Good food at reasonable prices.
We go here every month or two for a meal.
We've always had great food and service here.
On our last visit we had a problem with a drink that just didn't taste right. But they sorted it out straight away.
We can't wait to see the pork medallions back on the menu.

AtmosphereTasty food
While passing through, we stopped in Mallow for a Sunday Roast, it was delicious. I ordered the Roast Lamb. There were great portion sizes and the staff met our every need. Although the broccoli and cauliflower were undercooked I would definetly visit again!
I’d recommend booking a table in advance on a Sunday Because it is very busy.
The atmosphere here is delightful and the staff are all working hard.
Well done to all in the Gallery Bar and Restaurant!
Came in for Friday Night dinner service. I was greatly impressed by the standards, presentation and quality of the food.
We arrived early for our reservation but the staff were very accommodating.
A range of beers/stouts on tap, including Guinness (€4.90).
I reccomend the Gallery as the 1st stop for a nice homely meal, suits groups and solo diners.
