Delicious and super friendly

We had to wait about 15 min for our table on a Saturday night. The personnel was super friendly and the food was delicious.

Pizza

The vegan pizza was nice and fresh, and a big portion size. Wish it had more cheese though

Decent Calzones

Freddy's didn't have a ton of options, but they had a vegan pizza/calzone that was pretty decent -- vegan mozzarella, peperonata, arugula, pesto.

It came out with a nice and crispy crust, but despite the pesto being left on the side, it still felt almost a little soupy inside.

It was perfectly fine and nice to have the option but definitely not the best of the best vegan calzones that we have had.

Pros: Crispy calzone crust, Presentation

Cons: Calzone consistency, Variety of menu options

Delicious vegan pizza (but only option)

Updated review 2024: I said 'would return', and I did return here after a 5 year gap. In the interval I have kept a good memory of it and recommended it to other vegans who also enjoyed it. The good news is the pizza is still delicious. The bad news is that it is now the only vegan option on the menu, when previously I had been impressed as a new vegan to actually have options to choose from. I am very disappointed to see regression like this, and so have taken a star off my previous review.

Original review 2019: My first experience of really delicious vegan pizza (after some very bad experiences!) Saw it on happy cow before trying when visiting Galway. Would return!

Updated from previous review on 2019-10-27

Pros: Delicious vegan pizza, Friendly staff

Cons: Only one vegan option (reduced from previous)

Tasty pizza

A lot of pizza places (including Italian-run places) complain they can't get cheese right, so they don't bother with cheese. They should all come to Freddy's for a crash course!

Very tasty, very cheesy pizza. We asked for vegan garlic mayo, and I believe the chef made it up just for us. Great service and cooking from a mostly Italian staff.

Pros: Cheese!

Noice

I got a veggie burger, which was the standard yknow vegetable patty, but it was good. There was vegan mayo on it and it wasn’t disclosed so I thought it was an animal based sauce however they were very accommodating and checked that it was vegan (it was vegan mayo) chips were lovely like real good stuff there. Defo worth a visit if you don’t wanna spook your meat eatin buds

Pros: Vegan options , Makes the meat eaters comfy

Cons: Expensive , Not very explicitly labelled

Great quesadillas

The best quesadillas I’ve ever tasted! There are a few good vegan options on the menu. The staff is really nice and the atmosphere of the place is funny and lovely.

Great chease

The staff was very accommodating for vegan options. There aren’t that many options but the ones available are very good. I shared the vegan quesadilla with my non-veg bf then had a margarita pizza with vegan chease which was definitely one of the best I’ve ever had! Not healthy vegan options but very tasty!

Pros: The chease, The staff attitude, The location

Cons: Not healthy (but sometimes who cares?)

Super quesadilla

As the header says, it was deeelicious. Staff is really nice and warm. Pizzas can be modified with vegan cheese. Central location, cozy atmosphere.

Hot, tasty vegan food!

This is a really good place to visit if dining with a non-vegan. I've visited many times to try the various vegan dishes available (pizza, quesadillas and enchiladas, all with vegan cheese). The food is delicious. It is also great to see vegan options clearly marked on the menu.

However, vegans note:
1) The salad dressing that comes with the side salad served with most dishes isn't vegan.
2) The falafel and chips are cooked in the same oil as the meat.
3) The baby potatoes served with some dinner meals are suitable.

And the venue can feel quite chilly on a cold day - dress warm!

Despite these warnings I really enjoy going to Fat Freddies to dine. Hot, tasty vegan food! Hopefully the other issues will improve with time.

fine for what it is

Have had the quesadillas and the pizza here. Both were okay.
On the pizza they used vegan chedder rather than mozzarella which was kind of odd as it drys to a strange texture after its been melted.

Pros: a few good options

Cons: lunch menu is a reasonable price. however dinner i

Highly recommend!!!!!

Group of 10 - 3 vegans all had the quesadilla and really enjoyed it! Good choice of food, great atmosphere, quirky vintage decor and a great location.

Definitely a must for vegans, vegetarians and meat eaters in the centre of Galway.

We LOVE Fat Freddies!!!! and the HUMMUS

you wouldnt expect a place called fat freddies to have any vegan options, BUT not only do they have them even better they are delicious and sooooo satisfying!!! The place it self is on the main street where everything is happening and all the pubs are therefore super easy to find! Its a cute place with lovely people who are super helpful. We had Quesedillas, A pizza with vegan cheese and before that hummus with pita bread as a starter and OMG this hummus is sooooo delicious we came the day after again only for the hummus, woooow!!! the portions are massive so if you usually dont eat a lot youd be perfectly fine with just a main meal but you HAVE to try the hummus especially if you love garlic :D What we couldnt eat in the evening became our breakfast so nothings thrown away. I ABSOLUTELY RECOMMED FAT FREDDIES, the food is nothing for people who wanna eat healthy but if ud like some SUPER DELICIOUS vegan fast food Fat freddies the place for you! And trust me order the hummus, you wont regret it ;-)

lovely

Our waitress was knowledgeable about the vegan options on the menu, and that both the crust and sauce base are vegan. They have vegan cheese. The atmosphere was fantastic and the food was delicious. We left happy and it didn't break the bank. Thank you for a great first night in Galway!

Pros: vegan cheese, friendly staff
