    good question. i had to say liffey valley even though dundrum is my local.
    value vs quality.... knackers vs snobs :D

    I was in dundrum one day and this women with a pram gave me a big "tut" because i was in her way. Maybe she was in my way!

    Dundrum is my favourite, being local also helps :pac:

    St Georges Arcade

    Cheap books, cds/records, funky clothes. What more could you need?

    blanch just because everythings together.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 41,021 ✭✭✭✭Xavi6


    Lol Liffey Valley is the biggest waste of space ever built. There's feck all in it!

    Blanch ftw.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,445 ✭✭✭✭Creamy Goodness


    whichever one allows me to get in, get out and get a starbucks in the quickest time usually does it for me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,216 ✭✭✭ironictoaster


    The local indeed, Blanchardstown SC.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 101 ✭✭lilly07


    Dundrum... you cant beat it, you have every thing from pennys to BT2... i love it and the cinema and pizza hut is so good

    I have to say dundrum

    Nutgrove is the biggest kip in dublin... has absolutely nothing in it
    Dundrum has a fairly good mix of cheap ... to expensive shops.

    I think its really only missing a Miss Selfridge and New Look would do very well also

    Which is your favourite shopping centre...


    Good thread by the way :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 522 ✭✭✭Sugar Drunk


    blanch as it has a great mix of everything and i love the Mahoosive penneys there :) oh, and becasue they have uci cinema which does butter popcorn mmmmmm

    i also like the square as its near work and they have a nice big new look and boots so its handy for a quick shop at lunch

    Liffey valley drives me mad I cant fathom the design of it at all it takes an eternity to get from one end to the other especially when its packed and your people dodging all the way


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,220 ✭✭✭✭Loopy


    Its between liffey valley and Blanchardstown.... Lif Val should have a penneys..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 622 ✭✭✭Solarball10


    I like Stephen's Green, also Jervis and Ilac. I don't see what the fuss is about in Dundrum, there ain't that many shops! and most of em are really expensive apart from Penney's and Bershka!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers


    if Liffey Valley had a Penneys it'd win hands down, mostly because it's only 5 minutes away from me :pac: and it's well laid out

    but Blanch gets it for buttered popcorn, the giant Penneys and it's a nice open space.
    badly laid out though, it's all really random!

    Nutgrove isn't too bad if you're looking for groceries. I used to work there part time for a few years.

    I like Dundrum best. I live beside it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 936 ✭✭✭marshmallow


    If I lived closer to Dundrum, it would probably win but I don't frequent it. I have to say I like Jervis - mainly for Topshop but it's the most frequented one for me! Possibly Stephen's Green but I think it's pretty crappy!

    Good idea for thread alright, dont think it's been done before!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭Mrs_Doyle


    I love Blanchardstown Shopping Centre, I just wish it had a New Look!

    If I had to pick I'd probably say Blanchardstown. Liffey Valley is nearest, but as was mentioned it's a total waste of space. I'd only go there for the Boots or Cinema, if I was stuck.

    I prefer to go to town to do my shopping if I need to, usually easier to avoid annoying twats, go in early, get what I need and head home again.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 348 ✭✭KatiexKOUTURE--


    Blanch for me... I hate dundrum, was there once and the little half floors really annoy me...

    In blanch you know where everything is and it's big enough that you have everything you want but small enough that you don't feel like it's a massive trek to the other side of it...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,195 ✭✭✭Corruptedmorals


    Liffey Valley for the close-ness, but Blanch has the Penneys..

    Also like Stephens Green because it's so pretty..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,327 ✭✭✭pretty*monster


    Dundrum's where I'd go if I had to but I prefer shopping in the City Centre.

    Dundrum for me, it's got a great selection of shops.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 26 Lilly87


    I like Liffey Valley and Blanch but Dundrum wins it for me. Its my second home !!

    I worked in Dundrum shopping centre for a few months and I think it is really nice and really sophisticated. The only thing i'd say is that when it is packed you can hardly breathe in the place !!

    It could also do with a stand alone Topshop and a New Look. Love the cinema and good choice of restaurants too !!
