Great Irish pub! Nice selection of whiskeys and beer.

They have worked hard to create a legit Irish pub feel (food, whiskey, beer, atmosphere, etc). The food is quite good. Stafing has been a challenge for them, so service can be spotty. lif you have the patience, you can have a good experience here.

One of my go to places in Appleton. Just about as authentic as you can get for an Irish pub in the States. Great selection of whiskey, Guinness and the like on tap and poured properly. There are often very good musical performances there. And when Matt puts on an event it is top notch. This combined with the homey atmosphere and friendly clientele make it a place worth trying multiple times.

Stopped in for drinks. Fun crowd, great bartenders, and awesome music. Ask for a nutty Irishman drink....

By far my favorite pub in the Valley. Matt, the owner, takes the time to get to know his guests on a personal basis. I always get called by name when I come in. Everyone must check this little gem a block off of College Ave! #

Authentic Irish food, Irish drink, Irish atmosphere, and of course Irish personalities! This is my second home in the valley and my nights begin and end right here.

Came to visit here with a friend and immediately love the atmosphere!Irish through and throughWe ended up getting 2 glasses of a vanilla porter that was so smooth, and to pair it with an order of the Fries with Irish Curry Sauce was so nice.We will be coming again to try more of the food (Shepards pie most likely)And shout out to the drunk individual complimenting my beard and asking if we wanted to join in on the UNO game, might have too next time!Vegetarian options: Definitely have Vegetarian options!!!

Best place in town for a beer and a good time. The bartender was awesome. The owner gave us a free shot and was all about having a good time.

Pub has a great selection of beer and cocktails. The Irish spin on a long island iced tea is superb. This bar (unlike the *redacted* bar in the area) will actually take the time to look at your passport card if they were to assume (incorrectly) that your ID is fake. The rings game is better than the pool table offered at the *redacted* bar.Service at the bar is top notch.

If I didn't live all the way in Idaho this would be my go to place. Pretty sure it's not the place to step in and say "God save the Queen!" It was cool to see the Michael Collins quote and the Irish Declaration of Independence. Very friendly people, both the staff and the patrons...you helped make my trip to Lambeau Field that much better!
