Great music and live band. Bar tenders are quick as well!

Great vibes but terrible draft beers : please clean your pipes - your Stella is dead beer.

If you ever wondered what chaos looks like when combined with arrogance, this place has you covered. The crowd control? Utterly appalling. The layout? A masterpiece of poor design. It’s loud,obviously, but not in a fun, rock ‘n’ roll way. It’s the kind of loud where your ears start writing a resignation letter.

And then… the bouncers. Oh, dear, the bouncers. You know the type: chests puffed out, earpieces in, radiating the kind of misplaced confidence. They don’t just ask you to move; they command it loudly, aggressively, and in the most disrespectful tone possible. You’d think I’d just tried to break into a nuclear facility rather than stand in a non-walking area to watch the band.

It’s less about safety and more about their fragile little egos on parade. Tiny emperors in black T-shirts, wielding power because, apparently, life didn’t give them much else. Honestly, I’ve seen airport security treat suspicious luggage with more courtesy.

So yes, between the ridiculous layout, the deafening noise, and the bouncers on a medieval power trip, this was my first and last visit. Never again.

They have excellent vegetarian brunch options. Genuinely delicious vegetarian eggs benedict. The servers are really friendly and helpful as well. The vibe is relaxed and pleasant. They show European soccer machines as well. A great place.

Great relaxed pub a short walk from the Metro. Staff are awesome and the food and atmosphere are exactly what you want in an Irish pub.

I hadn’t been for a while, but used to go regularly, was sitting on stool at bar, because I’d had hip replacement surgery a month prior, was told without warning that I had to give up stool. When I became upset and tried to explain why, no one would listen and bartender had a hissy fit that I was upset and demanded I immediately close my tab and leave. I still tipped.

Nice neighborhood joint with good food and drink, albeit on the expensive side. Tons of space and comfy seating inside, and all the servers I've interacted with have been a joy. On weekends they do a brunch menu which includes a solid Full Irish.

Wife and I go here once a month or so for Wednesday trivia. Food is surprisingly very good. Can’t go wrong with one of the sandwiches. Even the Irish food is genuinely good.

The man here who looks like a manager wearing a button down short sleeve shirt is incredibly rude and unprofessional. I showed up to trivia night to participate like I have many weeks before and he kicked me out for not ordering food. He threw away my drink that I had purchased because I do not drink alcohol and told me that trivia night is only for paying customers. Do not go to this place it’s terrible and discriminatory.
