Philly bar legend Fergus 'Fergie' Carey opens two new bars The Goat Philly and The Fairview | FYI Philly
After opening Fergie's Pub 25 years ago, Fergus Carey opened two new spots-one in Fairmount and the other in Center City.

Fergus 'Fergie' Carey came to Philadelphia in 1987 from Dublin, Ireland, and then started a pub opening spree starting with Fergie's Pub 25 years ago.



In the span of four days, he opened two new spots; one in Fairmount, the other in Center City and both offering a generous selection of vegan and vegetarian options such as chili cheeseburgers and empanadas that customers are convinced must have meat.
