I somehow managed to skip ahead two pubs in Howth in my postings - the Bloody Stream was two pubs after the Habour Bar, and this is the first of those two.
This is a pub in an ancient building - I'm not going to try judge whether their claim that the pub itself is 16th Century is true or not. If you walk down to the pub from my actual previous pub, you get to do so via a laneway that could be anywhere back to the 1500s anyway.
This pub specialises in food, to such an extent that finding somewhere to sit otherwise on a busy day is near impossible. I did obtain a perch at a table towards the back but rather felt like I was somewhat in the way of what must be the more profitable business.
Going off a single visit on a single, oddly warm/sunny day, this was my least favourite of the pubs in Howth; but none of them were really bad - there's no horror in being worst of a decent bunch.
