Henry Street offers the best choice in high street fashion and popular Irish chain stores and is where Arnott's, one of Dublin's best loved department stores, can be found.

North of the river, Henry Street is another pedestrian-friendly zone. As well as oodles of shops from A-Wear to Zara, there are department stores such as Arnotts and nearby favourite Clerys as well as shopping centres, Jervis Street and the Ilac Centre. Take a moment to look up between bargains at The Spire, one of Ireland's newest monuments. It soars to needlepoint on O'Connell Street.
