UPDATE: Kildare business to reopen its restaurant under new management. FILE PHOTOGRAPH / PIXABAY
A County Kildare business will reopen its restaurant under new management later this month.
It follows after the Newbridge-based business, Harrigan's Bar & Grill, announced that its restaurant would temporarily close last month "until further notice".
The business did not give a specific reason for the temporary closure.
However, on St Brigid's Day 2026 (February 1 last), Harrigan's Bar & Grill revealed that its restaurant will reopen under the management of Seventh Catering.
Harrigan's Bar & Grill explained: "Owners Kathleen and Manu are no strangers to Newbridge; with over 30 years of experience with their restaurant that was previously in Newbridge, Katmanu to their fantastic work at Cill Dara and Killeen Golf Clubs, they are bringing a wealth of passion and skill to Lower Main Street."
It added: "We are so excited to get started and welcome you all back to experience this new chapter!"
The restaurant at Harrigan's Bar & Grill will reopen on Friday, February 13, 2026.
