Street Food Vendors 🍔
Nice Burger (used to be Naughty Burger) has set up their permanent home in our kitchen, meaning they’re here to stay for good.
Each week we will have 6-8 different food vendors ranging from pizza, desserts, Mexican, Asian, toasties, ice cream and more. These vendors will be rotated every couple of weeks, to mix things up a little bit and giving others the opportunity to trade with us. You can also expect fun & quirky pop-up vendors at any of our Special Motel Events listed here

Health & Safety ❤️
We’re excited to welcome you to the Motel rooftop at Jam Park ! In line with Irish Government guidance — there will be a number of measures in place to keep everyone safe, and these rules will be strictly enforced.
