My boyfriend and I visited this comedy club and it really was tiny! I would recommend coming early enough to make sure you have a comfy seat, as it really is small! The place was full and the atmosphere was great. The free pizza was from supermacs along with sausages and wedges (my boyfriend and I are vegan and were delighted to see wedges!) The host was absolutely hilarious, along with all the acts. Great value!

If you're in Galway and want some craic, check out the comedy at Roisin Dubh. As a regular attendee of comedy, I highly recommend The Roisin Dubh Comedy. Tuesday night's have a great mixed bill of talent, and for an extremely reasonable price. They also have some fantastic weekend solo shows most months as well. With the best of Irish and international comedians taking to the stage. Check it out, you won't be disappointed

Fabulous Irish pub and late bar in the city centre of beautiful Galway. Great craic, live music, DJs and cocktails on offer. Friendly staff and creamy pints of Guinness with a tasty whiskey selection to chase. Highly recommended and looking forward to visiting again soon.

Absolutely love Taaffes, was here for a bite to eat and a few drinks and was very impressed. We were well looked after by our server Danielle, she was so friendly and on the ball the whole time, really made us feel welcome! We understand that working in these conditions are not easy, she really impressed us with her top class service. Food was amazing and of course so were the pints. Cannot fault this place, we will definitely be back again.

Wandered upstairs and happened upon a trad sing-along, followed by a music session with some seriously great performers (including a woman playing the uilleann pipes - fab musician).
