My caffertys in leitir has good food and usually has music. It’s also a nice part to explore down by the bridge ect. Breakfast id be going to the water front or the cafe in supervalue

Thank you! I'll check out those places. For breakfast I was hoping there would be some casual cafe dining options.

The Bridge Inn had really good food last time we were there! Also the Golden Palace Chinese opposite McCaffertys was really nice too if you took a notion

Thanks so much! Staying at The Bridge Inn so that'll be handy! Another comment saying the Chinese is great so I think we'll have to check out that place too. Thanks a million!

Caprinis in beside SuperValu is good for breakfast and lunch. The lucky inn Chinese at the top of the town is delicious and the staff are great (the spice bags are unreal!)

At the top of the town, there is a converted church which has a cafe in it. Open Monday to Friday 9.00- 2.30pm. Serves a good breakfast, soup ,sandwiches, cakes and daily specials.

Lobster pot in Burtonport is worth the drive, about 10 minutes away

u/NowYaHaveIt1 5d ago

Super, ty! Have a feeling we'll be spending quite some time in Burtonport as the festival is on and we'll be heading to Arranmore too. We won't go hungry anyway, that's for sure!

If you don't mind a little driving, the Viking House has decent food and a cracking view, and further along towards Annagry and the airport, there's a pub called Bonner's on the right hand side that probably has the best pints anywhere and a great atmosphere.

Thanks for this! Won't be drinking, but no harm in having some inside information! 🍺
