Fred Hill, a player for the Philadelphia Eagles, had a daughter, Kim, suffering from leukaemia, which prompted the team to raise in excess of $100,000 dollars to support the hospital. This was met with much gratitude from Dr. Evans and her team but also with a request for another $32,000 to fund a house in which families of children in the hospital could get proper rest, away from the ward. This request was met by Ed Rensi, an area manager for McDonald's. The company offered to donate the proceeds from their 'shamrock shake' to the cause. In return Ed asked that the house be known as the Ronald McDonald House. On 15 October 1974, the first Ronald McDonald House opened its doors in Philadelphia. In 1984 the Ronald McDonald charities was officially established in memory of McDonald’s Corporation founder Ray Kroc, a strong advocate for children.

  • Q14 Drinks Menu
    MORRISON COCKTAILS Our Morrison cocktail offers have been inspired by the structure of traditional Irish drinking songs. Starting with light, harmonious, aperitif-style drinks in the ‘Intro’ through to the bass-heavy, rousing digestifs in the ‘Finale’, we are certain that within the list, you’ll be able to find a cocktail that sings to each and every occasion. Our classic cocktails have been gently twisted to strike a chord with you ‘Morrison style’, remixing your favourite cocktails to make them as surprising and exciting as the first time you sampled them. INTRO BOW STREET JULEP 11 In 1780, just a few blocks up the road from the hotel, Mr. John Jameson established the Bow Street distillery. We have coaxed out some of the fruitier notes of his whiskey with our home-made apricot and marmalade syrup, added in some angostura and rhubarb bitters, swizzled with mint and crushed ice. FINAL STRAW 11 Absolut vodka combined with fine vermouth, fresh muddled apple juice and crowned with prosecco to deliver a light and refreshing number. VERSE RED VELVET BAND 11 Absolut vodka, Aperol and home-made black cherry and Guinness syrup are topped with prosecco to create a harmoniously fruity fizz. GIRL FROM MARS 11 A short and eloquent combination of Absolut vodka, mandarin liqueur, jasmine, honey, lemon and seasonal berries. CRAZY LOVE 12 A satisfying mix of fresh raspberries, lime, elderflower liqueur, sugar and our favourite Brazilian spirit, Fubá Cachaça. CHORUS DARK ROSALEEN 12 “Shall glad your heart, Shall give you hope, Shall give you health, and help, and hope, My Dark Rosaleen”.

Fred Hill, a player for the Philadelphia Eagles, had a daughter, Kim, suffering from leukaemia, which prompted the team to raise in excess of $100,000 dollars to support the hospital. This was met with much gratitude from Dr. Evans and her team but also with a request for another $32,000 to fund a house in which families of children in the hospital could get proper rest, away from the ward. This request was met by Ed Rensi, an area manager for McDonald's. The company offered to donate the proceeds from their 'shamrock shake' to the cause. In return Ed asked that the house be known as the Ronald McDonald House. On 15 October 1974, the first Ronald McDonald House opened its doors in Philadelphia. In 1984 the Ronald McDonald charities was officially established in memory of McDonald’s Corporation founder Ray Kroc, a strong Kim Hill advocate for children.
