Tributes have been poured in for a legendary Dublin publican who sadly passed away earlier this week.
Liam O'Dwyer, who lived in Sandymount, was well known for setting up Cafe en Seine, Zanzibar and Break for the Border. He passed away at his home on Tuesday surrounded by his loving family following a short illness.
Mr O'Dwyer and his younger brother Des joined the pub business in the 1980s, expanding and refurbishing O'Dwyer's Bar on Mount Street and turning it into the popular after-office haunt, Howl at the Moon. The brothers would then purchase Bartley Dunne's bar on Stephen Street and revamped it into Break for The Border, before next setting up the lavish Kasbah-themed Zanzibar on Ormond Quay Lower and faux art nouveau-interiored Cafe en Seine on Dawson Street.
