    awwwmaaahhhgaaaawwwwd I want one now. We used to get em in school as some charity thing. I'd eat like 2/3 a day. They were delicious. AFAIK you can only get them direct from supplier.

    I think Ardkeen Stores might have them, they sell the Butlers Truffles and stuff like that and have all the types of Lily O'Briens and Lindt so could be worth a look?

    They are the best chocolate ever!

    But do be careful where you get them. I once took one from the mini-bar in a hotel, and paid a fiver for it on check-out. I nearly fainted!

    Ardkeen definitely sells some Lily O'Brien products but I cannot remember if they sell the bars.

    I want one now.

    I think tesco may have those butlers ones, there is at least one place that does them but i just cant narrow it down to where, also try Centra on the quay.

    Isn't there a Butlers Chocolate Cafe opposite the Cathedral beside Boots?

    I'm pretty sure the Tourist Office on the Quay has Butlers chocolate bars.

    Its only the boxes and the flavoured blocks of chocolate in Tesco. I think there is a Butlers Irish cafe across from the Catherdral,. that of Lilly O Briens, didnt really notice, I went in for Ice cream but they dont sell it.

    They look fantastic!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,604 ✭✭✭deisemum


    That picture just reminded me that I've bought them in Londis in Ballinakill in the past. Maybe they still sell them, it might be worth a phonecall to find out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,101 ✭✭✭MitchKoobski


    Thats them! We used to call them Hope Bars in De La Salle, they'd cost you €2 but the majority of the money went to the Hope foundation.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 308 ✭✭Paige Turner


    I know its a bit of a spin for chocolate, but the Dove Hill Centre definitely do them, if you are ever passing that way. Inside the main door, turn right, just past the till. I think they are E1.50.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,472 ✭✭✭AdMMM


    Perhaps you could set up a Boards syndicate and order them by the boxload from Butlers? :p

    Was finding it hard to get them myself (white choc with berries) so sent Butlers an e-mail. They said they are only available in Tesco Poleberry which is the only place I have found them

    There's a small ould shop near Argos that sells household decorations things, lamps and the likes and beads that I saw Butlers Chocolate in.


  • Registered Users Posts: 752 ✭✭✭jayboi


    Checked the shop near argos no joy
    Checked tesco polberry no joy
    The tourist office hasnt sold anything other than a map in 3 years apparently

    Il try superquinn tomorrow, failing that il buy a box online

    On sale in city square today, those hope foundation ones milk chocolate with truffle, bit of an anti climax to be honest.
