Nancy’s Barn
Ballyliffin
14/06/2025: We hadn't booked and thought we would chance it while passing and the staff where more than helpful. Got us in no bother and we where served our food in good time. The chef came out from the kitchen with little sample soups that tasted so good and chatted with us. Starters were beautiful and the mains were perfect, portions where just right. Deserts where served so well also presentation was 10/10. Staff and service outstanding.
11/06/2025: The food was delicious, the portion sizes were very generous, and the story of how the barn came to be under the current ownership was very cute

Ubiquitous
Buncrana
15/05/2025: Happy with everything. Lovely food/vine. Staff very friendly.
13/05/2025: The girls and I visited The Ubiquitous Restaurant Buncrana on the busy May bank holiday, and it was an absolutely fab experience from start to finish. Despite being quite busy, the atmosphere was great, had an amazing buzz, and the staff couldn’t have been better, they were very attentive, friendly, and super welcoming.
The food was to die for, very well done, really good quality, generous portions, plus such good value for money. The cocktails were easily the best I’ve had in town.
Really excited to go back for literally any occasion I can—highly recommended!

Lemon Tree
Letterkenny
17/06/2025: The best food I have ever eaten in a restaurant. Without a doubt.
Exceptional service too.
Nothing else needs to be said.
Go raith mìle maith agaibh.
13/06/2025: 5 this is a fabulous restaurant, I have been to many Michelin restaurants around the world, but do you know this is up there are better.
The food is 5 star and so are the staff, Linda , Dillon and Niamh were the three who served us and they are top class.
I asked their permission to use their names on Tripadvisor.
I was here two weeks ago and although it takes if 50 minutes to drive to it , my wife and I just feel it is the best restaurant we have eaten in for years.
We will be back, and cannot rate in higher , SIMPLY THE BEST.

Rosato's
Moville
14/06/2025: Food was good but not exceptional. I thought the size of the fish meals was ridiculously large and could have been reduced and made less expensive. go
od service.
31/05/2025: Great food. Most of the group had pizza. The beef stew and potatoes (other than fish and chips only one of two or three menu items which could be considered Irish) was very good. Our friends treated so not sure of pricing. Interior decor is eclectic but cramped. No view of beautiful Foyle as it is situated off and perpendicular to the beach.

Boathouse Restaurant
Killybegs
12/06/2025: Great meal out (pre-booked!) for a family birthday. The staff were very attentive and all very polite. There were clean plates all round (we ordered the trout, steak, chicken and monk fish, plus starters and dessert). It was a nice touch for the staff to sing happy birthday to one of our family members, with a lit candle in their dessert.
Recommend and would happily return if we visit Killybegs again.
04/06/2025: Really excellent seafood restaurant. 5 friends went for a birthday lunch and we were all impressed by the cooking, presentation and staff. Front of house was as good as anywhere I have been. Highly recommended.

Seaview Tavern
13/06/2025: Spent three nights for a wedding and it was just perfect. Nice mix of patrons and locals at the bar downstairs which has a variety of beers on tap as well as anything else you might want. Restaurant is serving up fire. Huge portions well priced for the area. Rooms are clean and well appointed and the ocean views across the street are breathtaking. All the local attractions associated with Malin Head are within walking distance. Just go!
08/06/2025: Really a beautiful place with a remarkable view

Blueberry Tea Room
Donegal
14/06/2025: Lovely Ploughman's, and they allow dogs inside, almost unheard of in Ireland. I don't know why such a dog loving country is so anti-dog in their cafes
10/06/2025: A good tuna and cheese club sandwich on the terrace.

Harvey's Point
20/06/2025: Enchanting from the moment we entered the hotel we were greeted with a great warm, beautiful smile from Eilis front of house lady. all the staff were impeccable in their service, manners, demeanor. Their bedroom was very large and extremely comfortable and had to be soundproof. Views are mythical and magical. And to top all of that, the food excellent. If you ever desire to treat yourself, this is the place.
17/06/2025: Excellence services provided by the hotel. Front desk is very helpful despite our rapid request for this and that. (We are Asians and are very new to Ireland... Lots of questions and requests. Lol). Everyone in Harvey's point make us felt so welcomed. Breakfast was awesome too. Hose attended to us very well too. Thumbs up! 👍👍👍 Highly recommended.
