Hi,
I was down at the Blackrock Market last Sunday and it got me wondering what other markets there are in Dublin.

Does anyone know of any others?

Naas Road market every sunday. think that is what it is called anyway??
Also, there is one in Balbriggan on a Sunday as well

There's one in rathmines. You go under some house. Don't know what day it's on though.

There's a Ranelagh Farmers Market (Yes, farmers, I know) every Sunday in the Local Multi-domination school.

It's kind of opposite St Mary's school, go over the Rathmines bridge (coming out of town), go down the Rathmines Rd and it's on the left.

organic food market with the best samosas in dublin in st. andrews pearse st/ringsend. just at the junction of pearse st and macken st. open all day saturday.

but they ask you to join for a tenner/year just to shop which kinda deters one from droppin in, don't you know. real great food though, and it's only e2 just to drop in once.

Its ok, only been there once or twice. good for dvd`s, etc
If you come through the town from Dublin and you come up to the Garda station, turn left and as you head towards the M1, its on the left hand side as far as I remember..

Maybe it should have been asked are there any good markets in Dublin?
They really don't seem to be a good mix of things. The food ones seem to be fine but the craft ones seem to be expensive and/or full of useless things.
Mother Redcaps was good but is well gone after been run into the ground.

The one in ashbourne used to be deadly, one mans trash in another mans treasure etc. You would pick up great stuff real cheap. Never buy off the tinkers though.

I loved to join you in some racist banter but I have a brain.

"I loved to join you"? Learn English fool. I wouldn't like to argue with you, I would be too afraid of all the people who would rally around you in support of the honest hard working tinkers.
