Burren, a great rocky expanse in Ireland's County Clare, is
one of the world's truly unique places. Its ancient, awe inspiring
stone structures hold secrets from the past that may never
be unraveled. Closer to home, The Burren, Irish Pub and Restaurant
in Somerville's Davis Square, is now one of Boston's truly
unique places. It captures the mythical nature of its namesake
with a rich old world feel that takes hold and slowly pulls
you toward another time.
|
| Open since January 1996, the Burren's history reaches back
farther than that. It is actually the realization of a dream
shared by two young Irish musicians, Tommy
McCarthy and Louise Costello. Tommy and Louise began playing
together nearly 10 years earlier. Today people can gather
to enjoy a drink, the warmth of good friends and the excitement
of live traditional Irish music, in the Burren, a dream come
true. |
