Large place. Interesting menu items.
Lots of music.
I came here for the hypnotist show(paid 30$ just for entry) and it turned out to be one of the worst evenings out / dining experiences I’ve ever had (even with friends to lighten the mood). We arrived early to get a table, but were sent to the far side of the restaurant — behind a wall where we couldn’t even see the show we paid for. We ended up finding our own table and borrowing chairs just to sit together. (Thankful for the wonderful patrons sitting next to us)
Even though it was a serviced section, I had to go to the bar multiple times just to get drinks, and our food didn’t arrive until half an hour into the show (even though we ordered 40 mins before the show start time). When it finally came, my burger bun was rock-hard, clearly sitting in the “window” too long. The “replacement” came out in under three minutes — clearly the same burger with a new bun. After that, we didn’t see our server again.
As for the show, it was just as disappointing — full of inappropriate, perverted jokes and insults toward the audience. Between the awful service, poor food quality, and offensive entertainment, I left feeling completely ripped off. Truly a shameful and disappointing experience. I would 100% not recommend this establishment. If I could give less than 1 star, I would.

Food was fantastic and prices were great for what we had. Loved the atmosphere and the service was pretty good too. Our server was very attentive and friendly. I'm just sorry I didn't get his name.
The only negative was that they seemed to have a private function begin shortly after we arrived. Unfortunately no one told us, or said anything about it. We just noticed a group of people setting up at the door after we had already sat down, and to our surprise it turned out to be an improv group. One of the improv people came over while we were eating and asked if we had bought our tickets. We told them we came in for dinner and didn't know what he was talking about. He said okay and he left but we got glances and comments for the rest of our meal. They had at one point stopped the show and asked us to be quiet.... We were hardly being loud. Just trying to talk while we ate.
It was really uncomfortable, especially since we were meeting up with an old friend for the first time in years.
So it ended up being a pretty disappointing experience but not because of the restaurant. It would have been nice if someone (anyone) warned us about the improv group before we had ordered - but, it is what it is. Food and prices were great :)

The perfect summer patio. Casual spot where we can go sit outside with our pup to have a good pub food meal.

Stopped in for a drink and a bite, and we were pleasantly surprised! The food was delicious and packed with flavour. Our waiter was friendly, attentive, and made the experience even better. Great service, great food, and a great stop!

Great live music Friday evenings!
The craft beers I tried on tap weren't the best. Get it in cans, as I know they're better than what I had. However the Philly Cheesesteak meets Dublin in a Yorkshire pudding wrap was phenomenal!!! The spicy fries as a side were also fantastic. Brilliantly done.

Excellent food! We had the bruschetta, tomato and basil soup and the homemade sausages and mashed potatoes. All the food was very good. Prices were good. It cost about $55.

First time at Dolans. Had an amazing time. Raglan Road was absolutely amazing. Vocals, energy and presence was outstanding. Staff very friendly and helpful. I now have a new favorite drink 🍹. Definitely would recommend for a fun relaxing stellar night. Dolans is it.

I was visiting Fredericton and when I asked locals where the weekend hot spot was, Dolans Pub is what they recommended. Total 🔥🔥🔥They had a live band that was very good. It was a bit quiet early in the night but by the end of the night it was packed. It was a cash bar but you could use a card if you were sitting at a table. People were super friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend.
Great live music! And the owner knows how to play the drums well!
Went out for a meal and drinks. AMAZING friendly staff, live music, drinks, meals!
