We felt completely at ease at The Railway Tavern! The service staff is incredibly friendly, and the food was so delicious that we ate there several times – sadly, you hardly ever find this level of service in Germany anymore. We did have a little running gag, though: the chef took the "char-grilled" part a bit too literally one evening… 🔥 But otherwise, we highly recommend it!

This is a hidden gem. Tucked away on the Innishowen peninsula, It is an excellent restaurant which boasts great food and memorabilia showing Donegal railways in their heyday. The steaks are cooked to perfection on what resembles a train firebox and gauges. I would highly recommend a visit, bring your appetite!

It was our first time back at The Railway Tavern in Fahan in a couple of years, and it was great. . My wife and I stopped in for a quick meal and were really impressed. I had the steak, which was excellent, while my wife chose the chicken supreme, which she thoroughly enjoyed. We skipped starters and desserts this time, keeping it simple, but everything we had was top quality. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was outstanding. Overall, a fantastic experience and definitely worth the visit.

We were given vouchers for here and it was our first visit.
The food was incredible, quality ingredients and options.
The service was fine, I didn't get a drink I ordered but that's not the end of the world. Highly recommended.
