Whiskey Brand

Doherty Irish Whiskey - a 5-year and 12-year single malt distilled on the Donegal coast. Smoky, warm, and made without compromise.

Our Story

Rooted in Donegal,
shaped by the sea

For over 100 years, McGrory's has welcomed people to the edge of Inishowen with good food, great music, and pint poured with care. Today, Doherty Hospitality carries that same spirit across three coastal venues - McGrory's, The Eagle, and The Queens.

From Culdaff to Glasthule and Dalkey, our story is a simple one. Warm welcomes, honest hospitality, and places people return to time and again. The menus change with the seasons. The faces behind the bar change over the years. The feeling never does.

"We never set out to build a group. We set out to build places you would want to come back to."

Our Venues

Places worth
seeking out

Whether you are pulling up a stool in Glasthule, catching a session in Culdaff, or sitting down to dinner in Dalkey, every Doherty venue is a place worth being. Three venues, each its own world - shaped by its coast, its community, and the people who call it their local.

at your table

McGrory's has been welcoming people to the northwest since 1924. Beside Malin Head and the Wild Atlantic Way, it serves the freshest Donegal seafood, hosts legendary live sessions, and offers boutique rooms overlooking Culdaff Beach. This is the kind of place that makes the drive worth it.

Dublin

The soul of the village,
in the city

The Queens has stood on Castle Street in Dalkey since 1745. The Eagle has been the heart of Glasthule for years. Two south Dublin icons, reimagined under Doherty Hospitality - together they bring the warmth and character of true Irish hospitality to the Dublin coastline.

The spirit of Donegal
in a bottle

Born from the rugged coastline of County Donegal, every bottle carries the weight of its landscape - the Atlantic winds, the unhurried seasons, and a family that has never once mistaken speed for quality.

Doherty Irish Whiskey’s 5 Year Old Blend and 12 Year Old Single Grain are crafted with patience and character. Matured in hand-selected bourbon and sherry casks, each bottle is shaped by time alone - smoky, rich, no fillers and no shortcuts.

Named with intention. Made without compromise.
