As with any large city you can find any type of cuisine your heart desires in Dublin. There are restaurants to suit every budget with almost all restaurants offering an 'early bird' menu at a reduced price to diners between 17:00 and 19:00 (or sometimes even later). The dining scene in Dublin is largely informal but for more popular restaurants at weekends it is always best to book in advance.

Quirky is good and here you get plenty of quirk for you buck! Menus come in old books, the bill comes in a maths set with a few sweets thrown in. The cutlery used to be all vintage but customers kept taking souvenirs so they had to run an amnesty to try and get it back. Now there is less vintage cutlery but that does not detract from the charm.

Generations of fruit and vegetable stall holders have plied their trade on this street, the oldest food market in Dublin. More recent additions to the street include shops supplying the emigrant community from around the world. This has brought a new vibrancy to the area. If a 'chinatown' were to develop in Dublin it would surly start here.

The Blue Bus is a pizzeria which opens from Thursdays to Sundays from 6 pm till closing time of the bar. The price is acceptable and sometimes they have fun deals like: “if your name is Pedro, you will receive a free pizza today”. And if you’re at it you can rent a water pipe for smoking while having dinner, yes, in a bus.

It's your chance to get into one of the Georgian buildings Dublin is known for, it's been completely modernized with not many original features evident but will give you an idea of the scale and grandeur of this era. Take the lift to the 5th floor and enjoy the views.

Its location overlooking the river and famous Ha'penny bridge is hard to beat but add to this the charm of the book shop down stairs and you are on to a winner. If you are too early for dinner browse the bookshop and maybe even have a coffee in the window table as you wait.

this bar is well away from the main tourist drag on Wexford street which along with the adjoining Camden street is full of great places to eat, drink and meet like minded locals. The bar has a modern relaxed atmosphere and knowledgeable staff to guide you through the many beers on offer.

It is head and shoulders above some many of the nearby food offerings this tourist heavy part of the city has to offer. Check out their selection of different oysters and treat yourself to a glass of wine or something sparkling to accompany you meal.

The extremely nattily dressed barmen will shake you up a cocktail from the extensive menu. The ground floor bar is small but there are larger, equally quirky lounges on the first and second floors. The decor is definitely interesting with plenty of spooky portraits gazing down on you from the walls!

You can expect a huge covered and heated outdoor smoking area upstairs. Three bars, one downstairs, one in the loft and one in the smoking area. It's best to head here from Thursday to Saturday, but if you are looking for a quite drink earlier in the week it's still a great spot.
