A Late Addition to 2011’s Good News Stories

For those of you who haven't graced Rathmines with your presence in the last week, you will have missed The Hopsack's little shop of all things healthy doing a changing rooms/grand designs/wonderwoman costume change moment. But we didn't just get to pop into a phonebox and spin around a few times to put on our new Super 'sack – instead the whole shop moved lock, stock and ancient brewing barrel across to a temporary location and for seventeen painful days we forced you guys to find our brazil nuts hidden underneath bottles of probiotics and you all coped admirably and kept us sane with your "…well it'll be worth it in the end, won't it" comments. Then it was our turn to rise to the challenge and in true underpants over trousers style we dashed like headless vegetarian chickens with our tens of thousands of products to our old/new superhome; and on Friday 16th December at 11.15AM The Hopsack re-opened its shutters to the wide-eyed and slightly bewildered public. For those of you from the MTV generation it was a bit like a messy episode of Cribs, all wireless networks and showy lighting. With all our new space we couldn't resist wedging in a few new ideas – so we can proudly announce that we now stock a great big range of organic fruit and veggies (no brussel sprouts left at this stage, sorry!), and we have a super wholefood deli and salad bar from which you can easily refuel with super tasty soups, spring rolls, samousas, pizza slices, and a great range of salad options.  You can enjoy a beautiful organic coffee (Peruvian single origin) from our shiny espresso machine (a Faema Rocket for aficionados of the coffee world), or one of the range of Solaris Botanical Teas!  Better still you can now enjoy all of our tasty new fresh food and drink options at our little coffee table in the window! From January we will have our therapy room up and running and we will also announce the arrival of our juice and smoothie menu in the next few days.  So 2012 is looking like an exciting prospect – and we have lots more planned so stay tuned to keep up with all the goings on as things unfold over the coming months! From all the Murray family and all our fantastic team at The Hopsack we wish you the very best this Christmas and for the New Year!
