Any of the touristy areas will likely have seats out the front so there’d be no issue there
Other places will have smoking areas out the back, which often double as eating areas in good weather, & again there should be no issue but I’d always ask before I bring my girls in

Cracking trip around parts of both bits of the island of Ireland. Guinness, whisky, whiskey, even the odd red wine. New tyre fitted by a fantastic small motorcycle garage owner due to an irepairable puncture. If I lived there he would get all my bike work.
Great food, hotels and roads.
We must have missed all the drunk, phone using, unaccompanied learner drivers etc.
Leenane hotel was great as was the waterfront hotel in Dungloe. Even had a night out in Belfast great craic every night.
Hope my next trip to the Alps next month is as good.
Is that a burger van at Malin Head 
. Was last there in February. Thankfully in the car as it was blowing a hooley and about 5 centigrade with intermittent sideways rain.. Not a soul about mind

Not a burger van. A great coffee and cake van. Lovely young lady selling her cakes, we didn’t eat much of it honestIs that a burger van at Malin Head
️. Strange weather on the day to Leenane. I was leading and stayed dry. The lads only about 10 minutes behind got wet. Well I did get wet but inside 
whilst I waited for them to check in.
I wasn’t sure at first but persevered and after two or three it was pretty good.I like the look of that Black Irish whiskey spirit and stout, I'll keep an eye out for that.
i am there at least once a year and got a chance to take my lid off this year!! (blow the head off you).Is that a burger van at Malin Head

Daffy,

Yip don't think I've ever been up there that it wasn't windy. Should have a ruddy great wind turbine on it
Thanks Barry,
It looks like you’re in the province, would your comments apply south of the border as well?
Cheers for taking the trouble to reply,
John.
The official name of the Country comprised of the 26 counties that form a Republic is "Ireland". It is also sometimes referred to as the Republic of Ireland. There is no Country called Southern Ireland.
As the island is also called "Ireland" the term Republic of Ireland is used to differentiate between Ireland the island and Ireland the country, and between Ireland and "Northern Ireland". Unfortunately for that name, Donegal- in the Republic- has a chunk of land that includes Malin Head, which lies further north than any part of NI. In fact most of Donegal is further north than Belfast. So it's kinda silly saying Southern Ireland goes further north than Northern Ireland. If that wasn't confusing enough, Northern Ireland is part of the province of Ulster but is not actually Ulster. Ulster has 9 counties, 3 of which are in the Republic and 6 of which are in NI. Remember that when you hear "Ulster says NO!" (Well 3 don't...
Do they ever say yes?)
Lastly the term Eire went out of use in 1948 when we became a Republic and left the commonwealth officially (had done so practically in 1921) and is generally taken as a derogatory term when uttered as the name of the country by British people (as in we refuse to recognise your Republic as such a State). Most people are ok with such misquoting but it does grate a bit... if you want to endear yourself to the locals bear it in mind.
Éireann is acceptable only if you are a Gaeilgoir speaking as Gaeilge...
Ireland, Southern Ireland, Northern Ireland, Ulster, Free State, Republic, Eire, Oireland, Éireann...
My head hurts....
The only really important thing to remember is this Island is made of two distinct parts. The part that is Cork, and the part that is Not Cork.
Peace and love.. (except to the fella who thinks we are a Mad Max movie based in Afghanistan...)
Wonderfully put Sir.
Did ye pass through Galway and Sligo Friday afternoon heading northwards?
Very enlightening, thank you.
So it's okay for my Irish passport to call it Éire but it's not okay for me, the passport holder, to call it Éire?
It's a bit of a minefield isn't it?
