Ate here a few years ago and had a great time: food, music, friendly atmosphere. Since then, I’ve looked forward to coming back someday. Finally made the trip this past Friday and met friends for dinner. Traffic was terrible (of course) and parking was a bit inconvenient , but no problem, the experience would be well worth it I thought. Walked in and the atmosphere was quiet and pretty empty for a Friday evening. No music. Maybe things were subdued a couple days before St Patrick’s Day, i dunno. The food was fine. The waiter had pretty much no personality. We tried smiling, striking a bit of conversation with him, but he was not in a good mood I guess. He kinda brought us down, which is a surprising feat when I think of other Irish restaurants I’ve visited. Sorry to say I was disappointed this time.

It's a fine bar. Our waiter came by 3 times in 2 hours and never brought us water. When I came time to pay, he handed me the machine and I tried to pay with card. The machine didn't register anything so I asked if it went through. He came back and accused me of hitting the cash button and not paying. For the next 5 minutes I told him I was trying to pay with a card and all he coups say was that I hit the cash button and he has not received cash. Such an awkward end to my birthday. I did eventually convince him to run it again but as card and left him a 22% tip. Probably won't ever return.

3.2.24 Service Hubby and I started at the bar while we waited for friends. Hubby and I struck up a conversation with the owner who was friendly and personable. Owner worked the bar and served drinks, but also came around and took order for drinks when we transitioned to our table. We later had a server who was great too and came by frequently to clear our table and asked if we needed anything. Ambiance Fun and cute Irish decor throughout the pub. Loved the vibe. Bar, dining, and patio seating. Live music at 8pm on Saturdays. Drinks Extensive menu of wine, whiskey, and beer. Happy hour on all pints (16 oz), Glass Wines and Rail Spirits, Monday-Friday from 4-7pm and all day on Sundays (only at the bar). $2 off on bottles and cans in Saturdays. Food Menu Weekly Specials include: Monday: half priced burgers (night and dine-in only) Tuesday: unlimited veggie curry Wednesday: prime rib Saturday/Sunday Brunch (11am-3pm) Food Rating -Fish and Chips: average -Reuben sandwich: delish -mozzarella sticks: good -calamari: average -banofee pie: average (Friend wanted to come here as she was on a mission to try this, but sadly it disappointed.) Final Impression Love the service and ambiance. I don't drink so can't comment on it. Food was decent, but didn't have anything that was noteworthy. A great pub for St. Paddy's Day approaching.

It’s cozy and I’ve never had a bad meal here; food comes fast, there’s a great combination of pub classics and Irish traditional faire, and the tap list can’t be beat!

Atmosphere was relaxing like home. I ordered the steak and cheese and they told me the owner was from Philly so it was going to be good. It tasted old and there was barely any meat. The calamari is good.

This is definitely a neighborhood staple Irish pub! It was a relaxed early Saturday evening back in October, and I just grabbed a beer and took in the atmosphere. Bartenders were laid back, the staff were laid back, the decor was amusing... there were signs with puns and just random things hanging up. I got an international beer that I wasn't familiar with and I was pleased! I just sipped water and hung out otherwise. I occasionally saw some food go by that looked really good, like the fish and chips! The next time I come I think I'll try some food.

Best fish and chips. Great burgers.

Overall, I think this is a great local spot for booze and bites. In my case, I stopped by primarily for booze rather than bites. ;) It seems like most of the folks that come here know each other. Even though I am new to the area, all of the folks with whom I interacted were very inviting and open to conversation. The pub has daily drink and food specials depending on the night of the week. I thought the prices for the most part were pretty reasonable. Service can be a bit interesting. One of the bartenders is quite good at his job, but his personality might be a bit off putting to some.
