5 Best Irish Pubs near Raytown

“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.“

“LOVE THIS PLACE! KARAOKE on Thursdays from 8-1 with Katherine Allison is awesome! Supportive people, great sound and drinks are made with love by the bartenders! The place isn't made by the walls, but by the people that work there! This place is awesome! Oh, and the FOOD!!!“

“Came in here for the first time on a Wednesday night for all day happy hour. Someone mentioned this spot on Reddit so I thought it would be good spot to rendezvous with some friends.

The poutine was absolutely DELICIOUS. Our bartender Caleb did a great job of pointing us to the bar's favorite food and drink items. I went with a margarita to drink and it hit the spot. Karaoke was happening which was a great vibe to be around.

I will definitely be back sometime soon with more friends!“

“So glad to see this venue open again. Love the style and the vibe. Awesome service from bartender Adria tonight. Will definitely be back.“

“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!“
