Food scene
While Dublin City Centre has some of the best restaurants in the country, I have included a few local spots that are lovely.
PRADO
9 Vernon AvenueNice local restaurant with delicious food and wine
This is a must! Gorgeous local coffee shop beside the beach, there is a beautiful walk down to it and you can get lovely sandwiches. It is busy on the weekends and there can be a queue.
