4. Ely

Ireland’s oldest wine bar, located within beautifully restored  wine vaults dating back to 1821 , is not necessarily where you would think to take children. However, this venue is surprisingly welcome to younger customers, and well worth a visit for any wine-loving parents! The interiors are stunning and the food is equally impressive – the family owner’s organic farm provides all of the meat used in each delicious dish.

The “little people” menu serves equally top quality fare such as Boyne Valley beef cheek croquettes, and half portions of selected a la carte dishes. A great place for a treat, and to introduce slightly older children to refined dining.
