We were chatting today about the Sportsfield bar that has been sold, and I mentioned the Roof Top bar owned by the Roches, he said I've been in nearly every pub in Tralee but I don't remember that one. Am I dreaming, was there a bar upstairs in castle street years ago called the Roof Top bar??

There's a sign at 1 of the drive thru windows which says the highest number of cars per hour for the previous month, it's something like 260 an hour. If they spend on average €15 each and they are open for 148 hours a week according to opening hours on Google then that adds up to over half a million euro. Now I know that some hours will be quiet there but I'd also guess a lot of spenders are over €15 and very few are under that

Aside from the point that as lovely as their burgers are, Burger King is too damn expensive. 9.60 if I recall right for a large bacon double cheeseburger meal, while in McDonalds I can get a large double cheeseburger meal for 5.50.

I understand the main concession made at that time was not to route part of the two way system into the park behind the Ivy Terrace businesses.
