SHOPPING & RETAIL
POWERSCOURT
CENTRE
Located just off Dublin’s
iconic Grafton Street, in the
heart of city, Powerscourt
Townhouse Centre offers a
thoroughly dynamic shopping
experience. Home to over 40
shops and restaurants, the
centre showcases products of
all description. This is where
you’ll find high-end fashion
and contemporary homeware,
arts and crafts and beauty
boutiques.
Occupying
an
elegant Georgian townhouse
and courtyard, the former
residence of Lord Powerscourt
gives visitors the opportunity
to browse the shops while
surrounded by architectural
splendour. Moreover, there
are hair and beauty salons,
gift shops, florists, jewellers
and several stores specialising
in unique Irish-made goods.
The greatest density of shops,
however, is reserved for
fashion, with popular chains
including French Connection,
Knightsbridge Boutique and
Jennifer Rothwell. Courtville
Antiques, for its part, sells
gorgeous Victorian or Art
Deco jewellery, while Monte
Cristo offers an abundance of
eclectic products, collectibles,
pictures and vintage clothing
among them. On the top floor,
Powerscourt Theatre – billed as
Dublin’s biggest little theatre –
gives you the chance to enjoy a
play. Drop in to see what all the
fuss is about.
