    I've been in two of their pubs, The Claddagh Ring and The Quays. Both decent pubs and fairly lively. All their bar staff are Irish.

    They're bars are not based in Central London but in areas, which traditionally hold established irish communities.

    Good luck.

    Not sure if Pat McDonagh has an interest in the group, but it's definitely legit.
    When I lived in London for a couple of years in the nineties, the Claddagh Ring was one of my favourite haunts, and it's a very decent and well-managed pub.
    The group (used to be 3 pubs, not sure if there are more now) is managed by Finbar who is originally from Galway county, and has been with them for 20ish years. He likes to hire Irish barstaff because of their professionalism and experience working in a busy environment.
    I was in school with Finbar's brother, so I am a little biased, but I would have no problem in recommending them to anyone.

    The Claddagh Ring Group are totally legitimate.
    I have drunk in The Claddagh Ring pub in Hendon, London. Its a well run pub with good Irish bar staff. The owner has a preference for employing Irish bar staff, to keep the theme of an Irish pub.
