09/11/2025: Oar House is where we ate in Howth. Close to the DART station and on the pier next to the harbor, we tried the famous Oar House Fish 'N' Chips and the crispy calamari. You can choose between a small or large portion. The calamari was delicious, and the fish and chips were good too, but we found the batter a bit heavy. It wasn't because it was greasy that it tasted good; it was because we weren't used to it. We ate the last piece with the sauces and without the batter, which we set aside. They had a large menu, and it was hard to choose. The place was obviously decorated with nautical motifs, and they even brought a bottle of water to the table without us asking, but they explained that it was tap water and free. The service was very friendly throughout, and the gratuity is included on the bill under the name "Gratuity."
