Finnigan's Wake

03/27/2026

Over the past few weeks, we’ve spent a lot of time listening, learning, and getting back to the fundamentals of what Finnigan’s Wake should be.

Yesterday afternoon we received a 97.5 sanitation rating from the Forsyth County Department of Health and Human Services.

We’re proud of the work behind that but we know it’s just one step.

We’ve made mistakes. We own that. And we’re committed to doing the work every day to earn back the trust of our guests and our community.

Thank you to those who have stuck with us and to those willing to give us another shot. We’re focused on moving forward the right way.

Hanging up my apron.

Two years of laughs, chaos, long shifts, strong drinks, and some of the best people I’ve ever met.

This place gave me more than I ever expected—and I’ll always be grateful for it.

Love you all. I’ll see you on the other side of the bar.
Sláinte 🍻

To the woman who was the backbone of this place…
Since May of 2007, you didn’t just manage a pub….you built a home.
You were the steady hand in the chaos, the calm in the storm, the one who held it all together when the rest of us were barely hanging on…..literally super glue.

You taught us how to work hard, how to show up for each other, how to care about this place like it was our own. You made sure the doors opened, the lights stayed on, and the spirit of this pub never dimmed—even on the hardest days.

There are thousands of stories in these walls, and your fingerprints are on every single one of them. Every laugh, every late night, every tradition—we have you to thank for so much of it.
You were a mentor, a protector, a leader, a friend… family.
There is no version of this place that exists without you in it. And while this chapter is ending, the impact you’ve made here will live on in every person who walked through those doors and felt what you built.

Thank you for your loyalty. Thank you for your strength. Thank you for loving this place and all of us the way you did.
We are better because of you.

Once a Finn’s girl, always a Finn’s girl. ❤️
Sláinte to you and everything that comes next

We love you Karamy!!

Four years of laughter, long nights, inside jokes, regulars who became familiar faces, and memories that will last far beyond these walls.

We love you Karlin💚☘️ Best of luck on your next chapter!

When the dip looks this good, double-dipping feels justified 😌
