Nancy’s Barn
Ballyliffin
14/03/2025: A beautiful quaint pub in the middle of nowhere in Donegal. Their world famous chowder lives up to its name. They also have some delicious buns and cakes available too.
07/03/2025: Cracking spot for a bit of grub after a swim.

Farren's
Ballygorman
15/02/2025: Called in to Farren's on the recommendation of a local lady we met walking at Malin Head. Did not disappoint - the food was amazing (can seriously recommend the "best of both" or the seafood chowder!). A seriously good pint of Guinness was delivered in no time, and the largest coffee and hot chocolate order they'd ever had set us all on the road again. Staff were really nice, the bar was cosy and we could have sat in beside that log burner all day. A really great find and will definitely be back!
15/01/2025: Great wee pub, very cosy with the log burner on and friendly people & staff. We were allowed to bring our dog in too which was class!!

The Narrow Quarter Bistro & Coffeehouse
Carrowkeel
19/03/2025: The staff was very friendly. The food was amazing! Definitely a place we will return to on future trips!
14/03/2025: Had food there last weekend. Portions were great. My ham toastie was a meal in itself with proper big slices of ham. Onion rings were actually crispy and light, pure class. Finally, it is very rare you go to a place where there are separate fryers/stations etc for gluten free options. My wife is a coeliac and was delighted her chips weren't mixed with regular chips.

Lemon Tree
Letterkenny
07/03/2025: We ate here for the first time in October 2024. Absolutely blown away by the quality of the food and the impeccable service. Excellent value for money and the standard of food is the best experienced in a very long time. This is a must visit if in County Donegal. The beef cheeks and monkfish mains were superb.
10/02/2025: Superb food, starters mains and puddings, All 4 diner's chose different ones, tasting each other's choices. All agreed everything was lovely. The wine list was extensive and fairly priced. The Lemon Tree is not cheap, but rightly so. One you should not miss when in Letterkenny

Cafe Kitty
An bun beag-doirí beaga
13/12/2024: Brilliant. Called in today for a cheeky take away. Chicken goujons and chips. Their chips have a tasty seasoning and the portion was massive. Fionnuala and co are brilliant and so friendly. Drop in for main meal or dessert. They have specials that change all the time. Check out their instagram for videos and photos which are a real representation of what you will get. Never had a poor meal in here.
14/11/2024: This had to have been one of the most filling and tasty 😋 breakfasts I have eaten ,The "poato Hash" Thanks ladies it was fantastic

Harbour Restaurant
Donegal
18/03/2025: We came to Donegal late about 8 pm, i search and is the best puntuation in Google maps.
So we went there. The first contact a waiter that speaks Spanish, that it's a point when in your group not everybody speaks English. When we get the food all was wonderful, probably one of the best hamburguers in ireland that i tried, but the best was the turkey, the stuffing was like my family recipe, tasty and moist that in a turkey is quite difficult. Also the desserts were wonderful.
If you came to Donegal came here. Very recommended.
Dock in the harbour and have a good time.
12/03/2025: Simply excellent. Ireland is generous and friendly. This restaurant reflects all that. And very good music as a bonus. Then on to MC Cafferty's who recommended this good restaurant to us.

Charlie's West End Cafe
Ardara
01/03/2025: Lovely and friendly staff. Very helpful. You will never leave this place hungry. Their jacket potatoes are a must. The fish is always so fresh. You will not go wrong ordering the fish (pan-fried, steamed, or battered). The home made burgers are delicious. Steak is good, too. Have never got anything that was disappointing.
18/01/2025: Great old style greasy spoon. Very friendly staff with good quality and value-for-money food.

Seamus strikes the right balance as an informed, efficient and pleasant front of house operator (ask about the sea shell salt cellars). Deserves all accolades. Will definitely be back.
