George's Street Arcade

love it :D

I love it too.

I love the George's Street Arcade. Here you've got everything Dublin that is not High Street. Bric-a-brac, 2nd-hand-clothing and small designer shops, a great hairdresser (Ozlo), bookshops, Japanese Manga-merchandise, great food for nippling on the go, and last but not least a cafe full of Brazilian waitresses that was featured in "Once". The only drawback is it's actual size - I'd love to spend more time here, but it will not entertain you longer than an hour or two.

From George’s street Arcade to the back of Grafton Street you’ll find the independent shopping area of Dublin. The best bite to eat in town is in a tiny place inside the Arcade (can’t remember the name) and afterwards something sweet from the cupcake stand and something cute the nicest looking flower shop I’ve seen. It’s very Dublin but yet would fit in to any trendy area in a European Capital! Check it out

so many shops in such a great space. trade gossip, cups of coffee, get some olives or shoes or a haircut, you could get most of what you need form this classic and beautiful arcade.

A cracking little parade of shops - especially if you’re into alternative gear. Offbeat indie boutiques rub shoulders with collections of vinyl records, foreign books, quirky fridge magnets and…well just about everything you can think off, really!

There’s some bargains to be caught, as well as more high end shops mingled amongst (and even if you’re broke it makes some top window shopping). You can grab some decent food on a budget while you’re at it.

Though most shoppers come to Dublin for Grafton Street, personally I always take visitors here - to me, its these one-off arcades with unique shops that make cities what they are, rather than identical high streets packed with chain stores.

The perfect place to kill an hour. The only place I can think of that manages to cram false eyelashes complete with orange feathers and antique coins under one roof. Everytime I come here I see something new and different and there are lots of tasty nibbles to be had here too.

It’s the most bizarre mix of price ranges and products, expensive boutiques are next to cheap and cheerful piercing establishments.

George’s Arcade is a nice little Arcade. It has many stalls that are quirky but sometimes overpriced. They have nice shops also that you would not find anywhere else and nice food stall which are my favourite. A nice way to spend your lunchhour or a quiet Sunday afternoon.

located on georges street this market is quirky and fun. its the perfect place to buy those unique and different things.
There are alot of different shops in the arcade there are vintage clothes shops and places to buy fancy coffee beans and also hat shops and stalls selling wacky and cute things. the prices from shop to shop anr extreamly different and some shops can be very dear, but overall i think this place is worth a look, its my favourite place to shop for unique gifts!

I’ve got quite the soft spot for this little slip of an arcade, hence the 5 star rating. It’s the perfect cut through to Georges street, a little food, a little hairdressing, a little clothing, a little gift shopping and you will emerge out the other side looking and feeling fab, and predictably late.
The thing about it is that it’s a microcosm of Dublin, for me. All types are squished into the one space, and within the foundations is a community as in each others pockets as possible. You have to admit that it is nice to be able to call over to the nearest stall and ask them to keep an eye on things while you nip to the bathroom. Beautiful old architecture, a big mash up of shops and stalls, complete with friendly faces. Really it is a great place to hide from the rain and catch all the gossip, keep in mind when you’re blabbing that about a quarter of the city pass through here daily!

I love this place, it is not very well known and tends to be quiet. The shops are small and contain all sorts of treasures, from second hand CDs to jewellery to handmade bags. If you prefer something a little different, then this is the place for you. Prices vary, though in general the CD’s and books are good value; clothes are more expensive.

Georges Street Arcade is one of the best little shopping places in dublin, despite its small apperance, it has got a whole lot of great shops in here. There is a complete variety of things from jewllery shops and health food shops to a hairdressers and a body piercing shop! The piercing shop is my favorite, it is so cheap to get anything pierced! To get your ears pierced is €9! And they do a brilliant job, she staff is lovely too. The little boutiques are amazing too, like retro, my favorite! And if all the shopping is making you hungry there is the best chipper located in here too! What dont they have?! :)

A really lovely and rather underused nook in a generally ugly quarter of generally ugly Dublin. Everything here is overpriced, but that’s ok, because its not the kind of stuff anyone over the age of fourteen will want to buy anyway, but it’s undeniably pleasant to walk through and browse. THere are some really great fashion outlets here, and dont forget to stop in to the market bar, hidden behind, for some wine and tapas at a great price.

This is a little gem of a place , everything that you think thought Dublin would be like is in here - lots of brick a brack shops to really high end fashion places that you would normally see on Bond st, there is a great little buzz about the place and the staff in all the shops generally know alot about the surrounding area.

The best shops to go into on the arcade is New Moon jewellery Shop and Lowkey.
