Chef Patron of Kombu, Jp McMahon, said, "It's hard to believe that Kombu has been open for a year already. We have been overwhelmed by the support from our customers and are incredibly grateful to everyone who has dined with us over the past twelve months. We look forward to welcoming both familiar faces and new ones to Kombu for a great afternoon of brunch and music with my friend Jenny Greene."

Over the past year, Kombu has established itself as a standout addition to Galway's dining scene. Since opening on Druid Lane, the restaurant has built a loyal following for its Japanese-inspired menu and vibrant atmosphere. Kombu was recognised at the Irish Restaurant Awards 2026, where it was named Best World Cuisine in Connacht, and was also listed in Hot Press's Best Restaurants in Ireland 2026.
