D.P Murphy & Sons

Family-run Munster

D.P Murphy & Sons is a family-run craft butcher based in Midleton, County Cork. The shop sits in east Cork, an area with a strong farming tradition and good access to local livestock, which has long supported a network of independent butchers across the region.

The business is a member of the Associated Craft Butchers of Ireland, the trade body that represents Ireland's independent craft butchers. Membership points to a butcher working within an established trade network, with the focus on skilled, counter-based service rather than pre-packed supermarket supply.

As a craft butcher, the team prepares and cuts meat on the premises, so customers can ask for specific cuts and portions and get advice over the counter. For shoppers in the Midleton area and the wider Cork region, this is the kind of local butcher where you can buy fresh meat and talk to the person serving you. Contact the shop directly for current opening hours and what they have in stock.
