We’ve suspected it for a while – but now it has been officially confirmed – our accent is Ireland’s favourite!!

The survey was compiled by The Sliced Pan – and Donegal received over 4,000 votes!

Over 40,000 contributed to the poll, and the resounding winner of the survey was Donegal.

We faced stiff competition from Galway – and despite a late surge of votes for Cork we won out in the end.

Describing why Donegal won, The Sliced Pan wrote, “Features a complete inability to speak without sounding like said person is up to some sort of devilment.”

Offaly was voted the worst accent in the entire country!

We always knew it, but it’s official – we’re class!
