For over 30 years Goyas on Kirwans Lane in Galways Latin Quarter has been a firm favourite in the west. A gem nestled away from the busy Quay Street, Goyas bakery, retail and at home offering is open from Wednesday to Saturday each week. 

We bake from every Tuesday, using locally sourced ingredients where possible. Everything is done by hand by our dedicated team. Our delicious savouries & sweets can either be enjoyed at our outdoor tables & seating, or prepared for you to collect and take away.

Catering services are offered for self-hosted events & parties. Favoured dishes include chicken casserole,  beef stroganoff, fish pie, dressed baked salmon, quiches or lasagne, including vegetarian/vegan options. Feel free to email us with what you have in mind and we will get back to you with ideas and a quote.

We were always a sit-in café for mid-morning elevenses and for lunch, but have since redefined it as a retail space that introduced Goyas at Home. Home made savoury Quiches, soups and traditional home cooked dinners are available along with home baked scones, breads, tarts and signature bakes such as the luxurious caramel squares. However you can still dine with us Al Fresco in our courtyard and inside at our High counter looking out onto Kirwans Lane.

Meet Emer Murray, Owner of Goyas

Goyas is officially 31 years in operation, however, if you include my time baking at home and selling from the boot of my car at the Saturday Market, learning the ins and outs of a shop from delivering to local businesses I am working at my heart’s delight for almost 40 years.The ethos has always been the same..bake a good cake, cook good food, respect your staff and everything else will follow…
I hope you enjoy your visit to Goyas if this is your 1st time, you are very welcome if you are a regular and if you are browsing our Website I hope you get a sense of what we are about…good cake, good food……..
