Great pub! The bloodys are like a mini meal! Servers are nice. We went on a Saturday afternoon when they were serving brunch but our server let us order an appetizer off the regular menu even though that didn't start until 3! The server consistently checked on us As did the manager, however, they weren't annoying or over doing it. Definitely recommend! read more

Nice classic pub atmosphere, very good food, and good service. The flatiron steak was great quality for the price, and the cheese curds were delicious. Not very crowded at the moment, so nice for a quiet lunch. read more

The best bar and grill in downtown Minneapolis. Food is great, drinks are the best, but Jen is by far the best bartender ever. Made us feel so welcome while we were her for the Final Four!!! Thanks. read more

Hands down, THE BEST Irish spot in the city. Authentic, detailed, and fun. Did I mention the food and drinks are out of this world? A must have in any city. Thanks Dan Kellys read more

The food sucks and the managers are very rude. I wouldn't recommend this place to my dog

I came in here on a very frigid Saturday evening. Nothing like -13F temps to keep you motivated to walk fast between heated buildings. It was busy but not bad. They had a few TV's to watch sports by the bar. There are a lot of tables throughout the bars & plenty of seating at the bar. There was one bartender for the entire large bar but he was pretty amazing at keeping up. 2 more bartenders showed up within 20 minutes of me being there. I ordered the cheese curds & their house IPA. The cheese curds were absolutely perfect. Lightly battered, crispy, gooey deliciousness. The prices were actually pretty reasonable. They have a very limited tap list but overall, I enjoyed my experience here. I would come here again. read more

If you don't love this place for happy hour, after game drinks or whatever, you really don't like life.

Stumbled on this on Saturday afternoon unsure of what even sounded good. Can't go wrong with good pub food though and this was good. Poutine with fried egg. Nuff said. I'm not a drinker but the bar was hopping and the choices looked ample enough. Enjoy yourself. read more

A short walk from the Marriott City Center, great place to relax and have a variety of brews. The food was great both days we were there and the price is right! read more

Dan Kelly's Pub - Front entrance - Burgers Near Me - Minneapolis, Minnesota

We stopped in on a cold Saturday night for a night cap. The waitress was more hammered than we were. Took forever to get our drinks. She actually walked by the bar and looked at our order, and just kept on going. The crowd and beers were great, but the mixed drinks need some help. read more

Walking in here with several friends, one of the bartender with the F cap wasn't so friendly and extremely rude. After one drink, we all left. I don't agreed with buying one drink at a time either. Especially for the Super Bowl 52 event. read more

So we popped in while on a convention trip after looking at the website and the pictures! Well, the waitress had only started that very day--10:30 in the morning to be exact!! She was to say the least--OVERWHELMED!! We had to seat ourselves and even clean off the table!!! After about 20 minutes without any recognition from anybody I walked over and got our own menus. The "waiter" asked where we were sitting.... HUH?? That's when we learned it was her first day!!!!! Then my DEWARS order was not to be found!!!! ??? I then changed my order and TADA.... my Dewars was found in a plastic cup!!? Wanting Shephards pie I went for I guess their version.... No where near what I'm used to!!! NOT A HAPPY CAMPER BUT WHO DO I BLAME??!! read more

Prices are high but most places are overpriced downtown. Four Jim beams was 28. Pbr is like 4.50 and the scotch eggs are 8 but there's only one of them split in half. It's egg(s) folks. Not egg. Rewrite your menu or lower your price. Just saying. Overall it was an average experience. Probably a great place for business types to sneak away and get hammered at lunch. My business ass don't have no more business there. read more

Visited with a group of 8 last night for dinner. 3 of the group ordered pot pie. 10 minutes after ordering the waiter informed them they only had 2 pot pies left. I had the fish & chips. 2 huge pieces of fish, but they were very overcooked. The waiter took my empty glass when I requested another beer. After 20 minutes without another beer being brought to the table, I just asked for the check & left. I shouldn't have to wait 20 minutes for another beer when they weren't busy at all. read more

We were visiting from KC to see the KC/Twins game. We stumbled on this place around noon on Saturday. Our server/bartender Justin was so nice and then Derek talked to us about baseball for quite a long time. We went back this morning for breakfast and AJ was our server/bartender and what a sweet guy. This place has the nicest people working here and the food is good. We aren't big cheese eaters and cheese was in everything we had but not taking a star away for that because it's our preference. We will definitely visit Dan Kelly's next year when the Royals play the Twins again and we fly up for the game. Thanks Dan Kelly for your friendly staff and making us feel welcomed. read more

Fun place..Aj on top of his game..running the joint like a machine..been here a couple of times -zero complaints....it's an Irish bar what can go wrong....if you happen to stop in see Aj-you will not be disappointed read more

Terrible. Smelled bad like sewage and there were fruit flies all over the sink. The drink was terrible. Don't go here ever!

I checked out the new DK Pub, and it was still solid. Friendly staff and good food. Fish and chips were great, with homemade curry ketchup and tartar sauce that were excellent. They also source their meat (and other ingredients) locally, which is a plus. They haven't done a grand opening yet, so decor and entrance were very low-key, but I'm sure it will be great when it "officially" opens! read more

We went here on a Saturday afternoon to play some pool and have a beer. The beer was flat and served in a warm glass. The pool table was filthy. It had beer stains all over it. I found the brush and tried to clean off some of the built up gunk. The cloth had two rips and the balls were dirty. I had a rag in my pool case and tried to clean them without much success. There was no light over the table so it was hard to see as well. The table had a sticker that said AAA American Amusement Arcades 952-887-5200. I'll check to see if I can rate them as well. Went once. Never again. read more

Great food! We had a great brunch. I loved the poutine. My wife enjoyed her carmel French toast. The kitchen split waffles for our sons which they enjoyed. Our four year old even said "this is really good food!" Ha. The atmosphere is a casual pub setting. Very low key. The staff were friendly and accommodating. read more

Awesome staff. Super friendly. Stop by and say hi to Jason he is great!! Came here on a whim (from out of state and it happened to be near my hotel) and felt like I was part of the family. Great place!! read more

Like many people have said, it's a pretty fine Irish pub. Food is excellent. Drink is excellent. Service is excellent. Atmosphere is excellent. read more

Friendly service. Great beer selection. I had the chicken pot pie: very fresh ingredients. Appetizer sliders are good as well. Will always keep Kelly's Pub in mind for a late night drink and food read more

A sorry excuse for an Irish pub. The worst Guinness I have ever had. Bartender was pouring them like miller lite. Somebody even tried to help him and he said he was behind the bar and he will pour how he likes. read more

Great food, relaxed atmosphere, love this place. I had the egg burger and it was nice and runny and delicious.

Dan Kelly's reminds me of a Northeast Bar in Downtown Minneapolis. The prices are in line with other downtown bars, but their Whiskey program is top notch. If you are a knowledgeable whiskey/bourbon or scotch fan, this place has some gems for a good price. Lot of locals and service industry workers hang out at this bar, so if you are from out of town, strike up a conversation with people at the bar and you may get the inside scoop on cool stuff going on around town. They have a great happy hour from 3pm-6pm (I believe, I could be wrong), where you can get a lot of good craft brews for $4-$5. I love the diversity of their bartenders, they are always nice and go the extra mile if you are nice to them. I have never ate there under new ownership, so I cant speak to the food quality. Overall, a chill atmosphere with a small town bar feel in Downtown Minneapolis. read more

I had the absolute worst experience today at lunch. A co-worker and I arrived at around 11:30AM - the restaurant was half full. Our waitress brought us water and took about 10 minutes to come back to us to take our order. We ordered our lunch and sat and waited. And waited. And waited. She refilled our water and never apologized for the delay or made mention that the kitchen was behind. And we waited. Finally, after being there for 50 minutes, drinking three glasses of water and seeing food being delivered to tables who came after us, we decided to leave. The waitress, as well as the manager, hostess and four other servers must have walked by us 50 times and didn't say a word to us about the delays. Seems like the old DK crappy service never left. I wish I could give them a better review. I love their Happy Hour, but the lack of communication and crap service is enough for me to drink and eat else where. read more

Worst mixed drinks I've had in a while. Pretty slow place. Recommend going somewhere else. I'm sure the die hard locals like this place but save yourself the time and find somewhere more interesting read more

I give this bar 4 Stars where otherwise it should be a 5. I love the atmosphere and great drink selection. Unfortunately, I was actually assaulted by a bartender inside of Dan Kelly's in late December 2016. She butted in on a private conversation with another patron and decided to use bar supplies as projectiles. We were simply talking about the results of the presidential election. By far the most negative customer service experience in all of the Twin Cities establishments. This person's hate and ignorance can not deter the fact that it doesnt represent the company's values. read more

Good atmosphere, friendly bartender, and their chicken pot pie is amazing!!!

Literally one of the most bizarre experiences I've ever had. After ordering drinks, we started taking photos of each other, only to start getting yelled at about copyright issues with bud light and that we were violating some copyright infringement...we were not drinking beer nor had nothing on us indicating a beer. I kept saying that I dint understand, but we wouldn't take photos and she just kept yelling that I should "know better". My clients were asked if they paid for their drinks and then the glass was knocked out of their hands causing glasses to break and then were kicked out. The whole thing made no sense and I never seen such a horrible approach to managing anything. Not to mention, I still don't understand what happened. read more

Went there for a business lunch and had great service and good food. Music was a bit loud, but tolerable.

Had drinks and apps at the bar,food was great,drinks and service by Jason behind the bar was exceptional. He went above and beyond to accommodate us and even stuffed olives with blue cheese for a martini. Enjoyed this pub throughly and would definitely return. read more

Really nice, welcoming place with great service and selection! I would definitely return!

The worst dining experience I have had to date. Terrible service is an understatement. It took 1.5 hrs to get our food and they brought out the order for two out of the six of us. The rest of our food came 15 minutes later. The waitress was rude and messed up our order and then had the audacity to argue and tell us that we were wrong. I told some people that were getting seated next to us about our experience and they got up and left before they even ordered. The Burger was actually pretty good although they forgot the pickles and onions. This was the first time in my life that I actually did not leave a tip, it was that bad! read more

This place is a rocking local joint. A true diamond in the rough. I came in not knowing what to expect. I got treated to a nice staff.. Pro tip.. Get the pot pie read more

I loved this bar!! I came to Minneapolis last weekend for the first time and absolutely loved it. The food at Dan Kelly's was delicious (I highly recommend the BLT with avocado and fried egg + the poutine!) and the staff was very friendly. I came with a group of 11 people and we were seated immediately without problem. We got our food very quickly and the prices weren't too expensive, either. I'd highly recommend going to this restaurant for dinner / drinks. read more

Came here on a Sunday evening. Complete disorganization. We sat at a high top in the bar. Servers walked by numerous times...no one ever acknowledged us. We had to get our drinks at the bar. The male bartender kept telling us "she" (female with a shaved head) would be over. He really didn't seem to care. No one ever served us. After getting two overpriced beers at the bar, we left. Go elsewhere. Some additional info....Once our friend arrived, he asked a male (brown bun) about parking across the street (we were from out of town, our friend doesn't come into the city). The male's response was, "Read the sign...I'm not a parking meter." As a former server, I find it amazing that a restaurant employee, someone who should be showing hospitality to guests, could be so rude. Perhaps the loud/deafening, angry music they play really impacts their mood. I'd fire every employee I saw. Who owns this place to allow this kind of behavior?! read more

Our hotel was just around the corner from this place. We enjoyed the food and the staff so much, we went there twice in our short stay. The bar had a great variety, the happy hour specials were awesome and the food was delicious. Very glad we tried this place. read more

We went to the "new and improved" Dan Kelly's for Happy Hour last week and were very disappointed. We were excited about the new ownership as we had heard good things from their other establishments, but the service here was beyond poor. There were waitress's standing around, but it still took 10 - 15 minutes to get an order of tap beers brought to our table after we ordered them and the bar wasn't even half full. Hopefully they get the issues ironed out, but it was beyond disappointing. read more
