As the name suggests, Paddy O'Ryan is an Irish pub nestled right into a bustling Leeuwarden street…read more I really liked this pub. The servers were friendly and prompt, prices reasonable and atmosphere cozy. Paddy O'Ryan's was also where I had my first bitterballen, which is basically a deep fried ball of meat. It was surprisingly good, however I am convinced I could deep fry my pinky toe and it would taste good.

Paddy O'Ryan is a welcoming Irish pub, but also a great restaurant as well. Irish stew, burgers and…read morefish and chips are available, but there are several other great options on the menu including vegetarian stuffed peppers, and seafood. I had a nice piece of baked catfish, crusted with almonds and salami. Served with salad and chips (fries), this made for a very satisfying meal. Beer selections include Guinness, of course, as well as Kilkenny, Grolsch, and Old Speckled Hen. They have a fine selection of whiskey and scotch, with several rotating varieties. The best part about Paddy O'Ryan is the free live music on Wednesdays, varying from traditional Irish music to alt country. Local groups as well as international touring acts find their way to Paddy's, which must be a good sign!

I've been here twice now and the first thing you notice when you walk in is how incredibly stuffy…read moreit is. Perhaps this is due to it being cold outside already in October but it feels uncomfortable at first and then you just get used to it. They could use more air flow inside. I don't know how the staff can handle it. The beer selection is pretty great. The beers are all listed on the menu, from draft to bottled. I went with a friend who knew what to recommend. They have a house beer on tap too. The selection is especially good if there's a Belgian beer you've been meaning to try. I had beers here that I never heard of before. They have other drinks in case you don't want/like beer. They also have shots. The first time I came in, it was quite busy in the evening so we sat at a high top table by the bathroom. The second time was earlier on a Saturday evening so we sat at a table.

5 stars baby, can't hold back the enthusiasm I have for this tucked away Brooklyn-style alleyway…read morerestaurant. I'm talkin lady-n-the-tramp candlelight with a west side story staircase entrance. Food, as a vegetarian, is great, meat lovers would probably dig the options as well. I didn't even order dessert I can't handle the home made ice cream or the strawberry white chocolate tart. Not this time. Internet for working or writing on yelp, beers on tap and I hear there's live music quite often at the bar downstairs. I don't want to overstate things but her pakhuis might be the coolest place to eat in all of Groningen! --- chhhhhallenge!
