New Panmure Street venue has created 20 jobs in former BrewDog premises
Malones Dundee officially opened its doors on the night of 12 November, bringing live music, major sport and Irish hospitality to Panmure Street following a £300,000 transformation of the former BrewDog premises. The opening was attended by hundreds of guests.
The launch marks the arrival of the Malones Irish pub group in Dundee, joining its existing venues in Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Leigh and Glasgow. The venue combines the atmosphere of a traditional Irish pub with live entertainment, major sporting fixtures, Irish drinks and home-cooked pub food, and is looking to establish itself as a new destination for the city’s social scene.

The pub has created 20 jobs and will be the only pub in Dundee to offer Guinness, Beamish, Murphy’s and Tennent’s Stouts all under one roof. Live music will be central to the offering, with performances planned five nights a week and some evenings featuring more than one act. Following a strong response to its call for local bands and musicians, Malones Dundee said it is keen to give Dundee talent a regular platform and make live entertainment a major part of its offering.

The pub is also establishing links with the local community, with sponsorship agreements already in place with Abertay Football Club, Abertay Basketball Club and Dundee University Women’s Rugby.
Simon Keane, Director of Malones, said: “We’re absolutely delighted with how Malones Dundee has turned out. A huge amount of work has gone into transforming the venue, and we couldn’t be happier with the finished result. The turnout for our opening night was fantastic, and it was brilliant to see so many people coming through the doors to celebrate with us. We’re looking forward to building on that and making Malones a firm favourite in the city.”
