We were told they had great fish and chips and each day its prepared fresh with the catch of the day which just so happened to be haddock. It came with peas and tartar sauce and French fries and a lemon wedge. The fish was soooo tasty and incredibly tender, the batter on the fish was very very mild and could have used some seasoning. I also appreciated the fact that a waiter was able to adjust tables to seat our large party and everyone that waited on us was very kind. It's a good spot and if you're in the area like we were I recommend ! The location is also nice and I love how it's decked out with a lot of old and local bar and brewery signage.

Just back from Ireland, and Yelp suggested I post a review. I've selected my favorite tavern, The…read moreAbbey. Only got there once, but of the many, many bars I stumbled out of on this trip, I recall this as the one I'd most want to see again. The photos cannot do it justice. It's in Houth, a gorgeous coastal village just a short train ride from Dublin. The exterior photo is actually the rear entrance, while the street entrance is down the stairs. Like a secret path to a private lair. Fantastic bar! Stone and ancient wood floors. Built in 1042, I'm told. 24 taps, and all the Irish whiskey there is. A few of the better bottles showed prices by the glass, €15 and up. Sorely tempted to try one, but we had a long day ahead. Normally, an $18 glass of whiskey is just fine with me, but as I had moderated my intake, I had found myself less able to drink all day. Plus, it was about 10 am. Great service from a young bartender, who assured me NO hour was too early to drink in Ireland. Pro tip: Fly into Dublin Airport, skip that town, and head to Houth. Seafood galore, and The Abbey. Bonus review: Five minutes away is Ann's Ice Cream just off the Irish Sea. Worth it for the view. My child, a very particular eater, just loved a huge waffle cone with "Double Cream Vanilla" which is apparently quite tasty. Most notable for the "No Toilet's" door. Grammar be damned.

We were in Howth for a few days and really only checked out Abbey Tavern because my husband and his…read morefriends like to go to a place by the same name in Denver. It luckily turned out to be a great decision! They still had some holiday lights glowing inside so it felt nice and cosy. The bartender/server was a very nice and attentive young man. When my husband and I both ordered the Abbey Tavern Howth Chowder, the server ensured us that it would be the best chowder in Howth. He was right! Really delicious and hearty with fresh, local seafood! Of course, I had a Guinness to wash it all down. We hope to get back there again someday.

Even though the restaurant was busy, we were seated pretty quickly upstairs in a cozy dining room with a beautiful view. The service was friendly and efficient, and our food arrived surprisingly fast. Everything we ordered was absolutely delicious. The seafood chowder was rich, flavorful, and definitely a must-try. The fish and chips portion was generous enough to share, with perfectly crispy fish and fresh fries. The oysters were incredibly fresh, sweet, and tasted straight from the sea. Overall, a fantastic dining experience with great food, quick service, and a warm atmosphere. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area.

Pornstar martinis (5/5) were very good and worth the deal. House salad (5/5) had cucumbers, carrots, onion, and a pesto-based dressing that was very tasty.

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.
