinary ambiance, this is undoubtedly the place to visit.
A particularly noteworthy recommendation is the Argentinian Malbec paired with the Italian truffle cheese—an indulgent combination that beautifully captures the essence of the experience.
Thank you for such a delightful and unforgettable time.
