Inside Conor McGregor's Dublin pub empire including popular spot that hasn't opened its doors

Conor McGregor has started a pub empire of sorts in Dublin after a busy couple of years.

The Dubliner will return to the UFC later this year when he fights Michael Chandler.

And while McGregor has not been active in the UFC he has built a Dublin empire.

McGregor currently owns three pubs in Dublin and we have a look at all three pubs.

The Black Forge Inn

Those ever looking to grab a picture of McGregor would be best served stopping by The Black Forge Inn.

The pub opened its doors in 2021 and McGregor reportedly splashed the cas when it came to acquiring and renovating the Dublin pub with the MMA star dropping over €2.5m.

The Drimnagh pub has already won awards for its food and has also been hailed as one of Dublin's top party spots.

The popular spot has also welcomed a number of celebs through its doors such as Kevin Hart, Coolio and Dan Bilzerian.

The Marble Arch

McGregor also purchased the Marble Arch pub in Drimnagh.

McGregor dropped a seven figure sum on the Drimnagh pub and it is the site where McGregor punched innocent Desmond Keogh in April 2019.

McGregor was fined €1,000 for the incident.

And the Dubliner shut the doors of he pub with the MMA star reportedly planning to redevelop.

The Waterside, Howth

McGregor recently put pen to paper on his purchase of the Waterside in Howth.

McGregor's father Tony is regularly in the area as he docks his yacht in the Howth Yacht club.

The doors still remained closed for the spot that sits smack bang in the middle of Howth's main street.
