Large crowds gathered as fire crews battled the blaze, which completely engulfed and gutted the single story, mainly glass fronted building.
Four units of the fire brigade remained at the scene until just after 5am.
It’s understood no-one was injured during the incident, however, the road remains closed this morning as Gardai say the structure is unsafe.
Motorists traveling in or out of the city are being advised to expect serious traffic delays this morning as a result.
Gardai say they’re investigating the circumstances surrounding the fire.
