    Great , friendly bartenders. The New England clam chowder is the best I've ever had and that says a lot considering it's my favorite! Prices are fair and the ambiance is that of an old school Irish pub.

    Nachos with chicken

    Great, no frills Irish pub. We came here on a weekday evening and was able to get seated right away. There are a mix of tables and bar seats. $9 pints with several great Irish selections. Lots of great food options. The day we went, they had specials including beef stew and chicken curry. The service was prompt and great. I recommend!

    French onion soup
    Carridad R.

    Finnegan is decent for a pub. The staff moves so effortlessly. They don't hover over you. They're fast and efficient. The food is ok. It was a random drop in so I honestly wasn't expecting much. The French onion soup was decent in taste. The burger was ok I did like the blue cheese as a spread on the burger but for $19 it was as small as the sliders my friend order. The French Fries were flavorless and extremely oily to consume, so I didn't touch my fries. I wouldn't go out my way to come here but if I am in the area I might revisit it again. If you're looking for a pub that's homey this is definitely the spot for you.

    Finnegan's Wake seems like a place loved by locals. It's a solid choice for some food with a decent menu. What drew me in was the French onion soup which was pretty good! For dinner I ordered the beef sliders which were also good but the buns were a bit dry. Food was mid. The service was great and not overbearing. The ambiance was warm and christmasy. It didn't have that traditional alcoholy pub smell which made me feel comfortable dining there. All in all, I would recommend it if you're in the area looking for something easy but not something I would go out of my way for.

    Chicken Quesadillas

    Picked up quick dinner before concert at Czech Center. Fast and efficiency service. Got Shepard's pie and chicken quesadillas. What were we thinking getting quesadillas at an Irish pub! Stick with pub fare.

    Visiting Finnegan's Wake is like a visit to see old friends!

    Warm, friendly staff and fine pub fare. My aunt and I are regular clients and look forward to each visit. The pub's owner and manager, Fiona, is exceptionally gracious and competent. It is a well run establishment.

    Stopped in here on a whim for dinner and pretty quickly regretted it. The good came out QUICK which…read moreshould have been a sign of the quality. Probably the worst food I've had in manhattan to date. We got the shaved steak sandwich which was awful. The steak was somehow raw (we asked for medium well) and rubbery and overly chewy all at the same time. Also tasted like it was seasoned with a pinch of salt and nothing else. The caesar salad was abysmal. They make their own dressing which is usually a good thing but that was not the case here. The dressing tasted like anything but caesar. We told the waitress and asked for new entrees because we couldn't even take another bit of either. We chose chicken tenders and a burger because we figured you can't mess that up. Well.... The burger was also pretty terrible and the chicken tenders tasted of old oil. Now one would think if food isn't their strong suit, maybe they make up for it in their drinks. WRONG. Moscow Mule was not in a copper cup. Instead it was out of a plastic cup made to look like copper. It also tasted like flavored water. The only reason I'm giving 2 stars is because the waitresses gave us new food (also bad) and we're apologetic but it's not their fault. Don't come here for anything other than a beer since they can't mess that up

    I can only comment on the drinks as we didn't have food, but this is a great old bar with a really…read morenice atmosphere. You can feel how old the place is (in a good way) and it was nice and cozy to get in out of the heat and relax with a tasty drink. Service was good and I'd definitely come back here again!
