Another café has closed its doors in Dublin after 15 years.
The Music Café on Wellington Quay announced the news on social media citing the 'financial burden' of recent times as the reason for their closure.
"The financial burden that has hit us in recent times has put too much stress on the business," they explained.
However, the team at The Music Café added a glimmer of hope by saying they are 'looking at all options' to bring 'something bigger and better in the future'.
The café was one of the cities most unique places, serving as a intimate live music venue as well as serving up delicious coffee and treats.
Fans of the café were devastated by the news, with one writing: "Always my favourite since I was a kid so many memories there."
"So sorry to hear this! What an amazing place! One of my favourite secret spots in the city ever since I got here!" commented another.
