This Christmas, bring your team, family or friends together and enjoy an evening that feels a little different from the usual Christmas night out. Our restaurant offers a relaxed setting in Galway city centre, perfect for company dinners, end of year get togethers or simply celebrating the season with the people you want around the table.

It is a chance to sit down, enjoy good food, raise a glass and celebrate the end of the year properly. Christmas dates can fill quickly, so we recommend booking early. For more information, please get in touch.

From 9 to 18 October, venues across Galway will come alive with theatre, dance, music, workshops, visual art and special events for children, families and schools. This year is particularly special, as Baboró marks 30 years of bringing young audiences, families and artists together in Galway.

If you are travelling for the festival, make a few days of it and stay with us at The Western Hotel, Citypoint Apartments or St. Bridget’s Apartments. With all three located in Galway city centre, you will have an ideal base to enjoy the festival, explore the city and return somewhere comfortable at the end of a busy day.

The Galway Ho**er is one of the most distinctive sights along the west coast of Ireland.

For generations, these traditional boats were used for fishing and transporting goods around Galway Bay and along the Atlantic coast. With their dark hulls and unmistakable deep red sails, they have become an enduring part of Galway’s maritime story and a familiar sight on the bay.

This weekend, Galway’s connection with the sea will be celebrated at the Galway Docklands Festival, taking place at Galway Docks and Spanish Arch. Visitors can enjoy traditional boats, maritime activities and sailing experiences across two days in the city.

If you are thinking of spending the weekend in Galway, this is a great opportunity to experience one of the city’s most distinctive traditions and enjoy everything Galway has to offer at this time of year.

Plan your stay with us and make a weekend of it.

📍 Galway Docklands Festival
19 and 20 September 2026
Main public festival: Sunday, 11am to 4pm
