The best restaurants in Donegal

09/09/2025: Great service, nice wee clean cafe, super food and refill coffee at good prices what's not to like . Will deffo be back.

31/08/2025: Cute little coffee shop just a short distance off the Wild Atlantic Way. Worth making a detour. Close to the beach too

07/09/2025: Absolutely lovely meal. Lived up to the extraordinarily positive reviews.

30/08/2025: Fantastic food and very good value for money! Really a hidden gem! Location not very appealing at the back of a shopping mall, and decor a bit dated, but worth it if it keeps the prices down! Would definitely go back & recommend to others!

12/09/2025: What an amazing place to eat! Everything was perfect, from the food (especially the chowder, which was absolutely delicious) to the warm and friendly service. The atmosphere is cosy and charming, making it the perfect spot to relax and enjoy a great meal. Highly recommend!

08/09/2025: Disappointed that they got 3 of our 5 orders wrong. We accepted the wrong orders to not waste time but we had to pay for the more expensive meal than what we actually ordered.

20/08/2025: Absolutely amazing! Can't say much more than that!

19/08/2025: The best pint in Ireland! Incredible chowder. Crab sandwiches to dream about. And best of all the welcome is always so warm to our whole family, including the kids and our little dogs. There have been some changes over the 40 years I’ve been coming here but the feel that Teresa nurtured has never changed - it has always been a special place and I feel it always will be.

25/08/2025: It's just lovely ..good atmosphere. The steak sandwich was yummy .. Ham and cheese toasties made with real ham slices ..will be back.

23/08/2025: Ode to the humble Naanwich "I didn’t think much when I read Naanwich on the menu..." But when it arrived—hot, folded, radiating a quiet confidence—I knew something was different. One bite and my taste buds stood to attention like they'd heard God's angels singing. Juicy chicken hugged by warm naan, crisp salad cooling the fire, yoghurt drizzled on like divine intervention. Somewhere behind me, I swear I heard someone whisper its name. The room fell silent. A glass trembled. A dog barked in the distance. Even the waiter nodded slowly, knowingly. Eat it, and you'll understand. Eat it, and you'll be a man, my son.

11/09/2025: Staff were super and quality of food excellent . Well worth the visit and not unreasonably priced. Cheesecake was a little disappointing but still tasty, never had to scrape it from inside a jar before 🤷🏻‍♂️ I’m just used to a nice slice with a crispy base.

06/09/2025: My husband & I were desperately looking for somewhere to eat in Buncrana that allowed dogs in. We had absolutely no luck whatsoever, so my husband decided to go into Ubiquitous & ask the owner if there was any way they would accommodate the 3 of us. We were delighted that he agreed and we had a first class meal. I had a duck dish which was absolutely gorgeous, as were all the trimmings. My husband's sea bream was equally delicious and both meals were beautifully presented. The service was very good and staff were very friendly and efficient. We would highly recommend this restaurant if you want an excellent meal at a reasonable price. We will definitely return should we be in Buncrana again.

22/08/2025: Absolutely phenomenal dining experience. Highly recommended.

21/08/2025: Great food and some good "black stuff"...

13/09/2025: A completely offbeat restaurant, but so much like home... perfect meal, unforgettable atmosphere

13/09/2025: We were recommended dinner at Nancy's. And they were right!!!! We had a delicious dinner. Oysters and chowder as a starter and smoked mackerel as a main. Apple pie to finish; all washed down with an excellent Guinness. Even though the place was packed (due to a wedding taking place there), the owner went out of his way to find us a table without even having to wait. The proverbial Irish kindness is wonderful!!!! Finally, I'd like to add that the quality/price ratio is truly excellent. If you're in Donegal, don't miss Nancy's!!!

03/09/2025: A little gem, the on site bakery is excellent and complimented by friendly staff who make you feel welcome no matter if it’s tea and a scone or a full meal. We always pay a visit when in Rathmullan.

19/08/2025: We had a family brunch here in early August. Good weather had brought crowds to Rathmullan and everywhere was busy, including Belle’s. We deliberated whether we could wait for a table with an active toddler in tow. We are so glad we did! Food, service and cleanliness were excellent. French toast, waffles, fry and the specials were all outstanding and tremendous value. The selection of baked goods on show at the takeaway counter was impressive, and popular! They’d sold out of scones by the time we ordered so we’ll have to return for an earlier breakfast to sample those. The sourdough which we had in the cafe and the one we took home, were exceptional. The staff, despite being very busy, couldn’t have been more helpful, bringing special plates for the 2 kids with their favourite cartoon characters on them. And, despite the pressures of tending to many customers, service was very prompt and efficient. Definitely worth a visit!

14/09/2025: Lovely bar great décor. Food was outstanding only matched by the service highly recommend a visit if in Moville

10/09/2025: Excellent food, great value, great music and superb craic, I will be back!

20/08/2025: Fabulous Hotel and surrounding area.

19/08/2025: Went for the Sunday cavery great food and table service

07/09/2025: Love this place every time we come to Dunfanaghy. The photographs do not do the food justice as the base and topping are just the best. Julie and the staff are so helpful and friendly, even the dog is welcome. Will definitely be back.

07/09/2025: Good: the base - crispy and light. The sauce was lovely. Not Good: garlic bread with butter dip. Very basic but yet charge €7. Shoukd be €4. The pizzas in general lacked toppings and crucially, for me, cheese. Very disappointing.

18/08/2025: Amazing. I got the chicken karahi which was phenomenal and the tandoori roti which was just succulent. The staff were lovely and hospitable too. They give you a free appetizer before your meal. The food is also halal. 10/10 would come again.

16/08/2025: The korma was amazing 🙌. Food came fast 🏃‍♂️. Waiters were super kind. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

13/09/2025: Very busy, but the service is fantastic and more friendly. The coffee and food (we had lunch) were delicious, I recommend it!

11/09/2025: They have vegetarian options. They look for you to get a place. This way you definitively get a place, but it’s a little bit loud

15/08/2025: A bit remote but this place is great, got a fantastic deal on Groupon & it didn't disappoint, the staff are down to earth but on the ball, definitely recommend.

10/08/2025: This place is what you would expect from a "lodge and spa". Clean and well appointed furnishings. The rooms were very comfortable and the restaurant was good with very friendly staff.
