Volvo Ocean Race, Arts Festival, Race week plus all the tourists. Loads of stuff happens in Galway during the summer.

Ah sure, it'll be grand.

Diabhal Beag · 03-04-2012 01:49PM

You'd swear no students leave Galway for college. Cuba will do well.

mrs. doubtfire · 03-04-2012 03:25PM

This is great news. I've had many a, shall we say, "good time" in the toilets in Cuba.

CMitch81 · 03-04-2012 06:14PM

Anything that might bring in a few jobs is a good thing, god knows this town needs them.

Tell us more! I suppose they weren't too grotty as public lavs go.

Yay for Cuba.

Was it Cuba or GPO that used to have that guy in the men loos that would spray you with aftershave? He always creeped me out when I was hammered.

You obviously haven't been upstairs in Monroe's either :rolleyes:

MadYaker · 23-04-2012 09:38PM

Bumping this to see if anyone has heard anything about this? I walked past it today and there was no work going on inside but the outside has been completely done up, new paint all over and they seem to have fixed up the Cuba signs as well.

TheCosmicFrog · 26-04-2012 07:43PM

For your interest...

empacher · 26-04-2012 07:46PM

told you it wasn't opening. one look inside and you'll see some ****ty ass furniture that looks like it came from a granny knitting group.

MadYaker · 26-04-2012 08:12PM

Oh well

I wonder why they bothered doing up the outside? There was people working on the inside for a while too, to make it more sellable I suppose.

Yeah, spotted that myself. I reckon it's just old furniture they bought to show potential tenants what a bar *would* look like.

foxy_19-89 · 26-04-2012 11:08PM

But renovating the old harvest part of the venue was hardly just to show it off to potential letters? That sign never came down during this whole whammy of a thread

Shanley · 27-04-2012 03:28PM

It has been let out by a very nice couple who have worked in Galway hospitality for years, cant say more than that for the moment!

"Den of debauchery" - brilliant!

07-05-2012 04:10PM

Well, we definitely don't have enough den of debaucheries in Galway, that's for sure :mad:

bill murray · 12-06-2012 07:34PM

Looks like its reopening for sure. The facebook page just became active again saying it was opening soon. Anyone know anything?

biko · 12-06-2012 07:43PM

Merged with recent Cuba thread.

bill murray · 12-06-2012 07:51PM

Opening in two weeks it seems.

Good news for galway

TheCosmicFrog · 12-06-2012 08:08PM

MyPeopleDrankTheSoup · 12-06-2012 10:14PM

is that you gary?

Shanley · 13-06-2012 12:11AM

I would highly doubt it considering it was a minimum 1 year lease when it was posted on Daft.ie

Best of luck to them and hopefully it will be one of the success stories in recession Galway times, at the end of the day it is a benefit to entertainment, revenue, employment, eyre square and galway for this place to reopen
