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 atmosphere

He 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...
