Great atmosphere and decor, great food, friendly service. We had potato pancakes with corned beef and cabbage served with applesauce and sour cream, sweet potato fries on the side, and the potato leek soup was great too. Just needed more potatoes in it. ;) Will be back to try bangers and mash and the Scottish eggs!. We took home the bread pudding, it is AMAZING. Has walnuts and a sweet syrup on it, served warm with ice cream. Please make your mouth happy and try it. The only real negative was there was debris on the floor in a few places but it was a bit late when we were there. read more

It's a nice place in downtown Port Huron, but like much of the town, needs updating. The food is good, middle of the menu fare, and prices are reasonable (for 2025)...there's entertainment on various days of the week, too. Beer selection is better than you'd expect as well. Service is very good: at the bar or a table or booth, you won't be forced to wave a server over...that's a big plus for me. read more

Every town should have an Irish pub, and this town is no different. Lynch's Irish Tavern is exactly what I was looking for, and during Restaurant Week. We arrived during happy hour, and I was interested in the menu to see what kinds of appetizers to order, alone with the drinks we started as well before the hour slipped away. I had a frozen strawberry margarita, and it was spot on. Unbeatable price ! Our server did a spectacular job explaining the specials. I was pleased with the cheese sticks and delicious jalapeño poppers; they were just enough food and drink to taste and experience the tavern. The booth we sat in was beautifully designed, and dark vintage atmosphere reminded me of the iconic Cheers in Boston lol Additionally, Keno and other fun games kept us entertained. I can't wait to try more of the menu next time, along with more local favorites. The only con I had, was no clear reception on my phone, making it harder to check in through Yelp- ( I didn't ask if there was a WiFi) - read more

Service and atmosphere are great. The food... Now here's the problem. The Steak and Cheese Sandwich was very dry, and didn't have much flavor. The Shepard's Pie was simply... awful. It's supposed to be a thin layer of crispy mashed potatoes over a thick layer of lamb, gravy, peas, carrots and onions. But this? It was nothing but an oval ramekin of mashed potatoes with a few bits of filling mixed in, with a drizzle of gravy sprinkled on top. Very bland, no flavor at all. I paid $22 for this slop. Any Irish tavern that calls this "Shepard's Pie" should be ashamed of themselves. I left hungry. read more

Scorch egg was layered in breading and hard and over cooked. The sausage adds egg tasted good with the sauce. The egg rolls were very tasty as expected. Place was empty at 7:30 on a weekend night. Service was average. The place could have used a sweep on the floors. read more

Had the corned beef and cabbage Sliced real thin very dry Seemed like it was sandwich meat Had no taste I wouldn't order it again read more

Tried to go on two separate days and the kitchen is always closed early sucks cause I really wanted to try their food. Hopefully they get more people in there to be open at 6pm read more

No problem with bar staff - she was great ( 10/9/24) Ordered to go: Stoudt onion soup was just bad. Sour and taste like card board and pickle juice with cheese on top Hoping for a great shepards pie It was large but there was virtually no meat. Mistake or not; it was not worth the price Sorry. If it's even mediocre I would never even post .., but this is the first bad review I've ever given read more

The food was delicious Corn beef sandwich was good . Service was also good . It's a big space nice for large groups

What an awesome spot. Great food. Great service... tf is going on with that fireplace tho? Special needs project? read more

This is the place to be if you want to get down and party. It's very spacious and they have great food and cocktails. Whenever I'm in town to visit we almost always come here to have a good time. The service is top tier! read more

Food was delicious. Service was delightful. Dining room and restrooms were spotless!! The 3 in our party all got different things. My Brother had a ribeye with loaded baked potato, mac and cheese, and a salad. It didn't look like he put a dent in it, but he was stuffed (and enjoyed the leftovers later!). The ribeye was cooked just the way he liked it, and was a very generous portion! My husband had the Black and Tan burger with waffle fries. Messy, but delicious. He really enjoyed it. I had the reuben with fresh chips. My husband quickly regretted his burger after trying to corned beef! He loved his burger, but the corned beef was so tender and full of flavor. Nice rye bread too. It was paper thin. It held really good and wasn't dripping with sauce. The fresh chips were great! One of the best reubens I've ever had. It had a good portion of meat, but it was not too much that it was falling out. The atmosphere was great! Our server was on top of everything, and our food came out pretty quick and was all piping hot! read more

We stopped for a late dinner after arriving in town and what a treat! The place wasn't busy at all, which normally isn't a great omen but the food was amazing. Fried pickles were crunchy and piping hot. My husband had a burger and waffle fries that he verbalized multiple times was "amazing." I had the fish and chips with a side of mac and cheese. That mac and cheese was easily the best I've ever had at a restaurant. Not to mention our server was quick, attentive, and so sweet. Drinks were never empty and she was by often to check on us. The place has a great ambiance. 90's music playing and cool decor! read more

Please read full explanation: The feel of this place is just marvelous. It really feels like a pub. It's spacious and I adore the atmosphere here. They have an interesting menu that makes genuine attempts to be Irish themed. They have a full list of specialty drinks and craft beers for the millennials among you. I'll always be game to go here with any friend or family member. However what keeps it from a five star rating is that there really isn't a dish here that stays in my mind after I leave. I like everything but I'm just not eternally moved by any one dish. Well maybe the Irish nachos. But don't hold back. They have great night events and atmosphere for a night out with friends read more

Place is very big and not very busy, service was fast and attentive, the stout onion soup was delicious and hit the spot, my companion ordered the Reuben egg rolls and he said they were very good, I had the Rueben sandwich was cooked very well and had plenty of corned beef, my companion ordered the fish and chips and according to him the fish was cooked to perfection. Will recommend for a casual dinner or lunch read more

Atmosphere 5 Service is inconsistent. (3) I have had awesome service at lunch time! Awesome beer selection. Hopslam and final absolution on tap during the right time of year! Love the Irish nachos. Husband likes the burger with the pretzel bun! read more

This place can be hit or miss but when Jesse is behind the bar is the best experience! A+ customer service and he makes the best drinks!!

If you are passing through as we were or a local you need to visit this spot. Nice location with plenty of parking in the back. Irish pub atmosphere. Good service supplied by a pleasant female server. We had the Irish Nachos and Irish Pub Sandwich. Both were prepared in a fashion we had not experienced. We recommend both items. Friendly staff and good selection of tap beers. read more

First let me say the place is very nice - clean and modern, and the service was good. But the food was lacking. Most of us ordered the Reubens and they are served on thick marble bread. Ours were served with all the meat clumped in the center of the sandwich leaving no meat at the edges. If they are going to kinda skimp on the meat, I'd rather see it served on thinner bread. We did have someone order the corned beef dinner with potato pancakes which was a disappointment. The beef was tough and our server told us they ran out of cabbage (5pm on a Saturday). He did offer some items to replace and coleslaw was chosen and it was very good. The potato pancakes just looked like and tasted like shredded breakfast potatoes formed into a circle. Did not taste like real potato pancakes or latkes. Not a terrible dining experience but we probably won't be back. read more

Very good place. Good service that likes to have conversations and all the customers that day was very out going. My girl friend had the Cajun pasta that was unbelievable good. I had a burger that was very good. Would recommend for family dinners or a place just to enjoy the bar. read more

What a pleasant surprise! Around this area, Irish pub generally means bar food and not much different atmosphere. Not the case here! Irish draught beers and a good amount of inspired food offerings fill the menu. The food is delicious too! Best fried pickle app I've ever had. We had just stopped in for a light bite before grocery shopping, but I'm excited to return for a full meal. My husband loved his Rueben on thick marbled bread, and the Irish Stout onion soup was tasty. Great service and loved looking around at the vintage feel to the room. Give it a try! read more

Refused to sit me in one of 3 available booths. Said I had to take a table. As a single, senior citizen I do not feel comfortable sitting in the open. The hostess said to sit wherever I choose. But after waiting in a booth for 15 minutes, one of the staff finally came over to bus the booth. She told me I could not sit there, I had to sit at a table. There were 3 tables for 4-6. If it was space what is the difference? I politely left and went elsewhere. I won't be back. And I won't return with friends or family either. Has anyone ever heard of a rule "a single person can not sit alone in a booth"? That is what staff person told me. read more

I have eaten here once before it was ok soup was good salad was average I went again and ordered the pasta dish I love pasta this had to be the worst pasta dish I had ever eaten my daughter got the same the pasta was mush the chicken on it was cold so it was not just cooked the sauce had no flavor vegetables in it were from a frozen state (I am in food service) so I can tell if this cook was on chopped he/she would of been chopped read more

My wife and I are very impressed with Lynches food! Fresh made poppers filled with a cheese spread and gently deep fried leaving the pepper firm! Their Reuben is the best in the area, thinly sliced so you can enjoy with cheese &croit! The chef can char my burger and the shrimp skewers outrun any seafood joint !To that, they are consistent and staffed with people that care. Hats off to them! read more

This was my husband and I's first time ever eating at the tavern and it was DELICIOUS! Before our entrees we had the friend pickles and the stout onion soup, both incredible. I got the potato pancake dinner with corned beef and cabbage. The corned beef was probably the best I've ever had, so tender and flavorful. The cabbage was fresh and the pancakes were amazing. My husband got the pub sandwich which was equally delicious! We also got in dessert with the chocolate lava cake and even though I was stuffed and thought I'd only have a couple of bites, we gobbled it up, it was so amazing! Our waitress was so friendly and checked in frequently on us for refills. The food came out in great time. All around an awesome place that we will eat at again many more times to come! read more

The Shepherd's Pie is tasty, and is served up in large portions. Hubs ordered the Guinness shrimp and sweet potato fries, and was very pleased with his meal. I found the service to be friendly and relatively fast, and the restrooms spacious and well kept. Thanks, Yelp, for helping me find this Port Huron gem. (We won't be back in the area anytime soon, no, but we certainly enjoyed Lynch's while there.) read more

What a beautiful atmosphere and re-model job. There was quite a crowd for a one o'clock Wednesday lunch downtown. They were busy and it took a while for a waitress to notice us, but when she did she was very friendly and apolegetic. The music was too loud for lunch chit chat with my mom and our friend. We had to holler a bit to hear each other. I understand loud music for the night time bar crowd, but appreciate a quieter level for lunch. I hope they will adjust that. I ordered the Corned Beef and Cabbage and a cup of the Potato-Leek Soup. The soup arrived in a coffee mug and was very hot and tasty. The broth was easy to sip from the mug after the potato slices were gone. It warmed me up. My meal arrived with thinly sliced corned beef on top of cabbage pieces. It came with sliced carrots on the side... MASSIVE sliced carrots on the side. I don't know if they always serve them like these... but these carrots were BIG. They were sweet and cooked just right. I enjoyed the carrots most of all actually. The Corned Beef and Cabbage was kind of bland. Not much seasoning at all. I'm probably just partial to my own way of cooking it. Low and slow in the oven with plenty of spices. If I decide to head back for more soup and carrots someday, I'll probably try something else to go with them. read more

Guys, I'm sorry, but the food here has gone steadily downhill over the last few years. I do give it the second star for one reason - "the late night" menu. That is worth eating off of - particularly if you've been drinking - and the Tullamore Dew wings are the best thing on that. read more

Was a great stop after a long days ride. The jalapeño poppers were out of this world!!! They were a meal by themselves. The fish and chips was very tasty- good size portion. They only get 3 stars because the wait for our food was ridiculously looooonnngggg!!! Very disappointed in how long it took to get our meals. read more

Great atmosphere but food was not great. In fact the fish for the fish and chips was bad. Took a bite and smelled strong ammonia. Told the server and chef said the fish was fine but offered me something else. It was not fine. Never had fish that smelled that bad. Made me question health standards and food prep. Eat at your own risk. read more

Awesome! The atmosphere is really great. The service was quick and very polite. We each got a Reuben with the Irish stock stout (French onion) - really good, a little bland but I'd eat it again. The Reuben's were amazing! The corned beef is peppered, a little tough but I'd get it again (and again). The Mac and cheese side was awesome as well. Will definitely come here again. read more

While in the area coincidentally on St. Patrick's Day, we stopped here for dinner so I could have an excuse to drink tons of green beer. It was early in the evening; it wasn't busy but was filling up fast. Our server was very prompt, friendly, was quick to explain menu items, and deliver beer. We both ordered the chicken wing meal, which came with soup (for her), salad (for me), fries, and at least 10 wings each. The meal was substandard. I was very hungry so ignored the fact that the wings were extremely dry and small. The meal wasn't very filling at all, but it was priced pretty good. Our bill was $40, and we were in and out in about an hour. We observed some other patrons eating and wished we had ordered what they did since our meal really wasn't that good. The festive holiday atmosphere was cool though. When I come back to the area for the usual sightseeing and drinking, I'll be glad to give this place another try. read more

I came here two Saturdays ago with a group of four other people. We sat at a booth on the main floor area. They had someone playing live music toward the front of the restaurant. However, most people had their eyes glued to the TVs - Valverde had just blown a save (shocking) and it was a tie game in the 9th. We sat there for about 10 minutes. We weren't even addressed by a waitress. There were other waitresses working on other tables right next to us. I don't know if they thought the other person had us or what, but no one ever came over. We left before the game was even over. We'd planned on ordering drinks and food (one of our friends had just gotten off his shift and was starving, and the rest of us were going to get some appetizers) but left hungry and thirsty. I'd like to try and give this place a rating, but this is twice now that I've been completely unable to because I have absolutely nothing to go on...except the service, which is nonexistent. read more

After three visits over a span of 2 years, it's time for a review. I have only ever drank here and here's my take on this "Irish tavern" My 1st visit was the best b/c we (party of 4) sat at the bar and the bartender seemed to have a good handle of the crowd- I enjoyed my glass of wine Visit # 2 my friend and I went for wine and would have loved to have two glasses but the waiter never came back to ask if we were doing okay or wanted anything else- just showed up w/ the bill Visit # 3 was 2/9/14 around 7- the server had absolutely no personality and she was clearly not suited to be dealing w/ the public that evening. She was snippy whenever my boyfriend tried to joke w/ her and didn't smile- not even once- too bad her sour attitude affected her tip. Are people really that stupid to think that you can treat customers (who tip nicely) crappy and expect a good tip? The only redeeming qualities were that my boyfriend ordered the Irish nachos and liked them, my glass of wine was good and the others in the party liked their beers. I'm big on customer service and it is non existent here. Have no desire to return. I've been to Ireland- Lynch's is nowhere near an Irish tavern- nope, not even close read more

This is a pub I typically only go to when certain friends want to go out to eat downtown and I get outvoted. It's not that the food is bad. It's ok. Ok burger, ok rueben , ok appetizers, ok staffing. Nothing special. It's the pretentious beer snobs that carry on about their astute knowledge of craft beers as they are practically falling over drunk at the bar that annoy the crap out of me. And one of the older bartenders seemed like he was drunk as well last time I was in. The vendor that comes in for some of the beers is actually pretty reasonable to speak with. I know some of the past staff and the owner is unkind and seemingly only interested in our money. I don't drink as much (a beer or two now and then) so it is not my favorite hangout. And it is loud in there. But I do like the look inside. If anything, it has a real Irish pub feel to it and is pretty spacious. But I am not going to a pub just for internal aesthetics. Connor Street Pub, though several miles outside downtown, has been more enjoyable for me in both food quality and service. Lynch's tries to be different but is just another downtown yuppy hangout that underwhelms. read more

Went here for dinner Wednesday night. First impression is very neat decor. At first the waitress said they didn't have a gluten free menu. Then my wife said on yelp it says you do, so she said she would ask the " chef". When she came back she had an actual written list of what we could get that would be gluten free. NOW that didn't seem to hard did it!!! What a novel IDEA!!! So I got a Black and Tan burger. It has bacon, a jalapeño , breaded onion chips and a house BBQ sauce made with Guinness. It was very good. I also had shoe string fries they too were very good. She had Seared Salmon, colcannon and coleslaw. All were good. To drink I had a Tito's and soda, she had a Long Island. Both were good. It's a very Irish oriented bar/Restaurant. I wanted to get some kinda Irish drink but I chickened out. The experience was good. I would not hesitate to go back again. read more

This has to be thee best place I have ever eatin' or had desert at!

If you go..you have to try the bread pudding...A huge mound of deliciousness topped with real vanilla ice cream and caramel! YUMMILICIOUS! So yes...a five star all the way...it is my favorite place to eat in St. Clair County! :0) read more

I went there years ago when they first opened and I loved it. It'd visit at least once a month, food and service were fantastic. It's been slowly going downhill with first the food becoming very hit or miss and then the service started to slip. Their cooks and bartenders have moved on. Whoever made the original menu and some of the better ideas on the drink menu, either moved on or ran out of ideas. Food is really bad now. Everything I order has something off about it. The time before last I was solicited by ladies of the night out front. Even after I asked them to remove them. Tonight I asked for a bloody mary, which was ghastly. I went up to the "bartender" to get a different drink. He proceeded to take a drink of it(health code violation) and told me it tasted like a bloody Mary to him and said he made it and said if I wanted a different drink to take it up with my server. Wow!. Things got heated from there and eventually I went back to my table, All the while this douchebag had a grin on his face. Trying to salvage a good night from that horrible "bartender/douchebag" we proceeded to eat our food and knowing they were in the wrong left me alone, again food was bad. Then I looked up to see him talking crap to his co workers AND the owner! The owner walked by and I made a comment and they had me removed. The "security" they had the whole time saw all of this and apologized profusely and proceeded to tell me that the bartender in question has caused issues like this in past all the while even during my removal. First time I've ever been removed from a bar in my 32 years on this earth. The whole while threatening to call the cops even though they were in the wrong. What a joke. If I ever see that pussy behind the bar he better have more than a grin. Garbage! Pure shit! read more
