The Galway Arms

Live Irish music sessions five nights a week!!! (Sunday night sessions are the biggest and best) and bar goers will often dance a step or two and it can really lively. Cozy bar with a big food menu, hearty Irish dishes and friendly staff. The regular music and dancing make anyone who is in the room feel like such a community. It’s a rare gem where people come together for the joy of sharing a tune and step and everyone is welcome to be part of it.

A proper little slice of Ireland in Lincoln Park. The Guinness on tap was smooth and perfect, the live Irish music had the whole place buzzing, and the service was warm and welcoming from start to finish. The atmosphere alone makes you want to stay for just one more. The chicken pot pie was a bit watery this time (perhaps just an off night for the kitchen) but everything else more than made up for it. Overall a lovely experience, and I’ll happily be back for some trad tunes!

Stopped by here on a Saturday night and can’t wait to come back next time I’m in the area, especially for when they have live music! The drinks and food were amazing, staff were great, as well as the atmosphere.

9 dollars for a pint of Guiness, very good Sheppards pie as well. Irish bartenders and great Guiness combos if that’s your interest.

What a lovely place all around! The atmosphere is cozy. The live music is energizing. The food all looks delicious and is reasonable priced. The servers are pleasant. There are rooms with TVs to watch football, if thats your goal. My partner and I are very happy to have come here and plan on making this “our” neighborhood place.
