James Griffen, TRIM, Meath

When you turn the corner from Haggard St onto High St in Trim, the name of a man will strike you. James Griffin. Embellished above the door of the James Griffin Pub.

For generations, James Griffin himself and our Public House on High St has quenched the thirst of many a dry mouth. Not only was a hand steadied with a fine malt in the James Griffin Pub but a pint of milk, a loaf of bread or a lb of sugar which may have been forgotten were traded in the days long before the era of the 24 hour store.

The doors of the James Griffin first opened in 1904 and remain open on a daily basis today. Beyond the exterior and in a bar that has proudly kept its traditional features is an untold history that many locals are not fully aware of.
