What can I say about this place - Top notch service and great selection of irish beers on Tap. It definately has all of Irish bar vibes identically like the ones you find in Dublin. One thing I would love for this fine stablishment is to open early to catch an early Premier League Game or a Rugby 7's game. I highly recommend this place to those looking for an Irish Experience in the U.S

Not open until 3! They start kicking people out at 2:20. Bartenders are rude and its super small in there with nothing to do really. When I asked why their business hours say open until 3am, they told me not to believe everything on the internet, as if they aren't the ones who set the hours online.

This was a horrible experience. I have never had an experience like this my whole like. As soon as my friends and I walked into the bar we could hear everyone talking about us and giving us looks. They all kept saying we were underage because we looked so young. After they had someone check our IDs we continued to get dirty looks. There was 4 drinks ordered and 2 shots. My friends were still drinking when the old bar tender yelled at us to get out because “no one bought anything” as soon as we walked out we could hear people cheering. This was like a scene from a movie. I have never experienced this. Worst place ever and ageist af. By the way I am 27 and my husband is 34.

Thad is the best owner because he doesn't care if you're white, black, asian any other race. He has very fast service. He always smiles at everyone and is very friendly. I love coming here for a fun time. Would definitely recommend coming here.

Negatives:the owner, the older women is racist towards people that aren’t white.They seem to not like younger crowds.It’s an old little bar so, i odnt mind the atmosphere. The prices are fine. I just think the owner of it is super rude when she is in.

Got kicked out of the place for no reason at all. 3 of us went in, got a drink each and after a few minutes this girl walks up to us talking smack, I'm sure she got us confused, but then her friends and others started racially abusing us. Blonde bartender kicked us out, police came in and they were still chanting racial slurs at us in front of the officers.

Fight club starts around 1 am on weekends. Women ‘nope’ out fast after a few minutes inside. Never been here without seeing blond bartender shouting. Wood floors are pitch black from grime.

OMG! Sharon is the BEST!! The vibe is awesome! Try Wednesday nights if you can. Open mic night is a mix of good fun and good music. It’s a little daunting when you ask for liquor they are out of and the bartender will disappear into the women’s bathroom and magically appear with your liquid morsel, but fear not, the storage is tucked behind a door that happens to be in the bathroom. Ha! Love this place! Give it a whirl for a local delight for drinks and good people.

Volatile bartender Sharon. Patrons over served frequently. Security limited. Locals preferred.
