Quay West

Top choice in County Donegal


A light-filled, contemporary dining room is an inviting setting to sample local seafood (Donegal bay mussels, Burtonport crab, Killybegs smoked haddock) and other well-executed dishes like Guinness-braised shank of Donegal lamb or wild-mushroom risotto. Try to get a table upstairs with views out over the bay. An early-bird menu is available from 5pm to 6.30pm Monday to Friday.
