    Cook Street? IIRC, It was one of the streets between Patrick's Street and Oliver Plunkett Street.

    It was on Cook street - Tubes surf shop in there now.

    It was around the time the whole Bewleys group was in terribel trouble. The couple that had the franchise in Cork sold and IIRC, went off doing charity work for a while.

    Did it have some sort of conveyor belt that used to take the dishes back to the kitchen or was that the one in Dublin i'm thinking of?

    Don't remember that. I remember a very hot waitress who really suited the uniform. It's funny the things one recalls.

    That, like me, you were too young at the time? I've fond/hazy memories of having big breakfasts in there with the Fam' on Sundays.
