Spent a week in Donegal & Derry, ate at some posh places... Ahoy gave us our best meal by far! The breakfast was superb - especially the honey roasted tomatoes with sesame seeds! I stuck my head in to the kitchen to nick some ideas, and they were wonderful! If I wasn't hundreds of miles away I'd eat there most days!

This pink painted exterior of this restaurant creates a certain amount of intrigue as does itâs name. âQuaint & Commercialâ or âLocal, inviting & authenticâ ? Most definitely the latter is our experience. The atmosphere upon arrival is warm - more Kath Kidston than olde worlde Ireland - and the welcoming smiles from the young waiting staff was super. The menu does its job in that the taste buds are jolted into anticipation as the content is read. Thereafter, we had a fantastic night all round. The food is âstand outâ - the lobster âspecialâ was to die for ( and thatâs just an example ! ). Service was outstanding and the overall environment âexcellentâ... Donna ( the co-owner ) was on hand throughout the proceedings but tellingly she âpresentedâ as âone of the teamâ and not âthe Bossâ. Speaking to her staff, they seemed proud that theyâd been with her and her husband from the outset - and were part of the creation of what is an undoubtedly fantastic business for them ; a superb experience for us ! Congratulations... Happy Birthday Hazel !

I went with my cousin Mary when I visited in June - in fact we went 3 times in 5 days it was so good. Food delicious, one very small criticism is there should have been finger bowls provided after I had eaten the Chicken Wings to clean my hands and a side plate to put the bones on. These small extras make such a difference and are usually standard in good restaurants. Apart from that excellent.I really enjoyed the Sunday lunch excellent value for money. The staff are very helpful, polite and efficient. Annie Meszaros

Mellys was Opened in 1956 and is still run by the same family. You can sit in and take in the beautiful view of the large fishing port and watch the world go by. Mellys has a friendly relaxed atmosphere. Full Take away menu also available.

Melly's was recommended to us for dinner when we stayed at the Seawinds B & B. It was a great find! We enjoyed a wonderful meal of fish and chips. Nothing more, nothing less. Don't go to Melly's for the ambiance, but go for great, fresh seafood. You will not be disappointed.

I can't tell you how often I've driven past this place; it wasn't until I saw a review on google I think that I decided to give it a try. I'd never really noticed it before - I would recommend better signage from the road, as I'm annoyed at myself for having missed it!!!Such a lovely location. Great open, modern space, with beautiful views out onto Killybegs bay. Fab for anyone with mobility difficulties as there is a lift up.Above everything though, the food is just excellent. Great range of beautiful seafood, and wonderful desserts. I'm so happy to have found this place and really look forward to returning soon!Thank you!Hi Kathleen, thanks so much for your lovely review, we're delighted you enjoyed your meal, We are in the process on getting road signage as we are a bit lost alright but we will get there! Thanks again and we look forward to seeing you soon,Linda and Gary x
