Octopussy's Seafood Tapas Bar

The name leaves something to be desired, but the food on offer does not. This restaurant is the perfect place to indulge in the seafood fare that is the main focus of Howth. The style is Mediterranean and the produce is sourced from the fishmonger's next door daily. The menu offers both medium and large sized tapas options so you can be sure to choose something to suit your appetite and the range is extensive from crayfish to whitebait to sardines to mussels and some stellar early bird options as well. This is a nice alternative to the usual format of seafood restaurants and is a favourite amongst the locals.
