Clifford's Craft Butchers & Foodstore
Family-run Munster
Clifford's Craft Butchers & Foodstore is a family-run butcher based in Castlemartyr, County Cork. As well as the butcher's counter, it operates as a foodstore, so customers can pick up meat alongside other items in a single visit.
The shop is a member of the Associated Craft Butchers of Ireland, the trade body that represents the country's independent craft butchers. Membership points to a business that works in the traditional craft butchery way, preparing and cutting meat on the premises rather than relying solely on pre-packed supply.
Castlemartyr sits in east Cork, an area with a strong farming tradition and good access to local livestock and produce. A craft butcher in this part of the country is well placed to source meat from the surrounding region. If you are after cuts prepared by hand and the kind of advice a counter butcher can offer, Clifford's is worth a visit.
