Jones' Soda Co.

flogen

I recently found one of my local shops (the newsagents in omni) stocking bottles of Jones' drinks, some US/Canadian company that seems to have a kind of unusual but charming philosophy (the flavours are somewhat unusual, you can send in your picture for the chance of having it show up on some stock etc.).

I tried all the ones available - about 3 or 4 flavours - and they were OK, but their Cream Soda was absolutely gorgeous.

Anyway, said local shop has been out of Cream Soda for a few weeks now and I went in today to see that there were no Jones' at all... which either means it's insanely popular and they only get one delivery a week or its insanely unpopular and they've decided to stock boring, normal drinks again.

Either way, it's bad news for me and my Jones' Cream Soda addiction... so given that their site doesn't deliver outside North America I'm looking to see if anyone knows of other Jones' stockists in Dublin?

At the risk of making it even harder for myself to get more of this stuff, if you like Cream Soda of any description you have to try this... it's superb.

I see you are on the Northside of Dublin.

The Hilton Airport Hotel on the Malahide Road at Tesco Clare Hall has a shop beside it called Fresh.

They sell it, and always seem to have stock.

Wish I'd read this thread a half hour ago though, I was just down there getting smokes and could have got a bottle of this. Closed now though.

They also stock other Cream Sodas too

Ah, I know the place you're talking about.

I've only been there once and it seems like the perfect place for this kind of obscure stuff (If you're willing to pay extra for it, that is!)... didn't even cross my mind though.

Thanks for that - will give it a go... and the other cream sodas too!

Found this stuff in Centra in Finglas last week. Have only tried two of the flavours. Havent tried Cream Soda yet. Only thing is it looked bad walking down the street with a glass bottle and a blue drink in. Has a resemblence to Blue WKD.

Malteaser!

They have it in a deli called Silverspoon in Castleknock, too far away from the omni to go for a drink though me thinks!!

flogen

I actually found some Jones' in two shops in Shanard (Shanard News and The Late Shop), but no Cream Soda...

It seems to be becoming far easier to find, although the shop keeper I asked told me what they get is luck of the draw and the cream soda seems hard to come by for some reason...

Probably because it's so delicious!!

JIZZLORD

this is odd, my canadian coleague was asking had i ever heard of the stuff, and lo and behold,

Dinxminx

They sell it in Dundrum on one of the half levels.... Had it once - the blue one. Wasn't too fond of it though.

Understatement of the year tbh, this stuff if gorgeous. I bought two bottles down in Fresh, they had two left

Kintarō Hattori

I've seen it several times in shops in the city centre. Centra, Londis and the No:1 shops.

moonflower

They have it in Mortons in Galway. I found it a few weeks ago and I love it. I really want to try the Cream Soda, but they only have a red one, blue one and green one

whiskeyman

This stuff seems to be the current drink fad of all posh school kids. Seeing lots of them swig bottles of the stuff and leave empties on the Luas.

The fufu berry one is lovely.. got a bottle in Bon Espresso on Mount Street yesterday.. Very tasty indeed

flyingdagger

Yeah, it's pretty addictive which is why it's not surprising to see shops with blue, red and green bottles but no beautiful Cream Soda.

(Frankly, I'm just waiting for the story to appear that a certain imported soft drink was found to contain large quantities of liquid heroin. There's no other explanation)

XxlauraxX

i have tasted Fufu berry,strawberry lime,bubblegum,green apple and cream soda. i didnt like the cream soda my favourite is Fufu berry!!!:D:p:p:D

Donegal Lass

BArra

sickly sweet

Chat Mauvais

Wow!...I just came upon this site tonite...and as luck would have it...(or maybe not,judging by some of the "ewww" comments made about these drinks!)...I saw this in a Garage in Kells,Co. Meath,...and thought "Holy Banana's",.....they're sellin 'Alcopops' in the Flamin Petrol Station now!..so I picked it up and was stunned to see that it was a soft drink....now I was actually going to buy some,but, because I was driving, I didn't wanna be stopped by some over zealous Garda,and Breathalyzed!!.:)..so I left it alone...but after reading all of the postings...I'll be sure to pick up a bottle next time......but as they had a fair few flavours,I don't know which one to buy.......still at €1.65 a pop,well I may just get 1 of each......

snickerpuss

They are also in Avoca in Dublin City Centre.

JIZZLORD

You could try ringing one of the distributors in Dublin. Check the phone book for Simply Declicious snacks and drinks. They are one of the distributors and may be able to help you.

kev_s88

Dunnes seem to have them a good bit now.ive seen them in 5 or 6 different Dunnes's

KatiexKOUTURE--

I LOVE jones!!

In one of the local filling stations they sell about 8 or 9 flavours

sunnyjim

Dunnes in the Stevens Green Centre have them.

estebancambias

Got crate of cream soda today for nothing.


I hate temptation.

Corruptedmorals

Centra on Dame Street (near Starbucks) stocks it and so does the newsagents on Grafton Street, near Mc Donalds. In the cyberbandy shop in London, they had Jones Soda sweets..

It's Stephens green, not Stevens:mad: Topshop receipts print Steven's Green as well..idiots.

redshoulder

Can get them in Aldi starting this thursday.

Oh god. Bad, bad memories!!

I used the strawberry one last summer as a mixer with vodka. It tastes great, but a combination of the overwhelming sweetness and the drink being so easy to knock back resulted in me puking up lurid pink vomit within a couple of hours. That was almost exactly a year ago too. Ugh... .

emperor_krunchy

a good few Spars and Supervalues sell them AFAIK

GrumPy

The cream soda tastes like liquid candy floss with even MORE sugar

(if that's possible!!)
:pac:


Vile!

TK ftw!!

January

O'Briens in Charlestown Shopping Centre sell it.

giggsy664

Any places in swords that sell the Root Beer version. I have already eliminated Spar, Topaz and Centra on the Main Street

redshoulder

Tasted the bubblegum and the cream soda one off Aldi for the first time. They are both very sweet, I prefer the bubblegum one.

StephenP023

Its distributed by Simply Direct LTD, 403 Grants Park, Greenhouse Business Park, Rathcoole Co. Dublin

JONJO THE MISER

I havent seen Jones soda products in the shops for a few months, anyone know where i can get them?

DFB BOY

I know most of the Superquinns sell them but only in a 4 pack,think its around 6.75 for the 4 pack!!!!!!!

star-pants

Supervalu sometimes have them. So do Lidl/Aldi occasionally.

Echizado

Topic on Jones Soda. I love that brand of soda. I bet it's a bit difficult to get it outside the USA. It's a soda company based in Seattle WA USA, the same city where I live, so naturally every store and gas station sells them. I had been reading some of the post and find out that it's almost rare to find in Ireland. I personally didn't like the taste of Cream Soda, my favorite is green apple and berry lemonade.

[ am I the first to reply outside of Ireland? (on this specific topic) ]

Jamesy..961

They have thede flavoured sweets too that you can put into the drink or jus eat them! They are pure class!

RonMexico

Feehans Foodstore in Thomondgate Limerick (opposite the Topaz as you approach Thomond Park) have all the different flavoured Jones drinks. Loads of retro sweets too. Yum:D

sassychick

Jcs in swords stock a load of flavours ive never tried them tink ill have to sample a few:D

Pythia

I love Jones Soda. You can get them in the newsagent in Dundrum, the newsagent at the Balally Luas and the newsagent opposite St Stephen's Green centre. Yum yum.
