I don't recall a restaurant there before Tenor's. Finan's still owned most of that block at that stage didn't they?

beertons

It was a pizzeria in '92/93. I was too young and uninterested to remember the name.

john_johnerson

Moved to Naas in 07 and there was a restaurant there which I'm almost certain I ate in. Normal food as opposed to ethnic.

Was tenors by july 09 according to Street view.

I have no necessity to find this out. Was in the candied walnut the other night and 4 of us couldn't remember the name. Annoying now..

I think the restaurant before Tenors was called Bia and they had the best chicken wings ever!! Haven't come across any better since!

john_johnerson

You're right, but I hate you as well cause that's not the one I was thinking of.....

There was one immediately before bia.

Fair play, I have about 10 people on the case now and nobody remembered that one.

Was it an Asian place called himalaya?

Not sure on the name but was definitely an Asian place. Was nice.

May have been a coffee shop in between that and tenors??

Was the Himalaya or Himalayan at one stage alright but that was before my time. Pre 07.

There is something immediately before bia though and I ate there a couple of times unless I have a very vivid imagination...

There was a take away pizza place there. Finan's I think it was called. And upstairs was part of the "buzz bar" in the nightclub.

Hi Everyone,

We are currently on the hunt for a great preschool in Naas and I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations? So far we are planning to go and see Tender Years and Barneys. Does anyone have any experience with these preschools? Or any other ones for that matter?! If anybody had any info, recommendations etc. I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

I know Acorn, and they are really excellent. I have two nephews there and they (and their parents) love it.

Which lingerie shop is gone? I see Apache pizza is gone now too...

While something does need to be done to give the place a facelift, I don't know how much good a public campaign about how rubbish your town is for business...

It used to be Conway's, kinda beside Sherry Fitzgerald.

The pizza place are getting new ovens, they'll be back open soon.

It's ongoing this week for sure, not sure when it's due to finish but they have entertainment scheduled for Sat night so maybe they will finish it by Sat.
You could always post a message on their fb page.

beertons

They'll be another week at it anyway. I'll pop in later and report back.

beertons

It's gutted. 2 weeks minimum I'd say.
