Applegreen has re-opened its Midway service area in Portlaoise, which is located at exit 17 on the M7, following a €3 million investment.
The roadside hospitality retailer noted that it will employ a total 56 staff at the Midway location.
Fiona Matthews, managing director, Applegreen Ireland, said: “The refreshed service area also offers an inclusive space to cater to all customer needs, whether it’s a quick pit-stop to pick up a dinner on the journey home, or a relaxing and enjoyable spot for customers to break their journey.
“With brand new state-of-the-art amenities, upgraded parking facilities and a driver exercise zone to come, this €3 million investment highlights Applegreen’s ongoing commitment to provide quality products and services to our customers on the go.”
M&S Food store
Midway, which is also accessible from the N77 and R423, will now feature an M&S Food store within a store outlet as part of Applegreen’s exclusive partnership with the renowned UK retailer.
The opening of the new Midway is the seventh new M&S Food outlet that Applegreen has delivered this year, and the thirteenth in total.
This will be the first time that M&S Food products have been available in Co. Laois.

The newly revamped location will also have a new Braeburn Coffee Café, a Bakewell deli, as well as Burger King, Chopstix, and Subway restaurants.
Midway now features restaurant style seating, a newly enhanced public space, and upgraded toilet facilities. A new driver exercise zone will also be installed at the site.
