About Mountjoy Square
Mountjoy Square is a historic Georgian garden square in Dublin 1, just north of the city centre and close to Parnell Square, O’Connell Street, Broadstone and Ballybough. Its red-brick terraces, central green and mature trees give the area a distinctive architectural character, while the surrounding streets are lively, densely urban and increasingly popular with renters, students and city-centre professionals. Residents have straightforward access to schools and community services, including the Community After Schools Project, as well as the wider educational provision around Dublin 1 and Phibsborough. O’Connell Street and Parnell Street provide everyday shops, cafés, takeaways and restaurants, with more extensive retail and dining available towards Henry Street, Capel Street and the IFSC. Local nightlife ranges from traditional pubs and small bars to the restaurants and late venues around the city centre. The square itself offers valuable green space, while nearby Diamond Park and the Garden of Remembrance provide additional places to walk and relax. Public transport is strong overall, with frequent city buses, nearby rail access at Drumcondra and connections through the city-centre stops around O’Connell Street and Marlborough Street. Q-Park The Spire is a convenient nearby parking option, although owning a car is less essential here than in many suburban areas.
