The villagelike suburb of Rathmines centres on a cluster of upscale gastropubs, global bistros, and coffee shops near a landmark clock tower on Rathmines Road Lower. Shopping includes fashion chains in Swan Shopping Centre and independent bookstores, while a few small art galleries sell work by modern Irish painters. Redbrick Victorian houses line leafy streets, and Leinster Cricket Club hosts league matches.
