Cristo
Ryan O.

Our party has never been here before, and we showed up and we were greeted with friendly faces. Breakfast menu was outstanding and all three people in our group or the Cristo. When it came out, they all looked magnificent and there is a blueberry habanero sauce jam that goes on top and it was not super spicy, but had great flavor. I would easily recommend again and again just based off their menu for breakfast.

Tot-Chos with potato wedges and seasonal crisp
Sean H.

Stopped by here for a quick dessert but I couldn't resist ordering the totchos. I subbed it with potato wedges instead and it tasted absolutely amazing. The dessert we ordered was a bit too sweet but the ice cream actually helped balance it out. The ambiance is nice. Chill and warm. Parking was plentiful. Service was exceptional. Staff was very friendly and checked on us often as well as offering us recommendations. They did forget about us when we asked for the check but immediately apologized and remembered as I approached the bar.

Doyle's is always a good time. Great neighborhood bar. They always have fast service and clean beer lines. Can't wait to make it back!

Cocktail menu
Molly B.

Doyle's is my new favorite spot! First of all, the service truly stands out to me. Every server and bartender is SO kind. They are also super dog friendly. They even gave our doggies water. The drinks are fantastic! I wouldn't expect a pub like this to have such amazing cocktails. They rotate the menu frequently and I haven't had a cocktail I didn't like! I can't wait to come back to try more food items.

Good times and service cheers Open early and has side parking and patio on a nice day

Fetching, isn't it?
Teresa M.

One of the nifty things about Doyle's is that they are open 365. Yes, this includes Christmas. There are very few places that are open so it's nice knowing there's a place to go if you just want to hang out. Food, for the most part, has been quite consistent. It comes out hot and it's pretty good. Nothing to write home about, but it's perfectly fine pub food. There are a small handful of vegetarian items, which is more than I'd expect from an Irish pub. The omelet that I had most recently had way, way too much butter for my taste, but that's what happens at restaurants. Service is really hit or miss depending on who's working. I've only been here a handful of times thus far, but I'm starting to recognize the good employees and the bad/slow ones. I like several of their hot drinks, but if I see one person in particular I know it's going to be luke warm by the time I get it so I don't order those when she's bartending. Overall it's a simple concept: you order at the counter when you're ready and then they'll bring things out to you. Including drink refills, just flag someone down when they walk past and it's good. Things can get quite loud when there's a game going, so keep that in mind if you're trying to chat with your table. Overall though Doyle's has a great vibe and I can enjoy my time here.

Bourbon meatloaf
Paul R.

I Always enjoy Doyle's. The staff has always been friendly, it's a honey hole for specialty bottles of your favorite bourbon, whiskey, etc. The food is absolutely delicious 8 times out of ten. For the money I don't think anywhere downtown surpasses it. I highly recommend giving it a try. Their Scottish eggs, juicy good bits, and soups are my favorite.

Marbled Rye Toast (Dry)
Sara S.

I came here for our brunch club with some friends. It was a pretty good breakfast and the staff was very friendly and helpful, they even leaned over the bar to take our order at a table and didn't make us walk up to the order-taking spot. We came during a match, so it was VERY loud. I'm not faulting the restaurant for it; it's obviously characteristic of a pub. It was our fault for choosing this spot for a women's brunch outing. But we hung in there! I asked the server if they had anything vegan, and he said no, nothing as is. So I ordered the veggie scramble without eggs or cheese and a side of dry rye. It was pretty tasty. My friends also enjoyed their meals (Doyle's scramble and sausage biscuit buddies).

Map from bar crawl showing their are a witting participant in the scam
Bob P.

This bar is a willing participant in a scam perpetuated by eventbrite and bar crawl.com. They allowed scammers to use their venue to check in for a fake "bar crawl". They will allow these scammers to use their building to steal from you. Avoid avoid avoid. They did not honor the drink tickets from the scam. When we asked the bartender about the bar crawl, he was rude, snarky, dismissive - should have been a red flag that they were enabling stealing and scams.

Food was good--I had Mac-n-cheese with brisket and it was good! Comfort food all around. A little salty but I'd order again.

Come for a book club meeting, they let us use the middle room area…read more Service was great. Nick handled this woman in our group like a champ! She can't have gluten. She ordered a salad. I'm 99% sure it didn't have croutons buried in the middle, but she freaked out that her fork hit something crunchy and hard. Was most likely bacon but whatever. (The bacon was cooked too crispy perfection visually). She lost it. He didn't argue and had her another one made with the bacon on the side. Kuddos to him. While I fully sympathize with her concerns with gluten, she didn't fish out an actual crouton to show. The 3 cheese burger is absolutely a must! Personally I recommend salt and vinegar chips with it... Great mocktail options and they were happy to make anything off menu for me! Parking is tough but 100000% recommend checking this place out.

There are a few established taverns in Austin, Billy's and the Draught House, but I have to say…read moreParkway Tavern in Tacoma is hands down the most the amazing scenario. Nestled is an old neighborhood, surrounded by huge trees and beautiful flowers, has an ambiance that surpasses anything I have ever seen. It's a neighborhood bar, full service, with great beers on tap and great drinks. I spent two weeks in Tacoma with my sister, and we visited almost everyday. I met Jessie and Camille amongst sweet people. So very friendly. Their food options were special. I loved their simple hamburger and adored the dill pickle dip, I went home that night and found a similar recipe and made it for a party at my niece's. If you ever get up there, please find the time to stop by. I swear you won't regret it. This bar was established in 1935!!

The atmosphere is kind of dive bar, but with really great food and cocktails. The tots, which are…read moremore of a croquette, are always amazing. We've also enjoyed the brussells sprouts. On our most recent visit we tried the nachos, and they were honestly the best nachos I've ever had. The cheese sauce is amazing- not some gross canned stuff. The chicken is perfectly seasoned, and the ingredients are layered throughout so you're not stuck with a bunch of plain chips. It feels silly to be gushing about nachos, but they are next level. It's not cheap, but well worth it!

Dirty Oscar's Annex - Disappointing Experience on 6th Ave…read more We came in as a group of seven, and unfortunately the experience went downhill quickly. First, the service was poor and disorganized. One of my friends arrived early and ordered her drink, but it didn't arrive until after I had already received mine -- even after she asked twice. We also had to wait far too long for basic things like napkins and forks because we weren't given enough for everyone. The most frustrating part, however, was the automatic gratuity. At no point were we informed -- verbally or on the menu -- that parties of 6 or more are charged an automatic 20% gratuity. We only discovered it by carefully reviewing our checks. And to make matters worse, the so-called "20%" was not actually 20%. It came out to 24.1%. When we questioned it, the person who said she was the manager claimed "the computer does it automatically." We are a table full of teachers -- and the math was definitely not mathing. We understand and respect gratuity for large parties, especially when the service is great or when it's clearly communicated. But charging more than the stated percentage crosses from poor service into a billing integrity issue. To add to the frustration, there is also a credit card processing fee, which again was not clearly disclosed on the menu and only appeared at the bottom of the receipt. This absolutely should be visibly posted before ordering. They did offer to refund some of the charges, but we declined because it would have taken additional time and we had an event to get to -- and more importantly, it doesn't resolve the core issue of lack of transparency. She also gave each of us a $10 gift card, but again, that doesn't resolve the issue. And honestly, what good is a gift card if we don't plan on returning because of such an awful experience? Overall, this was a very disappointing visit, and not one we would recommend based on service and transparency alone.
