Best Coffee Shops and Cafes in Cong

"Sort of an alternative brunch, Ard Bia runs the gauntlet from quinoa with smoked salmon, pomegranate and pistachio to French toast stuffed with meltybrie and pear. It’s not our fault if you immediately drop everything to go there now."

"Tucked away behind Spanish Arch, this quirky spot serves many key brunch dishes with a twist. Ard Bia at Nimmos’ buttermilk pancakes come with mascarpone, which is certainly not your typical topping."

"While the specials change from day to day, you can expect the likes of vegan ciabattas, flavoursome organic soups and freshly squeezed juices, all made with locally sourced ingredients. Temple Café is known for its healthy but delicious vegan treats. If you have a sweet tooth, then pop in and grab yourself a coffee and one of their super tasty vegan pastries."

"As well as a choice of cooked breakfasts there’s a tempting array of pastries, muffins and cakes if you prefer to start your day with something sweet. We adore the Caramel on Mars slice – for a sweet breakfast, or any time of the day. On a visit for breakfast I enjoyed the super protein porridge which was a nourishing way to start the day."

"Since 2016, Temple Café has been providing vegans and vegetarians with some of the best grub in town. A plant-based paradise right in the heart of Galway’s Latin Quarter, they’ve got some seriously tasty options. For brekkie, their vegan fry is fantastic and their pink buckwheat pancakes are always a treat."

"Take a trip back in time as you enter through the doors of the Corrib House Tea Rooms, a beautifully restored Georgian Townhouse overlooking the Salmon Weir. Every Saturday from 9.30am-4pm and Sundays from 10.30am-3pm, their weekend brunch menu comes into full effect and it contains some serious highlights. Granola and waffles, scrambled eggs and smashed avocados appear alongside traditional fries and there are even brunch specials to be found on their in-house boards."

"The Corrib Tea Rooms cafe will re-open for outdoor dining in their beautiful front and rear courtyards, Wednesday to Sunday 9.30am-4pm with their famous brunch menu now served all day each day, (and operated on a walk in, first come basis). They have also just announced an evening time wine and grazing boards menu for the summer weekends, Friday and Saturday evenings from 4pm-9pm with reservations required through their website.

"Like many of the best restaurants in Galway, Brasserie on the Corner has made it their mission to source the finest local ingredients. And with the West of Ireland’s vast resources of superior produce to choose from, they’ve got everything they need to hit you with some premium ‘farm to fork’ cuisine. The plush, low-lit interior is cosy and the menu is reassuringly small (they even list all of their local suppliers), with a clear focus on doing a few things extremely well, such as their top-priced Duo of Irish Lamb."

"Brasserie on the Corner is known for their seafood but they also do really tasty sandwiches for under a tenner if you’re looking for a cheap lunch. In fact, they have lots of yummy dishes for under €10, check out their lunch menu, it has a really interesting selection of starters, open sandwiches and cheese boards here if you want something that feels upmarket but is inexpensive. Book yourself a table at Brasserie on the Corner here."
