    Three floyds vodka splash 9% alchohol and tasty!

    I am from Arizona and just stopped in here to check it out. One of the few bars that still allow smoking indoors. They carry a more than decent selection of seltzers and beers to please any pallet. It's a cool divey bar. Plenty of tvs. Not sure why people are giving bad reviews, they must not have looked this place up before they went.

    Hello Yelp Fam. Not a complainer. Nor a sugar coater. Called I'm advance with the understanding that the venue closes Doors at 2A EST No worries I am from NOLA. So being unfriendly is foreign to me. Maybe " I am not the crowd that they cater to."

    Smoking allowed inside. Won't be back. Shame because the karaoke night was high energy and lots of fun.

    I like to visit Murphys around St Patrick's day. They typically have something special going on…read more Sunday was a bit more tame than Saturday. In the speakeasy, They had a tattoo artist doing shamrocks for people They had their special Irish menu this weekend. The dishes people had around me looked amazing. Strong recommendation on Irish burger from person next to me. While I looked at the menu, I had my first green beer! Monica and Nick were bartending, both are exceptional. I finally went with the corned beef and Swiss on rye. It had an huge helping of corned beef, I could only eat half the sandwich. The corned beef was moist, no condiments needed. Perfect meal.

    If I could provide negative stars I would…read more We typically enjoy local food and never have had issues with ordering carry out locally until we came across both Murphy's pub house and craft house. There have been multiple times over the course of the last several months that we've had ordering issues with both for carry out, as well as a horrible experience at the craft house. Most recently, we've tried ordering carry out from the pub house and have not been successful any time. We understand the kitchen closes an hour before the restaurant closes and have ordered well before this time frame. It seems like the online ordering may shut down 3 hours before the kitchen closes, which is what we experienced tonight. The cherry on top was calling in to place our carry out order at 915pm (kitchen closes at 11pm tonight) - someone answered (and we were like "yay!") but then were put on hold, waited for 15 min and tried to call back for the next hour and 15 min and no one answered no matter what option we selected. So what I've been able to deduce from these multiple experiences is Murphy's doesn't like carry out traffic and isn't willing to take money from local fans. It's one thing if your website says "ordering stops at 7pm" - we'd order prior to 7pm. But when it says "kitchen closes 1 hour before closing" and nothing else about carry out, no warning while preparing our order that we wouldn't be able to place the order (like other local establishments provide) or employees who could answer the phone and easily say what the actual rules are - like "I know it says online the kitchen closes 1 hour before closing but we actually stop taking carryout orders 3 hours before the kitchen closes" - then we'd be informed and be able to operate in a manner where we understand what the boundaries are. I've had business dealings with this business and it's not surprising they are as or more disorganized on the customer side as they are on the actual business side. I reached out to the owner tonight and received no response. I hope this review helps take business away from Murphy's pub house. Since we aren't allowed to give them our business, maybe no one should.

    Stopped in for lunch. Downtown Fortville. It never looks like there is a lot of parking…read moredowntown, but I've always been able to find a spot fairly close to my destination. I love the small town feel!! The restaurant vibe reflects the town. Everyone is very welcoming. I didn't catch bartenders name, but she was very friendly to everyone at her bar. She told us her favorites on the menu. I appreciated her knowledge about the restaurant and the menu. The bar area seemed a little dark, but that actually enhanced the experience of an old bar. We only sat in the bar area, I believe there is additional seating in another room, but I didn't look. I opted for a grilled tenderloin and a cup of beer cheddar jalapeño cheese soup. The sandwich's are Ala carte. The sandwich was bigger than I expected, that would have been enough for lunch. The trick with grilled tenderloin is that many times it is over cooked, so it is dry. This was cooked to perfection; cooked but still moist. The sandwich, with the "garden" was awesome. Now to the soup. I think she said they use wee Mac as the beer. The jalapeño was puréed. There was crispy bacon crumbled on top; I did not care for the bacon. The soup was odd to me as I was eating it. Because of the texture, it reminded me of corn chowder. There was a little spice/flavor from the jalapeño. What was odd to me, was it didn't wow me like I thought it would, but I kept eating it. So in the end, I think I really liked it bc I ate all of it!!! The menu is not large, but has a good variety for its size. The desserts were impressive, I just didn't have room for it. I could easily become a regular there!!

    Always an amazing place to spend a night out. The food is incredible, service is great and the…read moreatmosphere is a perfect blend of laid back yet sophisticated. The perfect spot for parents night out. You have to try the bone marrow fries!
