Is Howth Cliff Walk Day-Trip worth it for foodies?
DependsFor food
Howth Cliff Walk Day-Trip offers some food & drink, but not enough to make it the reason to go.
An easy, cheap escape from the city — a bracing cliff walk over heather and sea, ending with fish and chips on the pier. The honest catch: the path is exposed and can be muddy or wind-battered in poor weather, and on sunny weekends the village and DART get genuinely packed.
