I'm flummoxed by the many positive reviews for this place. I've probably been in here 4 or 5 times since the place opened when Paddy B's closed. It opened with a lot of promise. It looked so nice. It is not. Of the 4 to 5 visits, I've had 4 to 5 bizarre experiences. Bizarre is probably the best word to describe it here. The bartender walking around in socks one night, a waitress accusing my sister of knocking over an outdoor umbrella rather than assuming (as a normal person might) that it was the wind, locking the door to the outside area when there were still customers out there without telling us they were closing, then TWO employees standing outside the bathroom door waiting for me when I had the nerve to ask to use the bathroom before leaving, music BLARING when the place had about 5 patrons rattling around inside...I could go on. I've never left there thinking, what a fun time. I've only left thinking, I plan to never return again.
Update: definitely a big drug scene here

Celebrated a 60th birthday event. I Called Kayla the manager/hostess, she got the area reserved, she was so kind, attentive, friendly.
Such a positive upbeat personality she has.
Food is always awesome and drinks are plentiful, perfect and reasonably priced.
Unique inexpensive menu. The portions are easily enough for 2 meals..
Love our neighborhood bar, great hangout, always having food and drink specials and fun activities few times a week!!
Keep up the great atmosphere Kayla and your coworkers.
Thank you!! 5 stars ⭐ ⭐⭐⭐⭐🌹🍺

This place is definitely not known for its food and should have read the reviews first. I started off by ordering a Smithwicks. I then ordered the garlic parmesan fries appetizer along with a bacon jalapeño cheese burger. The Smithwicks arrived in a Guinness glass and it was a little flat. It was then that I realized I had screwed up. Lol. The garlic parmesan fries arrived and I don't know what kind of garlic they used (maybe the squeeze tube type) and the parmesan cheese was probably straight out of a kraft cheese bottle. The burger arrived and it was as expected. It's a frozen patty that was fairly dry and the jalapeños were there but had zero heat.
Overall, looks like a great place to have a pint but stay away from the food. Patrons are allowed to vape inside. Patron with the blue shirt is a vapor. I sat with a direct view of him and watched him vape the entire time. With my experience from the Smithwicks and as a Guinness enthusiast, I can almost confidently say that the Guinness there will be disappointing (but I didn't try it and can't speak for it).
Parking: Parking along the outside of the establishment.
