N1098 Parnell Heritage Pub

One of the JG Mooney pubs which still stands as a pub premises, this was still branded The Parnell Mooney until its closure for a redevelopment which has yet to occur in the mid 2000s. In 2015, presumably accepting that the development is many years away, the pub reopened.

Fully renovated at the time in a sympathetic style to the age of the pub, it now trades on its history and has a large board in the doorway detailing this, however neglecting to mention the JG Mooney era entirely, thus leaving out the bit most of interest to a pub historian!

Food service is a core part of the operation here, but they are more than willing to let you sit at a table to drink - unlike some food-centric pub I've been in recently that shove you towards bar seating or a perch somewhere. Service is friendly and efficient, including getting pints only on draught on a different floor without issue.

The smallest toilet cubicle I have seen on land (aircraft would beat it easily) features in what must be - there are signs telling you they now have one there - a newly added gents toilets on the top floor.
