Ireland Cuisine Means More Than What Pubs Offer

While Ireland is primarily famous for its unique and very well established pub scene there is a growing love and appreciation for food and several festivals really showcase what Ireland’s developing food scene really means. From traditional recipes to modern influences here is a list with the best restaurants and shops to experience the real taste of Ireland.

Sheridans

Cheese may be even more popular than beer in Ireland and the diversity is absolutely astonishing. One of the largest chains of cheese shops, Sheridan’s, has shops set up in Dublin as well as Cork, Galway, Waterford and Meath. Customers can try different types of cheese from all regions of Ireland and can even try their hand at some local wine.

Fab Food Tours

While not a shop per se, Fab Food Tours offers tours that encapsulate Irish cuisine in about half a day of walking through Dublin. Taking tourists from markets to chocolate shops, cheese shops and everything in between it is the perfect way to get a taste of Ireland while on a schedule.

Irish Whiskey Trail

Food is great but any traveler must experience one of Ireland’s richest traditions, and that is quality whiskey. With an online planning tool tourists can set up their own itinerary and check out the best distilleries, bars and pubs while tasting some of the very best whiskey in the world.
