A member of the Associated Craft Butchers of Ireland and proudly styled 'Old World Master Butchers', Michael O'Loughlin's shop is a reminder of the way butchers used to be, with lots of character, proper local supplies and an emphasis on service.
You'll find 21-day dry-aged beef here, lamb from The Burren across in Co Clare, ham and bacon from Tipperary and a whole lot of unusual things.
Many of the old-fashioned cuts are offered, things like tripe, skirt and pig's tails that you never see any more, except in places like the English Market, and you'll get other hard-to-find foods too like rabbit, and game in season. Then there's seasonal poultry of course and, if you're planning a big party, this is the place to get a pig on a spit.
Then there's a range of sausage and every kind of ham and bacon, including home cured rashers, and organic chickens, free range eggs, duck eggs...And an online shop too.
It's quite a business.
