The Lucky Shag Waterfront Bar takes it's name from the cormorant bird that is often seen on and around the river from the bar itself.
Word has it that when the owners were sat at the bar trying to decide upon a suitable name a shag swooped down into the water and emerged with two fishes, somebody immediately said "Gee that's a lucky shag !" , and the name was born. Of course others tell a different story as to the origins of the name and we'll leave you to figure that one out !!
The Lucky Shag Bar has grown in the last seven years from a small 30 – 40 person drinking hole that only the very few knew about to it's present size and known to a much larger amount of people and at the same time become a firm favourite of locals and tourists alike.
