    I'm Failing to see how this is bad for Temple Bar/ruins the area :confused:

    Its not big, it doesn't stick out, its in a great location. Very welcomed as I live in the area and the SuperValu down on the quays is awful.

    Its nice, bright and airy, unlike the Jervis one which is a bit depressing. Dunnes on Georges Street is rubbish and as you say supervalu on Aston Quay is probably the most depressing supermarket in Dublin, I'm delighted it was put there and I'm sure most temple bar/surrounding area residents are too,

    I presume it has an ATM in it aswell? At least there is that then, badly needed for the area. I wish there was an order to make shop fronts to blend in and be less garish though.

    They are like a virus, the whole Country will just a giant Tesco one day.

    Vote with your feet (and Euro).

    I really don't see what the attraction whit tesco is.. They are not really that good value, the brands that they stock can be limited and their own brand is sh*t when compared to dunnes, supervalu and even lidl and aldi stuff!.

    Sounds as disgraceful as any other crap on Fleet Street, modern nightclubs, burger joints and fishing tackle shops all sound about as classy as a Tescos.
    :eek:

    Rorys was there from 1959. Probably the oldest shop in temple bar, and probably the one "non tourist" shop in the whole area.
