The best restaurants in Donegal

23/04/2025: Nice decor, passable food, subpar service. Doesn't add up to justify the hefty price tag. Thinks it’s more than it is. Disappointing experience overall.

04/04/2025: Passing through Killybegs one evening, we called in to Tara Hotel restaurant for an evening meal. The staff were excellent , the premises were recently revamped to a high standard. The food was excellent with large portions and we would certainly recommend this venue.

30/07/2025: Very very disappointing. The coffee was so bad that we went back to the counter and we were told that's just how it is. The soup was tasty. The grounds & park are beautiful, but the tea room is a let down.

17/06/2025: Big disappointment. We were here a few years ago, the food was very good. That's why we decided to invite our guests to this place. We will definitely never go back there. After 3 pm a lot of smoothies were unavailable, but still on the board soup and fries too. Food without taste pasta salad with one dried tomato is a kind of joke. Quiche not heated enough Service just like food not the best. Outdoor tables low, uncomfortable chairs. I don't recommend it to people who value the quality of food

01/09/2025: Great food and good price lots of street parking 👍

02/01/2026: Cute local pub with a pool table. I played many games with the local kids.

28/05/2025: We travel a distance to eat here and it never disappoints. Lovely friendly staff, amazing food. Highly recommend the butter chicken or Chicken pomegranate. Mouth watering, good portions and excellent value for money.

27/05/2025: The first time here and we were not disappointed. Excellent food and service...and the owner Mohammed remembered us from 20 odd yrs ago in Belfast...lovely ambient restaurant with lovely staff...highly recommend....

17/06/2025: Busy busy busy but this small eatery was well worth the wait - absolutely delicious chicken pie and Quiche but served with a lovely mixed salad - very reasonable and very tasty. Will definitely be back and would recommend - remember it was busy but that's a good sign

16/04/2025: First timers and 3 generations had a bite to eat here after over 2 hours in Tropical World. We had cooled down whilst waiting for the children to run themselves ragged in the covered but outdoor play area. On entering the cafe, it was warm and inviting until we spotted people leaving a table and went to make a move to get it and were informed of the queuing system for a table by a staff member and a couple in front of us who would get the table. We waited probably about 5 minutes for another table to be vacated: it felt quite long with 2 children aged 6 and under who were hopping from one foot to the other. In the meantime, we ordered a latte €3.50, cappuccino €3.50, 2 fruit shoots (€1.50 each), one chocolate brownie €3, one coffee cake €3 and a slice of lemon meringue €4.95. Coffees and tray bakes were very good but star of the show was the lemon meringue which was DIVINE. Overall, I thought here was quite reasonable given the climate. We thawed out, warmed up and got our sugar hit and rolled out of here. We would return maybe for some quiche next time and definitely some lemon meringue 🍋😋.

14/02/2026: Around great place to get food the staff are great the food is great easy parking and you wont be left hungry as they cater for all our needs
