Bunratty’s

Dennis Mullins opened Bunratty’s in the heavily Irish Allston/Brighton neighborhood in 1969 and a legend was born. In it’s heyday, the venue several bands a night, 365 days a year. Mickey O’Halloran was the booking manager and largely credited with catapulting Bunratty’s into top-tier showcase for emerging and nationally-known bands. Faces in the crowd included Bono, Slash, Jethro Tull, Motorhead, Peter Wolf and countless other luminaries who came to party and indulge in the craziness that ensued on a nightly basis. There are simply TOO MANY stories to tell from the old days on Harvard Street in Allston to fit here!
