THE owner of bustling Beantown Café on Model Farm Road has bought into The Rendezvous bar and is set to introduce a casual dining experience after a more formal food offering was axed before Christmas.
New Yorker Richard Otto is also planning to open a third Beantown Café in Cork city’s suburbs in April, adding to the two he already has: one at the junction of Farranlea Park/Model Farm Road and the other on Western Road, next to the “Pink” clinic. The third Beantown Café will open in Grange, replacing the now closed Perry Street Market Café at the junction of Cooney’s Lane and Grange Road, across the road from German supermarket Aldi.
