Me and the ole lady went their on sat night and had an amazing time. I’ve been to a lot of Irish pubs and most them should remove the name Irish pub and just be called sports bar. Patsy not only has amazing soda bread but play Irish music which I love and listen to daily myself. From the dubliners , the Pogues to few others. I love it. The pints were amazing and that Jameson bread pudding shocked us both how good that was. Gonna need a bucket of that next time and 5 gallon jug of Guinness to go. Def be back the lady who serverd us was super nice and freindly. Def a must if you love the Irish theme or heritage. 10/10 all day can’t wait to come back maybe after training sat swing by.

We had a wonderful evening on Patsy's patio. Our server, Devon, was lovely, knowledgeable and entertaining. Beer flight was nice, Scotch egg crispy, and Rainbow Trout tender. The Chili Mac was like Steak and Shake but for grown-ups! This is a compliment. Cincinnati style chili was flavorful and smooth. We will be back to see Devon :) and try the Irish whiskey flight next time.

Stopped by Patsy Hartigan’s for lunch with my mom, my sister, and her baby. Unfortunately, the service really missed the mark.

They were running a lunch special on the smash burger for $10 until 2:00. We arrived before 2, but by the time our server took our order, it was 2:02 — and she wouldn’t honor the special. So my mom ended up paying $5 more for the exact same thing.

To make matters worse, my sister was upcharged for swapping fries for green beans, even though the green beans cost less. When we asked about it, the waitress said they “don’t notify customers of upcharges.” When my sister politely asked to have the charge removed, the waitress just said no. It came across as dismissive and unnecessarily rude.

The food itself was fine, but the service from this particular waitress was rude and left us feeling unwelcome. With open and honest communication and a friendlier attitude, this place has the potential to be a pleasant lunch spot — but this experience was unpleasant from start to finish.

Waiter ignored us for 20 minutes and we walked out. He set tables, socialized with the hostess, waited on larger parties. Very disappointed as the menu looked great.

This is a bar, not a restaurant. Seems real nice, but I'm with my 11 year old son. This should be categorized as a bar.

MUST BE 21+ TO ENTER
I wanted to include that up front because I did not see it mentioned anywhere when I scrolled through the reviews. That said, myself and my 3 kids stopped in for lunch on a Thursday. The hostess and waitress were both very kind and offered us a booth. We did not see the signage about being over 21 until we were leaving, and no one said anything at all to us about it. I would not have chosen this place had I known. Restaurant owners, if you're reading this, thank you for your kindness and hospitality and I promise to not come back with the kids in the future 😅
The food....it was delicious. I ordered the Irish quesadilla and I will be back to order it again! It was so good! I also ordered Champ. I really don't know what I was expecting, but it is exactly as the description says. It was tasty and very filling. My kids ordered wings, fish and chips, and a chopped pub salad. It's important to note that there is no kids menu, which should have been a sign that they were not supposed to be there 🫠 All the kids ate their food and said it was good.
The atmosphere and decor were exactly as you'd expect in an Irish pub. The place was clean, the booth was comfortable. I might try the patio seating next time.

Great Irish Pub. Food and service were fantastic, home crafted beer on tap. Love the atmosphere, would definitely recommend trying if you have not been there.

This is the go to place for authentic Irish fare, fantastic local brews, and most importantly, watching Arsenal matches!

Their house made ranch is the best around.

They now serve the full breakfast early during the weekends. The biscuits and gravy were really good. The Irish Mash was the best I've ever had.

COYG!

Would love to love this place. Been here 5 times. Food quality gets worse every time. Fish and chips—well the fish now looks like frozen fish sticks. Not acceptable for these prices. Beers are $8+. Again, would love to love this place. Was excited for an Irish pub again after RiRa closed. But this place isn’t it.

The food wasnt bad but the service was non existant. 2 out of the 4 drinks we order on the first round were wrong .The wine my brother order at the start of the meal when we were ordering our food didn't arrive till after we had already eaten. There was a major in the kitchen so there was somehow battered cod available for the battered cod sandwich but none availbe for the fish and chips I ordered.
