Overall Value: This is good value and probably the best bet in the area. The food is good (though…read morecertainly not as good as other parts of Ireland), especially given the lack of other options, good portions, and friendly service. We actually came back for dinner two nights in a row, so that is a good sign. The Food: We had the chicken curry (€13.95), fish n chips (€15.45), and a half-dozen oysters on the first night. Generous portions. The fish was crispy and had pretty good flavor, I would recommend. The chicken curry was a little bland and forgettable, so I would pass. The chips were fine - we opted to get the curry with half and half (half chips/half rice), so that was a nice option. Need some rice to soak up the curry. The oysters were really nice and fresh, although not cheap, so that was probably a bit of a splurge. On the second night, it was their weekly Monday steak special, where you choose two steak dinners from a list for I believe about €25 (don't quote me exact price, but it was a good deal). We picked the 10 oz sirloin with peppercorn sauce, and the cock and bull (a dish with a strips of steak, chicken, mashed potatoes and fried onions). Both steak dishes were well cooked and had decent flavors, and at the price, I had no complaints. Space and Pace: A lively bar on both nights. Literally everyone orders steaks on steak night (who wouldn't?) so it was a bit more crowded. A nice place for dinner or a drink The Service: Really friendly staff, although they lost us for a bit when it got crowded.

Went here on a whim as it was on my way back to town…read more Ambiance was ok, it's a tavern and they're famous for their music didn't expect anything different than what it was. Three very young waitresses, poor listening skills, busy chatting with each other. They did get busy when a middle aged man showed up (owner?) ;-) Food ordered: fish and chips came with side salad. Chips arrived lukewarm and limp; fish ok; tartar sauce lacking any personality as did the side salad. Perhaps: come for the music not the food or service.

Then roll over to the Reel Inn (it's just at corner near the bridge) where they have live music every night of the week and usually a good crowd. As a local (or ex-local) going in here for the 1st time I felt like I'd walked into Deliverance (google it), some odd folk from the bogs, townies, rockers, and maybe a few fellas barred from all the other pubs in town, and then mixed in is usually a load of English tourists, and surprisingly it works! Everyone's having the craic, these bog critters are friendly and are trying to wind me up, we'll all supping our drinks and enjoying the music, the tourists are dancing away, and usually it's a great night, and everyone's good and drunk by the end of the night and I mean drunk. Sometimes the music is hit-or-miss, sometimes it's a bit of jam session, other times it's quite good. On quite nights there may not be many musicians there and the owner get's up and play. And both him and the missus are decent friendly folk. I just wish they poured a better Guinness or had a nice Heff-Weisse. ;)

I remember loving the large oysters and great local beer on tap. Highly recommend if you are in the Donegal area. The Donegal Castle is not far from here as well if you want to make a day out of it.
