Great Irish restaurant in the south metro. Nice place for happy hour. They carry all the typical Irish beers like Guinness and Harp at a reasonable price. We had appetizers and all were done very well. The lobster poutine was amazing. Creamy, tasty and fresh. The boneless wings and cheese curds were good and prepared as expected. Service was very good and attentive to our after work party of 6. Loved the St Patty's decorations. Can't wait to return and try more.

Service was extremely lacking. Could barely get staffs attention. Food was served cold and corned beef was almost beef jerky. Ordered a couple drinks that seemed to have no alcohol despite them over charging for it. For the prices they charge, food and service should be better.

We went with friends that needed to get their Irish on. It was... a lot.Food was fine. Fish and chips and Reuben. Both are better elsewhere, but they were hot and relatively quick with how busy it was.

The food here is exceptional! The lobster poutine is out of this world. They also have a lot of unique offerings you don't find at standard American restaurants like pub pies, corned beef and cabbage, and bangers and mash. They have a pretty decent tap selection (I got a peach sour, which was unbelievably delicious), and the atmosphere is really great. They had it decked out for St. Patty's day when I went, so it was extra fun.The only reason I give them a 4 instead of 5 stars is that they were out of at least 5 of the things we asked for, and the server seemed generally irritable. They were doing bingo at 2p on Sunday, so the server was just very busy and the attitude was situational, but I'm sure he would have been pleasant otherwise.

Pot roast it's absolutely on point. I'm a picky customer. Some menu items are not for me, but I've never been anywhere that had a top to bottom menu I loved. That says more about me than any restaurant. Staff is fun and engaging with good Irish pub ambiance. Live singer / songwriters several days a week. Good beer selection. Definitely recommended.

It’s a great local favorite! We decided to have a quick lunch date with my wife and it was great. Service was incredibly fast and the food was great. I highly recommend the shrimp as the aioli was insanely good. We will definitely be back.Beau GeerOwner - Xtreme Pest Solutions

We’ve been here many times over the last 3 years and always had good experiences but after our visit today we likely won’t be back. It easily took 30 min to get our drinks (and probably about that to even order them). The server kept stopping over and saying “after I do this, I’ll come by for your order”. Slowest and least attentive service we’ve had.I did swing by the bar to ask the bartender about our drinks and told her about the delay. She offered to make the drinks but by that time we’d waited at least 30 min. Our drink order came incomplete when it did come and then was wrong. Food took a while and wasn’t anything remarkable. Not worth the hassle and slow service.
