IT ALL HAPPENS here
We distil in the heart of Galway city and serve a range of award-winning gins, whiskies, vodkas, rums and elegant cocktails. We can show you how we go about making our drinks and you can make your own at our flavour academy or just join us for a drink.

“If you have hopes to be called to the bar, then make sure that it’s the Galway City Distillery. You want to be a member of this bar because Jim and his crew, who include the magical Galway mixologist Claire Davey, are raising the bar when it comes to confecting exotically Irish drinks.”

“The menu diversifies with each lunar cycle, which means that the cocktail offering is ever-evolving, encompassing only the freshest of flavours. Crafting as many elements as possible in house, each of these inventive concoctions make good use of what’s grown in the area, speaking to their ethos of locality and sustainability.”

“Super friendly staff and great cocktails. The menu changes seasonally. The building is really cool and the seating is comfy. They are going to have distilling experiences in the future where you can create your own fun. A must stop in Galway!”
