    Located alongside a number of fishmongers and seafood restaurants on Howth's West Pier, Wrights provides a market-like atmosphere in which to pick up some fresh fish. They have every type of fish, prawn, lobster, mussel you could ever want, and even have live lobsters in a tank, waiting for the chop. As my friend so delicately put it, 'the poor lobsters are on death row!' At least we know they're fresh. This place is not for the die-hard animal rights advocate or the squeamish vegetarian, but the fish is fresh and of good quality. There is a deli section here where you can obtain all sorts to complement your fish, including wine, lime juice, desserts and a large selection of condiments. A one stop fish shop!

    I'm not a fish connoisseur but my boyfriend's father is and he swears that Wrights of Howth is the best fishmonger. There are plenty of fish markets to choose from on this pier, but he always comes to this one first. He claims that the selection and quality is superior to other places of its kind. I like this place because there's plenty of action inside. Business is good here. I have never been the only customer in the shop. The fish are wonderfully displayed in ice fridges and look delicious even raw. This shop also sells great seafood: langoustines, oysters, prawns, lobsters and clams.

    Some of the best fish and chips that were had in Ireland was from here!…read more Crispy, not too oily, and so tasty! The portion was nice too. The service was a bit slow and there is no seating indoors but there is a nice park across the street. Just watch for the birds; they will try to steal your food!

    This busy takeout place near the Howth waterfront specializes in fried fish. Three kinds were…read moreavailable that day: cod, haddock, and hake. I don't know if I could tell these apart except from the shape so I asked which was the most popular and was told cod. So I ordered the cod fish & chips and a side of mushy peas. I ordered at the counter and waited about 5 minutes for my number to be called then took the box outside to eat on the lawn near the water, keeping a careful watch on the aggressive seagulls. The portion was good, the fish was fresh like just off the boat, the batter light and mildly seasoned, and no disagreeable flavors from the frying oil. Unfortunately the batter was inconsistent: thin and crunchy in places, thicker and soggy in others. The fries were just ok, starchy. So overall only average. I had to try mushy peas again, just my second time. They tasted and looked just like they sound: mashed up green peas. No mint flavoring added this time. Fine for what they were, but I just don't get it. I think I prefer coleslaw with my fish&chips but I don't think it's offered here. Perhaps coleslaw is an American thing? So only average overall. But I'd consider returning if I wanted a quick takeout lunch as the other restaurants in the area were more formal sit-down places.
