Wander Phibsborough, a genuine north-side Dublin neighbourhood far from the tourist trail. Browse local shops and bakeries along the main road, then settle into a neighbourhood café or traditional pub.
Full description
Phibsborough is a lived-in north Dublin neighbourhood centred on a busy main road of pubs, bakeries, cafés and small independent shops. It has a strongly local character, with a mix of long-standing family businesses and newer coffee spots, and sits close to Dalymount Park and the Royal Canal.
There are few formal sights, so the appeal is in the everyday atmosphere and the chance to see a part of Dublin that most visitors skip. It suits solo travellers who like to wander without an agenda.
