Cozy ambiance, yet a bit boisterous by the bar. (There are quieter spots, 'tho.) Prompt, attentive service & delicious food. We loved it!

Disappointing Experience at Catherine Rooney’s – A Call for Improvement
I recently visited Catherine Rooney’s during a Liverpool Champions League match, and I must express my profound disappointment with the service we received. The bartenders were not just unhelpful; they were outright rude and seemed to lack any appreciation for the patrons who were there to enjoy the game and support the establishment.
One incident that particularly stood out involved a friend ordering a Guinness draft. When he asked for a second one, the male bartender reacted with visible irritation, as if fulfilling our requests was an imposition rather than part of his job. The female bartender, who was working that Wednesday afternoon, was equally unfriendly—her demeanor was icy and unwelcoming. Not a single smile or word of gratitude for our business was offered; instead, we were met with a level of disdain that made us feel like a burden rather than valued customers.
As a long-time bartender and business owner myself, I understand the pressures of the industry, but this experience was one of the worst I've encountered. Service should enhance the enjoyment of the experience, not detract from it. It’s disheartening to see such a lack of basic hospitality in a place that relies on patrons for its success.
I hope this feedback serves as a wake-up call for management to address these issues. A positive attitude and genuine appreciation for customers can transform a good bar into a great one.

Great, friendly atmosphere with good variety of beers and ales; satisfying food menu. Connected to Trolley Tap house, which is great for beers and pool, entertainment.

Came here for lunch with friends and had a lovely experience. Shoutout to our server Sarah for making our time fun and memorable.
Food was good, drinks were great (highly recommend the Patio Punch) and service was 15 out of 10. Staff is friendly and attentive.

My favorite place in Wilmington! Wonderful atmosphere, fun and friendly staff and customers, good food, great drinks. It's a fun place to venture out on your own or bring your family, and the perfect place to watch Liverpool matches. Up the Reds!

Just had the fish and chips delivered! It was delicious and I'll definitely be ordering from Catherine's again!
Drinks are decent and a competitive price. I went here and got this Caribbean drink and tried their boneless wings. It was rather empty when I went but the room reminded me of a vintage western saloon.

Four of us for dinner and nobody was especially impressed with the food. My salmon was small, dry, and flavorless. Brussels sprouts were very hard. Although it was early in the evening, the noise level was high and very hard to talk with each other. Very attentive waite staff.

Reuben was just a bunch of meat on toast (both of which were good) with basically no toppings, had to ask for a side of kraut for the second half. Been looking for a good repeat Reuben spot, this is not it. My partners fish n chips was good, waitress nice and atmosphere good.

Different Cheesesteak #1152. Tuesday drinks and cheesesteaks with Amigo Dan. I’m glad I watched my video. I forgot how much we liked this (bar) cheesesteak. It was a Tuesday afternoon and they had a good crowd. The cheesesteak came with kettle chips and a pickle. They serve their cheesesteak on a toasted roll with fried onions and peppers. I got provolone cheese to complement the peppers. That was a good choice.
