Dublin's Café en Seine, Zanzibar etc move to have examiner appointed

McArmalite

" THE CAPITAL Bars chain of pubs and hotels, which is owned and run by the O’Dwyer brothers Liam and Des, has become the latest highprofile hospitality group to feel the effects of the credit crunch. The O’Dwyers yesterday moved to have an interim examiner appointed by the High Court to the companies operating four of its biggest pubs – Café en Seine, The George, Howl at the Moon and Zanzibar. "

Well I never liked Café en Seine, ( or indeed Dawson St bars and restaurants in general ) too many silly, pertenious posers and worse of all - West Brits from south Dublin. Still, the chicks liked them :rolleyes:. If you wanted to make an impression

Howl at the Moon was better, must say their was some excellent talent there.

So folks, what does this say about the Celtic Tiger ??

"only" 4.60? are you serious? only?

In dublin city centre that's a very good price. Most places are €5.

Comparable to many pubs. Unfortunate as it is that's the rub.
I drink in the George but do also like my cheaper options in the city. I do like my bingo on a Sunday though, Thursday's a top night there too. 4.60 for a place doing cabaret and entertainment isn't too bad. Especially when compared to many other places that do nothing yet charge the same or a lot more.

At least it's not full of knackers from north Dublin.

:rolleyes:

Inferiority complexes are terrible.

Anyway, the likes of Cafe en Seine won't close. At worst, a few of the non-performing pubs will be sold.

Never went to Bruxelles actually. The night was nearly always: start off at Dame Street, finish at Camden Street.

Don't talk to me about the Savoy - what a waste of a great venue...

Being a typical Corkonian, I just had to move up there for a few years, then moved back home due to desperately missing Cark... :pac:

I'm sure you were a Brux's regular! Missed the savoy to much ey? :pac:

Dankoozy

Great thats what they get for charging 6.50+ for a pint. no harm to see the back of them. hopefully the premesis will be bought up by a cheap off license or an aldi

Sir Gallagher

Fuck them and their generic cheesy overpriced tacky clubs.

FlutterinBantam

Soooo the public have finally realised they have been ripped off for the last few years.

These fcukers have been ripping people, who deserved it, by paying 6.50 a pint
for some time.

I say, sink you cnunts,and someone who has a better customer ethic will take up the slack.

No fcukin loss at all pilgrim.

Ah, take heart in the fact that there are still LOADS of other such establishments in the Leeson/Harcourt/Baggot Street area... as well as some flash place at the bottom of Grafton Street and that place on D'Olier Street with all the glass.
