Dining at Arnolds Hotel – Fresh Local Flavours on Donegal’s Wild Atlantic Way

Arnolds Hotel offers a range of dining experiences, from our seasonal Restaurant to the relaxed and welcoming atmosphere of our Whiskey Fly Bar & Bistro, overlooking Sheephaven Bay on Donegal’s beautiful Wild Atlantic Way.

As proud members of the Donegal Food Coast, our à la carte menu celebrates the finest local ingredients from land and sea, including fresh seafood from Sheephaven Bay, Horn Head lamb, and seasonal vegetables from nearby farms. Be sure to explore our Daily Specials Board, showcasing the freshest local catch and seasonal produce carefully prepared by our Chefs.

Whether you're joining us for a relaxed lunch, afternoon tea, an evening meal, private dining or a special celebration, Arnolds offers something for every occasion. We cater for birthdays, anniversaries, baby showers, christenings, retirements, graduations, team-building events and fundraisers, with menus and dining options to suit your gathering.

Our commitment to homemade food and local produce extends to our freshly baked Wheaten and Guinness breads, buttery shortbreads, homemade scones served with fresh cream and jams, and delicious desserts prepared by our Pastry Chef using seasonal fruits from our gardens, including rhubarb, gooseberries, blackcurrants, apples and pears.

Restaurant & Bistro Dining

Please note that our main Restaurant operates seasonally and may not be open every evening, particularly during quieter periods. When the Restaurant is closed, dinner is served in our Whiskey Fly Bar & Bistro, where guests can enjoy the same full à la carte dinner menu in a more relaxed setting.

We strongly recommend reserving your table in advance to avoid disappointment.

Table reservations are essential. To book your dining experience or enquire about a special celebration, please call +353 (0)74 9136208 or email enquiries@arnoldshotel.com.

We look forward to welcoming you to Arnolds Hotel, Dunfanaghy, Donegal.
