Dempsey's Brewery and Pubs nails that authentic Irish atmosphere so well, you half-expect a…read moreleprechaun to pinch your pint while you're not looking. The warm wooden digs and lively vibe make it a proper escape in Watertown, SD, though the only drawback is the constant buzz of chatter drowning out what should be some good ol' Dropkick Murphys tunes. I was particularly impressed by the great pastrami on homemade rye--tender, tangy meat stacked high on fresh-baked bread that could make even a New Yorker do a happy jig. Their bartenders are absolute gems, slinging drinks and banter with the charm of seasoned storytellers who somehow remember your name after one visit. One quirky touch is how the floors creak underfoot, like they're gossiping about all the pints spilled before you. Strangely enough, the soup of the day was tequila, a boozy curveball that had the whole place toasting with confused delight and empty bowls. The house brews hold their own, pairing like old friends with the hearty grub. All in all, Dempsey's is a witty, wonderful Watertown, SD gem.

The Garlic spread that goes on the burger is a long time family secret. Don't wast your time asking for the recipe, you wont get it.

The prop is a rustic lake burger joint you can drive to or pull your boat up on the beach and have a fun time.

Overall we were pleased. After reading all the reviews about how awesome the Garlic Cheeseburger…read morewas, I was rather disappointed. It didn't taste like garlic. My husband had a Habanero Burger and a Buffalo Chicken Sandwich and enjoyed his food, especially the burger. Cute place. It was a bit dark inside for my liking but it is a bar environment after all. Everyone was nice and our server was attentive. My only qualms was the lack of garlic on my burger really. I almost gave this a 3 star because of it but my husband was satisfied with what he got so that makes me happy.

They have a great selection of whiskey including some harder to find stuff like Blantons and higher Crown Royals. The salad bar is one of those great salad bars in roadside steakhouses.

The steak was delicious and the fries were good, as well. The bartender and I talked about the area and discussed the bad weather they've been having lately and I asked about Castlewood. One of those great Midwest places!
