Went here without a reservation on a busy Saturday night- staff were really obliging and sorted is out with a table for 5. The food was all delicious- fish and chips amazing and a beef ragu that was melt in the mouth.

Applegreen

Reviewed By John A

There are many Applegreen stops all over Ireland and I seem to have called in to many of them. They are more to be found at motorway services and they offer a pretty standard coffee and snack experience. Judging by the number of people stopping before continuing on their journey this is just what is wanted.

The Lunch Box

Reviewed By annie1960

Visited here with my husband sister and brother in law - three of us had toasties which looked really bland no garnish or crisps / chips served with them just the sandwich placed on a serviette we thought it was very poor for €4.50 each - my husband had a wrap and had to leave half of it as the serviette had stuck to it & you couldn't peel it off !!!

We came ashore from a sailing expedition and found our way to Belle's Kitchen. Busy little place but they found us a table for six. Service efficient and friendly, food quality and presentation excellent. I would recommend dining here and hope to do so again.

The Town Clock

Reviewed By michaelbQ9222AA

Reasonable rate and pleasantly accommodating hosts. An ample well made breakfast was promptly brought to a well set table. My only reservation would have been the instant coffee served in a coffee press...no grains gave it away...why bother?The bed was comfy and the room has a small refrigerator for keeping you bottled water cold. A nice newly renovated washroom with a power shower made our stay comparable to a hotel.All tolled, The Town Clock is very handy to the night life and local scenery of Buncrana.

I stopped off here for a coffee while in Buncrana.This is a nice coffee shop, and the Bakewell tarts are Delicious.The staff are so nice and helpful regarding allergens etc. My coffee and Tart was very reasonable. It was a nice day and I had my coffee "all fresco". There is limited parking across the road so you may have to park around the corner. I will be back for more another day.

I was in Buncrana and fancied a quick lunch when I came across The Coffee Cup. Glad I found it. The toasted ham cheese tomato and onion sandwich was delicious. Also the coffee was excellent too. Definitely worth checking out if in the area.

Being at this lovely quaint cafe b efore I brought my sister for the first time. Had tea and cake served lovely. Then not even there 5 minutes had to move to let the corner table out. That was fine. One minute later had to move to let the next tea goers in. Then within 30 seconds had to move again to let the waitress in to clear the same table. I told her this is the 3rd time I had moved in 5 minutes her response " I need to clear the table". I figured I am going to have to move to let her out and move again for her to bring the tea in . 5 times that would be. I wanted a relaxing and well deserved cup of tea. Wasn't getting it here so decided to leave . The waitress not understanding at all. Gone down in my estimation. Such a shame
