TCDSU Shop

Pick up a free University Times, charge your mobile at the ATM, or shell out for forgotten toiletries, gifts and snacks needed to get by in style while at Trinners.
There’s little artifice to the tiny shop, as it is the space is crammed into ground-​floor digs just off a stairwell in House 6 (a second location in Hamilton Building serves up similer stuff). Shirts, sweats and posters hang high from the walls, making just enough room for the counter, mag rack and till on the ground.
While there’s lots of places to buy your TCD hoodie, none feel as genuine as the Student Union shop.

Trinity College Dublin Student Union runs this shop to be found just behind Front Arch as if you were coming from the main street into the campus of Trinity College. This shop is primarily there to provide students with the necessary products they require and in the long term to enhance the Student Union’s profits to subsidize extra activities within the college. Like the students, tourists and other visitors to the college are hereby endowed with all the needed items they may require during their visit including confectionary, crisps, hot (via the self-​service tea and coffee machine) and cold drinks, newspapers, cigarettes, magazines, fresh croissants and doughnuts, mobile phone credit, personal hygiene products, sanitary products, stamps, postcards, envelopes, stationery as well as a small selection of Trinity merchandise that can also be found within the official Library shop such as hoodies’s, mugs and pens laden with the Trinity crest as well as TCD Graduate Teddy Bears (€ 11.95). The shop is excellent for providing you with those pernickety yet essential items when you are on a day’s jaunt around college. Located, very opportunely just tucked inside the north face of Front Square as you walk out of Front Arch this shop is a god send when you need to either buy something as soon as you enter the college to be able to make use of it during your stay on campus or otherwise be able to handily pick something up in this quiet setting before you head out back through Front Arch and on to the frenzied Dublin streets. A practical and convenient shop that is seldom busy but always unfailing in providing you with that elusive yet necessary item.
