BoBo’s Burgers

Great spot to sit and absorb the atmosphere whether you’re in the bar or outside people watching as you munch. They serv lunch from 12 noon – 6pm, 7 days a week and have an evening menu on Sunday to Thursday serving from 6pm-9pm. Why not try their Galway Mussels or a good aul Irish Guinness Stew?

Davy Byrnes

Anybody who is familiar with Dublin pub food will be aware of Davy Byrne’s food reputation, in which seafood and their Gorgonzola Sandwich is a speciality. When you visit the premises on South Anne Street, you will witness the huge trade which is done in fresh salmon, smoked salmon and crab dishes.
