The Market Inn stands on St Patrick's Street in Draperstown, a Sperrins market town laid out under the Drapers' Company in the seventeenth century. The Regan family has run the bar for around sixty years, and locally it is still known simply as Regans. It operates as a traditional local, drawing custom from the surrounding farming townlands as well as walkers and cyclists using the nearby Sperrins routes. The pub serves draught beer and spirits from a single bar area, with regular customers reporting occasional live music sessions. Food hygiene inspection records confirm the premises remains actively trading under current management. It sits a short walk from Draperstown's Market Square and the town's other independent shops and services, in the shadow of Slieve Gallion to the east.
