Conger Bread

Conger bread is an Irish bread originating from Galway. This visually attractive bread has been invented by Jimmy Griffin, the owner of Griffin’s Bakery, who stretches the bread across the length of the counter every day. This huge loaf of sourdough can be found in the bakery every morning, and it’s shaped like a giant conger eel that almost killed Jimmy Griffin.


If you want to grab a piece, make sure to arrive early because slices are sold to customers daily, and the rest is used for the bakery’s sandwiches.
