The Galway table — what to order and where the locals point.
Galway Bay oysters
September's festival celebrates them; the pubs serve them all winter with stout.
Seafood chowder
Every pub claims the best; McDonagh's on Quay Street is the benchmark.
Saturday market
Behind St Nicholas' church — doughnuts, curries and local cheese since the 1500s.
Aniar & the new Irish west
A Michelin-starred room cooking only the west of Ireland.
Pint and a toastie
The correct cheap lunch: a ham-and-cheese toastie in a pub with a fire.
