The Dead Rabbit: Belfast owners of famous New York bar end their partnership
The Belfast-born founders of New York Irish bar The Dead Rabbit have announced they have ended their partnership at the venue.
Sean Muldoon and Jack McGarry, who met as barmen in Belfast’s Merchant Hotel, said the change was a “natural development” and that there was no animosity between them.
Jack McGarry is to continue running The Dead Rabbit in New York’s financial district, while Sean Muldoon is to open new venue Hazel And Apple in Charleston in South Carolina.
However, according to industry magazine Drinks International, Mr Muldoon will keep his shares in The Dead Rabbit, while the bar’s parent company is an investor in the Charleston venue.
