The burgers were good, the beer was cheap, we liked it. They don't really have any Irish dishes so if you're looking for that vibe you gotta go to downtown Rochester but if you want goood bar food with fair prices this place is it!

My brother took me there for Thanksgiving and I was really impressed. I was halfway into my meal before I realized I hadn't salted anything -- everything was perfectly prepared and delightfully delicious! (I only marked the atmosphere a 3 because, while they're common nowadays, I'm still not a big fan of large screen TVs around the room.)

We have been regulars since the remodel. We have had many items on the menu, and never a bad meal. Everything is really good. The wait staff is very friendly and accommodating. It's always a pleasant dining experience.

Located on the East side of Mound just before it turns into Auburn Road this recently renovated pub is a hot spot to meet up, have fun and enjoy delicious food and great drinks.

Mom is 86 now so we eat out earlier and earlier, lol. We braved the disgusting traffic on Van Dyke and made our way here on a Monday early eve. at 5:00pm. She had never been here before but I meet my friends here for drinks every now and then. Last time I was here my friend treated me to onion soup and potato skins; it was so delicious I just had to take mom here for a drink and meal. There is plenty of parking on the sides and in the back.

The place is spotless! There is a plenty to do with pool tables, lottery tickets, pull-tabs, large screen tv's, claw machines and more. I even noticed that some of the tables had decks of cards along with pen and paper.

You can sit at the bar on a stool, at a table top or at a booth. Mom requires booth sitting so that 's were we parked ourselves. Mom opted for the beef nachos with an upcharge for a side of guacamole and a coke. I tried the Sheppard's pie and had a glass of sauvignon blanc. I could have had house wine, a wide selection of beer and mixed drinks but I opted for my go to drink.

Mom's beef nacho's were plentiful and delicious. My Sheppard's pie was OK. The ground meat in the pie was very tasty but I expected mashed potato's on top not big chunks of cut potato's. I think the cheese on top was a bit overpowering but overall it was served nice and hot and I enjoyed eating it.

The service as always is excellent!

Very cool place with great service, good drinks, and the food is okay too. I liked the shepherd's pie but I subbed cheddar on top instead of Swiss. They need to work on their pizza some, and maybe add an entree or two. I get it that it's more of a bar but too nice of a place not to have a few more options. Overall I do like eating here while enjoying a couple of cocktails.

I was brought wrong drink. Waitress argued with me that it was correct, even brought back to table and pushed towards me. After smelling drink admitted was wrong but would not apologize until prompted. Very rude. I’ve been to this place for almost 20 years and do not want to go back based on treatment from waitress and manager.

Watch your pull tab winnings or ask for redemption slips or something. Get a witness because it seems like there's a hustle going on. Guess ya gotta have a grift when you're a cut-rate bartender.
