The best restaurants in Doneraile

24/02/2025: We’ve been to the townhouse a couple of times and decided to head out last Saturday for lunch, we arrived and waited no longer than 5 minutes to be seated, a lovely friendly waitress showed up to table at the back exit next to the back door , we asked if we could close the door and this was no problem as the table was in a draft. Shortly after a man who I’m assuming was either the manager or the owner came along and opened the door and used a watering can to keep it open, we then proceeded to close it as it was freezing, within seconds he ran out saying we had to leave it open as people would be going in and out. We explained we told we could close the door and that was the reason we took the table. He was adamant the door had to stay open , we asked of we could move table and he dismissed us saying I’m sure there’s a table inside and walked off, the whole situation was a simple thing , he wanted the door left open , absolutely no problem, but it was the manner in which we were spoken to and fobbed off that was plainly just rude . We explained to a different waitress we took the table because we were told we could keep the door closed and he’s now telling us we can’t , the poor girl was so embarrassed. There were clearly no tables inside and there was a queue out the door and he fobbed us off saying yer out of luck ladies ye will just have to wait . Which I can assure you wouldn’t have been an issue if we were spoken to respectfully . Needless to say we didn’t stay as he was now talking loudly from behind the desk and the waitress and ourselves were embarrassed at this stage. We won’t be returning or recommending the townhouse unfortunately.
