A Temple Bar cafe owner has described the area as a 'warzone' as violence and attempted robberies plague local business owners.
Niall Sabongi took to Instagram to share photos of The Seafood Cafe's smashed windows after thieves attempted to break in last week. The owner said this is just one of several attacks in recent months and explained that neighbouring businesses were also being targeted.
He also added that violence and anti-social behaviour threatens many businesses trading in the area. He said that gangs of youths often run into the cafe and have made racial and sexual slurs against staff.
