🔌 Plugs
No. Sockets are the same as in the UK (type G), so your UK plugs fit. The voltage (230V) is close to the UK's 230V, so UK appliances work with just a plug adapter.
🕒 Time
Galway is on the same time as the UK all year.
💶 Money
Galway uses the Euro (EUR). Like the UK: 10–15% for table service if no service charge is added. Not expected in pubs.
