    Cozy bar near the train station. The service was excellent, and the bathrooms are as clean as one would expect in a great bar. Sports fans will appreciate the focus on baseball and basketball here.

    Bar with a lovely whiskey selection

    My friends love hanging here, and I decided to come by one night for trivia. It has a Brooklyn version of Cheers, with many regulars quipping up with inside jokes in unison. As comical as it was to watch, the first 15 minutes in the space took me back to the reviews of cold service. I was mostly ignored until my presence was verified by some regulars buying me rounds and authentic conversations. It seems like a cool whiskey club with drinks and a few items to nosh. Maybe a lot of folks come in for the bathroom or something. Go figure. Now. The rest of the experience was great. An amazing selection of whiskey, as well as other spirits ordinarily, is not in this area. The pizzas are pretty decent as well. I had the peppers and onion variety, and it was tasty. I'm sure I'll return as there are a few theme nights and great specials.

    Love the feel of this place when you walk in. I love a bar that has that real bar feeling. The wooden bar with wooden stool to match. Small but not stuffy small. I came in to watch the playoff game, great place to watch sports. I know places bigger than this with barely enough tvs. Fulton Ale House has a lot of tvs and big. I found myself in Brooklyn because I had a friend in town that was staying close by this spot. So we randomly picked it out and it turned out to be a great spot. The beer wow the list would make any beer lover blush. I tried a new IPA and all I remember is the first part of the name -Sci-Fi. This is a great balanced IPA ABV 7% which is perfect. All in all so happy I stumbled upon this place, even though it's 45 mins I will be back! Several times! Thanks Mike!

    First of All, the ambiance is great. The low lights and classic wood furnishings give the place a warm feel. There is also many TVs if you like sports and want to watch the Knicks game. ..lol ! It's not that big of a place, so come early. Besides that, the prices are decent and the customer service was great. I didn't ask for a menu but I guess they have limited options. The pizza tasted good, it wasn't overpowering. ENDLESS OPTIONS OF BEER AND DRINKS :-) Other than that, the music selection was pretty chill... quite diverse in a indie - pop- 70s funk kinda way. Nothing too millennial. Besides, the speakers blaring, you can hear your guest across the table. Anyways, it's a gem. Chill spots like this, on this side of Brooklyn, is rare. So, I hope this bar is here to stay.

    Came here for drinks and links on a Tuesday night after a long day of work. The bar wasn't crowded. I was able to enjoy beer at happy hour prices. This bar is remarkable chill, ideal for catching up with friends and going on a date. There are also several games for you to play as you sip slow. There's chess, darts, and other board games. The bartender was also friendly and attentive. Definitely a great sports bar and an Amazing addition to Bed Stuy.

    Unsafe. Unkind. Uninviting. Ole' Saint Nic looking barkeep put on his micro aggressing body of armor last night.. The story: we met at this locations with a handful of ladies to celebrate a birthday. The birthday girl isn't a big drinker so our requests were basic. Bottled beer, white, cocktails listed on the menu. The bar had about 5 other patrons present, but for some reason it took Santa forever to make our drinks, and then the alcohol served was made in a way that made the drinks undrinkable. No ice really for chilled beverages. No mixes for the mixed beverages. I literately could not drink what was ordered. I felt like I was served ever clear. This place is also located doors down from a wonderful French Fry spot (Spuds) from which we ordered and brought into the bar. After serving our drinks and closing our tabs, the bartender tells us no outside food... while we are eating and after we've set up at a full table. His explanation was that they serve food.. meanwhile.. there were no food menus in sight and no kitchen.. and no offerings of such. After telling the keep we'd finish our drinks at leave, he somehow had so much time to stand at the end of the bar where we were, and stare us down. I don't think he served anyone for a full 15 minutes or so because he was posturing like a peacock. At this point in time we weren't eating, our boxes of food were closed and bagged. He was literally trying to make our group feel uncomfortable and threatened. One member of our party politely asked him why he was postering so.. he confirmed indeed he'd been leaning on the bar in our direction for 15 minutes.. but that was due to his arthritis... The only thing that set us apart from the other patrons.. was our demographic. If you want a good drink. This isn't the place. I'd you want to feel safe and respected, I suggest any other place on the same block. Will never go back. Wish we had our money returned for the awful drinks and service. Will share this review with the local BBB and Chamber.

    This was one of the stops on our Bedstuy walking tour. It was a nice size bar with seating in the back. I was there on a Saturday and had a refreshing and tart gimlet. The bartender was super friendly and attentive. It's a chill vibe. They have TV's so you can watch sports. I focused on the drink menu but I thing they also serve food. If you're in the area; stop in, sit down, have a drink and relax.

    I don't get what's up with the negative comments. Idk if its the neighborhood but its weirdly hard to find a decent bar and this is probably one of my favorites that isn't too far from where I live. Great playlist, and awesome beer selection. It has everything a bar should be and there's nothing wrong with that. I was a little fairly surprised when I came in last night for a drink and there was a drag queen show. Loved it, great vibess and lots of love

    See all

    Can I go there to watch the football game?

    I walk by Paddy's almost every day, and I've come to see what it is -- and what it could be…read more Paddy's leans hard into the dive / old‑school pub aesthetic, which I'm fine with. The atmosphere is rugged, familiar, heavy with regulars who know each other. That can be comforting, but it also means new people feel a little on the outside looking in. Their beers are solid, the vibe is strong (sports, darts, classic pub banter), and it has the bones of a great local hangout. But there's a resistance to change or warmth toward newcomers, which makes it feel like a place "for the in crowd." If they worked on opening the door just a bit more for first‑timers (friendlier service, small gestures of welcome), Paddy's could be even better. As is, it's dependable and characterful -- just not always inclusive.

Between the welcoming and gracious owners, Mark and Teresa, and the on the ball bartenders, you can see why the patrons enjoy coming back here again and again. The beer selection has diversified over the years but it's the Guinness that's truly the stand out and probably the best pint I've had poured in Brooklyn. They have a total of seven TVs which is more than some locations twice the size and ample seating at the bar and tables. They show Premier League and will open up early for every Arsenal game but they will also show other sports like rugby, college and pro football, hockey, etc. While there is no kitchen, you're more than welcome to bring in your own food and they often host local food vendors for big weekend games. With winter now in full effect, the hot cauldron of cider is now up and running, so what are you waiting for? Head down to Paddy's and find your new favorite local.

The venue is pretty spacious they have a back dining area, a big bar when you enter and a full bar upstairs. There's a ton of televisions if you are watching sports as well. They have a pretty deep beer menu which I loved. The food menu is Irish influenced bar bites. We had the wings which were nice and crispy. The center of attention was the waffle fries nachos. You can't go wrong with a potato vehicle to fresh toppings. All and all great fun spot for sports and gatherings. Also this is a melting pot. Various ages, groups, backgrounds, saw a few families. All are welcome. One flaw is St. Patty it appeared that our waiter who was superb was the only one working so it was a bit of chase to close out.

    Solid Irish pub....i have only been here at lunch (I don't go out at night much if I'm not blowing…read moretrumpet at a gig or rehearsal). In general, I like the mellow / peaceful vibes of outer borough NYC Irish pubs at lunchtime. McMahon's did not disappoint. Solid buffalo chicken wings & good burger. I am also post fries (I will try one or two of yours, but I don't need an order of fries for myself.), so can't comment on the fries. They also make a mean Caesar salad. The Caesar & buffalo wings are pretty much my metric for all Irish pubs. McMahon's would def be in the upper 50th percentile. There are a bunch of negative reviews for this spot on here for when they are very busy, on Barclays Center game nights and / or weekends. I feel like, if you read between the lines, it's people coming in groups when it's busy acting entitled. The staff at lunch has been nothing but courteous, w/ excellent service. Also, very clean inside, & food was good quality / fresh ingredients. There are almost no Irish pubs in this area open for lunch anymore at all - thank goodness this is a good one!
