The food was delightful. The best stuffy I have had in many decades. The atmosphere was charming and eclectic. Our service person was polite, attentive and able to make a gluten free adjustment.

Great local Irish pub. Service is great. Stopped in for a drink and appetizers.. 2nd time back as it's a bit out of the way for me but worth the trip. The live band was good the first time I was there. Ordered the pub pretzels and wings again. The bangers and mash were great. Decent consistent pub fare!

Lots of bad reviews for a great place, IMO. Staff is always attentive, beer is always cold and food is very Irish, delish. We like to support local and this place is right around the corner.

Best Pub in the area, Irish or otherwise. Staff is exceptional! They are always friendly, funny, attentive, and hard-working. You won't find a better pour of Guinness. Highly recommend the steamers and onion rings. Ask for French fries with curry sauce for an authentic Irish late night snack. Their family recipe soda bread is also fantastic. It is loud and busy at night, often featuring live bands. If you are looking for a more relaxed experience try lunch or a Florida supper. Sláinte!

Such friendly service. Walked in on a Saturday night with 6 people without a reservation and was able to get a table within 15 minutes. In the meantime we hung out by the bar admiring the really cool decor. We ended up with a great table and got incredible food. We started with delicious steamers and soda bread. Our entrees were so great too. We all got beef stew or shepherds pie (also gluten free). Can't wait to come back!

Went in with my niece after marathon Monday. We had two ladies helping us. One lady had an Irish accent and I want to make sure she gets recognized for her kindness and hard work. The food was amazing and steamers were just as I remember from years ago, amazing!

I hovered between 3-5. The bucket of steamers, the service, soda bread and Guinness, with Irish music in the background a def 5, the clam chowder while full of clams was a little grainy almost broken, not rich and creamy, the clam cakes also plentiful with clams a bit overworked and over cooked. The pretzels were delicious, crispy, chewy and not overly salty. Our waitress Kendra(who I think was really Kelly) was a really good waitress, attentive without being intrusive, and gave tips on what to do with take home steamers. Always good food and entertainment here!
