Fanny O’Deas in Ireland
Ad 728×90
The country of Ireland is known for many things, from its world-class writers and singers to its award winning actors and playwrights. But there is one iconic institution you can find in any corner of the globe, and that is the pub, with its welcoming charm and decor, and its full-hearted embrace of music.
Perhaps this is singularly personified in Fanny O'Dea's (pronounced DEES), a 17th-century pub that is still operated by the same family, for nine generations and counting. Not only is this family-run business, perhaps the longest continually operated pub in all of Ireland.
It also contains a few hidden treasures as well, if one knows where to look. The first one is easy to locate, but a rarity nonetheless, and that is its thatched roof.
