For fish and chips. They have a very small menu (usually two or three mains) based on what they catch over night (it is a fisherman shop), so you could hardly find fresher and better quality (they do gluten free on demand).

This is where the vikings who settled Dublin arrived first. The park behind the castle used to be the pond they docked. You can see that the castle has several parts that comes from different time periods, as over time, extensions were built in their architectural styles. I would not recommend the visit of the Castle but you are free to walk around it.
