Where the Irish go for a pint

The Banshee Bar

When the Gaelic Athletic Association comes to town for a traditional sporting match, theres one pub its members are bound to frequent: the Banshee. The place carries an abundance of proof. There are so many signed and framed jerseys emblazoned with the likes of Ard Mhacha and An Mhi that the bar ran out of wall space and started placing them on the ceiling. Owned by two Irish immigrants and an American, the bar also reflects the local sports scene, with David Ortiz and Tom Brady jerseys next to the door.
