Neighbourhood gem
Good for special occasions

Whether it is for food, drinks or a good night's sleep, the Driftwood is a place for you to come and unwind in a fun & relaxed, family friendly environment!

The bar & cafe area is the perfect place for some light food or to relax and have a drink, with gorgeous views over Sligo Bay & Oyster Island. Paudie's pitmaster background has played a big influence on The Driftwood Smokehouse Restaurant, with smoked meats and seafood playing a central part of the menu, which have been slow cooked in the smoker for up to 15 hours, to give a gorgeous flavour & tender texture.

Most Enjoyable Trip to the Always Charming Maritime Village of Rosses Point, to a Restaurant with Style and Charm and in my case something different and delicious! The in house smoker delivered a delightful flavour to a starter of Sea Bass followed by Beef Cheek. The Dessert wasn’t too ordinary either.. Nice Service and value for Money for the standards achieved. Recommend.
