Dublin’s south side is an increasingly good place to be as a creative, with a tight-knit design community that is incredibly welcoming. The streets are in a constant state of flux, with new restaurants and shops joining the classic historic charm that the city is steeped in. There’s nothing better than spending a Sunday wandering around the myriad of book stores before retiring to a cosy pub for the evening.
Labyrinthian shop that sells homewares, cooking equipment, gadgets and other paraphernalia
Repurposed Chinese restaurant that now almost exclusively serves delicious chicken of many varieties
All encompassing fun times emporium, the Bernard Shaw has become a standard for which many others have tried to emulate. A laid back combination of art space, venue and outdoor area, it’s hard to find a spot so well equipped for any occasion. The icing on the cake is the Big Blue Bus, a double-decker bus that sits out back and dishes out delicious, affordable pizzas to have with your drinks. Top stuff.
