    I feel like some detective in a movie.

    This O'Hare butchers is all over google. Apparently his shop is in Bishopstown somewhere. One website said it's in Bishopstown shopping centre but I couldn't find anything. I parked up my car yesterday and walked alone around the area in the dreary evening light as locals looked at me with suspicion. I asked people about this O'Hares place but nobody ever heard of him. One lady over-heard me mention the name, and with a look of horror she whisked her kids into the car and sped off... (ok that part was a lie).

    Anybody ever hear of this shop?

    You want to give us a link to one of the pages all over google? Might be easier.

    It used to be in the small shopping centre by Dunne's on Curraheen Road (not the big Bandon Road Dunnes). However it was closed down the last time I was there, at least a year ago.
    Pity, it was pretty good from what I remember. They also seemed to specialise in halal meat. Maybe they moved somewhere else?

    Yeah the reason I wanted to check it out is because according to the google searches they sold some exotic Indian stuff too. I know there are a few halal/spice shops in the city center but I just wanted to check this one out.

    Oh well ...

    OP, what specifically, are you after?
    Maybe we can direct you to another source.

    Just wanted to have a look is all. Maybe buy a bit of mince and a few spices. Nothing specific! I can get all that stuff in town anyway.

    Phone number not working. Tried it already. I told you it's like a mystery thriller movie. A really boring one.

    You can't find it, locals can't help you and the phone number is disconnected... I think it's safe to say they've closed down.

    Yeah I know that. There's a post up there from hours ago saying it.

    His brother owns the maxol garage on the glasheen rd and another garage down by silversprings. Pop in and find out if his meat is available anywhere else. He could be working from another shop.
