  • 1. Atrium

    Southside

    It's about more than the clothes at this self-styled concept shop, which specializes in contemporary Irish designers including Electronic Sheep and Emma Manely. You can also pick up the newest trends in local jewelry, bags, and scarves.

    A true original with his Celtic modern jewelry, Barry Doyle is a master who allows you to watch him at work in his adjoining studio as he fashions beautiful wedding rings and his lovely Lilac Collection baubles. The store was chosen as one of the top 50 shops in Ireland by Irish Times readers.

  • 5. Hodges Figgis

    Southside

    Dublin's leading independent bookstore, Hodges Figgis stocks 1½ million books on three floors. Once considered Ireland's oldest, its independent claim is a bit bogus, as a giant chain bought it some years ago. That noted, it has the stock, staff, look, and even aroma of an independent bookstore, and might even still please James Joyce (who alludes to it in his Ulysses).
