Price gouging by the pub, restaurant & hotel industry

Even with all those inputs rising it was still possible to make a few bob.

Now you have to compete against the welfare wonderland the government have created. Extra pension costs + sick days, bank holiday, minimum wage rise etc. the extra 4.5% vat put the tin hat on it.

Uses Instagram heavily to promote stuff (never deals). Mentioned for weeks they’d stop brunch if it “wasn’t supported” stopped brunch a couple weeks later. Mentioned live music on Fridays will be cancelled if it’s “not supported” live music stopped a couple weeks later. Then posted both times how due to lack of support it wasn’t feasible to do brunch and live music on Fridays, comes across as “well this is all your fault guys, look what ye have done”

Food is grand there, nothing spectacular. Overpriced stuff you’d get anywhere.

Large Breakfast Roll from Noel's Restaurant ( Take Away side) in Dundalk for 4.50 euro and was first class. Sausage, bacon, egg and black & white pudding. Great value.
