Just heard the Henry Grattan has been replaced by yet another marvellous and needed Londis.
Does anyone know what happened the fittings from the old Prince’s Bar that were in the Henry Grattan? Surely not skipped?:eek:

that pub was ruined 4 or 5 years ago when it was “sanitised” and joined the long list of bolloxed pubs that includes searsons, the waterloo, o’briens et al. It’s better off as a londis.
That was a nice pub a long time ago, as nice as some like Doheny and Nesbitts.. Outrageous that it was’nt protected.
it’s a hell of a streetscape – old pub Larry Murphys, then Londis, then the mini Seagram. What a strange town we live in. This development, I’m convinced, occured overnight about 4 weeks ago.

This isn’t far from the truth, t’was about 4 weeks ago anyways, and I think took about a week.
Then again, the pub could have been closed longer unbeknown to me.I had lunch there in late may/early june. First time in the place, and now tis gone.
Corner shops, ugly ones at that, are like feckin crop circles in Dublin. They appear overnight, no one asked for them, no-one knows who’s responsible, and they get everyones attention forever for no reason.
It’s the Griffin brothers. They own nearly every convenience store between O’Connell Street and St Stephen’s Green.
