The birth
of a Pub
M
adra Rua Irish Pub is the brainchild of Stephen O‘Connor. Having grown up in Dublin, Ireland
(not Dublin, Ohio), Stephen moved to America after getting his engineering degree from
the University College Dublin. Where would an Irishman go if he were to move to the states? Well,
Stephen went to Nantucket and managed construction projects all over the northeast. Then, he
and his lovely, accomplished designer, wife, Julie moved here to the Lowcountry.
With the burning desire to build a ”real Irish pub”, Stephen and Julie began to look for a
location and began designing the ”proper pub”. You are currently sitting in the results! He could‘ve
named the place O‘Connor‘s, but where is the burning desire in that? Why the name Madra Rua?
Once again, Stephen wanted it to be authentic. Spence, the co-creator of Madra Rua and inventor
of Mobius® Beer, just wanted to open a pub because he likes beer.
This is one race of people for whom psychoanalysis is of no use whatsoever.
— Sigmund Freud, about the Irish
