All I'll say is the lobster roll 'looks' small but WOW OH WOW seriously delicious, hardly any mayo . I had a chunk of a claw and ate every last morsel. the fries were also crispy n tasty

Great atmosphere, friendly bartenders and patrons. Solid Irish fare. Hot corned beef sandwich and fish and chips are winners. Best tartar sauce I've ever had!

Joe Wightman

A very good selection of Irish Whiskey . Recently added Green Spot. The Jameson Black Barrel is dollar for dollar one of the best Whiskey you will ever have. Please only drink neat.

Good burgers bad everything else

Tyler Insley

Don't eat here. Drinks are solid, but I think they probably make everything in the morning and have it in hot trays. Just doesn't taste fresh.

Mike Bruno

Good pub food -- grab a pint of Murphys when they have it.

Matt Raines

Nice place to grab a beer 🍺 but don't stay for dinner . Overpriced and very slow.

Great atmosphere, OK food, lousy service.

Don't eat here. There's my tip. Horrible food. It's been a let down the last few times we've been. How can you mess up fish and chips ?
