New Shop Maynooth

Are a lot of the bars/cafes/restaurants in the town under the same ownership?

Reminds me of that episode from The Simpsons. 😄

So every once in a while I'm fond on a takeaway, Maynooth has many options but which are the best options, because some of the stuff I've gotten over the last year has been awful. Below are my top 3, and really the only 3 that I think are good, what am I missing from the area?

1. Falo

2. Lana - but prefer to eat in there rather than takeaway.

3. Delhi Darbar

The Elite was fantastic as this.

I am in Leixlip area and left Thortons about 3 months ago for Greyhound….offer 12.50 for 12 months…17.50 thereafter…no service charge.

Initially got fairly threatening email from Thortons…seemed shocked that I was leaving them and wanted payment to collect their bins.We also had money in credit with them which would have covered this "penalty".

Stood my ground and told them their bins were available for collection…took them about 6 weeks to collect but in the end they collected and refunded money in credit…..and message that they hoped I would return at some time in future😀

Greyhound have been excellent so far.

I never said it was an issue, it just reminded me of that scene from The Simpsons. It doesn't really bother me one way or the other. Actually I would have preferred if they kept the motor factors there considering it was the only one in the town.

yeah i was in flyfit before i moved to maynooth a few years ago, and working in town it's a such a pity for me anyway cos would have gotten such good usage from the roaming membership.

that said, for me at least with my work hours, the opening hours makes it work it, there was one flyfit that was 24 hours but thats disappeared since covid.

another things since covid, speaking of take-away is all the early closings. i dont get home from work till late enough sometimes, like 10 or 11 and a lot of places are already closed by then (lana, yeah burger, dehli darbar etc)

personally i'm not a fan of much of the options in maynooth, even with chinese i order from wongs in kilcock.

yes will be opening shortly. Legal stuff and instalation of extractor unit took more time than anticipated

Signs up for months now - it'll be a "licenced restaurant", but knowing Fitzgerald it'll be run as a pub; it'll be licenced as a pub anyway.

It was the Duke and Coachmen before the Red Door.

careful now, down with this sort of thing

Maxol closes at semi random times as far as I can tell, but 10 at the latest. Pandemic killed 24h opening but Tesco had gone to midnight well before that.

That's what it has planning permission for, so can't see it being opened as anything other than a licenced venue of some sort.

Given it's attached to the front of the student accommodation, I'm guessing it'll be heavily aimed at them...? Not an old fogie like me anyway!
