Downpatrick Restaurant Boosts Jobs
Around 40 new jobs are expected to flow from a proposed bar and restaurant project which is set to get underway shortly in a Co Down town.
The former Rea's Hotel in Downpatrick's Lower Market Street is to have a major internal and external overhaul to provide function and upmarket restaurant and bar facilities. Sloan Inns hopes to be in business by Christmas with a night-club also forming part of the new development.
Jonny Kearney from the company told the Down Recorder newspaper this week that the project shows the firm's willingness to play its own part in the economic regeneration of Downpatrick.
As well as creating jobs the manager said: "We will be providing top class entertainment.
'We can't wait to get started," he said.
