fortune tellers & the like..

I don't know if any of you guys ever go to see Fortune Tellers or the like but myself and a group pf mates from work went to see "Tea leaf Mary" in Walkinstown for a laugh. She is famous in Dublin for being a fortune teller and we knew people who'd gone so thought we'd give it a try. What a rip off!!! She charge €20 for a 5 minute "reading" from a Ballygowan plastic cup and told us all the same rubbish! Some will say "you should've known better than to go" but its curiosity that brought us. She is definitely raking it in! €80 for 20 minutes!! Has anyone else been to see her and if so, do you have "a family member with stomach condition" aswell??!!

Glenroyal experience...

What is going on in this kip, 2 Euro to hang up your jacket!?! I was in this place last Friday night, it was empty, not exactly surprising at 15 Euro a head in, drugs freely being passed around in the jacks, never again.

Joels...

Yeah, 10/10 for Joels, unbeatable food, very well priced, excellent service, always busy, but well worth the wait, loads of seating space for when you're waiting for a table.

UGC Cinema - Parnell Square

Don't go to UGC on Saturday and Sunday if you are going to a matinee.

You would assume it would be cheaper to go to a movie during the afternoon.

They now have one price for the whole weekend - €8.50.

This previously was €6.50. That's a 30% increase.
Must be to pay for the overhaul.

Go somewhere else. There's the Savoy and the Screen in town also.
 

good service

Shell garage /Centra Store We are so fed up with customers

Why is it every time I go in i am treated as if I have put them to great effort to serve me.
If I buy a filled roll She literally throws it at me with a scowl

If I buy a newspaper another girl grabs the paper to scan it and snatches my money and dumps the change in my hand.

I am not paranoid because its not just happening to me.

I do not go there anymore because it infuriates me.
It takes no effort to welcome a customer with a smile.
a Please and THANK YOU would ensure that customers might come back again

 Supermucs

Supermacs in the Headford Road Shopping Centre. Snadwich bar called Relish in Supermacs. Ordered a sandwich - was charged as follows:

Two slices of bread (no butter/mayo) €1.10
One slice of ham - €1.75
Sprinkle of grated cheese - €0.50

What a rip off.

liffey valley

liffey valley is an absolute dump. the food court is like a hell hole. i have had food thrown at me and have witnessed a few physical fights etc. the place is full of gangsters and people cannot relax and chill out after a long day of being on their feet. unfotunately, large centres like this become spots for delinquents to hang around in and therefore not a very nice place to be. its a real pity because there is something there for everyone to indulge in but is destroyed by a few. Blanchardstown is exactly the same. in the cinema, food is always being thrown around and chairs kicked etc and just winds me right up! so much to POTENTIALLY offer but only to a certain clientelle at the moment......more DECENT and TRAINED security people should be employed to stop people abusing the place generally.........just a thought.......
