Nutgrove Shopping Centre

Nutgrove Shopping Centre is one of two shopping centres located in Rathfarnham, a southern suburb of Dublin.[1] The centre was built on part of the old Lamb's Jam orchards.

The first drive-through restaurant (a McDonald's drive-through called McDrive) at the center opened in 1985, it was the first drive through in Ireland and one of the first in Europe.[2] The centre was also the site of an experiment, with Ireland's first social welfare services office within a shopping centre sited here.[citation needed]

The centre has nearly 1,000 free surface car parking spaces, 70 shops, 5 restaurants and a food court.[citation needed]

Nutgrove Shopping Centre is directly served by bus routes S6 & 161 by Go-Ahead Ireland and nearby by route 14 by Dublin Bus
