About M. Fitzgerald’s

We’re not just a pub – we’re a celebration. Of Irish spirit, global stories, and the vibrant energy of what it means to be Irish today.

M. Fitzgerald’s was built on Galway roots. Inspired by the legacy of our namesake – Mick Fitzgerald, we’ve taken the soul of an Irish pub and given it a fresh twist. Less shamrocks and shillelaghs, more substance and style. Mostly Irish, entirely welcoming.

Here, you’ll find comfort food with edge, cocktails with character, and a space that feels like your favourite local – even if you’re only just discovering it. We’re the kind of place where old friends catch up, new stories start, and the music always sounds better with a pint in hand.
