15/08/2026: I'm traveling from Italy, and this place was a pleasant surprise. We ordered takeout. The portions and quality of the food were truly excellent!

Great Northern Hotel
Bundoran
24/07/2026: i don't understand how people are saying this is bad, i had a great time. Stayed for 2 days in room 145, nice view of the ocean. Anyways there's an amusements 5 minutes away it's great. The food was really good, the provided honey cinnamon sugar and chia seeds (i think??) anyways there's fried eggs, scrambled, sausages, bacon, toast, pancakes,mushrooms, different juice varieties. There's also gluten free cereal for people who need it, black pudding. Not sure about dinner i didn't go to the dinner, but the bar is great aswell. You can bring drinks up to your room, which i don't encounter a lot. I think the only problem is that i couldn't connect to the wifi at room 145. Also there was two double beds and a single one that put in, since i don't like sleeping with my brother (he takes up the entire bed.) There's a tennis court, a swimming pool, a sauna, jacuzzi, steam room, and that's all i know of. The jacuzzi and sauna were amazing but i didn't go in the steam room., Also just know if you see little black insect with red stripes/dots on the wings, it's a cinnabar moth. It is not a beetle. Ahyways, the staff were kind, it was very quiet at night except for my last day, someone kept opening their door at 11pm. I did get to sleep.
22/06/2026: Stayed here for 2 nights, breakfast is excellant to start the day, views over Bundoran bay, also looking across to the Dartry mountains, there is a golf course beside the hotel, 3 course evening meal excellant, plenty of free parking.

Kim Thanh Chinese Takeaway
Bundoran
06/07/2026: We have been regular customers here for years, so this was an incredibly disappointing experience.
On Saturday night, my partner ordered a Chinese takeaway and was told there would be a 40-minute wait. That was absolutely fine with us. We went into The Phoenix for a couple of drinks while we waited.
After around 45 minutes, I went in to collect the order, only to be told it hadn't even been started. I asked why we had been told 40 minutes if the order wasn't even on yet. Instead of an apology or even an explanation, I was immediately met with aggression.
The lady serving repeatedly told me I was being rude. I asked her what I had actually said that was rude, but she couldn't answer. She just kept repeating that I was being rude, told me to "look how busy we are," and then said, "Cancel it if you want." So I did.
The delay wasn't the issue. We completely understand that places get busy. A simple "I'm sorry, we're running behind" would have been enough. What wasn't acceptable was being made to feel like I had done something wrong simply for asking a reasonable question.
This seems to be happening far too often nowadays, where customers are made to feel like they're the problem for raising a concern. That's not good customer service—it's dismissive and, in my opinion, a form of gaslighting. Rather than acknowledging the situation, I was made to question my own behaviour when all I had done was ask why our order wasn't ready.
When my partner later spoke to Kim to explain what had happened, he was told that I was "consumed." That was equally disappointing. Instead of listening to a loyal customer, the situation was brushed aside.
After years of supporting this business, we won't be back. Delays happen—we all understand that. But there is never an excuse for treating customers with hostility and then making them feel they're at fault for asking a simple, reasonable question. Bring Back Tracey!!

KFC
Bundoran
19/08/2026: Food was good. Some of the staff clearly didn’t want to be there and the toilet facilities were a disgrace , filthy and the ladies door was smashed in..
14/08/2026: Called at bundoran outlet whilst on holiday with visitors from England - worst experience of any KFC I have visited.
Made an order for meals for 4 people and had to return to counter on 3 occasions in order to get everything I had paid for.
Tables / floors were not clean and toilets were absolutely filthy with excrement clearly evident in bowl and bowl almost overflowing.
Disgusting standards and not in keeping with expectations.
I won’t be back anytime soon.

Marine Bar
Bundoran
28/04/2026: The atmosphere was incredibly welcoming, and the staff's genuine warmth and friendliness especially Aaron made the experience truly memorable for me and my friends definitely will be our number 1 pub to visit every time that we will be back in Bundoran💚🤍🧡
21/03/2026: The pub it self had a great atmosphere and decent music however staff were unkind. On multiple occasions throughout the night I watched staff physically hurt customers. I had an extremely unpleasant experience with one member of staff who was bald and had a tattoo on his face. There was a young girl feeling ill in the bathroom and she had asked me to go and get her a drink of water which I did. When I walked into the LADIES bathroom the worker followed me in and grabbed the back of my neck before forcibly pulling me out of the bar. The worker shouted out to me “you heard me the first time you aren’t allowed drinks in the bathroom” however I had been unaware of the policy’s existence and therefore I tried to explain to him what had happened. The staff member did not care and proceeded to kick me out of the bar where he pushed me hard on my back to the point I have bruising. As he pushed me out the door he threw the cup of water out behind me and shouted “there’s your drink” . This was on st. Patrick’s day just yesterday and it’s safe to say that the staff were stressed but there is absolutely no call for the physical abuse I received and the abuse given to others which was far worse. I believe a local man called the police who came down and sent the bouncer home and the bar closed after this . Male staff were extremely rude and angry to us throughout the night and were dragging anyone who didn’t have a drink in their hand out. Absolutely will not be back and will be advising others to avoid.

The Watermelon Restaurant
Bundoran
31/07/2026: Delicious food. Fantastic service. Beautiful views. Can't ask for more really.
25/07/2026: My boyfriend and I arrived at the doors to be rudely greeted by two men at the door, who’s first question was “room number” not even a hello… when I told him we weren’t guests he told us that we couldn’t dine there. I followed up by ringing reception and was then told that it was infact open to the public with no booking required but yet noway of checking availability of the restaurant. I feel as if we were rejected based on appearance. Will not be returning here.
