There was no boycott. We generally bought our meat with Morans but moved to Coffeys because parking was much handier and it was also within easy walking distance.

Pity because they had good quality meat.

It wasnt the best time to open a business in Sallins, with one well established butcher and the meat counter in Supervalue.

I was only saying what I have been told from one of the guys that did deliveries to coffey so it came from him its not hearsay or untrue

gsxr1

he must have lost everything doing that.

Hard luck fella..

I dont know if it's the same guy, but there's a Coffeys Butcher long established in Kilmeague. His Sausages are pretty decent, I call in once a month and spend about €75 on meat. I got some fillet off him last day and it was outstanding, his southern fried chicken goujons are excellent quality also, I always have two bags in the freezer for finger food, although they are large enough pure chicken fillet. I personally love his White Pudding, he does two, a spicy one and a more traditional one, but both are fantastic, a quick mention also to the tortillas he makes up, great for a midweek slightly different dinner. And just to top it, a free bag of spuds with every €20 spent! I do recommend him

From from I hear from the chap (my father knows him pretty well) I dont think Coffeys closed because he was being boycotted... Im not going to post the actual reason why he said he shut his Sallins shop because frankly its noones business but that to me sounds like a load of rubbish.

His shop in Kilmeague is absolutely excellent btw. Excellent range, good quality, and friendly staff. One of the better local butchers you will ever find.

Back to the original topic, Ive always been a big fan of Kearns jumbo sausages, which I believe you can get in Supervalu in Sallins amongst other places (used to sell them in Eurospar in Naas when I worked there but Im not sure if they still do). Nice and spicy; cant beat them in a fry on a Sunday morning!

So it is the same guy then!
Ah dont really go for that speculation stuff. There are far more people in Sallins now that are not native to Sallins, so they'll only see another Butchers as competition and good for the area, as I did! As said before, he's a good Butcher, and they are always exceptionally friendly!

djimi

Yeah its the same guy. And I agree that speculation sounds rubbish; Morans is okay but it isnt that special that people would boycott other shops for it, and like you said the majority of residents of Sallins these days are not locals and will have no loyalty towards a shop, not to that extent anyway and certainly not to the extent of causing another shop to close because of boycotting...
