From East Pier Howth on board M.V.Adam Patricia

Ivans Oyster Bar and Grill, located on the West Pier of picturesque Howth Harbour, uniquely brings together the very freshest seafood with the highest quality organic meats and poultry. Its interiors combine natural wood and tile finishes with plenty of light, airy views over the bustling harbour.

Beshoff's the Market and Ivans Oyster Bar and Grill are just the latest development in Beshoff's exciting transition from traditional fishmonger to modern restaurateur and retailer of high quality food. At Beshoff's the Market, you'll find Dublin's largest and best assortment of quality fresh seafood as well as an extensive selection of fresh organic fruits and vegetables. The Market's in-house café, patisserie, and seafood wet bar - the only one of its kind in Dublin - turn food shopping into a culinary delight.

Established in 1971, Aidan and Joan MacManus have earned an international reputation for fresh seafood in their harbour-side restaurant in the picturesque fishing village of Howth. However, we are still only 20 minutes from the bustle of Dublin City and Dublin Airport. In 1999, we extensively rebuilt our old Harbour Master's house, relocating the restaurant to the first floor with panoramic sea-views, and adding eight guest bedrooms. All the bedrooms, named after Lighthouses, are stunningly located overlooking Balscadden Bay.

We are named after King Sitric II, Norse King of Dublin in the 11th Century who had a close association with Howth and was son in law of the famous Irish King, Brian Boru.

A deft flick of the wrist could launch a fish from Dublin Bay into a waiting pan in Aidan MacManus' kitchen. As it is, the ocean's finest tends to travel the 400 yards from Howth Pier in a rather more sedate fashion since only the pick of the morning's catch passes muster in this renowned fish restaurant. We have nurtured a network of trusty suppliers who can rustle up everything from locally caught lobster and crab to organically grown vegetables. Most of our fish is landed here in Howth and is sourced for us by Oceanpath, Nicky's Plaice and Beshoffs to our specifications. Incidentally, our Smoked Salmon comes from the last traditional smoking kiln in Howth, in Nicky's Plaice, and smoked to order for us by Nicky & Martin McLoughlin. (Well worth a visit – all are welcome). Lobster and crab come from Balscadden Bay, only a stone's throw from our front door, where our friend John Sheridan fishes exclusively for us. Other shellfish, such as Oysters, Mussels, Clams etc come from approved beds in various locations, according to season. Where we can, we source our vegetables from local organic growers. Similarly, our cheese-board features only Irish Farmhouse cheeses. Wild Game in Winter is also a favourite.

La Cucina Restaurant occupies the first floor where the very best of authentic Italian cuisine is the speciality of the house. Tasty pasta dishes, a great choice of pizzas, and home-baked breads, all complemented by Italian wines of course, are the special features of this intimate eatery. Not surprisingly, it has proven popular for private parties and functions as well.
