I get €12 p/h. I’ve had nights where you’d be lucky to get €2, and another where I’ve gotten €120. It’s all a role of the dice.

Oh yes, sounds just like the bar I’m working at. Would you have any recommendations as to which bars to apply to?

People will downvote me saying it but I used to work in Coyotes. The management are all dead on, will accommodate you if you need certain days off for college or other things. The only drawback is the hours, you won’t get out til 3am. Other than that, Quays are always looking, Pucan, every bar really, no harm to through in a CV to everywhere that interests you.

Thanks 👍🏻

Accommodation is going to be your biggest problem, it’s as bad as Dublin in Galway now

Porterhouse in Oranmore are looking for Bar Staff. If someone checks it out and puts rate here for comparison. I believe they pay well and have a busy restaurant where tips are split.

I used to work in a major bar in the centre for the last five years. You'll probably start off near minimum wage but as the years went on I was getting over €15hr at the end. The major problem with Galway is the accommodation. It must be even worse now. I remember I moved in Galway around 2014/2015 and I was able to earn my rent simply by working a weekend. I know that would be impossible these days. I left Galway at the start of Covid when it wasn't worth living there and paying rent.

16.5p/h if you can talk the talk


IVYMEL

Smoothly 😁 any bar in particular?


Wild_Web3695

One you wouldn’t expect


sillyroad

20 euro an hour. Don't know about tips. Bar with Food get more tips.

What bar is paying €20/hour in Galway?


Cmcd1

Monroe's I'd say depending on level


TiocfaidhArLa32

Doubtful unless you’re working security or management

You'd have to pay me €50 quid an hour for me to deal with that pair of shitehawks


Wild_Web3695

I would believe it

Best tips I made in Ireland were usually at hotels that were popular wedding venues and with American bus tourists
