Crews arrived at the Stubborn Goat Gastropub on Grafton Street to find heavy smoke.
“(Firefighters) made a quick entry and we knocked down the bulk of the fire,” said Turner.
“Now we’re searching to see if it’s gone any deeper into the building because it’s an older building and there’s a lot of construction materials that are difficult to find fire in.”
Fire crews called to the Stubborn Goat Gastropub.
