Recommended Restaurants
These are my recommendations for restaurants in the area based on personal experience. There are many other restaurants in Longford and Roscommon that I haven't tried yet, which is a testament to the number and variety of eating out options available.
Regan's Gastropub in Roscommon town is probably our favourite place to eat. Good, varied, reasonably priced menu. Great food, excellent service, relaxing decor and friendly atmosphere make this well worth a visit for lunch or dinner or just a beer or coffee. Free parking in Roscommon is a bonus.

Ballyleague Riverside Park
Ballyleague Riverside Park starts at the entrance gates to Apt 7 and follows the quayside wall to Ballyleague Marina. The walking loop is completed by walking by Waters Edge apartments up to the main road, taking a right turn towards the bridge and back to Flagship Harbour. A leisurely 20 min walk or longer if you explore the marina, the tree library, the tennis courts, picnic area, views of the lake or even stop for liquid refreshment at Rosie's Bar!
