If you are interested in a different style of Indian Dining then the opening of Desi Crew as 27 South Richmond Street should be interest. I am planning to have lunch there next Tuesday and will update you soon after.

South Richmond Street is a popular destination for restaurants, with a variety of cuisines to choose from. Camden Street is also a great place to find restaurants, with many options for casual dining.

The Mercantile Hotel on Dame Street, while currently undergoing a significant redevelopment and refurbishment, is owned and will be operated by the Mercantile Group. This project involves the amalgamation of the existing Mercantile Hotel with the adjacent Dame House, expanding its capacity and offerings.

Prior to this redevelopment, the site consisted of the original Mercantile Hotel and the Dame House, which was an office building. The project aims to create a larger, more modern hotel with additional rooms, dining, and bar facilities.

The proliferation of hotel construction in Dublin’s city centre, particularly in areas like Dublin 1, 2, and 7, can be attributed to several factors:

Tourism boom: Dublin has experienced a significant increase in tourist arrivals in recent years. This has created a high demand for accommodation, driving hotel development.
Economic growth: Ireland’s strong economic performance has led to an increase in business travel, further fuelling the need for hotel rooms.
Limited supply: The existing hotel stock in the city centre was struggling to meet the growing demand, creating opportunities for new developments.
Attractive investment: The hotel sector is viewed as a lucrative investment opportunity, attracting both domestic and international investors.

Rick’s Burgers was indeed a late-night spot located at the corner of Dame Street and George’s Street. While it wasn’t technically part of Dame House, it occupied a space within the same building complex. The redevelopment plans for the Mercantile Hotel involved incorporating the Dame House building, which unfortunately meant the closure of Rick’s Burgers in late 2020.
