MISSISSAUGA, ON – May 30, 2011 – Mississauga residents who would like to enjoy a pint along with warm Irish hospitality, live entertainment and delicious Irish fare don’t need to bother with expensive travel to the Emerald Isle.

“We’re excited to bring Fionn MacCool’s to Clarkson and we look forward to it becoming a favourite community gathering spot in the weeks and months to come,” says Grant Cobb, Senior Vice President, Brand Management for Prime Restaurants Inc. “We are looking forwarding to watching our guests lingering on our enormous patio during the approaching warm days and evenings and discovering why Fionn MacCool’s Clarkson is more than a typical pub.”
