I recently purchased two sweaters from Irish Design. They didn't have my size so they ordered them much to my surprise & great appreciation, they just arrived in fewer than 24 hours! Thank you to your helpful, friendly staff. Highly recommend your beautiful store in NOTL!

This is a "must do" every time we come to Niagara-on-the-Lake. It really gives you the feel as though you're walking into a piece of Ireland.

Wonderful local store! The staff were so very helpful, we stayed over an hour and bought many unique items, including a sweater, hats, jackets & coats etc. The quality and workmanship are really top notch! We will be back even though it is hundreds of miles away.

Our Story

From the owners, Paul & Maureen Dickson
Located in the beautiful town of Niagara On The Lake, Ontario, we've been specializing in collections of authentic Irish knits & country-chic outerwear since we immigrated from Ireland to Ontario 37 years ago. We started small, near the clock tower on Queen Street and then took over the units on either side. Eighteen wonderful years were spent at that location and it's where we were able to cement our business in the fabulous town that is NOTL! In 2006 we found ourselves lucky enough to have outgrown our original location. We decided to expand our square footage again and moved across the street to build the larger shop we are at now, right beside the renowned Shaw Festival Royal George Theatre. It is here that our business has really flourished and with the same staff we started with, we are lucky to have become one small business family. We hope you enjoy our collections online and please feel free to come visit us at 75 Queen Street!
