My wife and I enjoyed hanging out at the bar on a Saturday night while checking out downtown Temple nightlife. It’s a great bar with a decent assortment of beers on tap. We were especially happy to find Smithwick’s on tap. The bartenders - Shelby and Skyla (I apologize if I misspelled!) were great. They gave us lots of info on the bar and Temple in general. The live entertainment that night - James Stone was also very good!
Ordered a few pizzas from here. They were actually really good.. the Irishman pizza is great!! It's slightly thicker than a thin crust.

Came in for to go pizza and the young lady behind the bar was very upbeat and filled me in on the live music. From a guy who may not drink anymore....they are still very welcoming. Will be back for dinner and the young lady musician in mid Sept.!

Listen, I’m from Boston — basically the Irish-Italian capital of the world — and lemme tell ya, this place is the bomb.
The poutine? Tastes like it came straight from my local fish shack back home. Burger’s a solid 9 outta 10… could use a touch more sauce, my guy, but you’re doin’ wicked good work here.
This joint? Makes me feel right at home. Glad I stumbled on ya. You’re gonna see my face every week, so just get my order ready.
Wicked spot to be — look it up.

It was okay, interesting owner.
Little bit politically.Correct, but I understand that.
Otherwise friendly half decent food
exactly what you want from an irish pub.
food was good, might ask for extra sauce on the side for some of the burgers
fish and chips have actual cod, which was a huge plus. delicious. will try the shepherds pie next time.
nice servers, pleasant atmosphere. musics a bit loud outside but no real complaints.

Tried this place back in April 2025 with my cousin and aunt while visiting my sister at Temple College. Went around 10:30-11pm, food and drinks were really good! It wasn’t really packed for a Saturday night which was surprising. But maybe one day when I’m around Temple I’ll try this place out again!

When I used to live in London, my favorite dish was Bangers and Mash. I never knew I'd be able to find them in Temple, Texas!!! Great pub food rated from someone who has lived in the UK.
