    Hey everyone, I'll be driving to 091 Labs in Galway next week. I know it's located on Raleigh Row and Google Maps isn't proving to be that helpful and I don't know that side of Galway at all. The landmarks on the map seem to be NUIG and Eyre Square so does anyone know how to get to it from those places? Thanks in advance!

    Its not on the main road, its behind the crescent and to the side of st mary's rd.
    I found a good map on daft(usually good for property maps) showing Roxborough Court on Raleigh Row, if you can find that, you can see it from all angles. Hope it helps.

    Heading West, St Mary's College on your right, Raleigh Row is first on your left.

    If you find yourself in Nile Lodge, you have missed it.

    Here's what I would do if driving from Eyre Square:

    Go down Merchants rd, and across Wolfe Tone Bridge.

    Follow the main road: you will go past the Fire station (on the left), Fr Griffin Park (on the right), Galway Technical Institute (on the left), and SuperValu (on the left).

    Just after SuperValu, there are traffic lights. At them, turn right, into The Crescent.

    Follow the main road to the next set of traffic lights. At them, turn right into (University Rd? The names doesn't matter, there are no signs :-) )

    Then take the first right - it's a small road, called Palmyra Ave. And it turns into Raleigh Row after a bit. The whole road is one-way, so find yourself somewhere to park sooner rather than later. (I have no idea where exactly 091 labs is in the road.)

    There are other ways to do it. That's just what I'd do if driving. Walking is easier :-)

    If you are at nuig continue along the Newcastle road towards salthilll - university hospital will be on your right. Keep going forward, the road becomes St Mary's Road. You'll see a vets on your left (and a big school, St Mary's School) on your right. Turn left immediately at the vets and that road is palmyra which turns into Raleigh row. Parking is on street so bring coins for the meters. I walk along the road every day and have never spotted 091 labs so I'd advise you to phone ahead to get idea what you are looking for. I'll be on that road again Monday so if I spot it I'll post back here.

    According to their map they are just behind the crane bar. Do you know where that is?

    OP have you been in contact with 091Labs? I thought they were at a new location? Just check with them to confirm.

    Thanks guys, I was actually given this address by one of the people associated with 091 Labs
    https://www.google.ie/maps/place/091+Labs/@53.2700074,-9.0652896,16.28z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x485b96e6178b2f7b:0xafc22272112971f!8m2!3d53.2700756!4d-9.0618207

    It seems to be just an office space and it doesn't actually seem to say '091 Labs' anywhere on the photo of it

    I suggest going around by the docks to avoid any head on collisions!!!

    Walked the length of Raleigh row this morning and there is no obvious indication of the 091 labs. It could be in one of the houses with no sign on door though.

    It was opposite the Jes Primary, in the apartment block between the gates to the secondary school. The pin Lollipop95 posted is exactly where it was/is?
