    Yeah saw that, I wonder was the close enforced ?

    They have growlers out in superquinn but not sure what's the story with them and where do you get the beer for them ?

    Just ask member of staff, they will pour.it's good, got them numerous times from there and world wide wines. Just so you know....Good deals on craft beer in many places, 5 metalman for 10, for example.

    Yeah the 4 for €10/€12 etc deals work out better value

    Just wondering where you've seen the MetalMan 5 for €10?

    Also I've gotten the growlers before in Supervalu on the Tramore Road but I'm not sure if they're currently doing it with the lockdown, the board where they have the beer selections written up has been cleared. Could be wrong but I've been down there a number of times over the last few weeks and never saw much activity over by there where there would have been before. Be interesting to know for sure, but I just assumed given the blackboard being cleared meant they haven't any kegs in at the moment.

    That place must definitely have its money made if they can afford to close completely without offering any kind of takeway service at all. You can easily see the difference between those that are barely staying afloat to the well established ones.

    Good to see businesses making the most of it and people getting on with their lives.

    yeah very true, getting to a stage now where we can no longer do all this and watch our European neighbours getting on with it

    Dates of first cases:
    France 24 Jan
    Germany 27 Jan
    Italy 31 Jan
    Spain 31 Jan
    UK 31 Jan
    Belgium 4 Feb
    Greece 26 Feb
    Ireland 29 Feb

    It makes sense that we would see other countries coming out of it before we do, some of them clearly too soon anyway.

    Opening June 8th @4pm
    Hi Everyone, we hope you're keeping well and enjoyed the long weekend. We just wanted to provide a quick update on some changes you can expect when we reopen.

    We will offer a click and collect service through Marvin.ie in an attempt to limit the time you spend in a queue.

    We will have a designated section for pick ups - to the left hand side when you enter the shop

    Graphic Image have provided a hand sanitation unit directly inside the front door and we would ask all customers to use this on entering and leaving the shop

    Under social distancing guidelines the waiting area has the capacity to hold 4 customers in a queue and 2 customers at the click and collect point.

    Should you visit the shop and feel there are any other measures or improvements we can implement please send us a message and we will respond accordingly.

    We don't know about you but we've missed everybody and are excited to see you all when we reopen

    Makes me cringe looking at the long lines to McDonalds. I absolutely knew there would be a rush on McDonalds. I thought there was supposed to be some sort of traffic management plan.

    I wouldn't queue for myself, but the kids love it and I would do it for them as a treat. Nothing sad or idiotic about that.

    However, I hear they're not doing milkshakes, so what's the point?
