It’s on to phase two of the Conor Byrne facelift which includes upgrading the entire facade of the 15-year-old bar.

Over the next two weeks, crews will be demolishing the current facade and building the new one. Once completed, the entire front will be windows with a double door. Construction starts this coming Sunday, October 18th and the bar will be closed through Wednesday, October 21st. Although the work won’t be completed, the general manager Diarmuid Cullen tells us they’ll be “done enough to open up for the weekend.” Earlier this summer the giant refrigerator that was parked in front of the windows was moved to the other end of the bar.
