Considering how popular the Chili Shack is with the people of Galway, you probably wouldn’t suspect that it started out as a food service traveling around to different festivals and outdoor events set up by two best friends with the intention of bringing great chili to Ireland. Now it is located on Abbey Street in the heart of the city centre and with the wonderful atmosphere and enthusiastic staff, the place is always full! Even though chili was the main focus the chili shack is well known for their great tasting burgers. They have a wide range of burgers including beef, cheese, chili, chicken and mushroom burgers so the choice is always tough! The burgers are really reasonably priced for the size and quality so if you fancy a really good burger for a great price the Chili Shack is the place to be.
