A wonderful choice of first-class restaurants and pubs which offer a fine dining experience to suit different tastes and budgets awaits the visitor to beautiful Lough Derg and its hinterland.
Great food and cuisine are among the delights of holidaying on or near the impressive waterway and the mighty River Shannon on which it is located.
In many of the villages, towns and riverside centres dotted along the region you will find great fare, prepared by talented chefs and served with style and enthusiasm by friendly staff.
Establishments range from award-winning restaurants and dining outlets serving quality local produce to homely pubs that offer satisfying meals and snacks.
Whether you are coming off the lake from some form of water-based pursuit or fresh from relaxing or activity on land, Lough Derg’s restaurants and pubs bid you welcome. You are assured of great variety and great hospitality.
There are far too many restaurants, pubs and other dining establishments scattered throughout the five counties bordering the lake and its River Shannon hinterland for to specifically mention each one on this website.
But just to whet your interest (and appetite!), the following is just a random selection comprising a possible Gourmet Food Trail you might like to dip into here and there as you journey on your travels and explore the lake’s pleasures.
