Right next to our breakfast place, spotted this shop and a van rolled up with produce and unloaded…read morelovely bunches of carrots, beats and onions while we eating our breakfast. I was intrigued by the signage proclaiming that they had local strawberry baskets and after breakfast, walked over and spoke to the lad manning the store register. He explained they had a farm in a place called Maharees and the strawberries were grown there, a 30 minute drive from Dingle township. The strawberries looked so lovely and fresh plus they were a normal size not the steroid induced size that I normally find at Costco. So I purchased a basket for €3.50 and they were delicious! Also while I was in the shop, it was all locals, so imo, def check it out if you are visiting and pick up the produce and support a local farmer. Note: #269 of Yelp 100 challenge for 2016

Coming her on a Saturday while in Limerick is a must. The variety of foods and drink, sandwiches…read morebreakfast and lunch offerings will please almost anyone. There's a chocolate cookie shop, fermented foods stand, bread and pastry, cheese, fish, and meats. The atmosphere is lively and friendly. There's even a clothing and jewelry shop. It's a large farmer's type market serving the entire city. In addition to the shopping and eye candy just looking, it's a wonderful place to observe a cross section of the people who live here.

The Milk Market, according to google, is a go-to place to visit on the weekends (especially…read moreSaturday) when you're in Limerick and it did not disappoint! I had the most amazing steak sandwich & fresh squeezed OJ. All the stands looked like it had amazing food and goodies. I wish we had more time to explore all the stands, but was in a crunch to leave for the Cliffs Of Moher. Everyone we did interact with were extremely nice and pleasant. I would definitely recommend making a trip here if you have time!

Got a sweet tooth? Aunty Nellie's has you covered…read more This is a chain store, so most of the goods are packaged. Still, you'll find a wide selection of handmade chocolates and other sweets you can order individual pieces of. Packaged sweets range from the mass-produced kind you'll find in the supermarket to the nice kind you'd feel comfortable gifting to somebody you like. Unfortunately, they no longer sell the "Galway Girl" chocolate that's shown in one of the pictures on Yelp. The cashier pointed me to other chocolate bars that she said were the same chocolate but different packaging, like "Hello from Galway" and "Kiss Me, I'm Irish". There's an 8 euro minimum for credit cards. Also, I didn't see any free samples being given out. This is a fine place to get sweets for yourself and those you care about, but it being a chain store makes the experience a little less personal.

In this particular shop, a massive amount of patrons are the school-chlidren from English-language courses, usually in groups of 20 or more and all getting their own sweets separately. In fairness to the staff here, they never seem to break a sweat or get stressed out by this occurrence, and they're always super sound.
