It’s a swift coincidence that standing in the middle of historic downtown Murphy, North Carolina – a tiny town with an Irish name – is an Irish pub and restaurant for all to enjoy. The small town in the westernmost portion of the state has a year-round population of merely 1,700 people, but sees regular tourism surges throughout the year. If you’re among the many that find yourself seeking a getaway in this mountain town, then be sure to visit the Parson’s Pub for home-cooked Irish food.
