Nestled in the heart of Galway city’s main shopping thoroughfare, stands the historic building that
An architectural treasure, its current physical footprint dates back to the fortified Galway of 1650. While undergoing some renovations in the offices upstairs, original fireplaces were unearthed and traces of the tower (as significant historically as Lynch’s castle) and raw walls from the late Medieval period were also discovered.

There is a long-standing tradition of excellent whiskey-brewing in Ireland and Irish Whiskey, whose name derives from the Gaelic Uisce Beatha (‘Water of Life’), has been synonymous with Garavan’s Public House since its inception 80 years ago.

Sourced from all over the world, these can be viewed in the beautifully handmade whiskey cabinets located throughout the bar.
Garavan’s hugely popular Whiskey Platters offer patrons a unique and enjoyable experience: selecting three to taste from a huge range of whiskeys, complete with comprehensive tasting notes, while sitting among the ghosts of the past in this most historical of buildings, must make this one of the most original places in the world to be sampling such delights.
