This was my first time visiting this Pub and restaurant, I visited around dinner time an overall had an average experience. The menu had both an American and Irish flair, the sandwich and other food I ordered was okay, but unremarkable. Right in the neighborhood again and wanted a lunch time menu I might visit again, but I don't think I'd visit again for dinner. The atmosphere was fairly typical of a public house and otherwise unremarkable

I went in with a colleague for a quick bite for lunch. The service was very quick and the food was good. The prices were amazing. We both had cheesesteaks and sodas. The cheesesteaks were fresh and the prices were great. I will definitely come back as there were a lot of choices on the menu I would eat. The is a good old fashioned pub with comfort food. Large portions at a fair price.

Love Cawleys! Great Guinness, bar food, and atmosphere! The clientele and staff are welcoming and treat you like family. As someone who grew up in Ireland, I can honestly say it feels like a piece of home.

My go to watering hole. I've tried a bunch in the area. Nobody is consistent and does it like these guys. Good food, good drinks, cheap prices and even better people. They got good rolls and buns. Foods always fresh and good. Can't beat it.

What can I say about this place? A lot! You would not believe the out-of-this-world kitchen that this hidden treasure serves up from its menu! The environment is cheerfully infectious, with laughter ringing from every corner, making it impossible not to smile the moment you step through the door. The establishment is robust with patrons, and from the food alone, I can see why – the bar is alive with so many diversities of people, all having an awesome time. And let's talk about the chicken tenders for a sec – while a simple choice, they are absolutely killer and worthy of your cluck-buck. Seriously, they elevate the humble chicken tender into an art form. The entertainment on the weekends is second-to-none, as I've been here before and had an absolute blast! Order a drink from Chris or any of the staff and get it exactly as you ask for it. Absolut martini, extra extra dry, rocks on the side with olives? Nailed it. Take out? Yup. Beer or food to go. If you feel like having an awesome experience, you simply CANNOT go wrong here. This staff cares about the customer. The food, like those mind-blowing chicken tenders, is like it's homemade with love, and in this crazy inflated world of economics, the price is honestly hard to beat - and it's ABSOLUTELY worth your hard-earned dollar, because as you'll see, leaving here you'll likely say, "Oh, I will definitely be coming back to do this whole thing AGAIN!" And you will. The secret? Good old-fashioned great service, great people, stellar food, and ear-candy all night long. Bravo!

It's a basic pub. My burger was charred to hell and my wife's sausages were cooked to a crisp. The bangers and mash were missing a crucial ingredient... the gravy.The waitress was nice and the atmosphere was a standard bar. I wouldn't go back but I see why locals would like the joint.Beers were cold so that was great. I wouldn't go here if your main purpose is for the food.

Cool Delco-style bar (what we called a "pappy bar" in my youth.) Now that I'm a "pappy" I fit right in. I did not go during a sporting event, but there are at least a dozen good screens indicating it would be a great place to watch the Iggles. I had passed this place for years on my way to get ethnic food on Terminal Square, but a Facebook post indicated they had a great hot turkey, so that's what I set out to try. Menu was VERY varied and I'd eat just about every item on it. Turkey was not highly seasoned (let's face it, the Irish are not famous for their spicy food.) A little salt and pepper was enough to liven it up. Served piping hot and exuded freshness. Bartender treated me like a regular, though it was my first time there. Poured a proper Guinness and a healthy shot of Tullamore Dew. I could barely believe the bill. I've paid a hell of a lot more for far less. Will be on my regular rotation.
