The facility has a cool history and unique architecture. I dropped in for lunch and a beverage. The shepherds pie was amazing and the service was excellent. Take some time to look around and read every in the walls. Great place to grab a quick meal and drinks.

We were staying downtown for a concert at First Avenue. We went to have dinner and a couple drinks. Bartender was amazing and atmosphere the best. Baileys Irish cream pie brought us back the next night for a drink and conversation. Highly recommend this place to anyone traveling to Minneapolis.

A great place to stop before seeing a show at First Ave as it's right across the street. Tons of on tap beers provides a great selection and the food is delicious. Our server was very attentive and the beers were poured perfectly, full points with a small amount of head. The corned beef poutine is amazing! I'll definitely be coming back.

Not open advertised hours, no signage on the doors indicating it was closed, this was a Monday evening at 6:30pm. At least put to a sign with your hours.

I don't usually leave bad reviews but my experience here was extremely disappointing. We came here one night and the server was dismissive and made us feel like a burden just for ordering. Came back the next evening to give it a second shot and the service was even worse. Super unkind, rude staff. The bar itself is cool with the large outdoor patio area. Hospitality is a big part of any bar experience and this place completely failed on that front.

A true Irish pub owned by an actual Irishman. Stiff drinks reasonably priced for downtown. Great atmosphere.

Real deal Irish Pub. Just stopped in yesterday afternoon and had a pint while waiting for our hotel room at the Lofton to be ready. Bartender was extremely personable and very knowledgeable about football which was fun. Very nice place with great atmosphere.

Was recently there this past weekend for a show across the way and had the burger and fries. Nice to have a fat burger for a change, smash burgers are fine but something about a thick juicy meat patty hits the spot sometimes. Was cooked to temp, fries were hot. Props to grill master 🫡 I will add I was also there a few years back with friends and everything was solid then too.
