Situated on the Main Street across from Dingle Bay, this is a cute local shop specializing in all…read morethings wool. We popped in while wandering around Dingle and spent a few minutes inside looking through all the wool sweaters, hats and socks. Such a great selection and variety of sweaters, so many colors and patterns! In addition to the wool items, they had a small selection of other souvenirs including clothing, keychains, hats, artworks, etc... Service was welcoming and friendly. Prices seemed fair for what I have seen while in Ireland. Overall, solid little shop in Dingle!

Cute store with a decent selection. We did buy a couple of t-shirts. Nothing more specific to shareread more

From what I saw, the Kenmare location had more of a selection of clothing (including men's). The locations I visited in London were smaller shops located in stations, slightly cheaper, but less options available. They also have an online website you can order from, but it's more expensive to purchase online as an American. Plus, the store employee we interacted with at the time was very sweet and helpful. When I first walked in, I was immediately drawn in by the style of clothing they offered. I ended up getting getting a waterproof jacket, and can't wait to wear it when Seattle starts raining again!

While in Ireland we visited Brian de Staic upon recommendation of our guide. While they were…read morefriendly in the store, we had an issue with the product when shipped to our home in the US. From that moment on the service was very bad. The business was non communicative and totally misrepresented the time to repair my expensive item. I had to continually follow up to get any information. To day they have had the item for 4 months and I have still not received it back. I may have to file a claim on my credit card.

Pro: great Irish gifts, authentic Irish wool products, fabulous customer service…read more Con: wool products are a bit high priced, but it's well worth it. I would say this is not really a con because the price was reasonable compared to other Irish wool products. The wool seems like it was of higher quality too. I loved this store and the town!!!!!! Quills has friendly staff, and a very big store. There's lots of items for sale, knitted Aran goods from sweaters to beanies to scarves. They also sell traditional Irish gifts. They sell clothing and boots. I had the best experience shopping here. The staff are very knowledgeable about all the knitted goods, and explain the history behind it. As a tourist, this was my best shopping experience in all of the Republic of Ireland! Whenever I make it back to Emerald Isle, I plan on spending the day in Kenmare and visiting this lovely store! I only wish I took pictures of the inside. If you are looking for Irish knits, nice clothing, or other Irish gifts, Quills is the place to be! You can pay with your Visa or Euros.

A couple of weeks ago we visited a few of the Quills Woollen Markets in the southwest of Ireland…read moreand bought a few items as well. At the one at 1 Main St, Kenmare, Co. Kerry, we purchased what we thought was a men's wool sweater. It certainly seemed to be priced as a wool sweater. It was a gift for a family member back home. We found it in the upstairs area of the store. We gave our family member the gift last night only to discover the sweater was made from polyester. What a disappointment. We never thought to actually read the tag (our mistake) because the area of the store seemed to imply that the goods were wool items. This was a bit of an embarrassing mistake. The sweater certainly wasn't priced how we would expect a polyester product to be priced. My advice is to try not to assume, regardless of setting. If you're looking for something authentic, be sure to check the item and tags (if any) thoroughly. The other items we purchased all seem to be as expected.

They have everything from large backpacks to small cord organizers - all handcrafted in their adjacent shop. You can even watch the work occur before your eyes through the storefront's glass that looks into the workshop. I picked a vibrant red handbag that I will use for many decades to come. Also, if you find something you like, but they don't have it in a specific color, you can also have it special-ordered, and they will ship it to you.
