The Iconic 1 Eyre Square Reimagined
Renovated and opened in 2025, Jack J Foleys is a classic Irish Pub with a 200 year old history right in the heart of Galway. Nestled right on the edge of Eyre Square in the center of town, you can’t miss us. Cozy up to the bar for a Guinness as live music and craic fills the air.
Níl aon tinteán mar do thinteán féin
The Irish saying for “there’s no place like home”. And that’s exactly how we want our customers to feel as they arrive through the doors at Jack J Foleys.
Warm up by the fireplace with a whiskey, tuck into a snug for a quiet pint, or post up at the bar for a good chat with our friendly staff. On Thursday nights and weekends, join us for one of our lively events or host your own with friends, family, or colleagues.
Whatever brings you through our doors, a warm family welcome awaits you. You’ll enter a stranger and leave a friend.
Stay with us in The Draper Rooms
Above the bar, our hotel, The Draper Rooms, has accommodations for guests to stay just minutes from all the greatest Galway has to offer.

Live Music 7 Days a Week
