04/10/2025: Visited here with my family on a trip to Donegal . Everything was amazing the food was some of the best quality I have had in a long time . The service was also brilliant honestly one of the best meals I’ve had out in a while I couldn’t recommend it enough !
18/09/2025: Had read some really positive reviews so when we visited the area recently we booked in. It didn't disappoint.

Fisherman's Wharf
Buncrana
23/08/2025: This place came up when I searched for nearby places and I immediately liked the photos and it didnt dissapoint, quiet little spot that did nice coffee and a nice slice of cake. Will be going back tomorrow morning for some breakie. Edit: went back for breakfast and was lovely
19/07/2025: We ordered sandwiches for a wedding after party held in town. We thought we left it too late but the staff at the Fisherman's Warf were fantastic and advised on how much we needed for 30 guests. They delivered all the food on time and the sandwiches were delicious!
Thank you!

Tank and Skinny's Seaside
Buncrana
07/10/2025: No matter how often we visit, it's excellent, the view out over the Lough Willy be it a sunny day or stormy, the coffee, food and service is top notch
21/09/2025: Where Buncrana’s sea whispers secrets to the shore, a seaside haven hums with quiet enigma. Lunch unfolds like a riddle, served by faces warm as hidden coves, their kindness a subtle spell. The food—sublime, woven from the region’s deepest flavors—unravels on the tongue. Cozy yet vast, the space holds you close, while the view, a wild tapestry of ocean and sky, guards its own mysteries. A place where heart and horizon conspire.

The Drift Inn
Buncrana
04/09/2025: Pub in old Buncrana railway station a bit outside the town centre
Nice bar area inside , Bar built from a old boat and roof timbers like a upturned keel of a ship ,Real fire nice and cosy
Pizza only and then only weekends
Some reviews say it’s dog friendly but bar staff said dogs not allowed in bar only in outside area
30/08/2025: Nice old converted railway ticket station bar. Large outdoor seating area. Even though next to seafront, no views. Great DJ knocking out the 80’s hits!

Oscars
Buncrana
26/09/2025: This place is great for coeliacs, I ordered the chicken & bacon Caesar salad without the croutons. The waitress then told me they could make it with gluten free croutons. That’s very rare, that was a treat. Ordered it with a side of mash. Delicious.
My daughter ordered the chicken goujons with a side of garlic potatoes. The goujons come with a bbq and garlic dip. The garlic dip is amazing.
Anyone who is gluten free there is a full gluten free menu. Even the chips can be done in a separate gluten free fryer so avoids any cross contamination.
Lovely food and very friendly staff. Highly recommend.
11/09/2025: Cafe type restaurant. Average food.

O'Flaherty's
Buncrana
22/08/2025: A great pub with a great atmosphere. Shows lots of sport and has traditional live music. Has a beer garden out the back. Is enjoyed by young and old. Relaxing during the day but can get very busy and noisy in the evening at weekends but that's not a bad thing. Staff are always very friendly.
21/04/2025: It's one of the best bars around. Great atmosphere and the service is excellent. It's worth a visit. Amazing Guinness, too. All round great pub.
