A strong Irish and European spread makes Drumcondra feel genuinely local rather than tourist-facing. The stretch along Drumcondra Road has become a reliable destination for unhurried meals at moderate prices, with a surprising range of Asian options sitting alongside the classic pub food and European plates.
