Lonely Planet review for McDonagh’s

A trip to Galway isn’t complete without stopping at McDonagh’s (something even locals confirm – we heard one exclaim happily, ‘I haven’t been here in years!’). Divided into two parts, with a takeaway counter and a cafe with long communal wooden tables on one side, and a more upmarket restaurant on the other, Galway’s best chippy churns out battered cod, plaice, haddock, whiting and salmon non-stop, all accompanied by homemade tartare sauce.

    The best fish & chips in Galway!

    candacedriskell recommends this,

    I can't get enough of this place! I've been to the more formal restaurant, and it has a great selection, but the casual chipper next door is my favorite. The food is great (especially the fantastic tartare sauce) but the atmosphere is what I come back for. The long picnic benches out front are perfect for soaking up the Galway atmosphere on a suuny day.
