We were drunk and it was late. We needed hardy food and to keep our buzz going. The Ear Inn was perfect. We sat at the bar. Inside of about 90 secs we had two cold beers and a menu. We started out with the fried pork dumplings. We were very happy with them. Ask for the mustard. The picture is the plate the dumps came on. For entrees we had the Shepard pie and the spicy shrimp. Shepards pie with lamb was very good. Not too buttery. The potatoes were well toasted. Spicy shrimp was excellent. Nice garlic and butter flavor with moderate spice. It came with some bread. You might ask for extra bread. The sauce and bread was amazing. We did not see any ghosts. Mikey The Sailor must have been haunting another spot that night.

Was starving late night and google led me to The Ear Inn. Great late night Irish Pub, service was awesome, both the host and bartender made me feel welcome. The host secured a good seat at the bar for me, despite it being really busy that night. I tried the house burger, which was excellent. It came with a surprise addition of home fries which was unexpected yet tasty. I didn't expect that pairing. The ambiance was lively, despite being pretty late and the bar definitely has the old Irish Pub look and feel. Definitely a solid choice.

What a cozy little spot. Had a jolly few hours here today. Tasty little negroni and my friend had a spiced margarita. Both blended well and refills soon followed.The steamed dumplings were fresh, hot and mega tasty.Lovely friendly staff and patrons alike - such a great vibe!

Beer is good...service is great and the burger & Bangers n mash were both Sub Par (yuk). My friend was happy with the scampi linguini and it looked good. Maybe the chef only does upscale dishes and frowns on the staples. Med Rare burger was small and dry. Bangers looked like frozen JimmyDean with no flavor and a small dish of fresh mashed potatoes with frozen banger gravy? Sorry....

New York classic. The dumplings are weirdly good. Burger was good. BLT wrap special was a little light on B & T.
