The landlord of Bewley’s Cafe on Grafton Street in Dublin has brought a legal action seeking alleged rent arrears of €747,000 and possession of the landmark property. Ross Awlyard BL, instructed by solicitor Barbara Galvin of Eversheds, for the landlord, said the matter was urgent from his client’s perspective. The annual rent due was about €1.4 million, to be paid on a quarterly basis. As a result, rent, plus interest, totalling some €747,000 was due and owing to RGRE and the landlord did not have possession of the property, counsel said. The judge gave RGRE permission to apply next Monday to have the action admitted to the Commercial Court list.
