The Banks Restaurant & Accommodation
Review
The Banks is exactly the kind of accommodation I enjoy recommending to readers: well located, warmly run and clearly cared for. Set right in the heart of Strabane, it provides an excellent base for exploring Derry, County Tyrone and, just a short drive away, the beautiful landscapes of Donegal. I always choose accommodation carefully for my books because, more than anywhere else, it becomes your home during a visit. The Breslin family understand that responsibility perfectly. Highly regarded throughout the area, they have created a welcoming business built around quality, comfort and genuine hospitality. That attention to detail is evident in the well-presented bedrooms and continues downstairs into the restaurant, where the same standards shine through. The Banks offers location, character and reassuring family-run warmth.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT
The Banks Restaurant has become one of the regions dependable places to eat. Family owned by the Breslins, this award-winning restaurant was built around a simple principle: bring together the best people, the best local produce and genuine hospitality. That philosophy is evident in the kitchen, where an experienced head chef and seasoned team understand that quality will always matter more than quantity. Strong relationships with trusted suppliers ensure ingredients arrive with freshness, provenance and flavour at their heart. Out front, the welcome is equally assured, with a friendly team delivering attentive service without ever becoming overbearing. Add in the luxurious bedrooms upstairs, and The Banks becomes far more than a restaurant; it is a polished Strabane destination for dining, staying and enjoying proper local hospitality.

Opened in 1959, Lifford Greyhound Stadium remains Donegal’s sole track and a cracking night out and that’s a fact. The modern complex hums with anticipation as the hare spins and the traps lift, while three lively bars keep glasses clinking between races. Settle into The Trackside
