I have eaten here a number of times with different guests and by myself. I have never been disappointed and everyone I have dined with have also been very pleased. The steak and the seafood platter are the two dishes I always order, they are cooked to perfection and the portions are good value. The staff are always very friendly... More

We went to three restaurants looking for a bite to eat, all of which had already closed and sent us away. By god fortune as we were driving away, we came across the Harbour restaurant which is set back a... More

I ate their today with 3 family members. We all enjoyed our food and cleared our plates. My steak was cooked how I requested it. Toilets very clean. Only negative, is the seating. None of my family are overweight yet we had trouble trying to get into and out of our seats. Overall, would definetly eat there again.

We arrived rather late one evening in Donegal Town, and at the suggestion of our B & B hosts (she even called over there to make sure they were still serving), we had a wonderful dinner. Our server was super nice and the food was terrific. I know it's weird to go to Ireland and have a pizza, but that's... More

We were lucky to get a table on Saturday evening, but it was worth it for the excellent fish and chips. Friendly waitress and good Guinness.
