Fitzgerald's Butchers
Family-run Munster
Fitzgerald's Butchers is a family-run butcher based in Cork, in the south of Ireland. As a traditional craft butcher, the shop offers the kind of counter service where cuts can be prepared to order and staff can advise on what suits a particular dish or method of cooking.
The business is a member of the Associated Craft Butchers of Ireland, the trade body that represents the country's independent craft butchers. Membership reflects a connection to the wider community of skilled, independent butchers across Ireland and an interest in maintaining traditional butchery standards.
Cork sits in a part of Ireland known for its strong farming tradition, with good grazing land supporting beef and lamb production. A craft butcher in this setting is well placed to supply locally reared meat, with the buying and preparation handled in store rather than centrally. For shoppers in and around Cork, a family-run shop like this offers a more personal alternative to supermarket meat counters.
