New Ways to Connect and Shop

Mar 18, 2020

Yesterday was St. Patrick’s Day, and it was not the typical raucous celebration. For starters, all the pubs were closed (locally and in Ireland). These are unusual times we are living in right now. We are all trying to process the new information we receive daily.

Staying Connected While Keeping Distance

Donegal Square’s first priority is the safety and well-being of our customers and our employees. We are taking COVID-19 seriously, while also doing what is needed to keep the business going. Our retail store is temporarily closed but our friends and customers can still connect with us.

You can visit our online store at donegalsquare.com/shop. For the next few weeks, we are offering complimentary shipping and adding more items to our online store. Don’t see what you’re looking for? Simply call us at (610) 866-3244. We would be happy to process your order and prepare your packages for curbside pickup or shipping.

A New Way to Shop

Donegal Square is excited to launch a virtual/FaceTime shopping program. Call (610) 866-3244 if you would like to make an appointment for a virtual personal shopping session. You can ask questions and get an up-close view of products and gift ideas. Coming soon: an online form to book your virtual shopping session!

If you have any questions, concerns, or require anything at all, please call us at (610) 866-3244 or email info@donegal.com. Although our retail store is temporarily closed, we have a small team working behind the scenes. Someone will be here to take your call Monday to Friday 10AM-5PM and Sunday 12-4PM.

We are in this Together

Neville, Marie, Beth, Ann and the entire Donegal Square family wish everyone patience, understanding, and good health during these unprecedented times. We want to make sure we keep supporting each other like the great community we are. Donegal Square has been here for 35 years. This may be a bump in the road, but we have no plans to go anywhere!

Stay safe. With compassion and concern for others, we stand together.

Hey, I'm Neville,
The founder and great manifester behind Donegal Square.

Plan your visit

At age 11, I sold a farmer’s wife a bra in the Ladies Dress Shop that my Mum ran in Lisburn, Northern Ireland. So began my entrepreneurial adventure. Fairly early on I knew a career involving entrepreneurship, sales, and being around people was in the cards for me.  

Growing up in Lambeg, a small village eight miles from Belfast, I was reared partly by my Granny McCarthy while my Mum went to work. My Mum and Dad had gone to work early in life with no opportunity for advanced education because of their family circumstances and the outbreak of World War II. Even though my parents didn’t have an abundance of money, there was always food on the table. Great breads, scones and baked goods were always part of my upbringing.

Sports have always been a huge part of my life, and because of my love for them I managed to get a Grammar School Education by receiving a scholarship (which also enabled me to participate in all the sports I enjoyed). When I first came to the USA to live, following a trans-Atlantic field hockey romance, I was drawn to the idea of importing the things from Ireland and the UK that I missed the most. Following a period of experimenting with importing tweeds and knitwear for wholesale, I realized there was potential for a business in the Lehigh Valley. The ultimate goal for my wife and I (I married a local woman, Linda Shay, the same woman from the trans-Atlantic field hockey romance back in 1978) was to create a comfortable, friendly, warm atmosphere with a rich cultural experience — as if you were visiting Ireland.
