Rooney’s Irish Pub

Restaurant

The realization of this authentic Irish Pub involved a meticulous research process specific to the project type, resulting in the incorporation of various distinctive features. Our in-depth exploration led to the creation of several intimate spaces within the establishment, including the quintessential Irish snug, providing patrons with a cozy and private ambiance. Traditional lighting elements were thoughtfully integrated, enhancing the pub's authentic atmosphere. Additionally, our focus extended beyond the ambiance, encompassing the coordination of technical aspects essential to a fully functional brewery. This involved not only ensuring the seamless operation of the working brewery but also the integration of a full commercial kitchen and a well-equipped bar. The synthesis of these elements culminated in the creation of an Irish Pub that not only pays homage to its cultural roots but also provides a delightful and immersive experience for patrons, blending tradition with modern functionality.
