Dublin

What The Winding Stair is known for

The Winding Stair became a Dublin landmark as a bookshop in the 1970s, named after a Yeats poem and set beside the Ha'penny Bridge on Lower Ormond Quay. It reopened in 2006 with a restaurant upstairs, keeping the ground-floor bookshop and its old shelves intact.
