The notice on the door reads "Opened but not finished". O'Shea's Bar has been closed since last month - to undergo a major refurbishment - encorporating the existing bar with rooms that were adjacent to it. The result is fantastic, resulting in a spacious bar with full air-conditioning giving the punter comfort while he/she 'sups'. The 'not finished' part of the notice means that some painting is still outstanding and the pictures are to be re-hung on the wall - nothing else. Last Friday evening at 8.00pm the doors re-opened for business as usual and locals and visitors alike joind in wishing Gerry and Betty (pictured on left) all the best.

| New door opening to allow for wheelchair access. There is also a wheelchair accessible toilet installed (Cork Co. Council please take note - you promised Castletownbere to upgrade/build Public Toilets to incorporate a Wheelchair accessible Toilet five years ago - we are now in the New Millennium and we are still waiting - not good enough). | One of O'Shea's loyal locals: Peadar Lowney, Castletownbere, pictured on Fri. night at the re-opening proudly sporting an O'Shea's Polo Shirt. and enjoing his pint. |

Pictured left - the main area
of the bar - with plenty of room.
The main bar is tastefully finished with natural
polished wood which is also continued in the bar stools, tables and low
stools. When fully completed/decorated, the ambiance of the old
bar will blend into the new and make it a very relaxing and comfortable
place to meet friends and enjoy your 'tipple' be it water, a mineral,
coffee or something stronger. Congratulation and the very best of luck for the future to Gerry, Betty & Christina. |
