Jervis

The Jervis Shopping Centre can be found on Henry Street, Dublin’s busiest shopping thoroughfare, which attracts 33 million people every year. Opened in 1996, Jervis welcomed some of the first British high street stores into Ireland, such as Boots chemist and Debenhams department store. A pre-existing Marks & Spencer on Mary Street was also absorbed into the shopping centre. More recent additions include the largest Forever 21 store in Europe and the largest New Look store in the world.

Don’t miss: Forever 21, three full floors of the latest fashion trends.

Post-shopping meal: A burger and fries at Rocket’s by Eddie Rockets.

The Powerscourt Centre

This historic shopping centre occupies a beautiful Georgian building just off Grafton Street, the south side’s major shopping street. Formerly a townhouse belonging to the 3rd Viscount Powerscourt and his wife – for when they visited the city from their estate in Enniskerry, County Wicklow – it now holds more than 40 shops and restaurants. A proud supporter of Irish design, The Powerscourt Centre has several boutiques by Irish fashion designers, as well as offering the best of Irish craft.

Don’t miss: Article, one of Dublin’s finest home interiors shops.

Post-shopping meal: The roast pear, bacon and Mount Callan cheddar sandwich at The Pepper Pot café – probably the best sandwich in Dublin.

The Powerscourt Centre, 59 South William Street, Dublin 2, Ireland, +353 1 679 4144

George’s Street Arcade

Located on Dublin’s South Great George’s Street, the George’s Street Arcade originally opened as South City Markets in 1881, making it the oldest shopping centre in Ireland. Today, the Victorian redbrick building houses an indoor market of around fifty tenants, with a combination of stalls and stores selling vintage clothes, accessories, books and collectibles, and more. Shopping here is a distinctively Dublin experience, and you’re sure to find a souvenir you won’t get anywhere else.

Don’t miss: New Moon, a unique store stocking high quality, handmade jewellery.

Post-shopping meal: Tapas at The Market Bar.
