The best restaurants in Donegal

01/04/2024: A lovely Easter Monday at Nancy's Barn meeting up with lovely friends & excellent food. Thank you so much.

28/03/2024: Lovely chowder. Hope to be back before too long.

01/04/2024: The movie theater is approximately 36 km away from the Sligo town on the way to Donegal. The theatre occasionally plays Malayalam movies.

03/03/2024: Nice experience visiting eclipse cinemas. I watched a Malayalam movie manjummal boys with my friends. Food court amazing. Clean and pleasant atmosphere.

03/02/2024: A shop that cares about their customers. A very good selection of foodstuff with a difference.

21/01/2024: There's spoonfuls to get glorious about Kate's Kitchen.

24/11/2023: Top notch coffee and snacks, highly recommend 👌

28/10/2023: Truly top rate coffee, one of the best we had in Ireland. Highly recommend.

04/04/2024: We went on spa at Lough Eske yesterday and had the most amazing time. The grounds and entrance provide a grand yet peaceful location. The facilities were just beautiful for the spa and the staff were lovely. Treatments were delightful and Shea happily drove one of our guests with mobility issues to and from the castle. We then enjoyed lunch in the castle bar, to our delight. A wonderful experience and can't wait to return for a long weekend. Thanks to all at Lough Eske. They've earned every star! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

02/04/2024: Castle is a little hidden gem. Bigger than it looks and all kinds of rooms to plop yourselves in and admire the paintings and chandeliers or read a book. Also the food and drink menu were superb. We ate in the Gallery Lounge in front of the fireplace. Our room was in the stables overlooking the gardens. So cute and unique! A big shout out to the 2 concierges, Shea and Dylan! Both were so inviting and provided the history of castle. Both urged us to go explore Slieve League, the highest maritime cliffs in Ireland. We had a fantastic hike and are now enjoying our pints as a reward!

03/03/2024: A perfect evening. One of the best dinners of recent times (in general, not in Ireland), non-obvious dishes very well executed with excellent products, warm and relaxed environment (we ate in the pub downstairs and almost preferred it), exceptional service (friendliness, courtesy and professionalism to spare). And after dinner great music. You can't ask for much more... I wish I had a place like this close to home!! Thank you very much, really!!

13/02/2024: The Bridge is authentic and quaint, with a great pint and friendly team. Brid was an absolute lady and Gavin is always bright and cheery. It is a family affair. Apart from the great hospitality, the food is really good. In 30 years of eating here we never got a bad meal and always enjoyed every single visit. Tell them I sent you 👍

24/03/2024: Wow, just wow. We came here more or less by accident and were blown away by the quality of the pizza. Hands down: This was one of the best pizza we had maybe ever. I can hardly find the words describing it. Their crust is thin and crunchy. The toppings are just the perfect amount and of great quality. We ordered the vegan pizza and a self composed one with chorizo, goat cheese and chili. Both were absolutely mind blowing. I wish I could add something to this review except that they are fantastic and that you should go there. If you're traveling the Rusty Oven is worth a detour. Seriously. It's that good. Maybe even better. (Be aware that you might have to sit outside(-ish) under a roof. So dress accordingly. There is some limited seating in the pub nearby and you might be able to eat your pizza there, but in this case you should order drinks there as well)

15/11/2023: Amazing pizza! For a long time, I was looking for a tasty one, and I found it at The Rusty Oven

12/02/2024: Food was excellent and very good value for money. Will definitely be back. This place is up for sale so I hope new owners maintain quality and value for money.

11/02/2024: Lovely meal over there today service excellent

03/04/2024: Great pub food. Had two meals here over a couple of days and wasn't disappointed. Recommend the nachos.

30/03/2024: If you go to Letterkenny and want to eat and drink well, be sure to go to this place.

02/04/2024: Beautiful hotel and location. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful.

24/03/2024: The cheapest and most comfortable with extraordinary views

23/03/2024: Food was so tasty, the fish goujons were ginormous! The breaded mushrooms were delicious also. Lovely atmosphere and the staff were very friendly and attentive. Can't wait to come back!

04/03/2024: Great time here,great atmosphere,lovely staff,amazing food.

03/03/2024: Nice staff, and comfortable surroundings. Had the Roast Beef lunch special. Would probably revisit when I'm Carndonagh again. Its been a while since my last visit. Standards are still high. Just had the full Irish breakfast here today. Really tasty and filling. Good value for money. Sunday 3-Mar-2024 UPDATED: Phoned today around 11:45am to ask what time they started serving lunch, only to be told by the young lady, after she asked another staff member, that they don't serve lunch on a Sunday. Doesn't sound like a good business model. Came to Google to update my review only to find another review giving feedback on their lunch last Sunday!

25/02/2024: We had an amazing Sunday lunch here today. The kids had fish and burger from kids menu and both were very generous, cooked fresh and tasted amazing according to the children. I had roast beef and it was so full of flavour and again the portion was very generous. The staff were very friendly and helpful. We haven’t eaten out in awhile as a family but found today’s experience to be so pleasant and affordable that I know we will be back in the very near future.

01/04/2024: Busy place in Donegal town. Very varied breakfasts. Delicious 😋 full Irish breakfast and pancakes with fruit. You have parking 🅿️ right next door. With a lot of energy to start our visit to the capital of County Donegal.

29/03/2024: Delicious food, large selection of coffees, fast and friendly service 🙂

30/03/2024: Lovely place and lovely people. Gre At hospitality. Do try the biryani it's amazing.

24/03/2024: This is one of our favourite restaurants/Indian take aways in South Donegal. Food is exceptional, authentic Indian flavours. Their Haryali dish is awesome, a must try! They have a great selection of vegetarian dishes. Vishu & Kritika served us during our recent visit, they were both courteous & efficient.

04/04/2024: I would very highly recommend, what a lovely place! The views are amazing. The rooms are large and very comfortable. The food and service is top class. I cycled from Mizen to Malin and everyone was so welcoming and helpful. Especially with coordinating and helping me get a bus back home. Thanks again! I'll be back!

31/03/2024: Very nice restaurant and great food.
