We sat in the sun eating open crab sandwiches and watching a seal fishing in the inlet off Galway Bay. The perfect end to a day spent walking the Cliffs of Mohr and the moonscape of Burren.
Just up the road from trendy gastropub The Eagle and around the corner from the cosmopolitan tastes of Moro, but a timewarp away, the family-run Golden Fish Restaurant has tiny faux wooden formica tables and benches that give you about as much elbow room as an in-flight meal. Still the best mushy peas I've had this side of the Watford Gap, though, great hunks of lightly golden cod or haddock, and perfectly formed chips.
