Danny Minnie's is a long-established restaurant, the business dating back several generations. Built by the O'Donnell family, it began as a sibín alongside the road, developing to a pub and shop in the early 1900s, known as Rosie's.

In 1963, Danny and Terri modernised the building to a pub and lounge, with local musicians and family performing in sing-songs and sessions.

Re-modernised in 1993 into a restaurant and pub, Danny Minnie's has continued to thrive, building up a discerning clientele of gourmet eaters who enjoy the high-quality cuisine offered by the kitchen.

The restaurant has been awarded many accolades over the past 20 years and continues to develop modern, progressive menus.
