Came by on a Monday at around 2:30 AM, excited to try some food. Unfortunately, everything seemed…read morepretty basic and overpriced, and there didn't seem to be too many options. Instead, the stalls mainly sell produce, meat, cheese, and seafood, which would be great if you were a local, but we were just visiting. There are a few stalls selling things like candies/honey/jams, that were reasonably priced, so we bought a few of those to bring home as souvenirs. We spent probably about half an hour walking around and made it through the entire market. It was fun to walk around and see all the local goods/products, but don't expect a lot of options for good food if you're hungry.

From a very loyal customer. Great supermarket, beautiful fresh food. Very disappointed tonight…read morethough!.. I understand that the shop closes at 10pm and i arrived to the store at 10.10pm but alot of staff were just inside the door and would not open the door to speak to me. I was needing an urgent product for my baby. I am so disappointed that the man at the door would not even have the decency to open the door slightly to talk to me and see what i needed. I was very lucky that Tesco was open until 11pm and i got sorted there.

The store is very well stocked where you'll find what might be considered hard to find ingredients. This is a 'tester' store for the Supervalu group so you'll find new products piloted here on a regular basis. The shop is spotlessly clean and you'd need a coat venturing down the frozen food aisles! The staff are alway friendly and eager to please. They also operate a home delivery service.

They have a stand alone restaurant too but this one is convenient because it inside the market. The staff is very friendly and the service was quick. I ordered the original gourmet sausages with all the toppings except mustard and relish. The meat was tender juicy and the bread was soft. With the toppings it made one delicious hotdog meal. If I had the cooler I would have ordered some fresh ones to go.

Even if the staff weren't friendly and fast, I would give the restaurant 5 stars. Since the guys, who work there, are friendly, attentive and fast, I would give 6 stars. The variety of good sausages is awesome, you can get them raw at the English Market as well, they have a stand there. The quantity is good as well, and the prices are more than fair.

This is a great place to shop if you are in Blackrock. This location has been done up nicely and…read morehas many great features here you will not find at other SuperValu locations. They have a deli area with a great selection of tapas, ready cooked dinners made fresh, and a sandwich bar. The selection here also is much better and seems to have many of the higher end items you normally would only find at specialty shops or M&S. The only thing which bothers me about this place is the fact that for some reason around lunch and dinner time it is completely filled with elderly shoppers who for whatever reason congregate at those times and the queues come to a standstill. If you avoid those two times you will find the queues are not bad and the selection is brilliant.

Healthy organic vegetarian/vegan food in Cork Hidden gem!…read more Food **** Absolutely delicious. We got the special which was a Malaysian vegetable curry with spicy apple chutney. We also ordered the Nut loaf which was an absolute must - one of the best dishes we've had in a while - comes with roasted potatoes and roasted root vegetables. SO GOOD! Atmosphere **** Very cute restaurant located on the second floor of a health food store but has an upscale feel. Parking can be tricky but we got a spot on the street near the restaurant and then you can purchase a parking pass for 2 euro at the food shop on the first floor. Service **** Great service and relaxed. Also bathrooms available. Price $$ Dishes were around 15 euro each.

I couldn't help but to notice the portion differences for the sides. Ours was much less..but anyways, I loved the burger. The coolest thing about veggie burgers is that it is always different. No veggie burger will ever taste the same unless it's not homemade. The choice of toppings and bun was grand too. It seemed like a multi-grain bun. The patty was so rich in flavor. I was not impressed with the Shepherd's pie. It was just a mush of grains. I was expecting something similar to a veggie pot pie. It was good but it was a dish I usually make at home minus the top. The sides were quite natural - quick toss to cook them with minimal seasoning. If you are feeling healthy and not up for extreme flavor, this is a safe choice. Portions are filling and staff are friendly. The restrooms are located upstairs.

If they don't have the cut you want, e.g. rib roast on the bone, they'll get it for you given a little notice. The shop is absolutely spotless and the staff are forever cleaning! The staff are so friendly and knowlegeable and eager to help. Crowleys have won numerous awards for their meat. At Christmas as you collect your turkey & ham, they have drinks and chococlates for their customers and also selection boxes for the kids - a very nice touch.
