Menlo or Menlough (Irish: Mionlach (or) Mionloch, meaning 'small lake')[1] is a village and townland in one of the Gaeltacht areas of County Galway, Ireland.

[5] The village retains some of the characteristics of the clachan form which is more evident in Ordnance Survey of Ireland maps of the 19th century.

[6] In his Letters on the Condition of the People of Ireland, Thomas Campbell Foster writes of a visit to Menlo in mid-October 1845 (shortly before the Great Famine) and describes it as an example of an Irish rundale village: "It contains about two thousand inhabitants, and their chief subsistence is derived from supplying Galway [City] with milk.

The inhabitants keep great numbers of cows, which they feed principally on grains bought in Galway".

In 2001 the community got permission to build a sporting complex adjoining the school called Áras Pobail, Mionloch.
