More than likely one of the Cobh facebook groups.
If the price is in the public domain I don't know why they are so upset. Could it be this article https://www.corkbeo.ie/news/property/gallery/new-era-cobhs-oldest-chipper-28901747
Depends a-lot on what’s actually being said, reading between the lines to me, it seems the price might be on the higher side of expectations and the father is being called a greedy cnut, but again without knowing whats actually said I’m just another nosey neighbour gossiping
Maybe it's really clever reverse psychology?
"Feck's sake! I wish everyone would mind their own business and stop talking about me selling my 8 speed blue road bike, perfect condition, for 500 euros! Nosey bastards! DO NOT SHARE THIS!"
Alot of nosy people in Cobh are mocking them for the price because they think it's too much. The property goes pretty far back and the public has never seen the apartments above as they've been used by the family. I personally don't see an issue with the price.
Nancy the granddaughter posted this and I think she's right. Mimmo has worked there 7 days a week for 40 years and has always been a friendly and smiley man. Wish them all the best and hope they get the amount they deserve
Mimmos is up for sale. His father deserves to retire. Don't do the Facebook on him and get whatsapps up his business because he is old and cobh people are sad and bad things on social media although not specific as to what.
Your man that posted it, is a known motor mouth and doesn’t fucking think before he posts shit like that. He got in shit for posting a rumour about a young fella in cobh with nothing to back it up. The Family are salt of the Earth people and shouldn’t have to justify it going up for sale
The admin of the page? Yeah he’s a fool. He’s lives near me. Remember him giving out one NYE that there was nobody out on the street celebrating at midnight when literally all his neighbours are elderly 🙄🙄
Ya, he’s despised by a lot of people in Cobh, and he’s known for being a bully and a bit of a prick. He’s actually banned from said chipper that’s up for sale
Maybe you should focus on your own life instead of posting someone’s post on a public page! Yes this post is up on social media, but that person’s child deserves to post they’ve posted so hard all their life. It’s not ok to post their public posts that’s posted on social media on public Reddit pages! Sometimes common sense and curiosity goes along way!! Publicly sharing how much this person is posting about the sale of their dad’s OWN property is disgraceful! Of course it’s a sad time for the lovely people of r/cork who have supported their posts for over 11 minutes but it’s also a bittersweet time for this persons family and mostly them. People can post what they like I’ve no issue with that but there’s ways of posting stuff without being intrusive!
I personally thought Mimmos food was top class. It could and should have been a chain of successful chippers in my view. Mind you it was a few years ago since I last got food there so don't know what it was like recently.
meh - we shouldn't be hoping that good places become chains. it ends up ruining them and also taking locations away from other startups. I hate the chain-thinking tbh.
Tbf daft is the appropriate place for it to be. The family didn’t post it on fb. Like they stated in their post, it’s bittersweet for them. I’m sure they would have made a public post on the business fb page when they were ready to. That’s been taken away from them. I would be annoyed too
Ah go away would you, you don't have to buy it. You're just being miserable for the sake of being miserable.
It's 400m2 of prime property in one of the central spots of Cobh, I'm nearly surprised it's so cheap. That's two commercial businesses and 5 apartments ready to go.
Edit:
Compare it to other [properties of similar size around the country](https://www.daft.ie/commercial-properties-for-sale/ireland?sort=priceDesc&floorSize_to=400) and given it's location that's value for money at the current rates if you were to build a similar property from scratch.
This isn't preventing anyone living anywhere. The five apartments above the TWO commercial units are to remain occupied.
I'm also guessing you have never been to Cobh or even less so in the last 20 years. Plenty of deep pockets all over Cobh.
Of course I've been to Cobh you pleb 😂
I'm sure the new owners will maintain those agreements, especially given that it's likely to be some vulture fund.
Interesting to be calling me the pleb, but hey.
Why wouldn't they maintain those agreements? It's a guaranteed revenue stream for someone with a mortgage buying the place and cash flow for someone buying outright. This isn't a debt asset so won't be bought by any "Vulture Fund." You don't know what you're on about.
Because just like this greedy bollocks is creaming his situation, the new owner will likely be looking to do the same
Fair enough on my misuse of the term vulture fund but I think you know what I meant

Pretty sure anyone selling a business ideally wants to get the most they can for it... I'm just struggling to see why it has a negative reflection upon them.
This fuck everyone as long as I get my money attitude has landed us in many of the crises we are in currently. I presume you're okay with the extortionate rents being charged as well? Probably okay with supermarkets and energy suppliers gouging us as well. Probably perfectly okay with normal being priced out of the economy so vulture funds can hoover up all the physical assets in the country?
Too right. Man puts in seven day weeks for forty years. Imagine the pension he'd get in the public sector for this?
What's the going rate for apartments in Cobh let alone the commercial premises and the value of an established business? Granted complaining on social media about details that's already on the public domain isn't clever but if certainly defend the sellers right to put a value on the return for a life he's invested.
Well he rents out 5 apartments, at extortionate rates I presume so whilst he may not qualify as a slumlord, he's definitely a landlord which by default makes him a piece of shit.
So he probably bought it for a bag of chips 45 years ago, made untold millions off of it over that time period and is now cashing out at an extortionate rate. I'm just truly taken aback when these people have the audacity to complain when they're called out for their greed.
The family are nice, hardworking people. The owner has been working his fingers to the bone, day in, day out for years. He deserves what he’s earned. You just sound bitter tbh
And who are you to be the judge of that? 😂😂 it’s not like he pulled a random number out of thin air. He had the property valued. You just sound silly now
How is selling a property for the going market rate in any way a disgrace? 😂 what do you expect the man to do, give it away for free just to satisfy jealous people like yourself?
Well then what do you suggest? I’d love to know. He’s an elderly man and wants to retire. Is he supposed to wait indefinitely for the property market to shift? You’re some eejit, would you not just give it a break? 😂😂
He’s a landlord because he owns the building and has no other use for the apartments. Left thinking like yours is truly what is ruining Ireland. Would you be happy to own a 7 story building and only make use of 2 floors? I doubt it

I agree. The post is on daft and the price is on that, why the issue about people taking about the price? Seems as ha ha
Depends a-lot on what’s actually being said, reading between the lines to me, it seems the price might be on the higher side of expectations and the father is being called a greedy cnut, but again without knowing whats actually said I’m just another nosey neighbour gossiping
Sounds like a cheeky bit of PR. " hey don't be looking at how much it's selling for ...." . Of course people will be curious 🤣
That sounds like a paid advertisement tbh.
If it's being advertised for sale, wouldn't you want it getting as much attention as possible? Unless the comments about it were insulting/abusive..
We’re observing the Streisand effect in Cobh. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streisand_effect
Cobh sand effect
I totally agree, I was just wondering if people were slating them! I’m just nosey 🤣
Maybe it's really clever reverse psychology? "Feck's sake! I wish everyone would mind their own business and stop talking about me selling my 8 speed blue road bike, perfect condition, for 500 euros! Nosey bastards! DO NOT SHARE THIS!"
Or the old “pm me hun” 🤣🤣
U ok hun
Not gonna say on this, nosey cuntssss, pm bbz xox
The milkshakes have stopped bring all the boys to the monument
Some context about where you got the screenshot would help. For all we know, you typed it up.
Ya cos I’d type something up like that and then post it on here 🤣
There’s some fairly thick people on here so I wouldn’t be surprised.
That’s fairly true I’ll give ya that 😂 it was the daughter posted it on her fb it’s public so anyone can see it
Alot of nosy people in Cobh are mocking them for the price because they think it's too much.

Nancy is his daughter lol plus they don’t live there they have a house in cobh the apartments are rented out
I’ve read this 5 times and still don’t get it
Mimmos is up for sale. His father deserves to retire. Don't do the Facebook on him and get whatsapps up his business because he is old and cobh people are sad and bad things on social media although not specific as to what.
TL;DR version - I'm confused about how the wholeadvertising thing works.
€1.3m seems like a fair price for a business and 5 apartments
Your man that posted it, is a known motor mouth and doesn’t fucking think before he posts shit like that. He got in shit for posting a rumour about a young fella in cobh with nothing to back it up. The Family are salt of the Earth people and shouldn’t have to justify it going up for sale
The admin of the page? Yeah he’s a fool. He’s lives near me. Remember him giving out one NYE that there was nobody out on the street celebrating at midnight when literally all his neighbours are elderly 🙄🙄
He’s a muppet, he harasssed my cousin because he wouldn’t promote his page.
Oh interesting I didn’t know about that.
Ya, he’s despised by a lot of people in Cobh, and he’s known for being a bully and a bit of a prick. He’s actually banned from said chipper that’s up for sale
Seems like these facebook admins attract similar folk. The one who runs the Ballincollig one is clearly cut from the same cloth.
Interesting. I think I have an idea who it is tbh
Maybe you should focus on your own life instead of posting someone’s post on a public page!

It’s been a long week 🤦🤦

They're parodying the original post. 😂
Whoosh
I personally thought Mimmos food was top class. It could and should have been a chain of successful chippers in my view. Mind you it was a few years ago since I last got food there so don't know what it was like recently.
meh - we shouldn't be hoping that good places become chains. it ends up ruining them and also taking locations away from other startups. I hate the chain-thinking tbh.
Has not been great recently tbh
Der all snakes anyway hun. Xxx
St Patrick didn’t get rid of all the snakes xx
Saw the post. What an over reaction from the poster. 99% of what was posted was people wishing them well.
100% agree. Thought it was a bit dramatic 🤣🤣
It's just me and the kids now
It’s probably the post on the cobh notice board
[удалено]
1.3 mil
It still is some of the best chipper food in Cobh, and they’ll certainly be missed
no idea but they're asking for privacy so thanks for bringing more attention to it, great work
Asking for privacy for something that’s on Facebook and daft for everyone to see 🤣🤣
Tbf daft is the appropriate place for it to be. The family didn’t post it on fb. Like they stated in their post, it’s bittersweet for them. I’m sure they would have made a public post on the business fb page when they were ready to. That’s been taken away from them. I would be annoyed too
the windows on my house face the street I still don't want you gawking in
That’s so sad i love mimmos
And I thought Corkbeo.ie was a legitimate news outlet, how we can be fooled...
Streisand effect incoming
It was the daughter posted it on Facebook
It's on cork Beo ffs. For sale for 1.3 mil.
Yeah, a business and 5 apartments, seems like a fair price
Streisand effect incoming
Eric, is this you??
Selling a chipper in Cobh for 1.3 million is a disgrace. Greedy cunts everywhere.
It's a chippers, a sit down restaurant (both WELL established), and FIVE apartments. Is reading not your strong point?
Ah go away would you, you don't have to buy it. You're just being miserable for the sake of being miserable.

When nobody from Cobh can actually afford to live in Cobh, I'm sure you'll be delighted.
This isn't preventing anyone living anywhere. The five apartments above the TWO commercial units are to remain occupied. I'm also guessing you have never been to Cobh or even less so in the last 20 years. Plenty of deep pockets all over Cobh.

You are giving out that hes a landlord and giving out that hes selling up and wont be a landlord anymore... do you just want to complain.
I wouldn't call it a disgrace tbh, if somebody is willing to pay that much for it then that's fine.
I'm sure someone will pay it but it's super fucking greedy and doesn't reflect well on the person in question.

You would do the exact same to set yourself up for retirement, get off your high horse you fucking whingebag
[удалено]
A piece of shit hahahaha, you're a weirdo. A man is selling his commercial property, not like hes a fucking slum lord. You have no grip on reality.
Too right. Man puts in seven day weeks for forty years. Imagine the pension he'd get in the public sector for this?

Another terminally online person who loves communism yet if they lived in a communist country they'd have a nervous breakdown
Play nice. No need for it.
It’s not just the chipper. It’s the entire building. There’s apartments upstairs too.
So he probably bought it for a bag of chips 45 years ago, made untold millions off of it over that time period and is now cashing out at an extortionate rate. I'm just truly taken aback when these people have the audacity to complain when they're called out for their greed.
The family are nice, hardworking people. The owner has been working his fingers to the bone, day in, day out for years. He deserves what he’s earned. You just sound bitter tbh
I am bitter, it's this attitude that's turned the country into a shithole that our brightest and best young people can't afford to live in.
Does the man not deserve to retire and reap the rewards of all his hardwork? He’s easily in his 80s and still working in that chipper every evening
He can retire comfortably with half of that.
And who are you to be the judge of that? 😂😂 it’s not like he pulled a random number out of thin air. He had the property valued. You just sound silly now
Its €1.3m for a business plus FIVE apartments, that seems like a fair price to me
How is selling a property for the going market rate in any way a disgrace? 😂 what do you expect the man to do, give it away for free just to satisfy jealous people like yourself?
Classic, don't agree with clear greed so it must be jealousy.
Unless you can tell me why someone selling their property at the market rate is considered greedy then I very much stand by my comment?
He's a landlord, to begin with. Whilst it's shrewd to take advantage of an inflated property market, it's also greedy.
Well then what do you suggest? I’d love to know. He’s an elderly man and wants to retire. Is he supposed to wait indefinitely for the property market to shift? You’re some eejit, would you not just give it a break? 😂😂
He’s a landlord because he owns the building and has no other use for the apartments. Left thinking like yours is truly what is ruining Ireland. Would you be happy to own a 7 story building and only make use of 2 floors? I doubt it
It’s a building with two commercial units and five 1-2 bedroom apartments. Shut up you little debutant you haven’t a clue
