We stayed in the camping site in our campervan. there are some mobile homes on site, not sure if they are private or for rent. The campsite is nice and small, well maintained and has all the facilities. Food in the bar was traditional pub grub and what we got was tasty, with generous portions. the atmosphere in the bar was great - locals and tourists chatting away. I cannot wait for things to warm up a bit so we can go back.

tl;dr: Deadly bar, good (if a bit too cold and not stellar) pints, very good food…read more On the pints: It seems like up north -- at least in Donegal -- pints are served very very cold. To my Dublin-familiar mind, this makes the pints a bit bitter and takes away some of the depth of flavour. In any case, this is how they were served here. However: They were really good. Sticking to the glass, with loads of time taken, and hitting the spot after a long Dhún na nGall day in the sun. On the food: A simple menu printed on A4 with pretty basic stuff. But then yer man comes out and tells us that there's fish on: Trout and Hake. This was quite possibly the freshest fish we had. Slow service -- they had to get out there and find the fish, I suppose -- but it was bloody delicious, served with lovely spuds and cabbage and bacon. Been through a few changes in management over the years, but all local folk doing good work. This is a standout pub in a sand-out area.

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. ;)

THe inside is a typical pub, stools, tables, stage. They have an outdoor smoking area which is really great because it also has a cover for when it rains. The live band they had on saturday was incredible. The age is a bit young i .e I think majority were 18 - 21 years old. Drinks are pretty reasonable - i think it was 4€ (shows how good a time I had!), they also had fishbowls which i remember were 10 euros and was a great sharing idea to change it up from beer. But staff and locals really friendly, expect to not really understand the tipsy-drunk ones with the donegal accent. But was a good craic and definitely will be back here again!
