Welcome to Hick's! September in Farmleigh House. Every Sunday 10.00-17.00 See us there
The Hick family first came to Dublin in 1919, when three brothers Eddie, John and Henry left Berwick-on-Tweed on the Scottish Border. Their father, was born in Germany and started his apprenticeship circa 1878.
Since then, the family have become synonymous with pork in the Capital, and 91 years later still continue to meet our customers' needs. Based here in Rear 15A, Georges St Upper, Dun Laoghaire since 1985, Bren & Ed have recently opened up our factory shop, selling all pork and bacon produce direct to the public at wholesale prices. Everything from a half lb of breakfast sausages to a half side of pork!
