Never actually tried it. Just doesn't look inviting.
Yea. 100 percent social from what I hear. No traffic management being implemented either. But sure look walking everywhere seems to be the default Green answer these days. It's a joke at this stage that we keep getting told amount traffic plans and strategies yet nothing ever seems to happen.
People I know in their 30's born and reared in Maynooth can't afford a modest home in the place and have to move well out of the area. It's really not on.
What's being built out the celbridge road. Is it a housing estate?
Nothing I had from there was up to scratch. Would vastly prefer a Saburittos or even a Boojum (my two favoured chains have shut down - Burritos and Blues (still in Cork) and Tolteca)
Very poor burritos the few times I've tried them. Quite clear that the staff don't really know what they're at and just lump each ingredient in on top of each other, wrap it up and think that's grand.
not sure if it's just the times i go past, but that zombrero place or whatever seems to be nearly always empty. would be surprised if it lasts much longer, unless the rent there is ridiculously cheap
You could say that about any coffee, sandwich or coffee shop. Chipper etc. A total mute point
Had Tuck In for the first time yesterday. The food was beautiful, and the price was reasonable.
Hope they last there.
Looks like the plan for the old Ulster Bank is to convert it to a Doctor's surgery:
ePlan - Online Planning Details
Absolutely. It won't last more than a year. A lot of the stuff on the menu can be made for a few euros at home.
I still think acai bowls are a pretty niche product to basically be the bulk of a company's sales. If you're only going to sell one or two things in a relatively small town you need a significant amount of repeat customers
Obviously I hope I'm wrong, I hope they flourish
Oakberry Açai has over 600 stores in more than 35 countries! I don't think it's niche quite the opposite
The acai bowls looked quite nice. They had (very expensive) smoothies on the menu as well.
Cheers must look out for it
Seems like a prime spot for a fairly niche product? Hope I'm wrong and they do well
Main Street, beside PTSB.
Is this in Glenroyal Shopping Centre? There wasn't a Siopa Milsean when we moved here.
They have a sign outside saying Now Open!
Only saw from a distance though, couldn't see inside
Siopa Milseán unit has finally got some work going on it, must be sat closed 2 years at this point?
This Acai bowl lot going in, sing already up but doesn't seem like any work done inside the unit: https://www.oakberry.com/en-IE/en-UK
Sorry I should have had 2 question marks there - first being after the definitely the same owner - as didnt make sense to me why they wouldn't keep the name. Hope new business works well, so much competition in the area.
Not the same owner at all. Nico has left the business. A Moldovan lady has bought him out.
Definitely same owners - wonder why they don't keep the same name? Been nothing on L'Art Du Chocolat's socials which is a bit strange
Yep, they've a message up on Maynooth Noticeboards on Facebook, that they'll be reopening doing breakfasts, lunches and also for cake orders
I heard it was just reopening under another name DMD I think due to one of the original owners wanting out?
Very disappointing. One of the nicer coffee shops in Maynooth and looked after the shop front very well. Great staff too.
Have heard L'Art Du Chocolat is closing down on Sunday or Monday :'(
Due to start fit out in October
can't remember what it has just replaced? something like "pickle"? but the john hume at the university has that grillodh sandwich place now. never actually tried it but it's meant to be decent.
always wondered what the story is there, does the university only give out the lease for a year or two or something? seems to be always changing outlet. subway was incredibly busy when it was there, was surprised to see it turned into something else
Donadea organics
They've started selling some of their stuff at Typo coffee shop at the GAA club - they had fresh milk, eggs, tomatoes and rather randomly Padron peppers from the farm there last weekend
