A traditional family run pub, which has been trading in the heart of Letterkenny’s main street since the 19th century, McGinley’s rightfully boasts that – like most of the best wines or whiskeys – it only gets better with age. We couldn’t agree more. The beautiful old style décor in the pub, centred on a roaring open fire and props and trinkets from years gone by, help create a truly unique ambience. Beyond that, McGinley’s has a well–earned reputation for live music. The bar is one of the best places in Donegal to catch a trad session (Tuesdays and Wednesdays, if you’re feeling up for it), while it’s also become a haven for rock, folk and blues fans, with local groups and cover bands providing the live soundtrack to your Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights.
