Bewley's closed! How sad.
Dec. 21st, 2004 09:25 pmIts last day was 30 November but I'd only heard about it because of an NPR story tonight.
Apparently the Dublin City Council has decided to save the buildings but despite a campaign to save the cafés, reopening doesn't seem very likely.

I'm glad I got to go to the original big fancy cafe in Dublin before it closed!
