Irish Restaurants near Maspeth, NY

“My fiance and I found this place one night after working late. We try to come once a week for an hour or two to unwind. It's one of our favorite bars in Queens. Drinks and prices are good, atmosphere is laid back and chill. Outside seating area for smoking and drinking.
Thank you Joey the bartender for making us laugh and for the crazy conversations about anything and everything. Cheers?“

“Not sure where some of the other reviews about the bartenders come from. We were here from Vermont, and this was far and away the best place we visited in the city. Drinks were good, bartender made a point to get peoples names and talk to them like friends. John was awesome. The shepherds pie was also on point!“

“I first discovered Finnegans Wake in 1990 and it was and still is my favorite NY place. Those were the days, my friend. We thought they’d never end but I haven’t been back to NYC since 2013. I heard Ignatius passed and May he RIP and Frank, the best bartender must have retired. If not, please give him a shout out from his “California Girls , Maria and Kelly.“

“Very good place!!!!!! Good food, amazing people!!!!! And is not espencer!!“

“Sean our waiter was phenomenal. Funny, helpful, kind and on top of everything. We went for my S/O bday and they treated him with a warm choc brownie with caramel and ice cream. He had the Fish and Chips and loved it, which is saying a lot bc we just had it in England. The Adobo wings app with 6 pcs was huge and very good. I had the burger and took half of the burger and fries home bc they gave so many fries which were insanely crisp and golden. Love this place. Will def try it again!“

“If You’re in the area, it’s a good hangout place. It’s good to watch games and/or have a good meal. Friendly staff and cozy atmosphere.“

“I got chocolate chips pancake and turkey egg cheese with home fries. Sandwich was good, they added tomato sauce with mayo, so it all blend in together. The pancake was little disappointing as I had to eat it dry because didn’t provide any syrup. But it was soft and fresh. Would order here again.“

“Me and my friend went to this Bar and didn't expect the food to taste so good but we were astounded at the flavor or the food and the preparation of the food.The food was so good that we ordered some to go. What we had was the Meatball with mushroom gravy and also had mozzarella Sticks and marinara sauce.“

“Best fish & chips ever!!!!“

“The best place in the neighborhood“

“Nice to be at an Irish Pub on St Patrick’s day!“

“Very very good food! Our first time here after having heard about it for forever. Good wings, but my partner's shepherd's pie (although made with beef) was the winner, perfectly spiced and delicious. My Jameson chicken was very good as well. Enormous portions and we each brought a large amount home. Best soda bread I've had outside Ireland.

Very friendly attentive service. It was a little hard to hear due to all the hard reflective surfaces and music playing and cheerful people talking, but this was a great place. We'll be back, and are especially interested in the Sunday roast.

Update: back for shepherd's pie and a salad - splitting everything bc the portions were huge. Great food and friendly service.“

“The bartender Pam!!! She makes me want to come back… the people are soo welcoming and the men! Pure GENTLEMEN!! Will def be coming back PAM IS A DOLL AND WILL LOOK OUT FOR THE LADIES!! Thank you Pam she was soo comforting I for one will be back!!!“

“Being in a train station (and a very busy train station) one would not expect a great bar experience - well atleast I wasn’t but I was wrong. A colleague and I were in NYC for a board meeting, and it wrapped up early. She said let’s stop at Irish Exit for a drink and well we did. Once you walk out the “station”, it’s like walking into a true Irish bar (albeit busier). Amazing selection of beer, wine and the hard stuff. Good service, free Wi-Fi and most things can be done via QR code. Will definitely visit next time I’m at Penn.“

“Shepherd's pie is terrific. As is mostly everything on the menu“

“Great group good food and great drinks.“

“We had the best pre cruise visit since we were staying nearby at a hotel. Both bartenders were excellent and the regular customers! Made us “southerners” feel comfy and offered up ideas and suggestions of navigating the concrete jungle! If we ever return to NY, we will definitely be back. Awesome food! Awesome service! Excellent drinks. Made our trip!!“

“First and most important Pamela our waitress was amazing and kind, the other lady’s too thank you for your excellent service you make the experience better, the food was good and fresh, Halloween decoration love it! Even have mocktails if you don’t drink and if you just need a spot to chill out and whatch a game the vibes of the bar 🙌🙌🙌 are 💯“

“I was in the city this weekend for a conference and happened to drop into Playwright Irish Pub on 35th street on Friday night. Conor and the Playwright team were all outstanding hosts. Friendly, attentive, and accommodating. Had such a great time I returned again Saturday night. Thank you for being such great hosts and making a guy from out west feel at home in the city. Cheers!“

“Great experience!!! I been here a year or so and never forgot the great service I received before from Niall! Walked in today and there he was in a great mood even tho his football team didn't make the playoffs (Seahawks) like my squad the damn Giants! But great and convenient spot to check out. A pool table is available too; that's what got me before. Glad I stopped through and my Irish brother was there! I don't think they serve food here but the atmosphere is great and chill.“
