Did not stay in this hotel but was staying in the local area. There is not much around this area, small village with other outlying villages so the Milford Inn Hotel would be the main place to go for a meal out.
Service was very poor, long waits to take order, delay in bringing drinks etc. perhaps that's just the laid back attitude in Donegal, I'm not sure.
But the meal itself was very disappointing, just not particularly good quality all round. I should point out at this stage we ate in the Bar Bistro area not the restaurant but if the restaurant is served by the same chef I wouldn't hold much hope that it would be any better. Due to the lack of kids options in the restaurant we plumped for the bar area.
Lowlights of the meal was a potato skin starter which was terrible, more like a half baked potato strangely with cubes of potato as a topping and a splattering of cheese, one half of a mushroom was the only other topping which was meant to be bacon and mushroom topping. Also a chicken enchilada which was also terrible, it was full of corns, green beans and courgettes with one small piece of chicken stuffed inside – it was clearly a vegetarian enchilada with that one piece of chicken stuffed inside – terrible, really terrible (I checked the menu on leaving and sure enough vegetarian enchilada was on there!). Other meals were just ok, steaks etc but nothing special.
It was the sort of place that none of the staff came near us to ask how things were or if everything was ok – I wonder why! I complained when paying and was told they always feed everything back to the chef, was not offered any money off or to speak to a manager, even after speaking to 2 members of staff, I very limp sorry was all I got.
Anyway rant over, and as I said this was just a visit for a meal but I will never be back, ok any place can have an off night but the lack of care by staff would give me no confidence that the hotel is run that well, would not dream of staying here. Book a nice cottage or B+B instead!
