Urban Grind — Restaurant in Galway

Last Sunday, Galway treated us to sunshine and a leisurely stroll through its vibrant center. On our way home, the idea of brunch popped into our minds, and Urban Grind was the winning choice.

The place was buzzing with activity but, fortunately, we were seated quickly and set about ordering our meal. It has quite nice atmosphere there.

To our delight, the coffee from 3fe was exceptional, paired with two beautifully crafted brunch dishes. Each dish had its own unique flair, yet both were perfectly balanced in flavor and made with fresh, high-quality ingredients.

My mom and I visited Urban Grind at 1:45 PM, absolutely starving and looking forward to a nice meal. Unfortunately, our experience was anything but pleasant.

Upon arrival, we were seated by someone who appeared to be the manager. She threw the menus down on the table without even glancing at us or saying a word. Her behavior was incredibly rude and unwelcoming. We were so shocked by the lack of basic courtesy that we decided to leave immediately without ordering anything.

This level of unprofessionalism is unacceptable, and we were deeply disappointed by the experience. Based on this interaction, we won't be returning to Urban Grind, and we wouldn't recommend it to others either. Customer service is key in the restaurant business, and this place...
