Having swapped laws books for chef knives, Patrick now spends his days returning bread to its rightful place as King of the table. He has worked throughout Ireland, Australia and the UK, but eventually returned home and set up the Firehouse Bakery despite the recession at that time. His message was simple: “bread is king” – he wanted everyone to have good bread all the time; not just good bread, but bread that is good for you, and he will even show you how to make your own.
5 years after the opening of Firehouse Bakery, it has expanded from strength to strength. It’s an award-winning bakery and cafe in Delgany Wicklow with an open plan bakery, a bustling cafe and wood fired oven. Patrick’s bread can also be found in cafes and restaurants throughout Dublin, plus his Bread School on Heir Island is always fully booked!
Patrick is also a founding member of RealBread Ireland and Failte Ireland Food Champion, with plans for new exciting projects.
What Makes Irish Butter So Special?

What makes Irish butter so special?
Are you the kind of person who hates ripped toast? Cold, second-rate butter can make for a disappointing experience when trying to spread it onto your favorite slice of bread. But have you ever tried Irish butter? This creamy treat is renowned for its superior flavor and texture that far surpasses regular American butter. That’s because European butter contains about 82 percent fat, while regular American brands contain only 80 percent. So what is the secret behind Irish butter’s unique taste and mouthfeel? It all comes down to one key difference: the milk used in production.
