I've been here 3 times with my family and the food and service are always top notch! They decorate the place according to the holiday which my daughter loves. Their hot pies are amazing. My wife and mother in law loved the chicken pot pie. I tried the shepards pie and it was delicious! Other dish I tried was the chicken noodle soup which was tasty and had a lot of noodles and chicken chunks which was nice. They also make great house salads, always fresh and the dressing is made in house and we all enjoy it. The prices for beer are good as well. They have game day special and even without the special $6.50 for an IPA pint is a solid price. We had the chocolate cake twice and it is extremely rich and exploding with flavor. If you love chocolate you will love the cake. Last but not least they have so many TVs and they play all types of sports including bowling, golf, cornhole, so it really can be entertaining for anyone. This is a must stop if you are in the area! read more

Delaney's Irish Pub - Triple Chocolate Cake - Irish Near Me - Mckinney, Texas

Came here Monday night to chill and play some darts. The bar had a nice vibe. No one ever came over to check on us or see if we needed anything but it was ok. We had a couple drinks and some cheese fries and Philly cheese things. The food was ok, nothing special, but im sure they have better items on the menu. They have 3 dart boards, some pool tables, plenty of TVs and tables for you to watch whatever game your heart desires. read more

Maddie gave exceptional service, I haven't had that good of service at a bar in a long time.

Maddie is amazing bartender and server! We had a party of 8 at the bar and she managed to accommodate all the special orders and drinks to each tab and order that we had told her! She also was very quick and handled everything above and beyond. read more

Delaney's Irish Pub - Legendary Fish & Chips - Irish Near Me - Mckinney, Texas

For more years than I can recall, I have enjoyed both dine-in and carry out food from Delaneys. One of my favorites are the Guinness Stew and the Chicken pot pie, both of which are outstanding. This evening I ordered another pot pie for carry out. Within the first few bites it became clear that this pot pie was something special. After I finished my meal I called the recipe and talked to the manager on duty, to let them know this that this pie was indeed EXTRA SPECIAL. The manager was glad to hear my complement and stated that they have recently tweaked a few of their selections and are glad to hear a complement. I told the manager that whatever they are doing- they certainly waived the magic wand on this selection. BRAVO for improving an already excellent dish ! ! ! read more

I did not have high expectations when coming here, wasn't sure how it would be. When I saw there was Shepherd's Pie, I had to try it, haven't had that in the longest time. It ended up being outstanding! But the coolest thing I saw was the guinness stew. My partner and I tried it, decicious! I will definitely be a returning customer! read more

We used to love the Ruben sandwich. Used to have LOTS of meat cut very fine so it was a dream to eat. Last two times there was very little meat and cut thick! NOT GOOD! read more

Overall a great dinner experience. The place was warm and inviting as you would expect an "Irish Pub" to be. Plenty of big screen TVs for the sports fans. Our server was prompt, attentive and friendly. We had the pub nachos, garlic parm wings, shepherds pie, and Addy's Strawberry Shortcake which were all excellent.....except the nachos were a little over cooked. The only other negative is that they don't offer sweet tea. :-( Cmon, this IS Texas. LOL We will be returning soon. read more

Love the casual vibe, not too fancy but also not a dive bar (which I don't mind). Despite being pretty busy, we were served quickly. The fish & chips were great as were the Philly eggrolls. Just moved to this part of town & am looking forward to coming back! read more

Great food and service. Never been disappointed when visiting here. I like everything on their menu. They have Guinness on tap.

Saddened to say portions are getting smaller, and our favorite lemon pepper jumbo wings lacked seasoning and flavor. read more

One of the best Reubens you'll find - recommend the side winders or sweet potato fries over the traditional - corned beef and cabbage, fish n chips are great, Shepards pie and chicken pot pie are hearty, jumbo wings are always juicy, the monte cristo and the lettuce wraps are surprisingly good for an Irish pub - that being said it is a pub - so you should just flag down someone to serve you even if a host is there to sit you - see some reviews that say they sat too long to get served but it's a friendly pub so just wave down someone and don't be shy about it - we usually just go to the pool tables or dart area and just find a waiter or ask the bartender for service - tried every dessert - the bread pudding is our fav read more

Great food, and a great place to watch football. Plus, Cara is an awesome bartender!!!

I have been Pet sitting for a nice couple in McKinney and it's my first time in this beautiful neighborhood! I asked the Owners what some of their favorite places to eat are and the first place they mentioned was Delaney's Irish Pub. I looked at their Menus online and there are so many delicious items to choose from but what stuck out to me was my all time fave Shepherds Pie. I decided to order this for Dinner and for dessert I got the Bread Pudding. The Shepherds Pie comes with a side salad so I got mine with Pub Ranch dressing. When the food was delivered it was nice and hot and smelled so good. It didn't take long for me to dive into my food and every bite was even better than the one before!! I would like to go to the restaurant to dine in soon because I want to try their Fish and Chips and cocktails. I'm hooked! read more

Fun, casual, Irish pub that looks just like you're probably imagining. Our server, Marcel, was nice and attentive, while still letting us enjoy a quiet meal. They have a lot of different options to choose from but we stuck to more of the "traditional" items. The corned beef and cabbage, and shepherd's pie were so good. Definitely comfort food. The shepherds pie came with a salad as well. They have a dill pickle soup that is a must have. It's not very pickle forward but you can taste it. It's hearty with potatoes and chicken. I ate it so fast I didn't get a picture of it. Their potato skins were kind of basic and not very good in my opinion. read more

Great service and beer selection was perfect! Food was ok, we love Scottish eggs, if i could give some advice to use a sausage casing with more seasoning. Thanks for a great time! read more

Good food, nice atmosphere and a perfect place to meet up with friends. Nice cold beers! Thank you

My husband and I came last year and enjoyed ourselves. We came again with our family of 4 today...so disappointing. Upon first arriving, It took 20 minutes to get my husbands bottled beer...it was the wrong beer. Our waitress took our order and my 5 year old sons wings came out wrong. (I had ordered 10 pieces half lemon pepper/half plain with Buffalo sauce). We were told to remake would take time but we agreed not knowing that 30 + minutes would go by to receive the 5 wings with no time update...Nothing else was offered for him...(no fries or other thing to snack on) so I had to make him eat the lemon wings he didn't like. There also was no discount offered for the mistake on their part. Table was unattended many times, the hostess had to get our waitress and silverware... I would never recommend taking a family here... read more

I have been to Delaney's three times with friends and would go back again. The restaurant is spacious and lively. The service has been consistently very inattentive across all visits, but the food is decent and the cocktails are average and it's a good, casual place to spend an evening with friends, especially if you visit on a Tuesday for trivia night. read more

Really like this place. Good corned beef sammiches and Guinness on draft. Friendly atmosphere. Great place to watch sports with friends and family read more

Why you have someone screaming on a mic for some trivia game let alone playing loud heavy metal music between questions is beyond me. What makes restaurants think people want to hear nonsense when they just want to have dinner will always baffle me. Not only that people as you can see in the Jukebox app screenshot are paying money to hear songs but they aren't playing the music. Instead the wannabe DJ with the obnoxious microphone is playing his own tunes. So the jukebox just takes your money basically.... read more

My wife and I went here last week as we are trying out new (to us) restaurants in McKinney as new residents. The ambience is very much like a combination of a restaurant and pub with booth and table seating, a large bar, and dart boards and pool tables. My wife started out of the a seasonal mixed drink that was pretty tasty - I can't remember the name of it, but I believe it had vodka, raspberry puree, and sprite. We let the server know we had never been there before, and she gave us a sample of some of their appetizers - the Philly rolls and Texas Taters, with a side of ranch. These appetizers were awesome! For our entrees, I had the Fish and Chips, and my wife had the Shepherd's Pie. The fish and chips were cooked well, not overly greasy, and the tartar sauce was good in flavor. I really enjoyed the fries because they were seasoned well, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. My wife's Shepherd's Pie was great - full of flavor, great presentation in a ceramic dish, and the portion size was good. For dessert, we shared a triple chocolate cake that was rich and flavorful. We enjoyed everything about the food and the ambience, and we will be back. read more

I love me an Irish pub! Delaney's is a pretty nice place, a bit bigger and more "American" than a typical Irish pub, but I do love the remote control jukebox so I can play some Flogging Molly and Dropkick Murphys! Drinks were good and reasonably priced, staff is very friendly, I had the pretzel starter which was delicious, and then the Shepherd's Pie which was also delicious, but small for $15. I expect bigger portions at an Irish pub, and though it was one of the best SPs I've tasted, it was the size of a side. Everything else was excellent! read more

Our neighborhood bar. Took my girl for some happy hour darts on Friday. The place always has a friendly vibe and is bigger than it looks from the outside. At 5 pm the place was slow but by 7 pm it was pretty full. We had the nachos and the lettuce wraps and they were definitely on point. Isabella made sure our drinks were good and she was awesome. Playing dartswas fun but bring your own darts. We love coming here!!! read more

One of the best Irish pubs in North Dallas. We almost always sit at the bar wherever we go and the people here make this one of our best experiences. Big, awesome food menu, with some real stars - fish and chips are unmatched, both kinds. Actual Irish food, corned beef and cabbage, and bangers and mash are very authentic. The Reuben is my wife's favorite and the whole thing is awesome, all the parts, bread, thousand island, corned beef, cheese, all the right proportions, just super-good. Their fries are good, but you gotta try the SIDEWINDER fries if you are a fry lover. We are also jukebox fans and we always play awesome music whenever we are there. The ambience is lively, upbeat, and we have come to often see people we know, most everyone is friendly and talkative, spurred on by the awesome bartenders. To Cara, Lindsey, Maddie, and everyone, thanks! See y'all soon! read more

Great food- we have tried many dishes and love them all- Guinness on tap- great people to serve you!!

Crazy to say but I ended up going here twice in one week once for late lunch and then a surprise birthday dinner. Definitely a kool place to hang out and maybe play a game of pool or darts or even just chill at the bar. The puzzling part to me is both times I have went the Irish food has been ok to mid but the burgers and cheese sticks are smacking. I ordered the fish and chips and my friend ordered the shepherds pie. The fish was two big although I really appreciate the portion size it needs to be cut in half then battered and cooked. Batter would not stay on the fish and the middle was cold. The chips are potato wedges cut in the middle? Good but not chips. Now the good!! Cheese Sticks and fried pickles are nice sized and tasted great. And if you are craving a good burger the Owners burger is a good choice. It's kinda like a keep going back until I find something good because I'm fat and Irish type of place. read more

I ordered the fish and chips! It wasn't bad but it wasn't the best I've ever had either! The breading fell off the fish and you should be able to eat fish with your hands and not a fork! The taste was just okay. The potatoes were really good but to much salt! I ordered through DoorDash so I can't attest to their service or their ambiance. read more

In tenth grade I thought I'd met the love of my life in my first real boyfriend- Eric. Now there's a lot of reasons I liked this guy - he had a car (that was a BIG deal even though it backfired and everyone at school would duck when he dropped me off) and he worked as a manager at the local McDonald's so obviously the smell of pickles and ketchup mixed with Gravity cologne were catnip to me. Plus...what girl doesn't want a guy in an authoritarian role and a uniform? So what if it was McD's? It didn't hurt he was older too (21) and had zero ambition other than to be in a band (he wasn't nearly that cool). On our first date he took me and another couple out to Applebee's in Longview and y'all...he paid for everyone. That included a cheese stick app! That must have been $35 back in 1996 and I immediately knew this guy was the real thing. Guys don't just drop that many $5s without super loving you. Fast forward past "I love you" and "I'm never going to college" and six months in this fool dumps me because I was not about to go past ticket check-in, LET ALONE let him go to any base other than his gramp's basement ALONE. In comes some chick named Sabby that worked at the Valero and let's just say in a day I lost my boyfriend and my dignity at PE as I whaled on Sabby's sister. Now jump to 2013. I'm at a McDs in Forney and I see this fool working there and we make eye contact. He hadn't aged well and after years of hard living it showed. He came around to hug me and I backed up, mostly because he smelled of alcohol and while I like a good drink with my #2 meal, DAYUUUUMMMMMMM GINA! Meanwhile I was looking pretty good and as I tell my kids "I just said one thing..."You lost this!" It's probably the only time in life when I've been confident I made good choices. Another moment was stepping into Delaney's (see what I did there?) as unlike Eric NO ONE RUSHES YOU TO DO ANYTHING Service is always on point and when they recommend something they won't turn around and STAB YOU IN THE BACK with that pickle soup spoon. Speaking of the pickle soup...it's a top 3 question I get as to what that really tastes like. I'd say it's as salty as I was in 1996 but to be accurate it tastes like a cream of chicken soup with tons of fresh dill and pickle pieces. It's enough for you to go "okay. I see what you did there" but not enough for you to make that face you make when you mow down a concession stand pickle. Other things it won't do? Pretend it's something it's not (hi Eric). This place knows that if it has shepherds pie and Guinness stew on the menu it had better deliver on every front and boy...does it. Every member of DropKick Murphy's and Peaky Blinders would agree that this place has LEGIT Irish fare. It feels like you are an extra in The Departed but not one who gets taken out like EVERYONE IN THAT MOVIE. Other favorites? Oldest is all about the chicken pot pie here and they must use an entire one in there. Youngest loves the wings and burgers. I'm partial to the stews, soups and sometimes the ahi, which I know is weird but just go with me here. It's FANTASTIC. I thought seeing Eric in 2013 was great but then I had a leprechaun kiss here and it was SO MUCH BETTER. I give this joint three Murphy's, an O'Shea and two Southie street hockey games, which means it's awesome. Make sure to put some tunes on the jukebox (Bon Jovi is always a Terri choice as I need to hear Living on a Prayer each time I inhale carbs) and get food drunk or drunk drunk (drive responsibly!) read more

Food and ambiance were fine but the service was terrible, the waitress just dropped things off and walked off so fast and seemed not to care. I'm in the service industry so I get it but her just giving no care and zero intent to do a decent job is terrible. Easily the worst service I've experienced. The server name was Lindsey read more

Came to Delaneys today and they had the games on with sound. Chicken fried chicken was hot and crispy. They have so many tv's and was a great atmosphere for football. Service was great and bartenders and servers were quick and everything came out hot and fresh. Perfect for football season. read more

Service was extremely slow both times we went about six months apart. It was about 130 that we were having lunch and there was one large table of like tennis ladies that were finishing up and us and maybe two more tables we couldn't get the lady to come to us to get our drink order besides water we waited on tea Then it took her a long time to come back to take our food order and we both got salads. My friend salad was drenched and the salad dressing some kind of raspberry vinaigrette and basically couldn't finish it. Mine was some kind of chicken pasta salad. It was average. We couldn't get her to refill our tea's let along try to get one to go. read more

We came here last night to play pool, and had a great time! Pool tables were $1 which is cheaper than anywhere in the area. Bartenders were awesome! I highly recommend the fish and chips. We will definitely go back! Loved the Irish bar vibes! read more
