Mahon Point Farmers Market
The largest farmers' market in Cork, featuring over 50 stalls. Offers award-winning local cheeses, organic vegetables, freshly baked breads, hot street foods, and sweet treats in a vibrant social setting.
When and where
Mahon Point Farmers Market meets every Thursday at 10:00 AM. It meets at Mahon Point Shopping Centre (outside main entrance), Mahon, Cork, Co. Cork.
Times and venues do move, particularly at the start of a new season and around bank holidays, so it is worth confirming the next date with the group before travelling.
What to expect
Mahon Point Farmers Market is a regular market rather than a club, so there is nothing to join and nobody to sign up with. Traders set up in the morning and the best selection is early; by the last hour some stalls have packed up.
Bring a bag and some cash. Card is widely accepted now but not universally, and a few traders still prefer cash for small amounts.
Trader lineups change week to week and with the seasons, so what is on the stalls in February is not what is there in August.
Who it suits
Anyone shopping for local food and produce. No membership, no commitment, just turn up.
