from the outside it just looks like a little old grocery store, but in at the back they have the biggest selection of craft/micro and nano brews of any store in the city. the choices are endless… i dont think i have ever bought food shopping here… just because i am always drawn to the beer… looking for an obscure brewery from Roscommon, they will have it! and if they dont they will get it for you… and thats just beer… loads of wine and spirits too…

BRADLEY’S Called into Bradley’s, North Main Street, to browse among their 700 wines. Wouldn’t you know it — they didn’t have the Four Sisters Shiraz that I was on the lookout for. At least that was my excuse for calling. They had some bargains, one Australian Shiraz I had bought elsewhere before Christmas was marked down by three euro. The Penfold’s Rawson Retreat range was also down by that amount and I treated herself(my excuse) to a bottle of Semillon Chardonnay. They also have huge ranges of spirits and beers but I didn’t have time to check them all or the arms to carry them. Settled for a few beers on this occasion and am now looking forward to sampling Pilsner Urquell(€ 2.99), Rick Stein’s Chalky’s Bark Open(€ 2.99) and, from Oz, Hahn Premium(€ 1.89). My father always maintained that Bradley’s had the best bottled Irish beer in town but they have now spread their wings and are well worth a visit. Service, by the way, was relaxed and friendly.
