There are plenty of places to eat on the islands. Well on Inis Mor and Inis Oirr anyway. And some good pubs on both too. Only difference is that there are guards on Inis Mor so they operate the same pub opening hours as on the mainland. No guards on Inis Oirr although I do think they pop up there sometimes on busy weekends. Inis Meain the middle island is very quiet compared to the other two.
thanks GBB, Can you get over and back on day trips to one/any of the islands?

You can day trip it alright but you'd be kinda rushing around a bit. It's probably worth spending a night out there and taking your time. Great spot if you have the weather. Weekends during the Summer are very busy out there.

You can find information on the ferries at www.aranislandferries.com
