The best restaurants in Ballyliffin

13/09/2026: Lovely food, portions are very big, almost too big. Staff are lovely and accommodating. Would recommend

30/08/2026: I found Nancy’s Barn on Google Maps while looking for a place to have a late lunch after a day touring the Northern Irish Coast. We are on holiday from the USA and places like Nancy’s Barn are making our trip special. It’s a gem that’s off the beaten path and just down the road from Malin Head. The menu is creative and the chowder is definitely a star (with a rich history). The fish tacos were quite tasty and prepared perfectly - they go well with onion rings. And I really enjoyed the apple crumble to finish off the meal. The staff are friendly and fast. We got to meet Kieran (the owner) on the way out and that made our visit even better. He’s so energetic and nice and really proud of his restaurant. Do yourself a favor and stop here if you’re in the area.

15/06/2026: Enjoyed a fantastic short spa break at Ballyliffen. Very warm welcome at reception. The hotel is spotless rooms bright and airey. Spa experience is just luxury at a more fair and reasonable price. There is also a health suite and a gym fully equipped. Food is to die for with portions very generous. A visit is definately recomended and views are breath taking. Staff are warm and friendly home from home relax in luxury.

11/06/2026: Excellent hotel been many times and never disappoints. Friendly staff and food is good, with good range of options at breakfast. Recent refurbishment has really helped make something good to an evening higher level. Highly recommend.
