Overlooking the fountain from Farm-Gate

A lot of things taste better in Ireland: the Guinness, the farmhouse cheese, the fried pork, the dirty spuds. Since some of us aren\'t ready to ditch the St. Patrick\'s-ian mindset, this has to be one of the Emerald Isle\'s best culinary destinations: The English Market in Cork City, an indoor covered market hall and Ireland\'s answer to the lively, delicious Turkish bazaars. It\'s been around since 1786.

The Real Olive Company

In the Grand Parade market the range of olives and the produce that they are selling includes chillies, feta cheese, pickles, sun-dried tomatoes, vine leaves, olive oil and dried fruits.

Farmhouse Cheese\'s available in the market

On the Pigs Back in the English Market offers excellent cheese and charcuterie from both home and abroad. Whether its for the home table or a restaurant, they can cater for all your needs. The staff are friendly, professional and most important know about all the products they sell.

Cork English Market

It is one of the oldest of its kind. Trading as a market since 1788, it predates most of the other markets like it. Barcelona\'s famous Boqueria market did not start until 80 years after it first started to serve the people of Cork. It has survived the Famine, Revolutions, Wars, Fire and Economic decline..

General Info

Feeding You and Your Baby Right From the Start

Most of us know that eating a healthy, balanced diet will help to keep us fit and healthy and prevent disease in later life, but few of us think seriously about our food until we start to plan a pregnancy. That is when we realise that what we eat will affect not just our health but also the health of the baby.

Salad + Sandwich Bar

Salad & Sandwich Stall

Where the impressive Salad & Sandwich Bar stall is located within the old fish market, you are still able to view parts of the orginal stall that used to be M & E Sheehan's, which started trading in early 1906....

The stall is an impressive sight on any day, offering coffee and refreshments to weary shoppers, as well as beautiful gourmet sandwiches made with the freshest of ingredients every morning. Little delicasies are also on offer, such as tasty Greek 'dolmades', the refresing 'tzatziki' that can be used as a dip, or slices of 'halvas' for those seeking a sweet treat.

If you are looking for fresh home-made soup to accompany your sandwich or just soup by itself then take a seat and taste one of the markets hidden treasures. Come early at lunch time as the queue can be quite long, however the wait is well worth it.

All of the foodstuff and refreshments are available for take-away. Open from early morning until late afternoon.
