Joxer Daly's?

Sidd

Anyone know that the story with this pub on Dorset St. is?

Passed by today for the first time in a couple of weeks and it's been renamed "Long Island Bar"???

Been Joxers as long as I've known it (30 odd yeards), shame.

same owner that has it, just the name has changed! I was wondering this the other day as well

Apparently the Long Island bar is what it was originally called years ago.

Here it is as the Long Island Bar in the 60s.

It changed just after the all Ireland finals.

Wow, great picture, by the looks of it, was taken from the front door of where I lived until earlier this year!!! any other such photo's?? would love to see other parts of the area from that time.

Any idea when it changed to Joxers and what happened the upper floors from the original building? Seems like the first two floors are the same today as in the pic.

I got that from Dublin City Council's digital collection - hours of amusement. They have a whole folder of old pubs.

Another small loss for public memory of Seán O'Casey's Dublin. I was speaking with 30 inner city kids a couple of weeks ago about the 1913 Lockout and not a single one had ever heard of Seán O'Casey, never mind read his amazing plays and their huge social consciousness. When I was in school we all studied an O'Casey play.
