Great food and service! Will def return! Try the burger or the wings, won't let you down.

Solid fish and beet salad dinner. Really appreciate their proper style of fish batter - light and crisp. Popped in for an early Saturday night dinner, and I'm glad we got there early as it filled up fast. Strong drinks, great pub food options, and a bustling atmosphere.

I Was having a Guinness at the bar with my girlfriend (who doesn’t drink). Halfway through my drink the bartender told us “hey guys your gonna need to get up, we have patrons who are going to eat who need the stools”. Very bizarre. I’ve never been treated like that at a restaurant. I understand a bartender trying to maximize what he sells but this is no way to treat your patrons.

Did not rate food as was there for drinks only. Good place to get a nice cold Guinness although many would say a Guinness in a glass is the breakfast of champions. Nice local Irish pub.

From out of town and visiting son in the area. Hangry at 2:30 on a Friday afternoon and stumbled in. Great atmosphere, friendly bartenders and patrons. Good selection of draft beers and one of the best Reuben and fries I’ve had in a long time.

Lovely old school Irish pub in the heart of Brookline. We came for an early dinner and had the place nearly to ourselves, although it was packed by the time we left. Simple but very tasty menu; we had the fish and chips and the salmon. Both were very good. They had some fun drinks on special, and my wife had the French 75, which was tasty but not cold enough. Tiny wine menu, but the syrah I had was decent. Atmosphere was fun, and the service was prompt and polite. Recommended.
