The article's infobox gives the year only - founded 1840 in Dublin - so the pin takes that year's last day.[1]The Bewley family began dealing tea in Dublin in 1840, having broken the East India Company's grip on the trade by shipping direct from China, and the cafés followed. The Grafton Street room, with its Harry Clarke windows and open fires, became the city's front parlour.
