S0001 Kehoes

The first pub on the southside! Well, not really but the first on the southside register under the older system anyway.

Recently the winner of a Best Pub award for 200 years of the LVA, Kehoes actually predates the foundation of that organisation. A warren of rooms and snugs, not much has changed here since the 1960s and a lot of the decor is Victorian. Like the previous premises of the day, this can be very busy at peak periods but you may find somewhere to perch. Bit dear, likely a reflection of its location and popularity more than anything else.

As part of the Louis Fitzgerald chain, it was of interest to me to see many familiar faces on the staff - quite a few who worked in my local (The Roost, not in Dublin and hence not going to appear on here) are now here.
