    Hi all,

    looking for recommendations on breakfast spots near The Marker / Grand Canal Dock.

    Also any good bars near there that would have a bit of life on a Monday night?

    All suggestions welcome,

    gh.

    Herb Street, right on the canal, does an unreal breakfast.

    Herbstreet for breakfast - one of the best in Dublin in my opinion (a bit pricey though).
    HQ and Ocean Bar for drinks - both were busy enough last night, but that may have been related to the lovely weather we had.

    The Ocean Bar has been closed for around 2 years and is now a sea food restaurant.

    Herbstreet is great .

    All the bars around Grand Canal are brutal. You're better off heading back towards town.

    H is a pretty decent spot as is HQ, also try the marker bar.


    Have you been?

    I live in the area. They're not really proper pubs.

    Herbstreet is well overpriced.

    Apologies, it's now called Mourne Seafood bar - it's been pretty busy outside every evening this week
