A chilled, relaxed atmosphere permeates and it's definitely a good place to catch up with friends and chat over a pint. Any time I've visited, which has always been on a Saturday, there's live music playing. A friendly vibe permeates and Mickey Kelly's frequently reminds me of the bar from American sitcom Cheers. It has a laid-back feel and is very popular with locals, so has a solid core of regulars who all know each other. Cocktails are good and beer is excellent. Would recommend.

If you're traveling through Ireland, Jackie's is in a beautiful part of town, right near the Blackrock Beach (a must stop for any tourist) and worth stopping into. Here's why I didn't give it 5 stars; if you're a beer and cider fan, you're golden. if you're not, I found the mixer selection to be a bit limited. Smirnoff is the highest grade of vodka you can get (my wonderful, enabling husband actually asked the owners if he could bring in a bottle of something else for me and still pay for the drinks...hey, he tried) and the amount you get is VERY CAREFULLY MEASURED AND POURED. Very carefully. No free pour, no extra...again, this is from an American perspective. The cool part that makes up for the smirnoff and the teeny wee amount is how they, say, give you a Vodka/7-up. They do it with your teeny wee amount of vodka, BUT, they give you these cool mini bottles of 7 up so if you want another one, you only have to order the vodka and not another mixed drink-very cool.

We ordered drinks and had an easy wait in the entry "bar" area. We're vegetarian so we ordered the black bean and chickpea patty, which you can have topped with any of their traditional beef burgers styles and it was great! The patty was moist but not crumbly - a hard combo to pull off but the Flip Side did it. So I ordered mine "Scorcher" style and it was perfect. Great sriracha mayo, nice jalapeño relish, and the bun was super fresh. The lettuce was super weak but it's iceberg and it's winter so what can you really expect. My hubs and I also split the butter garlic fries and they were okay. A bit greasy when we got to the bottom but of course it was the butter poured on them --not like a spritz. Our friends ordered the cheese fries and said they were the best "chips" they'd ever had. I'm sure it didn't hurt that they also come covered in bacon. Our friends also had the beef version of the smoked stack and the American burgers and loved them. We also had the onion rings and a sundae. Our Irish friends thought the breading in the onion rings was too thin but I'd say they were pretty standard for rings in the states. So if you love burgers and chips for about €15 you leave here full and happy. Oh and our server Zach was amazing! So top marks all around!!!

love the ambiance here! very yummy food came super quick. highly recommend, lovely staff too.read more
