An Authentic Italian Experience

Our passion is simple: to bring the true taste of Italy to Northern Ireland.

Every product we offer has been carefully chosen for its quality and authenticity. We work with trusted suppliers and independent producers across Italy to ensure that every visit to our stall is a genuine Italian food experience.

Browse our delicious selection of traditional Italian cheeses and cured meats, perfect for creating an authentic antipasto platter or elevating your favourite recipes. Discover our range of premium extra virgin olive oils, fragrant herbs and spices, and authentic Italian pantry essentials that bring real Italian flavour into your kitchen.

You'll also find a selection of refreshing Italian soft drinks, ideal for enjoying alongside your favourite Italian dishes or simply as a taste of home.

Our Famous Arancini

If there's one thing you simply have to try when visiting us, it's our homemade arancini.

Originating from Sicily, arancini are one of Italy's most loved street foods. These delicious golden rice balls are made with creamy risotto, filled with flavourful ingredients, coated in crispy breadcrumbs, and cooked until perfectly golden. The result is a crunchy exterior with a warm, creamy centre that's bursting with authentic Italian flavour.

We offer a variety of freshly prepared fillings to suit every taste:

• Classic Ragù – slow-cooked beef in a rich tomato sauce with melted mozzarella.

• Carbonara – inspired by the famous Roman recipe, with a rich and creamy filling.

• Vegetarian – packed with delicious vegetables and Italian cheeses.

• 'Nduja – featuring Calabria's famous spicy, spreadable sausage, balanced with creamy cheese for a bold and unforgettable flavour.

Whether you're already an arancini fan or tasting them for the first time, they're the perfect way to experience authentic Italian street food. It's no surprise they're one of our customers' favourite treats!

More Than Just a Market Stall

One of the things we love most about St George's Market is the people.

Every weekend, we welcome familiar faces returning for their favourite Italian products, visitors discovering authentic Italian cuisine for the first time, and families looking for something delicious to enjoy together.

For us, it's about more than selling food. It's about sharing recipes, introducing customers to regional Italian specialities, and celebrating the traditions that make Italian cuisine so special.
