On a sunny day, this is the perfect place for a seafood meal. Mussels, seafood tacos, calamari with chorizo, a beef burger, and oysters were all perfect after a hike. The service was very friendly and even managed to chase down dine-in customers (successfully).

Enjoyed midweek midday lunch, casual, popular, fun decor inside and good food cooked fresh, extensive menu including a few
non-fish options too.

A fish and chips that does the trick! I really enjoyed the daily menu which was very generous and good value for money! Note that the service charge is 10%.
Molto buona la chowder soup della casa, servita con uno squisito pane nero. Deludenti le seppie al sugo con bacon, sinceramente da ripensare. Fish and Chips dignitoso, anche se le patatine erano un po' mollicce.

After a stunning cliff boat tour in Howth, we decided to grab a bite nearby â even though we usually avoid heavily touristic spots when it comes to dining. But this time, we were pleasantly surprised.
The restaurant delivered on all fronts: fresh, flavorful dishes, a welcoming team, and a clean, open kitchen that confidently showcases transparency and quality. Itâs always a good sign when you can watch your food being prepared, and here, it added to the overall sense of trust and care.
Every dish we tried was delicious and thoughtfully plated. Prices were on the higher end of the spectrum, but given the location and the quality, absolutely justified.
A great choice if youâre in Howth and looking for a good meal with honest cooking and a relaxed vibe â touristy setting or not.
