Heavens Cakes beautiful with coffee

Heavens Cakes has got the right idea when it comes to cakes & savoury tarts.
Just looking at these beautiful tasty treats may put on a few calories, but when you taste them its well worth it.
Trading now in the market for a number of years they have started to give to the locals what used to be seen in cookery books or on the television.

Fresh Fruit and Vegetables

The market includes a wide choice of healthy, nutritious and flavorsome vegetables, including Organic selections and fruit.

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.

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..

Lunch-time treat with coffee

Today you can find the older traditional stalls, Vegetable, Butchers, Fruit, Fishmongers along side Cheese, Pasta, Health, Coffee, Sandwich, Oriental stalls but to name a few. Produce that would have only been seen on holidays on far off exotic places are now readly available in the market every day.

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.

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.

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.

Real Olive Company

Toby Simmonds first started trading in the market in 1993 when he managed to secure a vacant stall from Gerry Moynihan in the Princes-Street part of the market. At first Toby began with just twelve barrels of basic olives and for his first year was met with plenty of bemused customers who regularly asked what type of grapes they were.
