History of The Blarney Irish Pub

Visiting over 35 pubs in Ireland in March of 2006 inspired owner Ed Beczynski to open an Irish Pub in Downtown Toledo, Ohio. Finding the right building in Downtown was the key, if opening an Irish Pub with an old feel to it was going to work. The building was found by publisher and owner of The Toledo Free Press, Tom Pounds who The Blarney and The Toledo Free Press bought and split the buillding together. With the Free Press above The Blarney it was a perfect fit.

The Blarney Irish Pub opened in November 6 2006. All the furniture and many items on the walls were bought in Ireland and shipped to Toledo to make our guest feel like there at a pub near The Blarney Castle in County Cork Ireland. While in Ireland Ed learned how important was pouring a perfect pint of Guinness and in the first 5 months has sold over 150 kegs of this roasted barley drink!

Also while in Ireland, Ed realized that what made a pub great was the music.

The Blarney Irish pub has live music Thursday thru Saturday. Celtic Irish bands play first Saturday of each month with bands from Canada, Detroit, Ann Arbor and Toledo playing and rocking The Blarney.
