Talbot Mall (formerly known as Irish Life Shopping Mall prior its 2013 rebranding) is a small shopping centre located between Talbot Street and Abbey Street in Dublin, Ireland. It is part of a complex which are the Irish Life buildings on Abbey Street, and other office facilities. The car park is accessible from Abbey street and exits on Gardner Street.
