Carrick-on-Suir Farmers Market

Carrick-on-Suir Farmers Market is the one weekday market in this part of Tipperary, trading every Friday rather than the Saturday slot most local markets use. It sets up in the grounds of the Heritage Centre on Main Street, close to the River Suir, from 10am to 2pm. The midweek timing suits shoppers stocking up ahead of the weekend, and the market draws on the town’s history as a working river port that is still a market town at heart.

What to expect

Stalls sell fresh local produce including fish, locally farmed meat and poultry, organic fruit and vegetables, baked goods, cheeses and pates, alongside both savoury and sweet pancakes cooked on site. The mix of fish and pancake stalls alongside the usual vegetable and meat traders gives it a slightly different character to the Saturday markets elsewhere in the county. The Heritage Centre grounds provide a sheltered, central setting just off Main Street, and the market runs year round rather than seasonally. Entry and browsing are free, and stallholders deal in cash.

Getting there

Carrick-on-Suir sits on the Waterford to Clonmel road, close to the Tipperary and Waterford county boundary, with Bus Eireann services connecting it to Clonmel and Waterford city. The Heritage Centre is on Main Street in the town centre, within easy walking distance of the town’s car parks.

While you’re in Carrick-on-Suir

The Heritage Centre itself, housed in a former Protestant church, is worth a look before or after the market, and the town’s Ormond Castle, Ireland’s only surviving Elizabethan manor house, is close by. There is more to see in Carrick-on-Suir and across Co. Tipperary.
