LOADING
Over the 45 years that have elapsed since, the pub has seen several renovations and transformations but has always retained an identity that is palpable to both locals and visitors. That identity is due in no small part to the family ethos of the pub, with Dan's sons Donal, Paul and Alan all involved in the management of the business. Another brother Peter successfully ran his own branch of Finnegans in Valencia, Spain for twenty years, while Dan's brothers Ned, James and Hugh were all proprietors of well known pubs in Dublin and Wicklow.
