The Skellig is a Pub

After being told we were meeting loads of people at The Skellig for brunch, I quickly asked Google what to expect. Google promised skellig is some kind of rock from the sea. Three extra minutes of deeper detective work uncovered that skelligs are actually a group of rocks near Ireland. Pubs and Ireland go together, so The Skellig is a sensible pub name.

Was there a reason? Validity of some sort? Absolutely not. I'm pretty sure the drive-by glance of the parking lot had everything to do with my nonsense answer of no, which was horribly unjust. I...
