The Butler’s Pantry, 100 per cent Irish-owned and producing consistently delicious food since 1987, is as much a part of an Irish Christmas as any other tradition. From its pretty shopfronts, windows bristling with twinkly lights and beautifully packaged goods, to a sense of plenty and a very warm welcome once you step inside the door, The Butler’s Pantry embodies all that is good about Christmas. Its ethos has remained unchanged for over 30 years – quality, excellence and community are at the heart of every single one of its ten stores.

MORE DELICIOUS CHOICE THAN EVER

And now you don’t have to live close to one of those stores to enjoy a Butler’s Pantry Christmas – it can be ordered online for collection or delivered to your door, nationwide. And it’s not only the excellent hand-baked breads, delicious award-winning cakes and desserts, premium ready-made meals created and cooked by a team of talented chefs with the finest Irish produce, luxurious artisan products and selection of boutique wines that customers enjoy year ‘round … at Christmas, The Butler’s Pantry offering is even greater and more special, with a seasonal menu that is not only super-premium and perfectly delicious, but takes the hassle out of hosting, with style and panache.

NO-HASSLE HOSTING

Are you having the entire family? Excited but a bit anxious about Getting It All Done? The Butler’s Pantry can provide a stress-free gourmet four-course Christmas feast. The best quality Irish meats, unique seasonal dishes, a choice of spectacular desserts and Festive Yule Logs (now a firm favourite among those in the know), not to mention Christmas cakes and puddings, means you can concentrate on other preparations – and enjoy the occasion yourself – knowing the menu is under control. This delicious Christmas dinner and seasonal food, from turkey to ham, to vegetarian options, and wonderful sides and extras, can be ordered in your local store or online for collection or delivery nationwide during Christmas week. As well as Christmas dinner itself, you can order from the extensive menu to cover drinks and supper parties too, from canapes to cold buffet options, or a batch of fresh mince pies to have with some bubbles. Staff at all stores will be delighted to help you choose, to create a memorable menu that suits you.
