    Well bad news...a friend of mine was talking to the new manager a couple of weeks ago and they're NOT doing €3 drinks anymore...it'll ****ing have to be good now to compete with the likes of Bradys and the Roost! The only reason that place did so well was coz of the €3 drinks like!:(

    It was the only reason when the place looked awful. But it might be nice now, and it wouldn't take much to beat the crappy Roost.

    They've taken over Caulfields so they might stay there.

    Omg, that's crap. It was closed for so long I thought they'd be doing something decent with it!

    Went there on Monday afternoon and it was dead but for a few bar-fly's watching horse-racing. Looks the exact same as before too.

    Heard a rumour that they weren't closed for renovations....they got busted for allowing major Class A drug dealing go on...would make sense if all they have to show for it is a lick of paint.

    They closed as there was a court case on goin. The owner didnt disclose he was selling pins at €3 to the new owner who bought it thus the books looked a lot better than they actually were.

    When was that disclosed? I know the chap who took over the lease. He's a head barman and part hotel-manager from The Hamlet Court Hotel in Enfield, got lots f experience apparantly. Sound bloke too. Didn't know he was in cahoots with the Glen though...

    Oh the memories of the LA not too long ago...

    Yep, got that wrong, was the rumour going around Maynooth for a good while.

    Really think they've messed up though.

    They had the chance to do it up and get the "new" people in Maynooth into the place who wouldn't really know the rep of its past. If you walked in there now for the first time, it's doubtful you'd go back.
