La Dolce Vita
You can always settle down with a perfect Italian coffee under the tricoloured awnings outside. Or have a perfect little plate of pasta. But on weekend nights you can fully enjoy the talents of Roberto Pons, who prepares exquisite little dishes that transport you to Tuscany.

Ireland's best cheeses and other foodstuffs are beautifully displayed in the cases at the excellent small food hall housed in very correct former law offices. The wine selection is the best south of Dublin; stock up for picnics.

Chaz Bar
Across from the gentrified waterfront, this throwback pub hides behind a modest green facade. There's good live local music most nights in summer and the owner is a fount of local info.

Bull Ring
Originally a beach where provisions were boated into the city, the Bull Ring became a centre for bull baiting in medieval times: the town's butchers gained their guild charter by providing a bull each year for the sport. The Lone Pikeman statue commemorates the participants in the 1798 Rising, who used the place as an open-air armaments factory.
