Set on the shores of Lough Swilly, The Railway Tavern in Fahan, County Donegal blends rich railway heritage with cosy fires and hearty Irish cooking from its signature firebox grill.
The Railway Tavern is housed in the former refreshment rooms of Fahan Station on the old Derry to Buncrana railway line, a space that preserves the spirit of the Londonderry & Lough Swilly Railway Company. Since opening its doors in 1864, the station's refreshment rooms and bar have welcomed locals and visitors alike.
Railway artefacts and vintage memorabilia bring the building’s past to life, creating a warm, nostalgic setting where every visit feels connected to generations of travellers who passed through before.
