Talking to a Barman from Temple bar ,Most of the pubs WONT reopen they say it will cost to much at the moment they have reduced costs like insurance ,Electric,wages,rates .The word is they will not reopen till February .

Why February?Are the barmen working on their own vaccine or something.

Saw the Market bar on the news and it looks poxy with all the cubicles around the tables.They've turned a large capacity open plan pub into lots of crappy smaller isolated units with only 50% capacity.

I'm assuming they'll be taking wage subsidies until a vaccine is found.

There is no way pubs are staying closed in December.

Reason Feb .There is nothing happening no tourists no music at the moment the pubs are not making money but they are not losing money .My mate says it would cost his boss 1250 a week to open the doors before wages .He dosent see that it makes economic sense .No gigs ,no GAA probably get a good December out of it January is usually quiet .So sit till Feb .

Probably more because he won't be getting €7 a pint off the locals.Most of those pubs in Templebar are tiny but make massive margins on the drink.Now they can't ram in the punters and overcharge them.

GAA final is set for Saturday 19th December


The only Pubs that aren't reopening are those that are too small or don't do food

About Templebar....a barman from there was telling me his boss doesn't want Irish as they're always complaining about the prices.Now they're the only customers available he's probably staying closed as he would have to lower his prices.Without live music it's a fairly boring place.
