It’s Friday thank God!! And a lot of you will be planning a night out – hitting the bars and a club but what if you don’t fancy a drink, maybe you’re driving or doing dry January or just don't fancy getting pinned in by crowds on the sauce. Whatever it is – you have very little alternative…until now.It's called 'The Virgin Mary' and opens in February. Muireann spoke to co-owner Oisin Davis about why Ireland needs this now.Oisin is opening it because there’s very little alternative for non-drinkers or people who just don’t fancy an alcoholic pint just cafés lacking atmosphereHe himself drinks but he spoke to friends who don’t and they inspired him and this stat: according to the World Health Organization (WHO) alcohol consumption in Ireland has fallen by 25% since 2005.You'll find it on Capel Street in Dublin 1. It even has it's own signature cocktail...
