Historic Interest
Circa 1900 Grade B2 Listed, reference HB26/24/008
Two star - A pub interior of very special national historic interest
Listed status: B2
Built in 1901 by entrepreneur Frank O’Neill and closely resembling the Crown and the Fort in the way it was fitted out. There are five snugs (one still has a door) facing the servery across an area of open, terrazzo flooring. There is evidence that there was a sixth at one time. The counter is original but the bar-back is a replacement. The old one was a casualty of the Troubles like other parts of the pub (e.g. note much new woodwork in the snugs, and the damage on the corner of the building caused by a rocket). The upper parts of the building are supported by three fine mirror-faced columns.

The other best remaining examples of snugs in Northern Ireland are at the Crown, Belfast, Northern Ireland;
Ronnie Drew's, Belfast, Northern Ireland; Mandeville Arms, Portadown; Fort Bar, West Belfast; Blakes of the Hollow, Enniskillen and the rare survivor Carraghers, Camlough, Co. Armagh being a small village pub.
