The Food Store in Claremorris is a truly unique experience. Not only do they stock a fantastic range of top-quality food products but over 200 of these products are actually hand made in store by their expert butchers and bakers. The owner of the Food Store Niall Heffernan, is passionate about quality food and service and that passion is reflected in every member of the Food Store’s staff. Attention to detail is key and not only will you be amazed by the array of quality products on offer but the display of the products on offer is an indication of the highest standards in all aspects of the food preparation. The recognition of these products on both the national and international scene is evident by the number of awards on display in both stores. The awards span every aspect of the store from bakery, to butchery to salad bar.
There is a fantastic tradition of butchers in Niall's family dating back to the 1900s. This tradition and passion ensures that his customers taste only the finest foods in Mayo including locally reared Aberdeen Angus, which he dry ages for 14 days making it melt-in-the-mouth delicious. All the lamb in the Food Store is from local farmers and much of it fattened on Niall's own farm at Lough Na Nannagh. The traditional meats and modern skills are used in a huge selection of ready to cook lamb, pork and poultry based dishes which ensures quality product and taste for all the family. Traceability has never been an issue at the Food Store as all the meats are cooked in store and salads are freshly prepared at the salad bar.
The new state-of-the-art bakery produces a mouth-watering selection of traditional breads, yeast breads and confectionery using Claremorris free range eggs. When you also add in the organic poultry, fruit and veg, the juice and smoothie bar, you can see why a visit to the Food Store is a must for anyone with a passion for excellent food.
