Inflation-busting eating-out is on the menu at Dublin’s ILAC Centre, where anyone with an appetite for great value has a feast of affordable food choices.
With the recent opening of The Natural Bakery and Krispy Kreme, there are now twenty great places to eat in the ILAC, for breakfast, lunch, dinner, a quick grab and go, or just a catch-up with friends over coffee.
Shoppers can now check-out the home of the freshly baked breads and pastries at The Natural Bakery, where everything is made fresh daily.
Whether snacking or dining-out, the variety of food outlets in the ILAC, mostly at ground floor level, means the Centre has something for everyone, says Centre Manager, Billy Reid.
“Our food offering is the widest in town, in a single destination. It’s all really handy at ground level, especially for families, and there’s easy parking. We have soup and a salad, burgers, coffee and pastries, carvery dinner, Asian flavours or tasty pizza; literally something to suit everyone”.
As well as regular meal deals, many of the ILAC food outlets have launched new festive menus.
For all day dining, shoppers can revive at Shake Dog in the ILAC’s Central Square, an American-style restaurant, known as the finer diner. Silver Leaf in the Parnell Mall is ideal for traditional culinary favourites, from fish & chips to beef dinners.
Chopsticks in the Moore Mall and Ginzeng in the Parnell Mall are great for Asian dining, while Sbarro Pizza is an Italian pizzeria in Central Square.
And, if only a Big Mac or a Whopper will do, the Parnell Mall has both McDonalds and Burger King restaurants for great-tasting burgers, succulent meat-free options, and handy kids’ meals.
