Connemara Smokehouse

Multi-award winning, second generation, family run business since 1979. With quality at the core of everything we do, we source the finest, fresh ingredients from the wild Atlantic. Using traditional methods and all natural ingredients, we prepare the finest smoked and marinated seafood available. Our products include smoked salmon, honey roast smoked salmon, smoked tuna and smoked mackerel.
The fish are filleted by hand and are then ready for dry salting. The fish are then gently smoked using beechwood to give a beautiful, delicate flavour and texture that simply melts in your mouth.
Visit our factory shop and chat with one of the team to learn about what we do and buy some Smokehouse treats to take away.
Private tasting experiences can be organised (booking essential)
Opening hours: Monday to Friday 9am to 1pm & 2pm to 5pm.
