    Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich
    Kelly S.

    The Celtic Monkey Irish Pub and Grill is located on Carolina Beach Road. It isn't visible from the road but is in shops right behind Cookout. It offers a cozy atmosphere with Irish-inspired cuisine. I got the steak and cheese Philly and tots - I'm not sure how Irish my choice was but it was DELICIOUS! The pub is also pet-friendly, has outdoor seating, and hosts quiz nights and live music. We had been out shopping and came in for a late lunch starving! Our waitress was great and food came out quick! Yay! If you are a local or think you will frequent Celtic Monkey make sure to get a lunch loyalty card and earn free food just by eating there.

    Someone recommended this place to me, so we gave it a shot today. Lunch was great! I had the combo (half sandwich and a choice of salad or soup) Reuben sandwich with their soup of the day: loaded potato soup. Wow, that soup was so delicious! Thanks to our waitress who recommended it to me. It had nice chunks of potatoes, bacon, onions, scallions, diced ham, and topped with cheddar cheese. The sandwich was good, but not a whole lot of meat. However, for me, it was enough. And it wasn't drenched in the dressing, but a nice amount. DH had the steak and Guinness pie, which was topped with a puff pastry. The meat was very tender and it included carrots, peas, and potatoes. He did say the dish had potatoes on one half and meat on the other half. It should be added to the plate evenly. In any case, he enjoyed it. We had good service by our waitress, who was kind to give recommendations. Casual atmosphere. Uncomfortable seats. The bathrooms need a good cleaning. Reasonable prices and a nice menu with a variety of foods. Overall, a good Irish pub. We will be back with friends.

    Philly Cheesesteak Sandwich

    This place is a must go to! The food is awesome, the staff is so friendly and the Irish music just adds to the r place. We got the fried mushrooms for an appetizer, they were so good we got a second, my husband got a chicken sandwich but they tossed it on a buffalo sauce for him, I got the cheesesteak it was so good, my daughter got the bangers and mash( so good), the bangers are from Ireland, my son got grilled shrimp and fries. Go and check them out, they have a pub inside and outside they have an outside bar.

    Hawaiian burger
    Theresa Z.

    Food: delicious. Drinks plenty. I had the non bun burger on the menu and it was fantastic! My son had the Hawaiian burger and just inhaled it in quiet lol so the fact that happened was a sign it was going to become a regular place. He requested it again recently and since this review have gone 3 times. My youngest only wanted the fresh masked potatoes and did a job on those. He loved the chicken tenders and Mac and cheese the other two times. They ended their nights with fried Oreos or cheesecake. Interior/exterior: typical Irish pub and I loved that vibe. The staff was so nice and interactive/attentive. Casual atmosphere, smalls interior, live music playing on the patio, outside seating was much more open imo. Inside is a mixture of bar stool tables and bar seating too. Small tables and there were limited bird with a couple being partial seating. Bathrooms are clean! Single occupant only but clean!

    Rachel Sandwich and French Fries

    Another great meal tonight! I didn't receive the credit but they did give me a free French onion soup. Tonight I ordered the Rachel and it was very good and my fries were also great.

    Love the environment. Yummy food and beer

    Loved the environment and beer. The fish and chips were amazing. Come check it out. Also, great place to come and watch a game.

    We love this place. One of our favorite new stops. We try to come here once or twice a week. Staff is fun and fabulous. Food is good, drinks are great, and the setting is inviting. Location is also great for us!

    Beef on Weck Sandwich
    Cassandra B.

    Had a wonderful lunch here. The Beef on Weck was on point! I was a huge fan of the Beef in Weck at College Deli and this was just as good. . . Actually, it was better! My husband and son had fries as their side and they didn't leave a single one behind. I has a side salad that was delicious as well. Our server was friendly and our orders were correct. We arrived a little after noon and by 12:30 it was packed. It wasn't overly loud and the atmosphere was very relaxed. I'm looking forward to dining here again!

    Cute little modern Irish pub! We grabbed lunch on a Sunday and it was super tasty. Highly recommend the beef on weck (kind of like a French dip on a bun) which was so delicious! The fish and chips were really great to. Crisp (not thick) beer batter, flaky cod. The fries too!

    The only thing better than the food was the service. Gotta get the Brussels app. Burger was cooked perfectly.

    Incredible is the only word to describe this place, the beef on week is on point. Don't forget to try the Irish potato bombs

    Food is great and service is excellent! A little on the pricey side and I cannot attest to ambience because I get to-go orders.

    Finally! After many years, we made it back to Copper Penny! On our return trip from Southport we…read morestopped in downtown to grab a bite before heading home. We started walking around and my wonderful wife suggested Copper Penny. Absolutely! There was a short wait for a table, but we didn't mind. The inside is almost like we remember it. We did notice the menu is a lot smaller. The last time we dined here was around ten years ago. Definitely plenty of options. We went with the onion ring appetizer, Cobb salad, and the BBQ Burger. The atmosphere of Copper Penny is the same. Definitely missed this place. After a short wait our food was brought out. Everything was delicious. This is just an update, but we still love Copper Penny and will continue to return.

    Good service but the food was so so. Figured we would try the Guy Fieri recommendations. Nice…read morelittle spot in an old building. Only like 9 tables so plan accordingly or you will have to wait awhile. Go during off peak hours to ensure a short wait time. Now the food...... 1. Cheese Steak Egg Rolls served w/chipotle ranch......Amazing!!!! Best we have ever had. 2. 109 Chestnut Chicken Sandwich had an amazing balance of ingredients that would make your mouth water. Very good and the fries as well. 3. Hot Roasted Pork Sandwich was very bland and had an excessive amount of spinach. Even the Au Jus couldn't rescue this sandwich. 4. The famous onion rings. Well they must of ran out of seasoning because these were more flour than flavor. Very doughy with no spices. Not worth the $9 * The alcohol mix drinks are pretty good. Definitely taste the flavor of each. Will give you a good kick.
