Tormey’s Butchers

What you need with some of the best Wines Direct red wines is the best Westmeath beef, for they are serious about their meat here, and none more so than James Tormey’s butcher’s shop in Mullingar, where many folk argue that the beef is the very best you can buy in Ireland.

To enjoy the magnificent taste and texture of this beef is a treat, but don’t overlook all the other good things in this state-of-the-art butcher’s shop: such artistry with meat is sensational. Harbour Centre,
