Downings Bay Hotel in Cnoc na muirleog

30/03/2024: Tiny little spot attached to The Harbour Bar. Drove out from Letterkenny for lunch & there was already a small queue before they opened. There’s only five tables inside, but food can be eaten outside, and I also believe it can be brought into the bar. We ordered three oysters, one fish taco, and the mussels. Oysters we’re some of the best I’ve ever had, served with a chili granita. So creamy and no grittiness. My dad was tempted by the prawn bao, but opted for the fish taco, & said it was a winner. Perfectly cooked battered fish, slaw, spicy mayo & pico de gallo. Mussels came in a tomatoey sauce, along with a portion of perfect chips. Unfortunately I was only allowed a small sample before dad reminded me that it was his lunch, not mine. Only wine is served in Fisk, but soft drinks, beer etc can be bought in the bar and brought in. One americano to finish, and our bill came to €28.00. Staff were all absolutely lovely and despite how busy it was, service was prompt and efficient. An absolutely fab spot, and one I hope to go back to soon.

11/01/2024: The best seafood in all of Ireland, cannot recommend this place enough and it is an absolute must if visiting this part of the country.
