Fire breaks out at Conor McGregor’s Black Forge this morning as Gardai and fire services tackle the blaze

Emergency services were at the scene of a fire at a Dublin pub owned by retired MMA fighter Conor McGregor.

Flames were visible coming from the Black Forge Inn on the Drimnagh Road in Dublin 12 early on Friday morning, with smoke seen emerging from the entrance to the building.

Dublin Fire Brigade and gardaí were at the scene of the small fire on Friday morning.

Workmen could be seen later in the morning repairing damage to the entrance of the Crumlin pub.

McGregor bought the Black Forge Inn for €2m in 2020 and later spent an additional €1m on renovations.

In 2022, the pub was targeted in a suspected petrol bomb attack, but the bomb failed to ignite and no damage was caused in the incident.

The Black Forge, gardaí and Dublin Fire Brigade have been contacted for comment.
