Plenty of free parking, but it fills-up, as the Silver Fox bar is neighbor. A glass of Smithwick's draught beer, and a snack from the excellent menu brought me here, as well as the joyous & vibrant crowd. A live Irish band was setting up on the stage, but I had other things scheduled for my Saturday night. For now, college football was on the bigscreen above me, staff was busy with all seats along the bar taken, and I looked thru the amazing food menu of Irish & UK style dishes, with some San Patricio dishes from Mexico! The San Patricio Brigade of the Army of Mexico in 1846 were Irish conscripts that deserted the US Army invasion into Mexico due to Protestant American officers not allowing the Irish troops to attend Mass in the Mexican cathedrals. Then, most of the Irish "deserted", to defend Mexico from this invasion dreamed-up by U.S. President Polk to create more new States for Dixie to expand (Polk was a slave holder). The Irish ran the line of cannons for Mexico to win one battle, but Mexico was running low on bullets & supplies by now, and doomed for a loss. (If the Irish had just waited 2 more weeks, it would have been over with). Alas, the US Army quickly executed 30 of the Irish San Patricios in a mass hanging, while a group were hot-branded a letter "D" on their faces for "Deserter". (If seen again in USA, anyone could hang them) However, an untold amount escaped into the hills of Mexico, and married into the families. The Saint Patrick's Brigrade has a monument in Mexico. And USA gained the territory that Polk wanted, while a junior Congressman named Lincoln shook his head, yet had plans of his own. Meanwhile, Mexico would have another revolution in 1910, and a young Irish Mexican boy would enter USA with his family to end up in Los Angeles where young Anthony Quinn became a promising young architect, married a 35-year old woman who arranged acting lessons for him, giving the movie industry a macho man star. Come over to Gillespie's for more stories & cold pints! And good food, and live music!

Since we were really stopping in for drinks and apps we did not get to experience a lot of the menu. The fish and chips is something I will definitely try next time. We had the app sampler, cup of soup and a few drinks. Wife loved her blackberry lemon drop house drink. The app sampler really surprised us in a good way. The fried cheese and corned beef/reuben egg rolls were out of this world. The potato skins and jalapeño poppers were good too but as mentioned the other two items were on a higher level of greatness.

The exterior of the business is a bit unassuming. Once you step inside, the space is cozy and casual. It is a great place to hang and enjoy a beverage with the company of friends. They have an outdoor space in the back. I understand they often have live music and I could see this to be a great place to enjoy a nice day/night outside with some tunes. I had the chance to speak with a few of the owners as they were doing the serving. They were friendly and helpful as I determined my beverage. I enjoyed the Wild Card Honey Wheat. I liked the flavor without a real heavy aftertaste. While they may not serve food, they often have food trucks for people to enjoy. I look forward to returning!

Didn't really have a full meal so can't really give a full assessment. the burgers are around $16 and come with fries or tater tots. They looked good though.. I thought the menu was kind of pricey for bar food.. but I think that's the state of eating out these days. Got the cauliflower wings ($13) which come with 2 (?) sauces. but got it with the Boom Boom sauce (spicy mayo like). This really made the dish.. it was an ok portion, but not huge. Depending on who is playing, it can get pretty busy. Thought the servers did well attending to everybody. There seems to be quite a few people who hang out for the dart boards, pool tables, drinks on a weekend night.

I literally took napkins and tried to get it out. The cheese sticks were good and so were the taetor tots. Our sever was nice and allowed us to switch seats. Unfortunately it stormed that day and they have satellite so the game went out after paying our money ($5) to watch the fight. It's nothing special but it'll hold a large party if you want to go watch the fight.
