I think Crabby Jo's is within Wrights of Howth? Or the names are interchangeable? I walked by a few…read moretimes trying to find Crabby Jo's until I gave up, but I'm happy to report I still ended up eating, and still had a nice experience lol. I'd definitely recommend as a low-key lunch spot. I stopped in for a super early lunch after a boat ride (It was 11:40ish) and was happy to see the dining area was already filling up. Some folks were ordering coffee, and others were skipping to lunch like me. I went with the crab burger and this thing was massive. I swapped regular fries for sweet potato fries for an extra few $$$. The portion size and quality ingredients = definitely worth the price. Once you leave the restaurant, you can walk through to the gift shop. I ended up buying quite a few trinkets for friends and family. It was one of the more impressive gift shops that I had seen while on my trip for sure! And they also have a fresh seafood selection on display. A little bit of everything!

He told us all the options and have great recommendations - we ended up with the flamed options and the flavors were so amazing. Highly, highly recommend. Loved it!

We…read moreboth had the evening specials, one was a pan fried sole, and the other was a seafood medley. With the seafood medley, we would've enjoyed more crab. With the pan fried sole, the potatoes and vegetables were delicious. We sat on the enclosed patio and there were no barriers for a wheelchair to enter, and different seating areas. To get into the actual restaurant there is about a 3 inch step but once inside there is a wheelchair accessible bathroom on the ground floor. Since I'm ambulatory, I didn't ask to see if they had a ramp, a simple ramp would easily make that 3 inch step doable for a chair. we didn't have the calamari, but the table next to us did and it looked delicious, if we were to go back, we would probably get the calamari and fish and chips.

They have the best oysters! The plan for the day was to drive to Howth and explore the town. But…read moreheavy rains and wind ruined those plans. Since we were on this side of the town, we decided to make the most of it and look for a meal of seafood. I had Octopussy's Tapas bookmarked when researching for the trip, so we decided to stop in for lunch. It was a Thursday at around 1:30, and the restaurant was almost full. It's a very small restaurant and it's mostly high top tables with bar stools, so it wasn't exactly looking baby-friendly, since had our 8-month old and a stroller with us. Luckily, they have a small back room (literally a room that can probably seat 4-6 people) that was available, and they seat us back there. It was nice and cozy, and cute - decorated like you were on a ship. Here is what we ordered: -Carlingford Oysters (served in the shell with fresh lemon) - these oysters were everything! They were big, shucked properly, and tasted super fresh. It didn't need anything but the lemon but they did recommend us trying their housemade hot sauce. We did and we loved it, and ended up buying a bottle to take home. We also ended up ordering some more oysters for dessert (lol) -Seafood Chowder (squid, mussels, smoked coley, & prawns served with homemade brown bread) - this was full of seafood. It is heavy though since chowder is cream-based so I would recommend sharing this, as opposed to ordering one on your own. The brown bread was also very nice -Seafood Paella (paella rice, chorizo, mussels, gambas, squid rings, and smoked coley) - another dish filled with seafood. They don't skimp out here! I could have done without the squid rings (they tasted rubber-bandy, like they're from frozen), and the smoked coley. I'm not a huge fan of smoked foods. I didn't really taste it in the chowder - maybe the cream covered it up, but I was able to taste it more in the paella -Whiskey Scallops (cooked in whiskey butter) - very rich but the scallops were good. You definitely want to dip some of the brown bread in this sauce There were so many other dishes we wanted to try but we had to stop ourselves from ordering too much for two people. Overall, it was a great meal and at these prices for seafood?! You really can't beat it.

This busy takeout place near the Howth waterfront specializes in fried fish. Three kinds were…read moreavailable that day: cod, haddock, and hake. I don't know if I could tell these apart except from the shape so I asked which was the most popular and was told cod. So I ordered the cod fish & chips and a side of mushy peas. I ordered at the counter and waited about 5 minutes for my number to be called then took the box outside to eat on the lawn near the water, keeping a careful watch on the aggressive seagulls. The portion was good, the fish was fresh like just off the boat, the batter light and mildly seasoned, and no disagreeable flavors from the frying oil. Unfortunately the batter was inconsistent: thin and crunchy in places, thicker and soggy in others. The fries were just ok, starchy. So overall only average. I had to try mushy peas again, just my second time. They tasted and looked just like they sound: mashed up green peas. No mint flavoring added this time. Fine for what they were, but I just don't get it. I think I prefer coleslaw with my fish&chips but I don't think it's offered here. Perhaps coleslaw is an American thing? So only average overall. But I'd consider returning if I wanted a quick takeout lunch as the other restaurants in the area were more formal sit-down places.

Atmosphere: We arrived around 1:30pm on a Saturday to a busy restaurant with one table left. Make a reservation if you can! Drinks: I had a local blond ale that was very hoppy but paired very well with my fish and chips. E also had a bottle of Prosecco for the table that were great with our oysters. Food: wow. These were the best fish and chips I've ever had and I've had them all. My friend got the open face fish pie which is really more like a fish chowder with mashed potatoes. It was to die for. The flavor was spot on. If you're looking for a place to eat I'm Howth, which let's be honest there's not much else to do, Deep is the only place to go. You can thank me later.
