The business has a full seven-day bar licence, a restaurant certificate along with a music and singing licence. The ground floor has seating capacity for 120 and a private diningroom on the first floor can accommodate a further 80 people.

The building has a fully fitted bar, kitchen and staff quarters and is held on a 25-year lease from September 2010, at a rent of €130,000 per year. The rent is reviewed every five years.
