Arcana: Sean Patrick’s Could Grow

Golden Gaming’s recent rebranding of four Irish pubs under the Sean Patrick’s moniker could be the start of a larger growth strategy, says company COO Steve Arcana. The owner of PT’s Pubs and Sierra Gold bought the four Nevada pubs from the Morrissey Group.

Golden Gaming has reopened four Irish pubs formerly owned by the Morrissey Group under a single name: Sean Patrick’s.

??In September, the parent company of slot taverns PT’s Pubs and Sierra Gold bought Sean Patrick’s, Molly Malones, Morrissey’s and Kavanaugh’s. It won state approval of a gaming license for the new brand on September 25.??

Golden Gaming, a regional tavern and slot route operator, began with 17 PT’s locations in 2001, and now operates nearly 50 properties in Southern Nevada alone, reports Vegasinc.com.??

Steve Arcana, the company’s chief operating officer, said the company may open additional Sean Patrick locations. “If it takes off and it’s accepted nicely in the market, then I would see us being able to grow that brand,” he said.
