We watched the Super Bowl here during our travels, and the energy here was absolutely ELECTRIC…read more We got there a bit after kickoff and the place was absolutely packed, but we found a spot to post up near their patio doors so we could see the indoor TVs and still have outdoor airflow. The vibes are really fun in here - dark and moody with tons of comfy seating, mostly leather chairs and cozy sofas that make posting up for games fun. The crowd here was a BLAST - folks wearing all kinds of American football jerseys and going wild at each touchdown. Drink prices were reasonable and I loved that they carried the boozy lemonade we found elsewhere and enjoyed. Maybe it was just the Super Bowl energy, but we really liked the ambiance for sports games here!

Look forward to getting a Guinness and some food. Guinness was so so (being from Ireland I am…read morespoiled) but what turned me of this place was the service. Indeed I ended up having a drink and leaving. Waiter gave me menu and then disappeared. Decided that if they are not interested in hiring good staff I am not interested in spending my $$. So can't comment on food but for an Irish pub leaves a lot to be desires. Music made me give it 2 stars. I was going with 1.

My partner and I ended up buying a bunch of items off the snack menu including the nachos, buffalo chicken wings, aranchi, and pork sliders. Each were very tasty and were a decent enough portion for 2 to share. The atmosphere was really relaxed and my friends and I enjoyed just chilling out in one of the booths. Unfortunately my friends order for mains got lost and we had to chase it up but the staff were so good about it and even gave them a free drink each whilst they waiting for it to cook. Great customer service.

But wait, it gets better - they also play music bingo on Tuesdays. Its the perfect way to stive off mid-week blues. The venue itself is your classic sports bar, its a bit grimey, but that's part of the atmosphere. Staff are cheery, and again - those burgers are to die for.
