On a fine sunny summers day, you could surely believe you were in heaven sitting outside Morans sipping wine, eating succulent Galway Bay Oysters and watching the swans glide gracefully by. It is a must for all seafood lovers and those who just want to relax.

Moran's Oyster Cottage, The Weir, Kilcolgan, Co. Galway, dates back almost three hundred years. Today Morans is run by Michael Moran; the seventh generation of the Moran family in the business. It is renowned the world over for it's superb seafood which attracts people from the five continents, and is open all year round.

In the words of Raymond Rodgers of the London "Daily Mail", "I came to Ireland in search of wild fowl, and found Moran's, you have sparked life for me - never again will oysters taken with crumbly brown bread, washed down with foamy cream-headed pints of Guinness, ever taste the same. And your smoked salmon is the nature of Gods"
