The best restaurants in Sligo

16/07/2026: One of the best burgers I've ever tasted. My wife and son felt the same. I'm not sure of the name of the lad who welcomed and seated us (11/07), but he was excellent, and his energy was terrific. Great stuff :)

15/07/2026: Great serving times despite operating at close-to-full capacity. Modern, comfortable presentation of food. Very friendly staff. Great fries, along with one of the best burgers I've ever had. Would absolutely recommend after a long journey or for a social outing with friends.

01/07/2026: What a brilliant traditional Irish pub! Popped in to watch the World Cup match and had a fantastic time — great atmosphere, 3 screens, and a perfect pint. Huge bonus: extremely dog-friendly with my pup welcomed inside without any hassle. The staff were excellent — friendly, welcoming, and made us feel right at home. Authentic vibe, and proper Irish hospitality. Will definitely make a point of visiting again someday. Highly recommend!

30/06/2026: Great bar, stopped here for a pint tuned into several and a whisky tasting platter, very highly recommend

11/07/2026: OMG, we have just finished our main course, everyone in our party of 7 is raving about the food. Unique food, incredible flavours, a perfect culinary experience. Get in here folks, and it’s BYOB - bonus!!

08/07/2026: Such delicious food and great price value

14/06/2026: Really tasty burgers - fresh and hot served.

11/06/2026: Lovely and very friendly place, staff always very helpful and helpful

06/06/2026: Stayed for a wedding, had a very pleasant time. The views are beautiful and the reception for the wedding was delightful. The rooms are very comfortable and the voya spa products in the bathroom and give a luxury feel. Anything we needed the staff were very hospitable. the breakfast option for gluten free wasn’t great and unfortunately there was contamination with a hair in my mushrooms.

23/07/2026: Food is really not great. Chicken is over cooked and very dry. Fish and chips were just okay. We’ve had better here in Ireland. Disappointed after seeing all the blogs about this place. They clearly pay for a lot of publicity. I wouldn’t go back.

21/07/2026: Not very sure where all the awards from, we have been eating at so many restaurants and this is by far one of the worst. The children chicken tenders are not too bad hence the 2 stars but I got bang bang chicken salad and my husband got the pork belly and I had to say to hardest chicken I ever taste, maybe that's why it's called bang bang. The taste is not too bad but the texture is just so hard to chew, the fries are not great either. I left half of my dish and was so disappointed

11/05/2026: After a flight from NYC and drive from Dublin while exploring Sligo we happened into Donaghy's bar. We were meet by Andy who sat us for an early dinner. We started out with a delicious cocktail & a Guinness. We ate in the bar area starting with their homemade loaf that was really good. Seafood chowder and an order of bruschetta was next. Our mains were beef guinness stew & fisherman pie. Everything was delicious. Andy took his time to welcome us to Sligo before moving on to the Coach Lane to prepare for the dinner crowd. If you are ever in Sligo this place is a must. They have been in business over 30 years.

07/05/2026: Ordered a had two steaks, both overcooked

20/06/2026: Really delicious food and great service

07/06/2026: I loved this place - very friendly staff and best veggie soup with soda bread I had while visiting Ireland.

27/06/2026: We didn't have food just a Guinness which was fab

11/05/2026: Horrible food, we ordered a burger tasted like just like a come out from someone's fridge and microwaved. The chips is even worse than KFC fries. I would not recommend anyone for trying their food, you gonna regret it from every second

16/07/2026: The food here is great except the pho. I ordered a Vietnamese pho and was brought dishwater soup. The soup tasted like nothing no flavor, no authenticity, completely bland. The beef was also tasteless, another huge disappointment. The vegetables in the dish is just a disgrace to Vietnamese culture. Would definitely not order this again. Please save yourselves and your tastebuds from this godforsaken dishwater soup.

05/07/2026: Food is fantastic as always and the service is really quick. Servers were really kind and attentive thank you

11/07/2026: The food at Hargadon Bros was genuinely delicious. I had the fish and chips and my girlfriend had the burger with avocado, and we’d have no complaints on that front. Unfortunately, the service let the experience down. We were seated in a nook to the left of the room, which was cosy enough but seemed to leave us invisible to the staff, and getting attention took real effort throughout the evening. The low point was dessert: after flagging down a waitress, we ordered and were brought two spoons - but the dessert itself never came. After waiting 20 minutes, I gave up and went looking for someone to bring the bill instead. A waiter did notice the spoons on our table and asked if we’d ordered dessert, but by then we no longer wanted it. Lovely food, but the service needs attention - especially for tables tucked out of sight.

07/07/2026: We arrived naively on a Saturday night when they were very busy and we could not get a table. Most places would say no and that be it. But the extremely nice hostess walked us outside and gave us great recommendations for other places to try. She took the time and effort even thought they were busy inside. You can best believe that we will be coming back here on our next trip and will remember to make a booking here due to their super nice staff and because the food smelled amazing!

21/07/2026: Did not disappoint. 5 stars all round.

17/07/2026: Food well cooked, presentation was average. Staff well intentioned but need training. Pricing was top end and not worth it. Disappointed.
