“We hosted a Rehearsal Dinner and Welcome Party for our son’s wedding at O’Dowds and it was a huge success! We worked with Darci Kelley in Events Planning from the beginning and she was patient, responsive, kind and incredibly helpful as she answered my many questions. She provided suggestions based on what I thought I wanted and then very patiently helped me navigate through all of my thoughts to get to a perfect spot in the menu and with the bar.

She stayed in close contact with the GM, Rob, and ensured everything was exactly to specifications when we showed up for the start of the event. Nick, Scott, Josh, Charlie and Nicole helped to make the Rooftop Bar experience fun and ensure all of our guests were taken care of. The rooftop is a fun place to host an event, and O'Dowds will set it up with what fits your needs.

They are very attentive and willing to meet you where you are (even when you are hosting 120 close family and friends from out of town!). O'Dowds helped to kick off our son’s wedding weekend with a flourish and I really appreciate Darci, Rob and the team for making this happen!“

“Great food and fantastic drinks“

“Small crowd for a Saturday night, but it made for the perfect neighborhood pub experience. The bartender was waiting on the few tables with patrons away from the bar. She was very pleasant and attentive. They did have a perfect Guinness pour, as advertised. This is a smoking bar. Small menu of typical bar food, which I think is perfectly appropriate for the atmosphere.“
