After five-and-a-half years in business and a highly publicized effort to avoid eviction last July, Liam Flynn’s Ale House has closed for good.

Owner Liam Flynn posted a farewell message on Facebook last night inviting patrons to visit the Irish/Scottish pub at 22 W. North Avenue for one last pint.

“It is with a heavy heart that I say this,” he wrote. “This is the last night of Liam Flynn’s Ale House at the North Avenue location! If you can’t make it, look for us in the future. You have been the best friends ever. I know the pub has meant a lot to a lot of people. We did everything here and had joy doing it. Well, anyway, so long and thanks for all the fish! Slainte mhath.”
