A Scotstown woman has turned her local village pub into a popular new coffee shop that has certainly put the Farney county on the map in recent times.
After returning home from Australia shortly before the outbreak of Covid-19, 27-year-old Laura Creighan decided to turn her grandfather's pub which was sitting idle into a tasty business venture and hasn't looked back since.
Henry's was established back in 1955, however closed its doors a few years ago when her grandfather, the popular Henry McCaffrey became ill.
With Laura at the helm, Henry's has gone from strength to strength, and was recently featured in the Irish Independent's top nine places to grab a coffee in Ireland.
Speaking to Northern Sound, Laura revealed that she has kept some of the original features from her grandfather's pub, something which she believes sets Henry's apart from other establishments.
She added that Henry's holds a "special place" in the hearts of not only locals, but visitors from far and wide.
"Henry's was a small pub back in its day and growing up we were always around the pub but I always thought Scotstown should have a wee coffee shop and I thought that's what Henry's would be perfect for," explained Laura.
Laura also revealed that she has had customers travel up from as far as Dublin just to see what Henry's has to offer. "The support has just been massive," said the 27-year-old. "I've been so overwhelmed and I just hope to continue this success into the future."
