Here stands the
Amber Grill

It was really after Second World War that the chippers spread in
Ireland. Amber Grill, on the South Circular Road, 451, Rialto, dates back
to 1956.
R
Riaialto is an old area of Dublin, it took its name from Venice and it has
long connections to industry. In fact the “original canal was constructed
to serve the Guinness brewery, and much of Rialto Street and Rialto
Cottages were built to house Guinness employees at the tail end of the
19th century. These developments gave the area a redbrick character
which it keeps to this day. In the middle of the 20th century, it became
home to two of Dublin Corporation’s large-scale housing projects,
D
Dolphinolphin House and Fatima Mansions. The latter became a byword for
failed inner-city development and was eventually demolished in the
early 2000s; Dolphin House is currently undergoing extensive
regeneration works. In common with the rest of Dublin 8, recent years
have seen an influx of younger renters and buyers who mix with
residents of several generations standing. House prices are also rising
rapidly – jumping by almost 20 per cent each year since 2016.
Amber Grill is a local institution if you are looking for something
substantial to eat”. (7) It is conveniently located at walking distance
from the Luas stops and important city hospitals such as James
Hospital, Coombe Hospital and its Neonatal centre and the main
Dublin tourist attraction: Guinness Storehouse.
