    Popped down to the centre at lunch time, Sostrene Grene is emptied out of stock whereas up to recently they still had stuff in the windows at least.

    Is Raidar clothes shop in the Centre closed down too? Walked past on Friday and it was shuttered. Social media pages are inactive. Selection of menswear only shops in Blanch is very poor compared to other shopping centres.

    Still shuttered today, was wondering the same myself.

    Was just checking boards to see if anyone has any info on this. It’s one of my favourite shops between all shopping centers.
    Anyone know if it’s gone or know of a similar shop?

    Never liked that shop, staff in your face all of the time, afraid to unfold any of the clothing as they were impeccably neat and if you did staff were straight over Folding it up again, also some strange no return policy at the tills.

    I see there's construction work going on outside the Greyhound Pub. An Outdoor "dining" area or something else altogether?

    I walked past the other morning and they were laying pipes. Doubt it's seating.

    Someone mentioned it flooded earlier in the thread. I was up there last week and they were aload of toilets sitting on the floor in front of the bar so it must have been a bad flood.....

    According to their insta they'll be open Thursday to Sunday 4 to 9pm - click and collect only.

    Looking forward to giving them a shot soon.

    Yep, got it last week. Really well organised, order online and just rock up at the appointed time to collect your order. Bujo burgers are great, we actually drove over to Sandymount during a break in lockdowns last year just to get some, they're that good. And definitely get some onion rings, they're excellent.

    A bit expensive for a family of four for a takeaway. Imho.

    I wouldn't find the product any better than half and half or grilltown. Like Bunsen, they've done well to build up the legend through social media and are charging for it.

    Twice the price of a MacDonalds meal and I doubt they're twice as good as the one off burgers they do which I find are generally quite decent. It's stuff like onion rings and other sides that MacDonalds underperform in.

    Lovely. Their outdoor area has turned into a sty the past few months.

    There looks to be a new gym opening up in Rathborne Village in Ashtown when I was there over the weekend. Anyone have any details?

    Was in Westend earlier and saw that Wetherspoons was open and busy. The beer garden becomes a decent suntrap in the evenings.

    GAP has announced the closure of all UK and Ireland physical stores, moving online only. So that'll be a large empty unit in Westend in due course.

    All closing between the end of August and end of September, so it won't be around too much longer.

    I remember going to America years ago back in the 90s and getting GAP clothes was always a big thing and you'd have people at home asking you to pick up something there for them. Since they opened in Ireland, I never found their clothes appealing. They seemed very safe and boring.

    I remember a Saturday Night Live sketch about them to the effect that they are clothes for people that have given up, something to wear in preference to public nudity. The fit was always terrible tbf.

    Since the arrival of Supermacs and Krispy Kreme in recent years, I have begun to spread. However, I will try out BK, just to make sure it safe for the rest of you.

    What a great service you offer Larbre34 😄 I always forget about the Supermacs in Mulhuddart - probably for the best!

    Is the Greyhound pub permanently closed now? Was down the village for the first time in ages, looks very derelict. Shame really, was a cracking boozer in its day.

    Agree. It's an awful waste of what could potentially be a very nice pub if looked after. Get rid of the late license and strip it back to being a traditional pub.
