The best restaurants in Donegal

11/12/2024: This is a simply fantastic establishment - amazing food, service and vibe - we were visiting from England to see friends but I would definitely make the journey just to come back here again!!

18/12/2024: Went on Sunday 15th December 2024 for lunch with the whole family. A really beautiful place, fabulous food and friendly, welcoming staff who looked after us so well, the service was brilliant! Would highly recommend Nancy's Barn.

21/11/2024: I have dined in Nancy's Barn many times. The food is brilliant and not too expensive . The service is good and the staff are polite and very helpful.

30/12/2024: Quay West never dissapoints, The quality of the food is superb, Jo and the gang do their very best to make you feel welcome.

22/12/2024: I had emailed the owner to book a table for 2 to celebrate a big birthday for my husband and mentioned to her of the occasion at the time of booking. She requested further information with a professional attention to detail. On arrival to the restaurant, I was very happy with our table by the window. The owner herself took our order and was very warm and friendly introducing herself and having the chat. We shared a Bottle of Spanish Tempranillo for €28 which was good. We both decided to forego a starter to focus on the main event. I chose the 10z Rib Eye Steak (€32.50) with mushroom and onions and silkie whiskey and maple sauce (recommended by the owner) and included side of my choice (fries). My husband picked the 9oz Sirloin steak (€30.95) with mushrooms and onions and peppercorn sauce and (upgraded) side of garlic herb roasted potatoes with a supplement of €1.50. We both added 4 craft beer battered king prawns for €6.95 each to our steaks. We were both impressed with the steak (& how they were cooked to our asking), battered prawns, respective sauces, mushrooms and herby potatoes. We thought there was excess onions on each of our plates. We shared the infamous caramel crunchie Sundae at €9.50 which was good. Overall, I did think the dessert options were an area to improve on the menu. I was delighted that staff marked my husband's birthday with a flare candle suitably embarrassing him. I loved the fuss made of him and the occasion so big thank you🙌🥳 I would recommend here for dinner and a special occasion where a deserved fuss is made on request. Hope to return in the future when we are up that neck of the woods.

04/12/2024: Cosy, warm, excellent food & staff - just a little too expensive.

28/12/2024: The food, atmosphere and staff here are just the best around. We come to Rathmullan on holiday twice a year and Belle's is always a highlight- we visit nearly every day! Thoroughly recommend the amazing cakes too. The bread is fantastic

25/12/2024: We can across this place after the getting the car ferry from Buncranna and had an amazing breakfast. They bake fantastic breads and all sorts. Our food was outstanding. I had devilled mushrooms cooked in a rosemary butter with smoked paprika. It was a year ago and I still think about it-yum :)) A must visit if you’re in the area

06/01/2025: Went to the Boathouse before Xmas with some friends. We all had Halibut which was recommended by the fantastic friendly chef. It was by far the best food I tasted in all of 2024 ! Service was excellant too.

06/01/2025: Have been coming here for 4 years. Always excellent and thoughtful fish dishes, and a superb sticky toffee pudding. Took a table of 11(!) on New Year's Eve and service didn't falter at all. Get a patio table in the summer if you can. Wine list could probably be jazzed up a bit.

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.
