A WALK ALONG WEXFORD STREET AND CAMDEN STREET
Even though Camden street was declared by Time Out Magazine as being one of the coolest streets in the World Wexford Street seamlessly transforms into Camden Street. There’s no jarring landmark or break between them, fostering the sense they’re a single entity so I always consider them to be a single entity when I photograph the area.

Dublin’s Camden Street: A Beacon of Cool in the World’s Eyes
Camden Street, a vibrant hub in Dublin’s heart, has earned a spot among the world’s most happening thoroughfares. Time Out magazine, a renowned authority on global travel and entertainment, has included this Dublin gem in their exclusive list of the “30 Coolest Streets in the World.”
What Makes Camden Street So ‘Cool’?
Camden Street’s charm lies in its eclectic mix of experiences that capture the essence of modern Dublin. Here’s what sets it apart:
Authentic Vibe: While gentrification has touched many Dublin neighbourhoods, Camden Street retains its “no-frills, post-modern grit,” according to Time Out. This down-to-earth, unpretentious energy appeals to locals and visitors alike.
Culinary Delights: Camden Street is a foodie paradise. From traditional pubs serving hearty Irish fare to trendy international eateries, there’s something for every palate. Don’t miss Los Chicanos, renowned for Dublin’s best tacos, and the hidden Cake Café, a quirky treat tucked away inside The Last Bookshop.
Creative Haven: Camden Street has become a magnet for Dublin’s artists and entrepreneurs. Independent businesses, creative spaces, and a noticeable street art scene add a dynamic layer to its personality.
Nightlife Hotspot Crowds descend on Camden Street when the sun sets. Its pubs and bars create a lively yet laid-back atmosphere that attracts those seeking a great night out in Dublin.
A Stroll to Remember
A walk down Camden Street is a journey filled with surprises, from impromptu music sessions on a corner to discovering a hidden vintage clothing store. Located just a short stroll from Dublin’s city centre, it’s the perfect spot to experience a more authentic and edgy side of this beloved city.
Global Recognition
Camden Street’s inclusion in Time Out’s list, where it beat out streets from cities like Sydney and Miami, is a testament to everything it offers. This recognition further solidifies Dublin’s status as a city with diverse and exciting neighbourhoods worth exploring far beyond the tourist-heavy spots.
Wexford Street and Camden Street, located in Dublin, are like conjoined twins – linked together, often mistaken for one another, yet possessing distinct personalities. Here’s a breakdown of their relationship and why the confusion arises:
Why “One and the Same”?
Continuity: Wexford Street seamlessly transforms into Camden Street. There’s no jarring landmark or break between them, fostering the sense they’re a single entity.
Similar Vibes: Both streets boast a lively, somewhat bohemian character, teeming with pubs, restaurants, vintage shops, and a vibrant nightlife. This shared atmosphere further blurs the line between them.
Casual References: Dubliners often lump them together in conversation (“I’m heading down to Camden/Wexford”) without much concern for precise geography.
Subtle Differences
Age Demographic: While both attract a diverse crowd, Camden Street skews slightly younger overall, with a definite student vibe, while Wexford Street feels a touch more mature.
Venue Style: Camden Street has a reputation for its grungier, more alternative pubs and music venues, whereas Wexford Street offers a somewhat broader mix that includes a bit more upmarket dining.
Geography: Camden Street Upper lies closer to the Rathmines side of Dublin, while Wexford Street is directly on the route from the city center towards St. Stephen’s Green.
In Summary
Think of Wexford Street and Camden Street as siblings with a close bond. They share a common DNA of Dublin energy and an eclectic atmosphere. While there are nuances, most visitors stroll happily along both, soaking in the buzzing ambiance and often not caring which street name is on the sign.
