Was Liz Burke at Beachbreak a mag?
I always enjoy having a coffee or tea here after a swim. Since I only swim on very warm days, the outdoor setting and occasional breeze never bother me. They often play great music, too. View all feedback.

What Skorpio Skorpio dislikes about Beachbreak:
After waiting in line for 20 minutes, we finally got our coffee. The waitress seemed indifferent about the wait and took a long time to make the drink. Her irritation with the customers waiting was clear, and she made no effort to speed up. The whole experience was very frustrating, making me wonder why I chose this place. I wouldn’t recommend this restaurant to anyone. The service was extremely disappointing. View all feedback.

I had a fantastic experience at this delightful café situated right on the Prom in Galway. The service was outstanding, and the iced coffees were absolutely delicious!
