    At the rate Dunnes gets robbed in broad daylight you're probably safer out of it anyway.

    Most certainly, unless I have what I need to cook I order a takeaway to avoid going Dunnes in Ongar, it's like the wild west out there.

    I have not heard a thing about it and I'm on the Main Street every single day. I also know the local heralds (aka the shopkeepers) who are great for the updates, and never heard the like.

    The 2015 Ongar rapings aside.

    I know someone who went to the new halal shop today and said it was great. I like the spices and other things these places sell. Anyone here been as well? I might try venture in some day to witness it all.

    .

    Ah yes, let's pretend you didn't just disparage a community by stating "as fact" that it's prone to the odd gang rape or two.

    Spoofing online is one thing, but when it's at the cost of a communitie's reputation that is quite something else indeed.

    Once again, as a grown man, you should feel shame for trying to paint such a repulsive lie as fact.

    Confirmed report? Confirmed by whom?

    Yes, apologies, incorrect choice of words from me there. I should have said it was one incident known to the poster, although nobody else seems to know anything about it.

    It wasn't a gang rape though? AFAIR that rape, (the one shown on crimecall?) was one man.

    As well as the hassle of queuing, their selection of other brands is brutal.

    For the price conscience craft beer consumer, they have some very good beers

    Quite solid evidence was provided for the Ongar rapings of 2015. Trying to deny them is trying to deny fact, and I wouldn't think the victim's families would appreciate people denying them just because they never heard of them.

    Now can someone please provide me with some more information on the halal food shop and what they think of it? I'm trying to decide whether to go into the village to see it or not. Many thanks.

    I find it hit and miss though, with a very limited selection. But that's how they operate i suppose.

    No Halal food is good enough to take the risk of getting gang raped surely? ;)

    I agree fully on principal, and I do not wish to drag this thread any further from topic, however someone has repeatedly claimed "as fact" that there has been multiple gang rapes in Ongar.

    As this thread could be found in the future by someone researching the area, I feel it's important to stress to those possibly considering Ongar, that no gang rapes have ever been reported to the Gardai, nor have any gang rapes been reported on by any media outlets.

    There's good and bad in many areas, but it's wholly irresponsible and unfair to the community to just fabricate the bad wholesale.

    I'd buy Lidl alcohol if I happen to be shopping there anyway. No way am I going to queue up though just to buy a bottle of wine if there is an offy up the road.

    That depends. Big article in the Sunday Business Post last Sunday.
    Since Superquinns stopped doing their big winesale after being taken over by Supervalue, there has been a huge gap in the market.


    In September Lidl are puttig on a major french wine sale. Bottles around E35 each. The papers wine critic reckoned some of these were a steal at that price.

    Won't be buying any at tbat price myself, but each to his own.

    Didn't see the article, but Superquinn/valu still do wine sales? I've bought plenty at them.

    Anybody got any ideas what is opening in the old school book shop? I drove past today and noticed that the old entrance had been bricked up and a new one put in facing out onto the car park.

    Is it just me or does anyone else notice that some of our fellow habitants have difficulty following the one way system outside the Dunnes Stores entrance? I ventured into the village yesterday afternoon and it was like standing in the middle of a bumper car platform.

    And I don't even know where to begin with the attempts at parallel parking I witnessed on the main street outside the pharmacy.

    I've had brunch/lunch there a couple of times. Really nice food and good service.

    Haven't been for dinner yet but the menu looks lovely, some very nice options.

    Had lunch there - both of us got different types of salad - mine was just about big enough for lunch, my wife's was tiny and would not even be starter sized. There both cost about a tenner an there was no indication on the menu that by salad they meant 4 watercress slips on her dish and a leaf salad on mine. Really disappointed with that but the taste of the food was good and service was good.
    I would not go there for lunch again as you could not rely on the size of the dishes and it took about 40 minutes to be served our salads so not long to eat and enjoy lunch if you have to go back to work. I would go some time for dinner but would not go hungry.


  • Registered Users Posts: 9,847 ✭✭✭py2006


    Is there a bar or is that just for people dining there?

    Heard today of a new 'wine bar' type establishment opening in Mulhuddart village before Xmas , somewhere along the old Navan Rd (where the casino/ chinese/ tanning shop is). 2nd time I've heard this locally so it's probably true. Not on the Paudi Ogs/ Shanty site either.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,862 ✭✭✭✭January


    Someone posted a while ago about PP for where the old Motor Factors was, the application is available to view, with floor plans on the Fingal website.

    Just bumped the thread for you.
