This isn't continental Europe. Contrary to popular belief restaurants in the Irish capital do not close en masse on Sundays. It's true that almost everywhere serving a tasting menu shuts for a day of rest, but there are countless other options from tapas to steak to the very best of Irish seafood. Here's where to go when you need a serious feed of a Sunday in Dublin city centre (and within walking distance of it)...

City Centre and surrounds
Table 45, Hogan Place
Chilean tapas are served six nights a week at Table 45, and Sunday is one of them. Go for the Empanadas, stay for the Lomo Saltado, and don't leave without trying a Pisco Sour. Read our once over here.

Coppinger & Row Wines, Coppinger Row
Coppinger and sister wine bar next door Row Wines are both open on Sunday night, for prime city centre dining. The former is your best bet for a traditional three course meal; the latter if you want small plates and picky bits. Both have great outdoor seating on Coppinger Row and lots of lovely things to drink too.

Pickle, Camden Street
Sunil Ghai's Indian destination Pickle is continuously booked out at weekends, but you might get lucky on Sunday. The goat keema pao is the one, but you can't put a foot far wrong in here. There's a €90 tasting menu available on request, and a €120 slow-braised leg of lamb to feed 3-4 if you're going all out (needs to be ordered 48 hours in advance).
