    I was sure it was yourself who was giving out when they closed their shop in the Crescent. Might be getting myself confused though! :o

    Yup!! :P

    Wouldn't mind a proper Starbucks (I'm sure PoxyShamrock would agree!!)

    Costa is right across the road from our gaff so it's not all bad.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,555 ✭✭✭Sar_Bear


    Yes! A Starbucks is badly needed!

    Although Gloria Jeans will do for now! Anyone any idea when it's opening?

    Something like a javas or jack mondays is needed.they should be incentives for sole traders to open

    In fairness there are a few... what about Arabica?


  • Registered Users Posts: 51,243 ✭✭✭✭bazz26


    Was in the Starbucks in Microsoft up in Dublin a few times. Imo it's overrated with prices to match.

    The manager of Arabica here, and we have just had refit and update of the menu, we are still using the Elektra Retro machine and Blue-earth blend supplied by Java republic, we have also had more coffee training for staff. Call in and say hello, I am there all week.

    Nice coffee but too small
    A nice hang out kinda cafe would be cool doesnt have to be the finest and most expensive coffee


  • Registered Users Posts: 4,920 ✭✭✭AnCapaillMor


    Any idea when this peckish place is opening?

    Good coffee is the first thing any cafe should get right imo - I will forgive a lot if the coffee is top and the price is reasonable - Arabica do both.

    Good to see Gloria Jeans opening though - new jobs/business always good (sorry Birdie! but don't worry from what I remember they are on the pricey side so you will probably be safe :))

    i love coffee where is this arabica coffee shop-have to try it - i agree i would pay a little more for nice coffee. i thought gloria jeans was a little over priced to be honest. i cant wait to try this arabica coffee.

    Can't come in and say hello for a while (am in London), so this is just a virtual hello. I'm an occasional customer though, and I was pleased with the refit when I visited about ten days ago.

    What do Rococo sell in Adare? Is it a clothing shop?

    OK I went to Arabica for coffee today and I have to agree its pretty decent coffee. Only problem is location I wouldnt be at that side of town and you cant double park outside. its lovely though.

    Parcel Motel supposed to be opening. Had a quick look, afaik it wasn't mentioned, I've been bad to keep up with things, so sorry if it's a double post.

    OP

    The wait is finally over! Parcel Motels have started to arrive all over the country. This pic shows 4 arriving at our Depot in Limerick. Here's the installation schedule (Please be aware that some of these dates could vary slightly depending on site preparations).

    ...
    Week ending 9th November: ... Dock Rd Topaz Limerick, Cahirdavin Topaz Limerick, Castletroy Texaco Limerick ...
