McFinn’s Traditional Irish Pub in downtown Barrie offers a warm, upscale experience rooted in community. Opened in the historical Five Points (Simcoe Hotel) building, it serves Irish inspired dishes like smoked salmon boxty, gourmet burgers and creative pub fare. Owned by a native of Northern Ireland, McFinn’s boasts unique architecture and a welcoming atmosphere that has long since been a Barrie landmark. The Simcoe Hotel building is a flatiron building, originally built in 1856. A renovation was designed by architect Michael Shanacy in 1877.
