Paddy's Loft   

The history of Paddy's Loft is as Irish as the blarney stone, with proprietor Noel Cannon starting his career in his native County Mayo at the Bungalow and Cellar bars. In addition to cooking up hot plates of chunky beef stew with celery sticks, carrots and potato in a rich, hearty brown sauce, Noel also does his fair share to help the community with enterprises like Project Children, which grants holidays for children from troubled areas in Northern Ireland. He is also responsible for many other local fund-raisers and charity events for victims of 9/11, juvenile diabetes, as well as being a sponsor for many clubs. Noel's wife Mary is native of Co. Kerry, and a fluent Irish language speaker, so if you want to hear the dialect of the old country, ask nicely between mouthfuls of batter-dipped traditional fish and chips with vinegar dressing and brown sauce.
