YES PLEASE!!! The…read moremoment I saw this restaurant / bar that resembled a castle I knew I belonged in this pub asap. Thankfully, the experience did not disappoint. Wide array of interesting items like Venison Pie you will see on the menu here. I did choose the Venison Pie, and it was sweet and tasty. The seafood soup was very good as well and was decorated with a puffy fish and I want to say a mint of some sort put in place of where an eyeball would go, very cute indeed! 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. As always people SYOY!!!

Luckily we weren't in a rush and enjoying the experience but after 40 minutes between apps and entrees we started to worry our food went somewhere else lol. The Fish and chips and the Wild venison pie were good but pretty basic but we did enjoy the ambience.

A good basic bar with live music 7 nights a week, and a mix of locals & tourists…read more So your a tourist in Donegal during the week and all the pubs are dead. 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. ;)
