Busker Brownes is a popular spot in Galway, known for its lively atmosphere and great customer service, with bartender Jonathan receiving many praises. Despite some minor issues like slow service, the establishment offers tasty food and good cocktails. Though the interior may not look like a typical Irish pub, the modern vibe is enjoyable. While the washrooms could use some work, overall, Busker Brownes provides a comfortable and fun experience for adults. With delicious food, pleasant drinks, and live music, it's definitely a place worth checking out in Galway.

We came to visit Galway for a day, and we were recommended to eat at the Busker Brownes. The place is pretty big and has a great atmosphere. The food was also very good; we ordered battered cod and stews, all of which were very nice. I also ordered a small cup of vegetable soup, and I have to say it was one of the best I have ever tried. It was so simple yet so cozy. More so, the waitresses were both efficient and kind, especially Alba, and besides doing an excellent job, she recommended some places to visit in Galway. I highly recommend the Busker Brownes.

Very good option for lunch at Galway! All plates were super tasty and menu has many options. The pulled pork BBQ sandwich was supreme. Logical prices and excellent service.

We had our staff Christmas party in The Hall Buskars last Friday. The ambience was nice and good. They did serve drinks and the seating was gorgeous. Our party started at 7 however our food only came in at 10:30 so we were all starving till then. Other than the delay in the food, it was a great experience!
