McCafferty’s Traditional Irish Bar first opened its doors in the heart of Donegal Town, at The Diamond, in 2017. What began as a single location quickly grew, with three additional bars opening just a year later in 2018. Two of these expanded across the Irish Sea to the UK, bringing the spirit of Ireland to North Harrow and Epsom. Closer to home, our third location of the year opened in Letterkenny, Co. Donegal — cementing our commitment to both our local roots and international ambitions.
Each McCafferty’s venue is crafted with care to reflect the charm and warmth of a traditional Irish pub. With a welcoming atmosphere and authentic Irish décor, our bars have become beloved gathering spots for locals and tourists alike. We pride ourselves on offering live Irish music weekly, creating the perfect backdrop for unforgettable nights out.
