Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

All the staff were absolutely amazing. Couldn’t do enough for us when I arranged a surprise party for my daughter. Live music. Drink was great. I can’t praise everyone enough. Always enjoyed going to Taylor’s but last night was such a memorable experience. Can’t wait to go back

This was our first stop in Galway and we really liked the place with great staff and a nice layout with a beer garden at the back. There was a private function going on in the beer garden so we found a table inside for a few drinks before we moved on for some food. They had a musician just started as we were leaving and we were tempted to stay for a couple more drinks but we had a early start so we left.

Lovely outdoor area which was lively, really nice unusual cocktails and good live music. The inside seemed to have a more relaxed atmosphere

Went there with high expectations and immediately my hopes were put down when my younger brother couldn’t get in, the drinks were fantastic but as the night went on I was harrassed by this 40 year old who kept taking pictures and asking “to go for a swim”, to top it all of I was cut off from the beer and bouncers were helpful telling me where the door was, great place if you want sound bouncers and meeting the women

Had a few pints at the bar while watching the matches. Then ventured out the back to find some live music. A great local act was playing, Ryan Bradley. He kept everyone in high spirits
Then we ordered 3 rounds of Zombies from the cocktail bar. I can't remember anything after that :-P

Hello. I came here with my ex and did NOT have a nice time. It’s over. My pint fell over too. Adrift on the stormy sea of life. Not much to be done. Toilets clean
