There are a couple of stores. Which one has closed? Or is it all of them?
Pricy considering the poor quality and mostly own brands made in the far East.
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.
Yeah have been to their Nutgrove store. Great value homeware.
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.
Robbies is closed down, fruit and veg place.
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.
Probably has been mentioned a while back but the Arty baker has been a great addition in Dalkey!
It has reopened, more as a cafe then the full on restaurant that they had there before Covid
You can't delete a post. The internet never forgets, boards.ie-style.
Can someone tell me how to delete a post?
<< would have deleted this post but you can't. So just blanked it >>
Why
it should say... going soon
Seems its been planned for a while. From 2019
Ely signage up where the old Rolys was in Dundrum, says 'coming soon'.
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.
VHi Swifcare Dundrum closing and moving to much bigger base in Carrickmines 23 February.
Not a new shop but spotted on the Facebook page of Supervalu in Dalkey...
So, supermarkets and petrol stations are irrelevant to the topic of chains while restaurants and cafes are. You said "Dalkey hates chains" and I merely listed the ones that are there across all lines of business as no line of business is exempt. Making exceptions is an insideous practice.
Anyway, I'm chill. I noticed that Walters in Dun Laoghaire is now open again as Walters in spite of the fact that the working title was The Swimmer. I want to check it out at soon. Has anyone here been since it re-opened?
probably now that you mention it, it has been laid out as a shop for so long i had forgotten about the restaurant!
Hopefully turning it back into restaurant. Lovely room, absolutely wasted with the makeshift shop they've had there during Covid.
Fallon & Byrne in People's Park in DL closed for next few weeks due to staff shortage & refurbishment works
Pretty exciting of you're in need of treatment. I know it's a private hospital, but treatment is often purchased by the public system, would be nice to speed up some treatment that people have been waiting ages for.
Hotel/Hospital related so not as exciting as the usual ones.
Beacon Hospital has secured the green light for an €75 million eight storey extension. The scheme also includes new A&E facilities, cancer care facilities and associated in-patient treatment rooms.
The planning application involves the substantive demolition of the eight storey Beacon Hotel which the Beacon Hospital purchased late in 2020.
Yep closed at the moment.
Is that closed as of now?
The old Weatherspoons in Blackrock has been sold to the Leinster Rugbyads who have a minority shareholding in Lemon & Duke and The Bridge.

Some of my fam went to DTC today and it was black. Like a Christmas eve of old.
Yes, that could be a reaction to the day that's in it or more hopefully a symbol of pent up demand and optimism.
Ditto the City Centre today, which I saw with my own eyes, mobbed.
and owned by the Musgrave group that also owns Supervalu, Centra, musgraves cash and carry and has turnover of 5.4 BILLION and profits of 100 million a year
I suspect we'll see DF survive and thrive. Its already my mum's favourite place to shop.
