Authentic Irish Pub to Open at Downtown Disney
Irish hospitality and a bit of blarney will be coming to
Downtown Disney at the Walt Disney World® Resort in the
form of an authentic Irish pub and restaurant. Scheduled to
open in summer 2005, the pub (which has yet to be named)
will feature the very best of Irish food, flair, heritage
and entertainment.
The Irish culture is known for its warmth, character and
hospitality and the new Downtown Disney pub promises to
deliver an experience immersed in genuine Irish atmosphere
-- from food and drink to music and entertainment.
The pub will be warm and welcoming with one-of-a-kind
fixtures and furnishings -- all designed and built in
Ireland by Irish craftspeople. Additional décor items
include Irish antiques and bric-a-brac.
Traditional and contemporary Irish music, storytelling and
dance will help create a lively social ambience and the
friendly pub staff will bring Emerald Isle charm to
Downtown Disney.
The restaurant's delights will be the work of Chef Kevin
Dundon, one of Ireland's best-known chefs. He will
introduce a menu that blends traditional Irish fare and
fresh ingredients, all with a modern flair. Chef Dundon's
credits include cooking for celebrities and heads of state,
overseeing deluxe international hotel cuisine, opening a
premiere hotel and restaurant and appearing in his own
television series.
The Irish pub will occupy the building that formerly housed
The Jazz Company. Pleasure Island club admission is not
required for entrance to the pub.
