Fagan’s is one of Dublin’s most renowned pubs and a well known landmark in Drumcondra.
Drumcondra, on the outskirts of Dublin, was a very fashionable and sought after place to live in at the turn of the century. Many well known Victorian painters and watercolorists resided in the area due to its proximity with the Botanical Gardens. On March 2, 1894 James Joyce, one of ten children, moved with his parents to No 2 Millbourne Avenue, Drumcondra. At that time the population in Drumcondra was only eight thousand people. Originally Drumcondra Road was one of the four great roads of Ancient Ireland, the Slighe Mhidhluachra, which entered the city from the North.
Although restored in recent times, this house still remains one of the great Victorian pubs, quaint, unpretentious and relaxing, whilst still capturing the austerity of Victorian life.The people of Drumcondra are very proud of this pub and deservedly so. Over the years many famous actors, politicians, comedians, foreign dignitaries, musicians and other assorted celebrities have passed through our doors.
