Update – Looks like this new Irish pub will be going into the old Dorset Hall spot at 367 Neponset Ave. Dorset Hall recently closed is door and it now appears that the spot is undergoing some renovations to make way for McGonagle’s.

Looks like a new Irish pub is coming to the neighborhood!
According to our friends at Boston Restaurant Talk, McGonagle’s Pub is planning to open in Dorchester! Oran McGonagle of the East Coast Tavern Group (Roxanne’s, Carrie Nation, Scholars) is behind the new spot. McGonagle is also involved with The Dubliner, which just won the Best Irish Pub in Boston! So this sounds promising!
The new Irish pub is hoping to open in the fall. An exact location has not been announced yet. So stay tuned
Another Irish pub – Scobie’s is opening soon in Adams Village. Get the details here!
