Where to Buy Christmas Food in Dublin

Christmas is a time of the year to indulge, it’s a time of year when you have a perfect excuse for eating too much so go on, please yourself. Wondering where to buy Christmas food in Dublin? Here’s a list of places where you can get delicious festive food to indulge during the Christmas season or to serve at your Christmas dinner.

James Whelan Butchers at Avoca Monkstown

In Dublin you’ll find James Whelan in the wonderful Avoca Food Market in Monkstown. They have a beautiful butcher shop where you can get your quality Irish meat. If Monkstown isn’t very convenient for you to get to, have a browse of their online shop from which you can order your turkey, ham, spiced beef or even Christmas hampers for the big family dinner.

Sheridans Cheesemongers

Sheridans is without a doubt the best place to find cheese in Dublin, especially if you’re looking to serve a great Irish farmhouse cheese board to your guests around Christmas time. Ask for some advice from the lovely cheesemongers and the’ll sort you out in no time. It’s not only about cheese though, you’ll find crackers, chutneys and even wines to go with it. The shop gets extremely busy in December so you’d better plan your visit early, or you can always use their online shop [http://www.sheridanscheesemongers.com/shopfront/%5D].

Like Fallon and Byrne, Donnybrook Fair is a foodie heaven and very convenient if you can’t make it to the busy city centre.
