Ballymoney · Antrim & the Causeway CoastSurveyed

Motorcycle racer Joey Dunlop bought this Seymour Street bar after he and his wife had made it their local, and the family has kept it running since. His daughter Joanne McCammond now works behind the bar, with two of Joey's racing motorcycles on permanent display alongside his trophies and career memorabilia lining the walls. The pub sits by Ballymoney's railway platform, drawing a mix of long-standing locals and visiting fans of Dunlop's road-racing record, with pool and sports screens for regular trade alongside a function room for larger bookings. Nothing about the fit-out has been modernised into a themed venue; the bikes and trophies simply accumulated over decades of ownership by one family, giving the room a lived-in, unstaged feel that distinguishes it from tied-house bars in the area.
