Wetherspoon set to open up to 30 pubs in Irela 11 years 9 months ago #97

There are three or four pitches in Dun Laoghaire that keeping closing and re opening. I think an issue is that, frankly, not many people are in the town centre after dark these days. Although Blackrock village is quite 9-5 orientated too, so who knows...

Spoons is more of an all day business than the typical Irish pub

That's a good point. Even aside from their food I think they are one of the biggest tea and coffee sellers in the UK too.

Don't get me wrong, I hope they do well. They might also have the pockets and experience to last it out.

Have just had a pint the Old Boro in Swords.

The staff have just been informed that the pub closes on August th 19th and ownership transfers to JDW on the 20th.

No further news but for anyone who knows the Boro it is almost JDW ready.

This may be one of the few times JDW have purchased a staffed/running/going concern!

Heard during the week a very prominent (north) city centre pub is also about to change hands.
