We’ve been up and trading in Temple Bar for a few days, even though the shop is not finished. Specifically, we are missing the glass front and side, wood cladding, and a few other bits and pieces. When the shop is done, it will be a glass cube, and hopefully the glass will arrive on Wednesday, so we will close for a couple of days to let that happen.
In Wicklow Street, we’re also getting really close. With a bit of luck we’ll be open on Thursday. The majority of the work is done, and we’re just missing the finishing touches.
As always, with a project like this, we’ll have to accept that there will be imperfections and bits and pieces that we’ll have to address over the next weeks and months.
Still, I’ll breathe a very big sigh of relief when the doors are finally open!
Looking good, Kieran. I’m amazed that you managed to get it open so quickly!
I was a big fan of both of the Haagen Daz cafes you guys are taking over in Dublin, but I’m really excited about visiting the new shops and finally trying the ice cream.
Good luck with the official opening tomorrow 🙂
