These buildings date back far longer than Mr. Flood's Party. Russell is correct though, it is the most popular answer to "What was this before the West End Grill?" We pay homage to Mr. Flood's Party by hanging a poster with Edwin Arlington Robinson's poem "Mr. Flood's Party" on our wall. Before it was Mr. Floods it was a German Bar in the 1940's/50's called Joe's Bar (I think). Briefly after Mr. Flood's Party it was Pauley's bar.
