    Corned Beef Reuben Sandwich , homemade potato chips, & Colman's original Mustard.... Brian.
    James M.

    I'm constantly traveling for work & pretty much live in hotels 85% of the year....this was the BEST Hotel/Restaurant /Bar that I have ever been to in the Northeast. Their Corned Beef (Rueben) sandwich is + home made potato chips with a side of their spicy mustard from Dublin, Ireland

    Cup of baked potato soup
    Meri L.

    I'm staying at the hotel in which this restaurant is inside of. I had a late lunch/early dinner here and it was delicious! I started with baked potato soup. There's just something about baked potato soup. It was delicious!!! Every bite had bacon and potato. It was a perfect balance of flavor and ingredients. For my entree I had a Turkey burger. It had excellent flavor! The burger came with avocado, Gouda cheese, lettuce, tomato and a horseradish aioli. It was yummy! There was a slight kick, but it wasn't overwhelming. It came with a choice of fries, house made chips or salad. I opted for fries. They were just okay. They needed some type of seasoning. However they were nice and crispy! I also ordered a beer which was nice and cold. For everything including tax and tip it was under $30! Prices are very reasonable. Service was good. My waiter came back often but not too often to be annoying. Definitely yummy food!

    First time at Auld Shebeen and was not disappointed. After a long day of travelling, I checked into the hotel and just couldn't bring myself to get back in the car. On the recommendation of the front desk staff, I tried this place out - I'm not typically a fan of hotel restaurants. I opted for a Guinness (after all, I was in an Irish Pub!) and the chicken pot pie. The puff pastry and the flavor of the filling were both VERY good! I overheard the table next to me talking among themselves about how good the braised ribs were. My only downside was the noise level. The restaurant wasn't very crowded, however the noise level was such that I was not able to take a phone call.

    I did not get the servers names but the service was great. I had the chicken pot pie and a Smithwicks Irish lager. Both were excellent. Ambiance is Irish Pub style and I liked it. InRecommend this spot

    When you are stopping in Whippany, you gotta try The Auld Shebeen. The service is excellent. Our waitress was working the left side of the restaurant and running the bar at the same time. When she couldn't get to her tables (when the bar was busy), the staff members and manager checked in on us and took the dirty plates. Excellent service!!! Super nice staff. Now to the food... the french onion soup is a MUST!!! I loved it, and it was actually quite filling. For apps, we ordered the irish nachos and pork belly strips. The irish nachos were delicious. I wasn't a fan of the beef hash, but thats just because of my preference. The pork belly strips were quite rich tasting like super thick bacon. Our waitress noticed we were here for the Wentworth Con, and she wished us a great time. Please give The Auld Shebeen a chance. Just a note... it can get loud in the restaurant and the lighting is quite dimmed.

    I had been here many years ago. I remember a great vibe in this place. The décor and the separate spaces are conducive to sharing smaller group gatherings. We showed up and immediately sat at the bar. There were a few choices in IPA's. I went for a nice hazy fruity choice. Then we ordered our meal. Soup was a good choice given the yucky weather. We got French Onion Soup and seafood soup. Both were delectable. The broth was just right with a ton on Gruyère cheese. We then got a keto-ish spin on Fish and chips by eliminating the chips and substituted with Caesar salad. My better half had a crab cake sandwich. Wow! Not to mention the great bar service by the team. Mike made our New Years Eve special. We even toasted with our friends from near and far having baby Guinnesses.

[Blowing on my nails.] The menu is a mix of American comfort food and gastropub classics, but with flair, and has a bit of everything to satisfy different palates. Our eyes were probably bigger than our stomachs as we ordered 2 apps, 2 entrees, and 2 cocktails, and it was an enormous amount of food. The portions are definitely what you'd call hearty, and everything was very tasty. Thursdays are all day happy hour so we picked the fried calamari appetizer at the HH price (still a full and generous plate and didn't seem like a downsized version) which were tender and well-battered, as well as the hot honey wings which were meaty and substantial. The short rib parpadelle with housemade pasta and a perfectly medium-rare, well seasoned hanger steak with truffle fries completed our satisfying and belly-stuffing meal. The cocktails are serious as well - the presence of a drink with egg white is my personal litmus test for a bar that knows what it's doing, so the Thyme to Bloom special had my name on it. I'm salivating just looking at photos of dishes I didn't order, and am already plotting my return!

I had the Chicken Parm (with a substitute of a side salad only) and the lady had Fish and Chips Here is the pros and cons. Pros. THE PRICE FOR FOOD IS BEYOND REASONABLE!! The cocktail sauce definitely seems homemade and has a great kick to it. Fries were had a good crisp and the fish was pretty good. The side salad was very good and was a decent portion. The chicken parm and fish portion was a very healthy size. The whole ambiance of the place reminds me of places from my childhood and that makes me happy. Cons. The fish could have been a slight bit moister but over was still good. The chicken parm was a bit bland in flavor and a bit thick in breading. Coleslaw, with the fish and chips, was definitely store bought. Overall, the place is worth the stop on through if you are on a budget or like place that remind you of an era gone by. but still want to eat out. Just remember that it is a CASH ONLY place. This is worth stopping on in at least once! We will be back to try other food!

Nice bar, and good selection for wines and beer. Parking is street parking mostly and they have couple of parking spots to the side of the restaurant. Genuine hospitality that welcomes you like they've known you forever. You are going to ask why you haven't been here many times before after you visit. Everything is of quality and fresh. The menu is concentrated offering a nice balance of traditional items and Irish dishes. The Potato and Leek Soup is made very well with such a clean smooth broth and plenty of potato and leek present in the soup. Try the Cajun Chicken and Sausage gumbo was a nice option offering Big pieces of Chicken and Andouille Sausage. Nice kick but not overwhelming. Clams or Mussels appetizers are on point and worth sharing with the table. The Corned Beef and Cabbage dish was amazing and definitely NOT bland! Lean Corned Beef and fresh hand cut veggies make this a must have! The NY Strip, is tender, cooked perfectly and recommend having the whiskey sauce over the top! For $38.95 it is a bargain!
