A brand new Supermac's Plaza, located in Kinnegad itself, which is nestled within the M4/M6 interchange. At first it looks small and gets very busy, but there is a large and calm seating area upstairs.

The Plaza was first planned in 2009, on land that had been designated for a commercial venture. It opened on 31 May 2019, much larger than originally envisaged, as a carbon copy of Supermac's existing plazas across the country, including the one down the road at [[Galway|Galway Plaza]].

The M4 to the east of here is a tolled motorway, so although the plaza is a short distance from the motorway, it receives a lot of passing traffic from the old road to Enfield.

It is not officially acknowledged by TII as a service area for either motorway, probably because the road to get there is more than the "few hundred metres" required by their policy - even though it is physically located right next to them both. A 2022 policy document did count Kinnegad Plaza as an official service area for the first time, even though it's still not signed.

The forecourt boasts the "fastest truck fuel pumps in Leinster". The service area was the second subject of the recurring RTÉ Radio One programme 'Services Ahead' on 24 December 2021.

Although there is lots of [[SPAR]] signage around the outside of the site, inside their name is not used at all, and instead it looks more like an independent shop.
