The pub was established on the ground floor of the Hannig Building, in the heart of Austin’s historic 6th Street Entertainment District.
The building, designed by Jasper Preston, dates back to 1875 and was built by cabinet maker and undertaker extraordinaire Joseph Hannig.
Hannig was the husband of Susannah Dickinson, the last Alamo survivor, whose home now rests on a site just a few blocks away.
Everything else you see throughout the Pub came from Ireland and was built in place.
