I don't go out to places like this often but it was great here. The prices are what you'd expect, the food was excellent, and the drinks can't be beat. We ended up being there on karaoke night (did not know it was that night) and it was a lot of fun.

My favorite bar to go to for games or even just to chill. Both the staff and owner are peaches and beyond sweet. The food is crazy good with huge portions and unbeatable prices. Highly recommend! Our favorites were the nacho tray which was under 20 bucks and their espresso martini tower.

Food Review: Paddy Kelly’s – Peabody, MA
If you’re looking for classic bar food done right, Paddy Kelly’s at 154 Washington St, Peabody, MA, is a must-visit. From giant margarita towers to loaded nachos and hearty burgers, this spot delivers on both flavor and value. Whether you're out with friends or family, it’s the kind of place where you can kick back, indulge, and enjoy some solid comfort food in a no-frills setting.
The Must-Have Dishes 🔥 Kitchen Sink Nacho Tray ($17.95) – An absolute steal! This massive tray of nachos is loaded with grilled chicken, chili, tomatoes, onions, black olives, and jalapeños, served with salsa and sour cream. Easily feeds four people and is hands-down worth coming back for. 9/10 🔥 Buffalo Chicken Sandwich ($14.95) – Crispy buffalo chicken with just the right amount of heat, paired with cool bleu cheese. If you're hunting for a great Buffalo chicken sandwich near Medford or Boston (seriously, where are the good ones?), this is a solid contender. 9/10 🔥 Smokehouse Burger ($14.95) – Stacked with BBQ sauce, bacon, an onion ring, and pepper jack cheese, it was a good burger, but honestly, the onion rings stole the show. Cooked perfectly crisp— which so many places mess up! 7/10
Hit or Miss 💭 Steak & Cheese Egg Rolls ($14.95) – Filled with shaved steak and served with buffalo ranch for dipping, these had great flavor but were just way too greasy. 6/10 💭 Pizza – Undercooked, but decent for the price. If you're looking for a great pizza, this isn't the spot. 5/10
Drinks: The Real Star 🍹 Margarita Tower – Absolutely massive and perfect for sharing. You can't go wrong with this one! ☕ Giant Espresso Martinis – If you’re a fan of espresso martinis, they go big here—definitely worth trying.
Final Verdict If you want a true Boston dive bar experience, this is it. No frills, just solid food and strong drinks at a great price. Come for the drinks and nachos!
- Food: 7/10 on the bar food scale. - Affordability: 8/10 - 0 (It's a dive bar—if you want a true Boston experience, come here!) - Overall: 7/10
Not a local, but in town for a few months. Have been here 4 times in past 3 weeks, lunch and evenings. Girls, that work the bar and dining tables are All excellent. Hard working, attentive, fun, and personable. Tough combination to find these days. Top that off with excellent food value, and quality! Great job!
Great place. 20-50s crowd. Had a great time!
