and it will still be known as McDonaghs, especially with such a ludicrous name as that, I thought "the ivory" was bad, and anyone I knew familiar with dalkey still called it mcdonaghs back then. I wonder if they still could have used the mcdonaghs name. I know people unfamiliar with the area who would still know the names mcdonaghs and the queens, and so if visiting would be more likely to try them.patrickbrophy18 wrote: »The new name for McDonagh's Pub will be The Dalkey Duck.
or maybe it will be called McDucks...
Their own logo has a top hat & cane too.

I think the age profile it's targeting won't remember McDonaghs and the new name will catch.
Also it's the sane fellow that started Whelan's in town so could be very promising as a music venue0 -
The door into that unit from outside (opp. the multistorey car park) has Health & Safety notices pasted on it and I've seen lads in hard hats coming and going so there's some work going on inside, maybe a refit? Though for something as simple as a newsagent, you'd expect a refit to take no more than a few days
There's no notice inside about any 'exciting new .....' unit about to open which suggests it will stay much the same as before.
I can now confirm that the old newsagent will now be Cafè Sol and will not go back to being a newsagent. I assume they're moving the Cafe Sol from across the corridor.0 -

The wait times for coffee are still ridiculous, the last few weekends i've been studying at home so normally go up for a coffee around lunch time, but both days i had a 15 min wait from the time i joined the Q to the time i actually got my coffee.
There's a couple of cafe sol's near my office and both are insanely efficient compared to this one, i just dont know how they are so slow or how they mess orders up so much.
But in saying that, its a very starbucks vibe, i seen one guy there on sunday @12:30 and then i went back up to do some shopping at 5 and he was still there with his bloody mac and probably the same coffee
Do agree it is a bit dark, probably wont be an inviting place in the winter0 -
