    Brilliant Place. Spent many a good evening there, eating local produce and drinking beers/wine – and chatting to people I never met before and probably won't again!

    Decent market in Belfast as well if you are in the area

    The St Andrews Church market should resemble that one.

    Still hopeful the Google one will be decent also.

    Smithfield Market will eventually get there...we just have a terrible council so best to leave it to the private industry.

    The council plans to reopen the market as a continental-style retail food market. A tender for conservation and refurbishment works on the Victorian building is due to issue by the end of this year, the council said. “When this construction phase is under way a tender process to engage an operator to fit out and operate the new retail market will issue.”

    It amazes me sometimes living in Dublin how, when things go wrong, how quickly DCC can get things done.

    A couple of weeks ago an old lady living round the corner from here, accidentally hit the accelerator as opposed the brake and crashed into a lamppost. One of the original 1920’s ornate types.

    Two hours later, a contractor was round fixing it.

    Yet, the same council took 19 years to build the flats on one side of Dominick Street in the centre of town. (They have yet to decide what to do with the other side).

    I hope they outsource everything to do with the new market…….🙏🤞

    The council made a monumental f-kup of this property 20+ years ago and they really ought to be ashamed of themselves having allowied a private developer to take control and then let it fall into ruin with no consequences.

    The nearby Mother Redcaps isn't so important architecturally but was culturally, again let fall into ruin on DCC's watch.

    Scrap the cap!

    Cork has the Marina Market in an old docks warehouse and people trek down to it.
