1st of all didn't have food so didn't rate it. The pub itself was just another open area with a pool table and tv screens and tables and chairs. We sat at the bar and ordered drinks, being an Irish bar we ordered a Smithwicks and a Harp. The drinks were not up to scratch and they were 16oz pint glasses, in the UK it's 20oz pint glasses so less beer for your $. We were talking away and then in came the night staff as it was 7.30pm and the music was cranked up and it ruined whatever atmosphere there was. I paid for our drinks and left. If your going to call a bar an Irish bar, get it right. The girl that served us was friendly and chatty talking to all the customers I the bar. She saved your score.

During our golfing holiday in Lake Buena Vista we visited Paddywagon most nights as our bar of choice. We were staying at Grande Villas which was only about a 15-20 minute walk from our accommodations. Although a little cool inside (I always needed a cardigan!) their VERY wide choice of different beers kept drawing us back on many nights. The staff were knowledgeable, welcoming and friendly, and it was obvious that they have a group or regulars. They have lots of screens showing a variety of sports around the bar. There is a Pool table and Electronic darts too - no charge.
If we were visit again we would definitely go visit this bar.
The photo selection was what was available on our visit and we tried all their IPA’s 😊🍻
If you are a beer lover then this is the bar for you 😉

Paddys is definitely a place to be!! I went in after a long night on Friday night. I was greeted by an energetic, enthusiastic bartender! (Kalyn) So full of life and she very funny! Ordered my drink once and she knew what’s I was drinking the rest of the night! Check this place out! You definitely won’t be disappointed

DO NOT GIVE THIS ESTABLISHMENT YOUR BUSINESS. Terrible experience – Bartender needs to be fired. *** after scrolling through the reviews, I can see this isn’t the first time this bartender has discriminated a customer!!***

My coworker’s and I visited Paddywagon last night, and the experience was absolutely awful. We were there for all of 10 minutes before we were forced to leave due to the bartender’s shocking behavior.

It all started when I accidentally handed her my expired ID (my birthday was just last week, so I grabbed the wrong one). I immediately realized the mistake, apologized, and provided her with my valid, current ID. But instead of handling the situation professionally, she refused to accept my valid ID. Things took a disturbing turn when she became aggressive, rude, and began threatening us.

She accused me of being a “felon” simply for having two forms of ID, which is completely absurd. Then, in a disgusting display of unprofessionalism, she started using racial slurs and made threatening comments about calling the police to have me “deported.” For the record, I was born and raised in the U.S., with my entire family from New York. Her remarks were not only unfounded but blatantly racist and discriminatory.

The bar was practically empty – just 4 people inside on a Friday night – and it was clear this bartender was bored and looking for a power trip. Her behavior was disrespectful, demeaning, and she clearly had no regard for basic decency or customer service.

If this is the type of person Paddywagon hires, I strongly recommend everyone stay far away from this place. This bartender should be fired immediately. There’s absolutely no excuse for the way we were treated.

This place is great! Overall a relatively a small town feel. If you're local, it's worth coming in to get to know the staff. Kaylin (not sure of her spelling) is amazing and makes you feel like family after only one visit. You can tell the staff loves their job and enjoys getting to know their guests. Great place with a great selection!

Me and my wife go here for all the time and the bartenders dealing with the very full bar always are attentive and respectful . Ryan is awesome and knows your order even if you’ve only been there one Time . Would recommend to anyone in the area- not just service industry

Great place to drink very well and at great prices. An environment worthy of fun. I will miss it.

Don’t come here if you’re from out of town. Not a good spot to try, the bartenders are not attentive at all. It was a slow night and only one of them was nice. Tried it again tonight and the same bartender that was there the first night (tues) was on the right, they both ignore you. I think it’s only good if you’re a “regular”.
Try the other bars besides the billiards place if you hate smoking indoors.
