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.

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!

If you want water, there's a giant jug of it on the counter. Help yourself to some plastic cups. Super loud ambiance, due to bar TVs and people talking really loudly. In such open space, sound carries. Prepare to talk really loudly and strain to hear your conversation partners. The background music was nice--all the classy rock, pop, and modern hits bringing you nostalgia from the better days. A few outdoor tables available, if you'd like to people watch in good weather. Service is fast, staff are very efficient. We got $20 ribs special and $18 chicken sandwich panini. I was surprised that both were decent. Fries were not too salty nor greasy and not heavy at all (surprise). Ribs were tender and fell off the bone easily. They were served in sweet BBQ sauce. Instead of fries, I got salad--which was just a few lettuce leaves from a pre sold supermarket salad bag, so be warned. Chicken panini sandwich was the unanticipated standout of our meal--massive chicken breasts that were tender and well grilled were nestled between tasty toppings. Overall, this was very filling (can be shared by two) and satisfying. Very cheese and saucy, which I also appreciated, as I can't stand bland food.

As someone who has come to this bar regularly to watch Knicks playoff games, I can confidently say…read moreI will never return after what happened during the NBA Finals last night. What this bar pulled was completely unacceptable. They were openly reserving seats at the bar for certain people while telling everyone else they were unavailable. There was no advertised reservation policy, no advance notice, and no opportunity offered to regular customers. Apparently, the only way to get a seat is to know the owner, know the bartenders, or be part of the inner circle. What made it even worse was that my group had been sitting at the bar, ordering food and drinks starting around 7:30 PM, only to be forced out of our seats at 7:45 PM. The reservation signs on those seats clearly stated they were reserved for 8:15 PM. We were paying customers actively spending money, yet we were removed 30 minutes before the supposed reservation time. That is absolutely egregious behavior. I've worked in sports bars and have owned sports bars in New York City. In all my years in the business, I have never heard of reserving seats directly at the bar--especially during a major sporting event. It goes against everything that makes a sports bar successful. Bar seats have always been first-come, first-served. That's Sports Bar 101. I've spent plenty of money here over the years because it was always a great place to watch big games: good atmosphere, sound on the TVs, and a fun crowd. Unfortunately, last night proved that customer loyalty means absolutely nothing. Regular patrons were treated like second-class citizens while preferred customers received special treatment. For a bar that markets itself as a neighborhood sports destination, this was incredibly disappointing, unprofessional, and frankly insulting. If you're planning to watch a major game here, don't assume you'll be treated fairly. Unless you're friends with the right people, don't expect the same experience as everyone else. There are plenty of other sports bars in Brooklyn that understand how to treat customers. After last night, I'll be spending my money there instead. I won't be back, and I certainly won't be recommending this place to anyone. Let's Go Knicks

Decent drinks and ambience for a seemingly non-pretentious bar, unfortunately the lack of third spaces in NYC creates a culture of old-time-ry spiritual curmudgeons and ingroup outgroup dynamics among regulars not worth being around if you want to have fun. May be if you're Irish and/or older Gen Xer, you may have a slightly better experience. Despite its placement and weekly karaoke catering to a younger demographic, it's still a crotchety old-man bar at heart though perhaps not really malicious, just annoying and set in its ways...
