Krispy Kreme has apologised for noise at its Blanchardstown drive-thru (above)

Further to disturbances outside the 24/7 drive-thru at Krispy Kreme in Blanchardstown, Dublin…

“We anticipated a warm welcome for Krispy Kreme in Ireland and have long wanted to open a store here, but the response has been way ahead of our most optimistic expectations.

For the customers coming into our store in Blanchardstown, the smiles and joy have been great to see. For the most part too, our drive thru has been a success.

But we know that the late-night noise has been an upset for our neighbours.

Some customers have been beeping their horns and disturbing families in nearby apartment complexes.

Most importantly, we are saying to our neighbours, we’ve listened and we’re making changes immediately.”

Richard Cheshire, CEO, Krispy Kreme UK & Ireland.

Krispy Kreme has this morning confirmed:

‘Closing of our 24hr drive thru which will now be open between the hours of 6am and 11.30pm.’

‘Continuation of our Traffic Management Action Team who have been working night and day to examine alternative options in relation to late night queue management that allows customers to enjoy our doughnuts without impacting local residents.’

‘Ongoing discussions with Fingal County Council, Blanchardstown Centre Management, local Garda Traffic Corp and Community Liaison with regard to options for consideration.’

‘Commitment to working with the Gardaí, Local Councillors and the Blanchardstown Centre Management to find a long term solution that works for everyone.’

Fight!

      A proposal to the residents living near this mess.
      If this lunacy happens again, go out to the car park and start taking photos of license plates and faces of drivers. If anyone asks what you’re doing say you’re setting up a facebook page.

      You don’t actually have to do anything, just the thought of being on a facebook page like that should be embarrassing enough for them.

    All that needed to happen was to send one Garda to the area with his notebook to write tickets

    The rules of the road say its illegal to beep your horn between 11.30 pm and 7 am unless it’s an emergency, and Im pretty sure its illegal to beep your horn in a stationary vehicle.

    but I suppose the Gardai, their morale is still low, and for some reason they dont seem to do any work when their morale is low…

      They don’t like getting caught lying about breathalysers (and everything else)

      Can’t believe people behaved like such animals that they had to close the 24hr drive-through. Honestly, lads.

        It’s worth noting that FM104 phone show were encouraging the beeping since its opening..

    Fair play to them. This is an unexpectedly good response. Anyone still complaining about the evil globalhypermegacorp really needs to look closer to home and the complete bell ends who caused them to have to do this

    Just get a guard stationed in the car park doing random drug driving tests and the Krispy Kreme will see their late night profits plummet.

    As Chris Rock once said “I knew there was crack in them Krispy Kreme doughnuts”, or something similar

      Spoken like a man who’s never seen a packed Griffith Avenue on match day with culchies eating sandwiches out of their car boots.

    Top notch headline lads, since no one mentioned it.

    I got a good giggle out of it. #topical
