Designing McGrady's Pub
C

onstruction is well underway at Sawgrass Grove and we had
the chance to take a peek into some of the progress being
made at McGrady's Pub. While the teams are working hard on
the building exterior, we've been doing
a little dreaming about the upcoming
experience Villagers are sure to enjoy.
There's something really special
about a meal with friends over pub

local musicians weave a tale of a tune.
A place that feels like home, where good
friends, neighbors and a community
can gather for a
great time. Imagine the hum and buzz of
warm conversation only broken by the
occasional burst of laughter.

Irish Pub. Starting with a picture of a restaurant that had a

Sawgrass Grove.
The restaurant is sure to please with its varied rooms and
different styles and traditional Irish dishes with tasty pulled
pints. McGrady's is so eclectic and so unique to The Villages.
Sounds like fun! We think so too, and we're excited about the
newest experience coming to Sawgrass Grove - McGrady's Pub.
We invite you to join us as we continue to bring updates on
McGrady's and all of the construction progress being made at
Sawgrass Grove.
