Closing down? We still have two here. One in the mall and one on Yonge Street. I LUUURVE the Mozza Burger. Drool.
And there was a time (I vaguely remember) when Chick-Fil-A's were only in malls. Now they're lots of places, but they're still closed Sunday.

I am pained to discover no root beer in Ireland.

Have you tried searching in any specialist food shops? There is a place about twenty minutes from here that sells American foods at outrageous prices. If I'm near there I'll often pop in and buy a root beer or grape soda.

Check to see if there are any oriental supermarkets near you. There was a place called Oriental City about half an hour from here, but they were meant to be closing down at the end of May. Last time I was there they were selling cases of A&W for half price. I bought 2, but the girl only rang one through the register so I got mine for 75% off.

I still have 10 cans left. If you buy a ticket on Ryanair from Dublin to Luton, I'm only ten minutes from the airport. If you hurry I might save you a can.

There is actually a new A&W opening around the corner from my house. They are just building it in one of those new superstore malls.

There is one near us that is a drive in. They wear roller skates and come up to your car to take your order. I imagine they only do that during the summer.

I aitch eight people who heart.

There hasn't been an A&W in this burg since the one across the street gave it up so long ago I can't remember.

But I do remember dunking Fritos in root beer.
