“Wonderful gem in Oakland's Jack London Square that pours the best pint of Guinness in the Bay Area. Great cozy atmosphere, helpful service, and delicious authentic food. In addition to Guinness and Irish Whiskey, my wife and I shared a plate of fish and chips, which made the perfect afternoon meal. Can't wait to come back again and again.“
“The first time we came here it was a rainy night and packed. The music was going and it seemed like a local crowd. Tonight it was a little less crowded but just as lovely. The food, drinks are great. The Sunday music transports you to another place across the Atlantic. So sweet and highly recommend this place. The pork chop is a fave, as is the cottage pie and roasted chicken. You will have leftovers.“
“Great bar and decent restaurant. Food is delicious, the pork chop especially. I had a problem with my dinner and they were great dealing with it. It was really loud that night, not sure if it's that loud all the time but probably. Still, good eats and a fun atmosphere.“
“I would have to say, as an avid traveler and a person who loves Irish Pubs, this bar is my favorite Irish bar! If you are in the area of San Francisco I strongly recommend that you go to the Irish Times, you will not be disappointed! the food is amazing, the drinks are delicious and the atmosphere is out of this world!!“
“I love this place my local neighbor bar. Hayden is the best bartender looking out for me and my cousin the moment we stepped in. The best service and making sure we were safe. Hayden also makes the best Irish coffees and I would trust him with my life!“
“Well first off if you're going there for food, you're not gonna be satisfied they might have some chips but that's not why you come here. You come here simply for the atmosphere and the great prices on drinks and mind you this is cash only. They do have an ATM there and there are several ATM areas there in the area like a chase bank in a Wells Fargo. Please come in prepared don't order your drink and expect them Lady at the bar to hold your drink for you forever. They didn't have a live band or anything they did have a jukebox on the wall and the place got pretty crowded and it's in a well lit area very safe area. The day I saw what look like 28 year-old girls walking down the street by themselves without an adult that is a safe neighborhood. So many Uber drivers dropping people off and picking people up like I said the area is very charming. It's very small, but very nice. I would suggest having the espresso martinis.“
“Excellent food and very authentic. I lived in Ireland for a number of years and thoroughly enjoyed the full Irish fry for brunch. They even had Barry’s tea (I used to be more of a Lyon’s Gold Blend but Barry’s is my close second). Lovely.I went another evening and had the lamb riblets. GORGEOUS! I watched the barman pour a few Guinness. I normally don’t order Guinness in America but the barman poured a proper pint and there was plenty of Guinness flowing. Best pint of Guinness I’ve had in ages. I’ll be back!“
“Chieftain’s is the best Irish Pub in San Francisco and the best bar in Soma. We have so much fun every time we’re here and every employee is amazing. Richard, Lorrie, Danny, Dianne, Mark, and the rest of the staff are amazing. Highly recommend the Shepherds Pie!!“
“They had one of the best fish tacos I ever had. Yes, fish tacos… I know right. Very interesting seeing fish tacos at an Irish pub. They also had my favorite beer. Only bar I been to that had Michelob Ultra. I would definitely come back here next time I’m in San Francisco.“
“Awesome service, neighborhood friendly place to watch the game. Really nice bartender, Betty there made my NY Eve super lovely as well. I went in the first time, forgot my phone, came back and immediately greeted by Betty. She made an awesome cosmo drink perfect for pictures. Pink is my favorite color as I am aka babysoftpink for my online broadcast. Clean no stickiness on table. Easygoing , nice crowd there. I sat on the side to post for my pictures and felt totally comfortable, everyone was having lots of fun to prep for the new year so if you need some family vibe of happiness, this is the spot. I saw the pool table and there were pathway to the backyard for smokes, dog runaround and business etc. Not your typical Irish pub is also situated to a certain four-stars seafood restaurant if you are hungry before or after! My UberEats super store for dim sum is also nearby. Plenty of street parking outside. I saw two both times I stopped by this afternoon. I recommend giving them a try if you like mellow, parkside vibe, neighbors friendly pub. Betty knows how to entertain and uplifts the crowd too if you need some positivity!“
