The food and waiting staff were excellent. However our experience was totally ruined by a member of stash accusing us of not paying our bar bill out on street. Thank goodness I could prove we had. I was so embarrassed and pur experience was tainted

The Bishops Gate is one of many in the enchanting old city walls in Derry. The walls are just the most magnificent way to walk around the old town. The Bishops Gate is close to the likes of St Columbs Cathedral and St Augustine's. There are numerous information plaques dotted around such as here at the Bishops Gate and there are fine views of the city from above the arch.

Decided to have dinner with the wife here and have to say the food was really tasty. The service was really good too although the only blemish would be it took 45 minutes for our meal and when we received our protein we still had to wait a few minutes for our sides to arrive. All in all though a pleasent night and would definitely be back.

How amazing to see and walk on the old city walls as they were centuries ago. How many feet and how much history was there before mine?

Stayed at the Bishops Gate hotel so naturally I had to investigate the bishops gate. Some great history here, take the time to explore outside the walls of Bishops gate and see the wall placards and read the interesting history of this part of town

Well, Bishop Gate, I'm conflicted. Anything dating from 1789 is well worth a visit, but its a mess. The arch is rounded, and I do like a good rounded Romanesque arch, but above is a great square block with brutal cornicing. The river-god carved face at the apex of the arch is topped with a great overhang block just above like a guillotine. The two faces either side jut out and break the line of the arch where a pleasing semicircle should be. Little square arches off on either side let pedestrians through. Rounded ones would have looked so much better, complimenting the main passage, but these clash with it stylistically. its as if chunks of different structures have been piled up together.
I do like the steps here which let you get up onto the circuit of the town walls. Otherwise its just an interesting mess.

This place looks so amazing, had our final course of the Food Tour here and a wee glass of Prosecco. The surroundings in the hotel are so nice......

I like history and I loved walking along the old walls of the city of Derry. I did it with a local guide and what a pleasure to tour the city with a knowledgeable guide. Derry's city walls are the only in Ireland that are intact.
