    I'm walking through Princess Street daily, and for a week or so i've noticed that they've closed down "until further notice". Their banner is still up in the middle of the street, but everything in the windows are taken down, and have been replaced by these notes, stating that they closed down until further notice.

    Anyone know of any reasons? A friend of mine thinks it might be because of a fairly slow business, but they've only been open for a few months?

    Never heard of it and I am down around that area all the time...Perhaps it's bad location had a lot to do with it's closure.

    Going by the name I take it they sold coffee?

    Hmm...well there are so many places like that nowadays so maybe they didn't get enough customers. So many coffee places / cafes opening these days, really don't see the point as there are far too many of them already!

    I didn't know it was closed but I had wondered why they stopped sending the Friday special offer text messages. Their food was lovely.

    I live quite close to it and only noticed it yesterday!
    And it's closed already...
    IN fairness there are a LOAD of those type of places very close to there, gonna be tough getting enough businesss to keep open.

    I just wonder if it's owned by the same people who own Jitterbeans in Dungarvan?

    That Luca shoe shop on Princes Street is closed for work on subsidence.
