    Was but the rates for this place would be huge.

    when a business starts opening up,closing down,opening up they loose all their bread an butter ie the locals.

    its a fine fine building but id say it will stay closed for the foreseeable future,theres no money to be made there imo

    Its also owned by the Lyne family, why have competition against something they already have, also no one in their right mind would lease a place from an owner that has such a conflict of interest in the business.

    There are too many pubs in town for the business they get these days. When people do go out they all want to go to the more central locations like Knoxes. How that place is so busy mystifies me. It's alright when it's mid week but at the weekend you can't move in there and it takes forever to get served.

    It seems like in Ennis every few years that the centre for nights out shifts... Back in the day it used to be the Market, then Lifford was doing well for a while with MT Pockets, Steeles and Kearneys. These days, only Abbey Street (Knox's, YOLO, Cruises, Front Bar) are worth heading to. Patrick's seems to be surviving well enough somehow. But yeah, there won't be a pub down in Kearney's for a while yet, there's no draw to that side of the town any more. Steeles used to be wedged out the door every week, now you only ever see a handful around the place on a Saturday night

    Steeles ruined it for themselves. Used to be brilliant but management in the bar made no attempt to revive business once the Library opened and so it's still dead quiet.
