22/08/2026: Lovely staff and great food selection which was served fast.

20/08/2026: I observed maggie the manager clearly and publicly bullying the staff which was unreal to watch and especially during such a busy part of their shifts where it was hectic. Public humiliation when working at full speed was ridiculous and as someone who has worked in hospitality that was really difficult to watch. Great food, great service, terrible management!

26/08/2026: Food is decent , but honestly eating with a wooden fork and then asking for tips ? Yeah honestly a bit of cutlery and the place would be a top choice

23/08/2026: Decent food but its a thundering disgrace that they charge extra for refried beans when no such arbitrary toll exists for the other bean options.

10/06/2026: It was great and the manager was absolutely wonderful.

06/06/2026: Stayed in downing Bay hotel along with 40+ other golfers on 4th June 2026 .. what a fabulous hotel very friendly and helpful staff nothing was any bother for them.

06/08/2026: Some Asian dishes on the menu like gado gado, satay, and noodles, which is a nice change from the standard Irish food. It was very tasty. The service was a bit disorganized.

01/07/2026: Vegan, vegetarian & plant-based travelers: just call ahead, and the kitchen will make sure to have a full menu of vegan starters and mains for you to choose from. Make sure to mention how many members of group are vegan, so that they can plan accordingly. We were very impressed with the service, and with the quality of the vegan options. We will definitely be returning soon!

28/04/2026: Didn't stick around long as we only collected our order but the food was great the pizzas were done very quickly, considering we ordered when we got into the carpark. Lovely service people were very friendly and welcoming.

15/04/2026: Dominos in letterkenny is pretty good. I really value the fact that the place is consistent with it's food and the delivery times are fairly fast. As a chef myself, I'm extremely hypercritical when it comes to matters of food hygiene and I've never had any "red flags" raised when I'm picking up my order. We make an order once every 2 weeks and never had to return anything or had an order arrive incorrectly. Only ever had an issue once and it was rectified quickly and professionally. So honestly, you can't really go wrong here. In terms of pizza, it's on point! I might add by the way, the delivery driver, Aidan/Aiden is genuinely one of the nicest delivery drivers I've ever come across. Always a positive experience with him and he's super friendly and genuine every single time he's the one delivering our food. 10/10 on that as well

03/07/2026: We booked a last minute table for 4 on Wednesday night, we were met by a lovely lady with a big smile, we ordered or food it was so fresh, tasted great, we had too children with us and they cleared their plates, prices was good too, we will definitely be back when we visit letterkenny again 😀

26/06/2026: I Ordered On The 26th June 2026 At Around 4 35pm It Arrive At Around 5 15pm The Delivery Driver Is Friendly. Chicken Balls and Chips Are Good and The Driver Got Me Regular Coke Instead Of Diet But That's Okay I Would Order Here Again.
