    Isn't it on Barrack Street? Kind of gives it away really :D What's the mystery? It's hard to miss the place.

    No, KBarry, it's on the Point Road - around the corner from Coes Road - as shown by the map that the lovely testicle pointed to above :)

    Tramp of a place to drive to being honest i would recommend going down Coes road if your not local and taking the left at the bottom of that road and then it is on your left.

    Other than that your going to have to go up to the lights turn left, then right and meet the lights again. Cross the road you got off keep left and drive down the road. i drew a map look at it (the red way is the way i hate when i am going to Spar to get my roll)

    I recommend taking the green route!

    If you are coming from Dublin, Take Dundalk south exit, Pass the Crown Plaza (ya can't miss it 13 stories) Then straight through two round abouts and the map picks it up from the second round about

    Gee you must walk slow! Its about 2 miles max (1 mile from the General Post Office). Half hour max of a walk. A taxi from the railway station will not break the bank.
