We were away from home on Christmas Day and didn’t expect to find a nice, sit down restaurant open. Let alone, find a traditional Irish place open for their first Christmas dinner! Gallagher’s did not disappoint at all! We had an absolutely wonderful experience! Food was fantastic (a set menu, but options for starters and main entree), service superb, and the atmosphere festive. Thank you for opening your door to us on Christmas Day - a grand time!

The Christmas Experience in Gallagher's Boxty House was amazing. I was greeted by amazing staff and than seated to my table. I was given a glass of Processco and proceeded to order dinner. There was one staff who was outgoing and made people feel happy. Wonderful drinks and food and the attention to detail on the food items was amazing. Happy Christmas to Boxty House and Happy New Year. Will be back next year.
