Blueberry
Donegal
19/03/2026: We stopped into The Blueberry Room recently and had such a lovely experience. The café has a bright, calming atmosphere, and the seating is genuinely lovely — comfortable, well laid out, and perfect for settling in. The whole place has a great vibe, relaxed but lively enough to feel welcoming.
We ordered a chicken goujons wrap, a quiche, a latte, and a cappuccino. Everything was fresh, tasty, and well-presented. The wrap was packed with flavour, the quiche had that proper homemade feel, and both coffees were smooth and really well made. They also have a great variety of pastries, all looking fresh and tempting — definitely something I’d come back to try.
One thing to note: when the sun is shining, there can be a bit of a wait because it’s such a popular spot. Honestly, the only tricky part is finding a parking space nearby — once you’re inside, it’s well worth it.
The staff were friendly, attentive, and warm throughout, even though the café was busy. It’s the kind of service that makes you want to return.
If you’re in Donegal Town and looking for a cosy spot with good food, great coffee, and a lovely atmosphere, The Blueberry Room is absolutely worth a visit. We’ll definitely be back.
14/02/2026: An incredible find in Donegal town. The staff are unbelievably attentive and the decoration is just as unique as the food. Scones and pies are my suggestion.

The Gateway Lodge,Donegal Town
Donegal
24/03/2026: You will not receive a warmer welcome than from the lady on reception here. Genuinely friendly, very kind. The rooms are beautiful, spacious and warm on this chilly March night 2026. Beautiful centre rose on the ceiling, impecibly decorated, very big comfortable bed, dresser, lovely table and seating area in our superior double room. Breakfast for 2 is included for 160 euros, it is worth every penny. I highly recommend this lovely hotel in beautiful Donegal Town.
16/03/2026: A lovely hotel, very well located near Donegal Castle. The staff were pleasant.
The only slight drawback is that the rooms aren't very well soundproofed.
But if we're ever in the area again, we wouldn't hesitate to stay at this hotel.
