Trotters is still Trotters and run by Roy,as it was last year. BTW one of the cheapest bars in the port. The other 2 are still closed as far as i am aware.
the other 2 that are closed are the old codfather and the r bar across from Ohara,s. I heard the rent was very high for them. Do you really want to open a bar in this economic climate?
I can tell you that Jeff is reopening in the old Ivy Gardens site it should be up and running for spring he had to move as the landlady would not renew lease,it could be taken over by the Australian bar next door
