When the sun’s splitting the stones and your thirst demands to be quenched, a 99 from The Creamery on the Salthill Prom is the place to be.

Don’t let the fact that their cones are the tastiest in Connacht cloud your vision – there’s a whole lot more on offer in this joint. Barista coffee, freshly baked scones and pastries and delicious sandwiches – their bespoke food menu makes great use of quality Irish produce and suppliers. Their sensational BBQ ‘Low & Slow’ pulled pork or tender hot beef and caramelised onions on a multi seed roll are some mouthwatering examples of the grub on offer and their premium Irish-made ice creams, milk shakes and fruit smoothies certainly deserve honourable mention too – they’re sure to perk you up on a dreary day.
