RGRE Takes Legal Action Against Bewley's Over Alleged Unpaid Rent

Ronan Group Real Estate (RGRE) Grafton Ltd has taken High Court action against Bewley's over alleged unpaid rent for its now closed café on Dublin's Grafton Street.

It was announced in May that the decision had been made to permanently close the Grafton Street café for reasons that the café's managing director, Cól Campbell, said included rent issues.

The café's permanent closure was confirmed last week.

Outstanding Rent

Now the café's former landlord, RGRE Grafton Ltd, is claiming that almost €750,000 in rent is outstanding, and the group is seeking to take possession of the building that housed the café, according to The Business Post.
