Blackrock Bar at Salthill Hotel is a stylish, welcoming gastro-pub with sweeping views across Galway Bay — named after Salthill’s iconic Blackrock diving tower.
Opening Hours
Open seven days a week for lunch, dinner and evening drinks. Live music every Friday and Saturday night.
Contemporary Irish Menu
Starters include Galway Bay seafood chowder, crispy chicken wings and bruschetta. Mains range from slow-cooked Irish beef stew and beer-battered Atlantic cod to grilled chicken and our signature Blackrock burger with Cashel Blue and caramelised onion. Vegetarian and plant-based dishes always available. Desserts feature warm chocolate brownie, sticky toffee pudding and Irish artisan ice creams.
Sunday Brunch
One of Salthill’s favourite brunch spots — eggs Benedict, pancakes, smashed avocado on sourdough and full Irish breakfast, paired with fresh juice, artisan coffee or a Prosecco mimosa.
Drinks
Draught beers, signature cocktails, an extensive wine list, Irish craft gins and a curated Irish whiskey selection.
