    Terrible shame, really is, always seemed to have it's regulars, but i guess the numbers just aren't there to allow it to carry on! :(

    Dungarvan once had one of the highest number of pubs in ireland per head of population...now there's only a handful...people's drinking habits have changed..simple as that..

    everybody welcomes cheaper bottles of beer/wine etc, but actions have consequences....buy your beer in a supermarket and your local pub will close...simple economics...cant blame people to be honest

    The parish is closed and so is the fruit and veg shop where it use to be! He has opened the fruit and veg shop in the shopping centre at the entrance to dunnes!
