It's alright, a little awkward being the only two people in there around 1pm on a weekday. The pricing is pretty high, even for being in a pretty prime area, Mother Muffs is more inexpensive and better in my opinion as well as more selection.

Food/drink is very overpriced for what you are getting. Both $7 alcoholic beverages were only halfway full and an order of 2 pretzel sticks was $15. The prices were left off the holiday menu given to us. Great atmosphere for grabbing a drink with friends but I would suggest filling up before heading here.

Alchemy is absolutely amazing! The corn beef and cabbage was super delicious and the sauce that went with it was divine! The atmosphere is so pleasant and a perfect pub experience! The bread pudding was also fantastic!

Small pub. There’s limited inside sitting, but there is a patio outback that has additional seating.Gives local vibes.For the fish and chips (the fish is tilapia not cod).When busy there can be a little wait but not too bad.Good spot to stop in for a Guinness.It’s paid street parking unless you can find the few free parking spots. There is a limited public parking lot on the alley road on the backside.

We met the owner when we went and he is super nice and understanding. Overall, it was a great experience and the food was delicious. The caramel apple mule is so good and they serve warm butter beer which is also quite good, especially if you have a sweet tooth. I enjoyed everything served on the chefs board, which is a rarity considering I'm quite picky. Even the bleu cheese was good (which I normally hate).

Queer friendly and absolutely DELICIOUS food at reasonable prices. The staff completely avoided gendering me, which is really nice as a non-binary person.

Food was so good! We got the green chili lamb. The chilli wasn't very spicy but the flavor was amazing. We also got just a plain burger. We arrived a little less than an hour before the kitchen closed so we didn't want to get touch to eat. We got some drinks that were a little pricy but so worth it. Our waiter was also our bartender/cook and was taking care of everyone. It was just him but he checked in on us enough that we didn't mind the wait in the slightest. Definitely recommend!

Friendly staff, some interesting food options like Scotched Eggs, and overall great for a dive bar. It needs some polish to earn more stars for service and atmosphere for me. You have to go through the kitchen to get to the back and that is a bit awkward. Also, when I was there it was mid-week so the outside bar wasn't open. Nothing wrong with that it just all seemed a little sad and the service was inconsistent. Not bad, I don't expect the same level as a regular restaurant, just green and a bit unreliable.They need a deep clean, re-paint, fix broken tables week to spruce it up and a little training and they will be great. When I was there too there were only two, maybe three other tables outside yet we had two waiters serving the back. It doesn't make sense from a staffing perspective. We would see the other waiter consistently and ours once every 25 min. They may have had other responsibilities inside which is why it seemed green or inconsistent. I will definitely go back!

The lamb green Chile is served to you in a small bowl... it's not enough food and mine was also cold... certainly not worth $18. I see other reviews mentioned the same.The fish and chips is tilapia. Considering this is supposed to be an "Irish pub" it was certainly not what I was expecting. I was disappointed in our meal.When you order a name brand soda they bring you something completely different in a bottle without telling you they don't serve coke /Pepsi products.We were the only people in there over lunch hour.I found the whole experience to be disappointing and I wish we had went somewhere else.
