N0772 O'Connells

Yet another of the more food oriented pubs of Howth, this one probably has the best views over the harbour from the upstairs bar. I got in here in a lull between two waves of diners and managed to get given a table upstairs without ordering food - had I been ten minutes later I suspect it would have been a bar seat or standing downstairs!

The current incarnation here opened in 2012, after the Pier House pub which had closed down a few years before. PR from the time seemed more focused on the drink options (particularly cocktails) and live music; but with their current position as #2 on Tripadvisor for food in Howth - just behind my previous visit, the Abbey Tavern - food seems to have overtaken that.
