Went there on Saturday, very nice selection of food. Bigger than the Il Vino deli too.

I went there for a take-away coffee and pastry. No pastries at all, they said they are doing a "soft opening" so not stocking too much initially.

Coffee was extremely weak, more like frothy milk! Doubt I'll be going back...will stick to Giambrones for coffee.

"Soft opening" to see what happens doesn't seem a very good idea with so much Costanerobucks and other (better) offerings (like the aforementioned Giambriones) about. Dublin Girl is not going back and I won't be bothering at all now... :|

Went there for lunch, amazing panini. Don't know what DublinGirl is on about - coffee was plenty strong enough, she probably works for Giambrones :D If you want a pastry, go to a french cafe! They had a nice selection of little cakes which go with proper Italian coffee.

Staff were good, large selection of real Italian food, biggest Deli selection in town. If this is a "soft opening" then I don't know where all the food will go once they fully stock it! Best place to buy real Italian food in my opinion.

Ooh I don't know what to do now - perhaps I'll have to give it a go and make my own mind up.

Drove past this yesterday morning and again today, both times around 9am. It hasn't looked open. It used to open at 8am I recall.

I think it it is safe to assume this one is now demised (and I never got try it). I suspect also that the Braughing Sausages advertised in the window for the past months are now off?

Yes it is "to let" and I know from the horse's mouth that a local entrepreneur is eyeing up the space with a view to expanding operations.
