    Post Coppers the other night I found myself in a shocking situation, the Harcourt Diner was closed and the sign removed.

    Does anyone know whether this is only for renovations or is it gone for good? Would be sad to see it go as it was always great craic at about 4am

    The Manhattan! You could get a feed of food and a young wan to bring home on a dark winters night. A solace after a sorry night of trying to pull and dance in some disco.

    Happy memories!

    There's a great article on the Manhattan and the Gig's Place from Hot Press years ago written by Liam Fay. It was online. Worth seeking out.

    No idea Manhattan was closed that long. I ate in Gigs place a year or two ago.

    They are the type of businesses with character and personality that just don't survive in the sterile capitalism of the 21st Century :(

    The Manhattan had one my favourite shop signs in Dublin until it fell off.
