Specialty Food Store

We're having an Irish/Celtic themed wedding in March and I wondered if there was somewhere in the MD/DC/NOVA area that I could purchase or order Irish food items. Specifically Irish cheeses and sausages.  If anyone knows of a specialty food store I would greatly appreciate it!

    Have you tried Whole Foods?  I know they have Irish cheeses.

    The British Pantry is the closest one I can think of.  It is between Chantilly and Middleburg.  They do have a small frozen foods section, but I suppose it's possible they would be able to order sausages in bulk for you.[url]http://www.thebritishpantry.us/home.html[/url]If you're not opposed to ordering online, I normally use Tommy Maloney's.  I've ordered English bacon from them and was impressed with the product and service.  They have an assortment of UK sausages as well.  Don't remember the iced shipping being too expensive, and you shouldn't run into too many problems with heat if you're ordering for a March wedding. [url]http://www.tommymoloneys.com/[/url]I do agree with the previous poster that standard shops should be fine for the cheese.  But it's hard to find UK sausages and bacon in the area even at Whole Foods and specialty stores.  Hope this helps!

    Eek...sorry about that terrible formatting.  Was trying to make the links clicky.

    The British Store in Clarendon sells Irish sausages. They have Irish cheeses at Whole Foods and Trader Joes. :)
