This is a small place that I've only heard about while I was doing a cooking course…read more They specialize in all sorts of kitchen/catering equipment and have an extensive amount of knives for choice. So if you're looking for a spatchel, tins, pourers for liquor bottles etc. chances are you'll find it here. The reason I come here quite frequently (every couple of months) is to get my chef knives sharpened. Takes them only a couple of minutes and at 2 Euro a pop it's well worth it! The only downside for a member of the general workforce like me are the opening times. Monday to Friday from 8.30 to 5pm. There's no way I can make that, unless I'm off. Staff are absolutely lovely and very knowledgeable. Can only recommend this place

This place tried to charge me 7 euro for the most boring of door stops. And they almost got away…read morewith it. I walked into this shop hoping to buy a nice tea cosy, the place is jammers with cool stuff. Things like chopping boards that fold up for easy scooping into a pot, and spatulas with a bump to keep the spatula head off the kitchen table and thus keeping the table clean. These are really good ideas, and you look at the prices and think that they're expensive, but maybe they're good value... Anyway, after a few hours of unsuccessful search, I pull a member of their staff away from her Facebook to ask where Tea Cosies can be found. They have a lot of tea cosies, it has to be said, I spent a good 20 minutes deciding between the cosy shaped like a hen or the bottom up design for €20 In the end, function over fashion, the bottom up design won (see photo). I then remembered I needed a doorstop for the house. I found a bucket'o'doorstops and picked one up, no excitement needed here! At the checkout my bill came to €27, which was €7 for the doorstop. I was like "ok, that's fair", compared to this €20 tea cosy, that seems like the going rate. But thankfully I managed to cop myself on to this absolute ripoff. They are actually trying to charge me €7 for a piece of plastic which does nowt but use friction to resist the door's gravity... So I just went to Dunnes and got one for €0.50 instead!. Anyway, this story only justifies a 2 star location, but they go down to a 1 star shop in my opinion because of their TERRIBLE hours. Stock closes at 5:30, and is closed all Sunday. Suddenly I understand why their prices have to be so high.

A supermarket inside a mall? Better believe it…read more Tesco is a fully-featured supermarket that also sells an array of things like clothing, phones and TVs. Grocery prices seem reasonable for a commercial supermarket. The wife and I spent 20 euros on enough milk, juice, cereal, fruits and veggies to last a couple days. Not bad considering the two of us spent more than that on just one meal when eating out. Tesco carries globally-known brands, Irish brands, as well as certain things under their own label. The price difference between the store brand and other brands is often significant. There are self-checkout machines as well as traditional cashiers. Either one you choose, you are responsible for bagging your own groceries. Disposable bags are not provided, so bring your own bags or buy a reusable one here. The only thing I thought was weird was how after I had paid for my groceries and my receipt was printing, the cashier demanded to see my card and ID, saying I need to prove that this is my card. Do they treat everybody this way, or did the guy think there was something suspicious about two Asian people with American accents? I mean if I was trying to commit credit card fraud at a supermarket, I'd at least use the self-checkout machine.

Tesco is quite an empire at this stage with its ambitious little fingers reaching into every pie…read moreincluding groceries, clothing, credit cards, phones and insurance. However far they stretch, I still think the majority of us most readily associate Tesco with food shopping. There seems to be a Tesco around almost every corner in Ireland and this includes Dublin's Jervis Street. As Heather says, the prices are reasonable. The selection is also decent but you won't find anything too outlandish. It would be nice to see bigger fair trade, natural and organic selections in a supermarket that has so much pull. The 'finest' selection is that bit more gourmet and verges on M&S-style luxury food. Tesco stocks a good selection of ready-made food for the weary and the busy. Tesco claims to support Irish producers and I wouldn't dare to suggest any different but I know some mightily disgruntled Irish farmers who would.

This shop was originally known as Mujirushi Ryohin, this is japanese for, "no label quality goods"…read more. the name was abreviated to Muji so that us Irish folk dont trip over our tongues trying to say it I imagine! this is a shop that i totally love! unfortunately the stock is always the same, it never changes. but i love the simplicity of it all, i love how plain most of the stuff looks. sometimes plain stuff is the nicest stuff in my opinion and if you don't like it too much you should think of it as a blank canvas ready for you to make something unique out of it! this shop is great for storage solutions and good quality paper and the range of colored pens is just so cool!

Worst Kitchen brand in Ireland by far. Don't waste your hard earned money you will only regret it…read more The day fitter came and started fitting the kitchen i had started highlighting the issue but i was told i should let them finish the job and i can then highlight issues with the showroom directly. After Job was finished i went through the list of issue and highlighted straight away. I was literally told on the phone that they are sick of my complains even though i only spoke with them twice. I was only trying to avoid them from making blunders before it will be to late and  which obviously they did make. I was then told they will address issues after Christmas and new year break and they did send a different fitter to see if issues was real or just made up. Fitter had agreed with me that issues was there and need addressing. Naas shower room sent email refusing to fix issues the way fitter told them these could be fixed and instead told me to go buy another product from another shop e.g. Work top joints had gaps and had leak. The solution is to remove the work tops and re do them. Instead the solution offered by  cash & carry put silicon from the top. Imagine silicon on your work top right where you cook.  The list goes on and on. They didn't care about warranty which was in terms of their business. My advise to all people out there would be avoid cash & carry disaster.

Walking along Nassau Street this weekend I stumbled upon this new store called Tiger only a short…read moredistance from Grafton street. I have never been in a Tiger store before but I was really surprised. They sell all kinds of little gadgets and styling office supplies and other random things. They pride themselves on low prices and nothing in the store being over 30 Euro. They had random iphone cases for only 3 Euro and lots of little unique random things. It reminds me of Ikea a little in that you walk in with no specific purchase in mind but walk out with tons of things. It is a nice store and setup well for browsing with a nice circular path leading you through the store and finally to the checkout lane. Staff are friendly and helpful too. I will be back.

My favourite things I've found here have been postcard sized blank jigsaw puzzles. They're blank so you can design them yourself. They make great little presents or fun ways to send messages to people. On another stationary note they also sell 3 greeting cards for a euro. Yes THREE cards for ONE euro. Mad. Some of the cards aren't that great but there are always at least 3 cool ones. Also they sometimes sell stroopwafflels in the food section. Win!

Today was the first time I have stopped into Knobs and Knockers in Dun Laoghaire. I liked the fact…read morethat I was able to browse around their shop checking out their extensive range of products and was told to let them know when I had any queries. It was one of the best customer experiences I have ever had. I had a somewhat awkward situation which Dave went above and beyond to resolve for me, for which I am extremely grateful and is the reason why I am spending the time to write this review. So, if you are looking for Knobs or Knockers (of the Door kind!) and want a wide variety to choose from and excellent customer service, I would highly recommend stopping in.
