Spar is similar to Tesco and M&S, but slightly more expensive (and not really worth the…read moredifference). However, whenever I travel internationally, I always look forward to trying new snacks that are not available in the United States. So I did find some Doritos flavors at Spar that i hadn't seen anywhere else during my time in Dublin. It's a fully stocked store with an array of items from chips, candy, and cookies to an assortment of grab&go sandwiches and instant ramen. This location is nestled on the corner of a busy, crowded street. No self-checkout. You have to pay at the register. The customer service was a bit lackluster.

Spar is basically like a quickie mart…read more This is a great place to load up on snacks and beverages if you need them. We hit the Spar to have stuff in our hotel room, for when we get hungry between meals. And the Spar did just that! They also sell random things that you might run out of on your trip. Great spot to replenish your essentials! You can't beat the open 24 hours convenience!

They recently did the place up and expanded into the premises next door; now they have a shiny new deli and a comfy sit-down/cafe area. My only real issue with this place is that I have gone in there a number of times looking for something only to find that they have run out or just don't stock it. For example. they sell hotdogs but they don't stock hotdog buns at all.

I pop in here most days, so it's mad that I haven't reviewed it yet!…read more Staff are pleasant, they do lots of special offers, but a lot of their produce is more expensive than Tesco or Lidl. Their deli is very impressive, their wraps, sandwiches, salads are very fresh and good value. They also make fresh pizzas, but I haven't tried them yet. They have an ATM at the back of the store, but this is often out of service, but there is an outdoor ATM just up the road a little (a minute's walk or less). They've got groceries, off-license, newspapers/magazines, lottery, almost anything you could want, but I wouldn't do a full weekly shop here! They are open 24 hours, which adds a star for me!

Very rarely I like giving two stars but let's say this is a 2+ rating. Those who have been to…read moreTesco know the store , this one you walk in and a security guard is sitting there scanning ccv I guess for thief , maybe a visual to stop thief but those , the majority of us, who don't steal little concerning if the store is safe. The lay out is confusing but generally found what we needed. If looking for fruit here little short on stock , and again lay out is confusing and some items not even in stock. But will say the staff at the self check out were helpful. So keep this review short as it is what it is. Would go again as the location on temple street is nice , but wish other options

See, when I go to a Spar, it is for the essentials... you know, chocolate, skittles, a cream bun or…read morepossibly some cola...all of which I believe cover the major food groups. So imagine how nonplussed I was to be greeted with row upon row of healthy offerings, things with seeds or made from freeze dried fruit and seaweed. This is not what short, fat balding men crave. Happily, just beyond the healthy stuff, is the usual array of goodies and even some fresh baked stuff. This is exactly the sort of thing your average short, fat and balding man craves. Skittles in hand, I leave, only a little shaken by the thought of healthy offerings. Q's belt, again, starts to cry

Prices could be better but they're standard for a Spar and the sandwiches are good. Insomnia is a nice addition. Otherwise, smallish selection of foods but enough for any emergency that crops up or to whip up a quick meal if you don't fancy the trip up to the massive Dunnes in Cornelscourt.

On the outside the shop looks like it has been there for years and has that chaotic and bedraggled look of a place that has simply evolved into what it is through eons of additions. The truth is much more interesting. There has been a shop in DL for years called Alexes - the lucky lotto shop- run by a guy named John Highland. John lived and breathed the business to the degree where it was open 24 hours a day and I'll swear he was there 22 of those hours. Alexes is still there but john sold up a few years back, then missed the biz I guess because he opened this place - though he's taking it easier these days, it's only open 21 hours a day... seriously. The selection of papers and magazines is truly astonishing, as indeed it the shops owner!

I wouldn't really call it a supermarket; it's more of a glorified convenience store. They have pretty much all the basics, but they wouldn't have as much stock as a major supermarket.

Take your time browsing the online supermarket and then pick your delivery time. The delivery service charge fluctuates anywhere between 3 and 6 euro - not bad! And, your groceries can be delivered within a day and down to a two-hour window of time. Everything is at your fingertips - from exfoliating facial scrubs to a jar of jalapenos. You'll find stuff that can't be bought at your corner convenience store. Lose the shopping cart! Let your fingers do the walking and put your money where your mouth is ... until delivery time!

Tesco Online--Personal Experience:…read more Once you've registered, the online store is very easy to use. Products have clear (if occasionally optimistic) pictures and good info. Discounts/multibuys etc are marked. Product categories are well organized and the site is easy to navigate. There are a good range of delivery times and prices. Off peak times are a LOT cheaper. I've found deliveries to be on time about 7 out of 10 times. What is annoying is that a delivery can be up to an hour late without any contact from the store (in fact, if you check the order number on the website, it reads 'delivered' even though it hasn't been). That said, if you call their helpline about a late order, they are very good about getting in touch with the driver and letting you know what happened/how long it will be. If they're out of a product, they'll substitute another (you get the cheaper price if the substituted item was more expensive). Mostly, the substitutions are spot on, but you can opt for 'no substitutions' on an item if you are leery (I do this on pet food as they tend to get substitutions wrong...no my kitten does not think that 'adult tuna' food is as good as 'baby cat chicken'...and in all fairness, Tesco aren't psychic so 'no substitutions' it is). The delivery drivers are an odd bunch. They're all really helpful if you have questions and very good about carrying deliveries indoors etc. Some are sociable, say 'hello', smile and have a quick chat. Others grunt once and get the job over with. Occasionally one stares at you with a look that says "I hate you for buying bulk cat litter but I'm not allowed to say it". I prefer the friendly ones, it's a little weird to have someone in your home who doesn't even say hello, just marches in the door and past you. Overall, it's an excellent service. I used it once and was sold. Now I use it every couple of weeks for bulky/heavy items or a big shop. Definitely worth a try.
