A fast-growing chain of Irish pubs is planning to open a venue in Harrogate.

Promising a “A taste of Ireland, right on your doorstep”, Katie O’Brien’s is already recruiting for staff.

Modelled on the pubs of Dublin’s Temple Bar, the company says: “Katie O’Brien’s is your new home for great craic, live music and the perfect pint.”

Katie O’Brien’s already has bars in Leicester, Newcastle, Durham and Nottingham.

A venue is due to open in Greek Street, Leeds, on October 11.

The Harrogate branch would be its first in North Yorkshire.

However, a spokesperson for Katie O’Brien’s owners, the Newcastle-based Innvest Group, says they cannot yet reveal the location of the proposed Harrogate venue or its opening date, but they will in time.

However, recruitment for it is already underway, with a general manager role paying £36-38,000 a year and a deputy manager role paying £28-30,000.

The spokesperson said they were keen to see Harrogate open soon after Leeds, but they could comment on any plans for York.

In the meantime, Katie O’Brien’s urges people are urged to sign up for its newsletter and a free pint of Guiness!
