VHi Swifcare Dundrum closing and moving to much bigger base in Carrickmines 23 February.
Grange Pharmacy at Deansgrange Cross has been taken over by Boots. So far, no external changes. But inside, you'll notice the Boots logo on the POS machines, you'll be handed your purchases in a Boots bag and they have a rack of Boots wire baskets inside the front door. I'd expect a refit team to descend on the place soon.
Ely signage up where the old Rolys was in Dundrum, says 'coming soon'.
Seems its been planned for a while. From 2019
it should say... going soon
Why
Can someone tell me how to delete a post?
<< would have deleted this post but you can't. So just blanked it >>
You can't delete a post. The internet never forgets, boards.ie-style.
It has reopened, more as a cafe then the full on restaurant that they had there before Covid
Probably has been mentioned a while back but the Arty baker has been a great addition in Dalkey!
Home Store and More comes to Blackrock (via @IrishTimes) https://www.irishtimes.com/business/commercial-property/home-store-and-more-comes-to-blackrock-1.4796791
Opening in the old Debenhams unit in Frascati.
Robbies is closed down, fruit and veg place.
That's brilliant news for Frascati. I have never been to this retailer before. Has anyone been to any of their stores in other parts of Dublin.
What are their products like. Are they good quality for their customers.
Yeah have been to their Nutgrove store. Great value homeware.
I've bought a fair bit over the years from their Blanchardstown store. The quality and style would be better than what you get in Woodies or Heatons but a little inferior to what Debenhams used to sell or maybe even Dunnes homeware.
Good for kitchen/household stuff, curtains and bed linen. Also for Xmas lights/decs.
Pricy considering the poor quality and mostly own brands made in the far East.
There are a couple of stores. Which one has closed? Or is it all of them?
Churchtown
Apparently it'll be just the basement unit (presumably leaving the ground floor part of Debenhams free for Boots to either move to or expand into).
And the plan is supposed to be now to build another escalator to the basement, but in the big open space in the middle of the centre. In front of M+S
Thats surprising, always seemed busy.
There's one past Dundrum on the way to Stepaside that's opened recently and still going
Staff seem nice, hopefully it does well
Tesco have opened a new supermarket at White Pines in Rathfarnham on Tuesday.
Churchtown branch didn't last long - maybe less than a year? I think Robbie's son was in charge of it. They seem to be going well in Kilmacud and new one now in Sandyford Village
Theres a great Supervalue beside it I suppose.
That's excellent news. Is that where the old House Of Fraser used to be?
Yep ground level and -1......Pennys taking the other two.
Is Harveys Nics still open in DD?
Yes, dreading BT opening tomorrow. My wife can do serious damage to a Credit card. but good to see it, the place was looking fairly deserted
Butlers Chocolate Cafe has just opened recently in Blackrock SC. Has anyone here gone into it yet?
