I couldn’t be happier to have made our way to Morans. This was one of our favorite dining experiences while on Ireland. The seafood was so so unbelievably fresh and delicious. We ordered everything from the oysters, fish and chips, and the lobster! Each just as tasty as the next! The bread crumb cooked oysters as well as the seafood chowder are a must!

Off the beaten path a bit, but an absolute smash of a restaurant. From their perfect brown bread to fish-filled chowder to the oysters to the best Irish coffee I've ever had, this meal was an experience I'll never forget. This is worth the trip from Galway or anywhere else, for that matter. I'll be thinking about Moran's for a long time! Parking is a bit informal but you can figure it out. Seating is ample inside, plus they have a large outdoor seating area that overlooks the water (not suitab

This was probably our favorite place to eat at on our entire trip. It's a small business. the menus are beautiful and simple. It was incredibly clean. Very well organized. The staff were all beautiful. The oysters were amazing. We didn't love the potato cakes so I wouldn't get that again. The sweetest relaxed little place. Loved it! Highly recommend.
