This far-flung corner of Ireland is blessed with some great produce, and restaurants that take pride in showcasing it. Patrick and Sean McFadden's charming little café-restaurant right in the centre of Dunfanaghy village is one of them and, with its fresh blue frontage and relaxed seaside feel, it would be hard to resist having a peep inside when passing by.


Small but appealing, it has simple charm - and a reputation for giving freshness and quality at a fair price.


Whether you're having a full meal - some fresh local seafood for lunch, perhaps - or you're just dropping in for a treat from the in-house bakery and a cup of tea or coffee, everything is really tasty.


But it’s not all about the food here - the friendly staff and the buzz are also part of the charm at Starfish, along with the good value offered.
