This is the same brand as Pizza Express in the UK. It is a handy one to know if you're traveling with kids. You can also order pizza and pick it up from them as it is about a 10 minute walk from the house or on the way home from the city centre.

One of my favourite restaurants in Dublin. Italian - authentically focusing on cuisine from Puglia. Small, simple, homely basement restaurant. The food and the owners do the talking.

Most famous for it's Francis Bacon art collection and his actual studio which has been reconstructed there. The collection is shared with the national gallery of London so worth checking out the website in advance. Some more modern Irish painters there too such as Bono's good friend Gavin Friday. http://www.hughlane.ie/

Parks & Nature

One of the loveliest parks in Dublin. About a 10 minutes car ride from the house or a 25 minute bike ride. There is a really lovely kids playground there, tennis courts, nice walks and a well known rose garden. There is also a great country market selling home made goods and lots of great organic vegetables on Saturdays.

Howth is a seaside fishing village with lots of nice restaurants to hand. It also has a lovely walk right around the cliffs which really feels like the wilds of nature. It may not be advisable to bring small children on these walks as the trails are narrow and close to the edge without any barrier.

This is a great spot. Always lively and friendly with good music. The initial entrance looks quite traditional but then you go down a few steps into more of an impromptu dance area and there is an outdoor area with a blue bus serving pretty good pizza. A good place to go to meet people and have fun! It is towards the very end of a street known for it's good bars in Dublin that locals frequent which is Camden Street/Wexford Street area.

It's the closest bar to the house but I've never been! It's usually only busy on concert nights and it looks fairly lively then. I thought I'd mention it as it's the closest to the house.
