Whether you're looking for lunch on-the-go, searching for the perfect gift for a loved one or simply looking to pass away some time on a Saturday afternoon, strolling around a local market is sure to do the trick. Thankfully here in Dublin, there's no shortage of local food and craft markets to explore on a lazy weekend, and we're particularly spoiled for choice during the summer when more and more parks welcome new and exciting local businesses.
