Skippers is a wonderful seafood restaurant run by a local family which prides itself on the quality - and quantity - of its seafood dishes.
It also is a very friendly place, great fun, lovely family. It also has a wide range of other dishes - including a great children's menu - children are very welcome.
Burtonport is a fishing village which is the gateway to Arranmore, a wonderful island to vist, and a myriad of other islands. From Skippers, there are great walks, sea trips, plus musical evenings.

There is a hotel where the food is disgracefully bad (frozen processed factory food masquerading as home-cooked, and we also got food-poisoning ); and the cafe at the harbour isn't much better.
On a positive note, the islanders are a very friendly bunch, and the scenery is lovely.
