Enter through the modern facade on Thomas St and step back in time. John’s Bar is a mish mash of salvaged seating, cosy nooks, crannies, snugs, and a long central bar counter filled to the brim with beverages, old school sweets, and haberdashery bits and bobs!
Located in the heart of the Liberties on historic Thomas Street, John's Bar & Haberdashery occupies buildings dating back to the 1600s. The buildings date to the 1600s, standing on a tannery site traced back to the 13th–14th century. An 18-month archaeological excavation on site recovered over 4,000 artefacts.
Named after John Creeth, a haberdasher who ran his shop under lease at 61 Thomas St in the 1850s, the pub aims to preserve the history of the Liberties and celebrate one of its oldest trades.
Open daily with weekly live music, dog-friendly, Wowburger if you’re hungry, pre gig pints and post gig pints. Sure, what’s not to love?
