Agree the stench in tesco is vile. They were pulling out fridges the other evening and the foulness was all pervasive.

Also, anyone notice the laughable reduction shelf? “Was €2.99 now €2.95!” Eh, it’s past the best before date today, Shirley they can do better than that.

Aldi would be a dream come true.

Always noticed this, really bad compared to other Tesco's

I have refused to buy anything out of the fridges in Tesco Phibs since well before Xmas. The stench is horrendous like smelly feet. The floors are usually always wet around the fridges which makes me think they arenâ€™t working and the stuff inside is defrosting ughh. An Aldi would be amazing!

Just back from Tesco...all clean...finally...well the smell is gone...

Have been to the Greek place now a few times and have enjoyed it. Its usually packed with Greek people which is a good sign.

Thanks! I know the area quite well and we've been looking at houses for a while so have no doubt we'll be happy there.

Tesco Phibsboro was always crap IMO but still manages to get worse and worse. The bad smell issue has been going on for months on and off. There must be a management/staff issue there for the place being so ***e. I've heard rumours of Aldi targeting the old cinema building opposite Two Boys Brew, not sure if that's true but I would welcome anything in the area just to have an alternative at walking distance.

I thought I was the only one getting that stink in Tesco. It was mostly in the milk aisle. I think it's rotten milk that hasn't been cleaned up. It's revolting.

Muahahaha

There's a fish shop up at the 17 shops in Cabra. Not in the row of 17, but behind the AIB just across from Clarke's Bakery. I haven't been so can't vouch for it, but I think I'm going next weekend so I'll take pics.

It's a grand spot, pretty small and never has much on show but decent value.

I actually reported them to the FSAI before Christmas it was so bad, I was in today and noticed it was bad again so I might follow that up with them!

Haven't tried Loretta's but looking forward to giving it a go. Also saw there's a planning notice for a new cafe beside the Greek place on Prospect Road - great to have so many new places to try!

oh really? Must have a look..
Mind you with 400+ apartments under construction in cabra we might need lots of eateries ðŸ˜

Went to Botanic House for dinner last night, that's the third time we've been and the food has been really excellent each time, but it definitely could've been busier... They have live jazz from 3.30 to 5.30 on Sundays which is a nice touch.

Has it picked up? I read two bad reviews of the place which put me off.

I ate there over Christmas. They are going for a finer-dining experience, stopping short on being over-priced - but it is not cheap. I only had the burger and it was nice, and one of the cheapest things on the menu @ €15.

We were there on the Saturday before Christmas and it was at 30/40% capacity. Had a peep in at the bar. It looks nice but is quite small. There is also another section which is 100% for christenings/funerals/etc. I'd go back but probably to the bar.

I was back in Loretta's on Saturday night. Great buzz about the place, food still excellent. Thought it might have been quiet for January but I was glad we booked, full house. Great to have a nice place nearby.
