PLAY: The Shaskeen Pub (NH)

Opened in November 2005, the Shaskeen was the creation of traditional Irish musician and pub owner, Tommy McCarthy, and world renowned flautist of the Chieftains, Matt Molloy. Bringing together the traditional Irish concepts of public houses, food and music under one roof, the Shaskeen follows a lineage of great Irish pubs established by Tommy and Matt, such as the Burren, the Skellig, and Matt Molloy's.

Today, with their over 40 years of combined restaurant and bar experience, current owners Josh Ames, Jim Pliakos, Neal Brown and Miketon Graton strive to make sure the traditional Irish concept stays alive, while adding modern touches to the food, beverage, and music aspects. In doing so, the Shaskeen has made itself into a venue of firsts. Bringing world renown musical acts to New Hampshire like Amigo The Devil, Derek Warfield & The Young Wolfe Tones, KRS-One , Mobb Deep, Tim Barry, and soooo Many More!
