Congrats Ken on your success, I met a certain spirited photographing italian lady last saturday at the barefoot boogie night in cultivate, dublin, who told me about your venture. Just wishing you all the best, I would have visited but I’m off to Greece this time. Will have a look in the future i hope. Take care, peace out!..

Thanks for the kind words fellas…myself and ro started it with 20eu in our pocket, literally, and renovated it ourselves with the help of the lovely annie mac who guided us through everything and produced a very warm homely bar with character and style that we work ourselves. we were sooo broke doing it from the beginning and lived in it for a few months and after it opened. We managed to create something special and have been very lucky to meet so many wonderful people passin through or stayin put.
Ro and Fergal, who wrote before, were once ‘The White Trash Girls’ and are soon to recreate. I hope very soon as I was their biggest fan!

‘Mama soup’ came to the bar recently and left nothing but goodness, soup, quiche and homemade cakes are now on the menu….
take it easy

Thanks for the info Fergal - two friends of mine are in Barcelona this weekend & I recommended they pop in. I’m thinking of spending a weekend in Barcelona at the end of the summer and will be sure to go back.
