The English Market (Irish: An Margadh Sasanach)[1] is a municipal food market in the center of Cork city, Ireland. It stretches from Princes Street to the Grand Parade, and combines Princes Street Market and Grand Parade Market.[2] The market is regarded for both its mid-19th century architecture and locally produced artisan food.
The market has become a tourist attraction, has developed an international reputation, and has been described by chef Rick Stein as the "best covered market in the UK and Ireland".[3][4][5]
