    I've heard tell of a Marks and Spencers in the IFSC. I need a M & S crisp fix so was going to pop over tomorrow at lunchtime, the only thing is I'm not sure where it is in the IFSC.

    I'll be coming from Pearse Street over the scary swaying pedestrian bridge by that CHQ place. Does anyone know where it is from there? I'm thinking it's closer and more convenient then Grafton Street.

    Also, it is really tiny? Does it have a good selection?

    I'm seriously craving the crisps and I'll cry if they don't have them!

    Is there an M & S in the IFSC??? Never seen it myself.

    There's an M & B in the CHQ Building.... Meadows & Byrnes, not quite the same thing though. Unless you reallly need a quick fix of home furnishings, as you do.

    Beside the NCI, National College of Ireland.
    South of Major Square
    Cross the bridge (dodge the cycling couriers speeding over the pedestrian bridge :mad:) and once you to the North quays, walk right towards the point.
    Then turn left

    It's not tiny, decent selection but loooooong queues at peak times

    I might buy a couch on a whim!

    Thanks, love the map. It might end up being almost the same distance as Grafton Street for me but I'll give it a go!

    Cheers, I've just learned something new.
    May pop in there on my way home.
    I always thought there were no supermarkets in the IFSC which would be a pain in the bum for those living there.

    The M&S is at the back of the former Excise Inn pub - just beside the AIB bank - its a small store just food and drink - but it has all the basics;)
