Dylan McGrath closing restaurants now.

Ruh roh...

Dylan McGrath closes two Dublin restaurants as business is 'simply not sustainable'

Mr McGrath’s Fade Street Social restaurant will continue to operate as usual

Yeah, that’s a lot of job losses. I’d wonder if timing is everything here as they just got massive write downs in both of those restaurants with that business restructuring scheme after Covid, and leases coming to a break.. seems financially easier to just ditch the lot and keep on trucking straight across the road in Fade St

Hmmmm

in a recent survey, 74% of respondents said they believe they will have to close their businesses if the VAT rate on food is not reinstated to 9% in October's Budget

So if the temporary VAT rate doesn't go back to 9%, 74% of restaurants will close?

Why do I not believe that ?

Another one gone

Cork restaurant set to close after half a century in business

It has weathered recessions, Covid, and the recent flood, but CHRIS DUNNE hears from the owners of La Trattoria why they are retiring after 50 years ...

What kind of food do they do in the Kilumney Inn? Is it a carvery or what?

A lot of the photos online look to be from a while back and it looks like pub grub.

It's been a while since I was there but it used to be pretty plain stuff, decent portions, and nothing adventurous. At the same time it was better quality than the Ovens bar down the road.

Really sad to see the Strasbourg Goose has permanently closed. They were going to close a year ago with the sale of the premises but that fell through, so they decided to hang on another year. It was really hearty nosh and I'll miss it.

Yeah, just regular pub grub the time I had it. Was grand thoùgh

 

[bluesball]

Yes plain pub grub excellent choices and very reasonable. Pubs that do good food are doing very well at the moment. Kirbys ballinhassig is another place worth a visit.
