Very large portions and absolutely delicious! Great beer and liquor selection as well!

Service was great considering we hit them right when the opened with almost 2 dozen hungry bikers and only the bartender to handle all of us.

Great job and sorry for crushing you like that!

🔥🍻 James Joyce is the spot!

Every time I slide through James Joyce, it’s nothing but good vibes. Drinks are strong, prices are right, and the music + crowd keep the energy flowing. This is the kind of bar where you don’t just grab a drink, you end up staying way longer than planned because the vibe hooks you.

Big shoutout to Chris 🙌 — dude’s got that perfect mix of cool and attentive. Always makes sure your glass is full,...

Fantastic establishment with a nice homey feel. I have aways been greeted with friendly staff that devote themselves to their customers. From karaoke, trivia, or any other activity they have planned it, they never fail to make any night a great time. If you are visiting the area and are looking for a local gem, any day of the week James Joyce is your place. Don't forget ask about the Irish Drinking Team.
