Johnnie Fox's
Ireland's highest-altitude pub is about 45 minutes from Dublin in the Wicklow Mountains. Some people find it kitsch and overdone, but it's actually an authentic old place full of bric-a-brac, gnarled benches, sawdust floors and crackling open fires. The fabulous (but pricey) seafood and nightly Irish music are another draw.

Ocean
Once the docks are redeveloped, Ocean will have one of the best views in town (hence the floor to ceiling windows). The problem is, it’s already charging for the view while it – and the food – aren’t quite there yet. Standards include oysters, crab salad and a langoustine (lobster) cocktail, but portions are small and the convoluted cooking unreliable. That said, there’s a nice terrace, should the sun stick its head out.

Mermaid Café
The largely seafood-serving Mermaid is one of the city's favourite restaurants, as much for the superb cuisine as for the friendly and informal atmosphere. The menu is loaded with inventive ingredient-led organic food, such as roast monkfish tail with sweet potato and chorizo mash and roast poussin with cassava chips, lentils and shallots. But what makes this place that little bit extra special is the atmosphere, fostered as much by the excellent staff as by little touches like free coffee refills at brunch. Call now and make a booking.

Oar House
A feast-o-fish is what the menu is all about at this newish restaurant – particularly the locally caught variety. Par for the course in a fishing village, but this place stands out both for the way the fish is prepared and because you can get everything on the menu in smaller, tapas-style portions as well as mains.

Seafood Shops
If you want to buy food and prepare it yourself, Howth has fine seafood that you can buy fresh from the string of shops on West Pier.
