Jack McGarry The Dead Rabbit

On this episode of Navigating New York, I got to visit the world renowned Dead Rabbit Pub in Lower Manhattan to chat with Managing Director and Co-founder, Jack McGarry. 

This episode is one of the most powerful interviews I have ever had the pleasure of hosting. I chat to Jack about his story; from being a glass collector in his local family pub in Belfast at age 15, to being awarded world’s best bartender in his early 20’s in New York, to where he is now – a dynamic, influential entrepreneur on a mission to redefine the Irish Hospitality experience and promote the ‘Ireland of today’ on a global scale. 

Jack speaks with rigorous honesty about his journey – the good parts and the bad. He shares some valuable advice on what it takes to be successful in running and scaling a business (Jack was recently named in Crain's New York Business 2023 class of 40 Under 40)  as well as his own methods for constant self-development and evolvement.

Jack is making a major contribution to Irish Culture in New York and his mission to challenge the stereotypes and synthetic representations of Ireland across America is one that is consistently building momentum and recognition. On top of being extremely inspiring, Jack is also one of the humblest people I have ever come across. It was a real pleasure to get to sit in the Dead Rabbit and chat with Belfast’s own, Jack McGarry.
