Second Edition

Second Edition is a casual cafe that has settled comfortably into the roadside scene of Dunfanaghy, just a short drive from Letterkenny. Situated in a large carpark with ample parking space for cars and campervans alike, it caters well to folk on the move or locals looking for a simple, relaxed coffee stop.

Their coffee tends to draw appreciative nods, especially from those who favour dairy-free or plant-based milks — a thoughtful touch that shows attention to varied tastes. Visitors often arrive for its breakfast baps, which come highly recommended for their generous, fresh fillings; it’s easy to see why some linger a little longer so they don’t have to rush finishing their meal.

Inside and out, the atmosphere is welcoming without fuss. Children find plenty to occupy themselves here, making it a practical choice for families wanting a brief break while exploring the area. The cafe also offers a “leave a book, take a book” rack, adding a quiet, community-minded layer to the experience that encourages a slower pace amidst the casual buzz.

While Second Edition runs mainly as a grab-and-go or light sit-down spot, the friendliness of the staff—who also seem genuinely connected with the local community and eager to share tips about the surroundings—makes it feel more like a small local hub than just a quick coffee stop.

Best times to visit align with typical breakfast or late morning hours, when the place hums quietly with locals and travelers alike, all drawn by the dependable coffee and satisfying morning bites. Whether you’re passing through Donegal or settling in for a longer day of adventuring nearby, this spot fits neatly as a comforting first or second stop.
