Search by name or street, or pick a day and a time and see which of them the map says are open then. The map and the list show the same set.

24 of these have no opening hours on the map, so nothing here can say whether they are open. They stay in the list unless you ask for hours, because hiding them would be answering a question nobody can answer. Distances are from the centre of Kilkenny, in a straight line.
