We visited this spot over Memorial Day weekend while staying with a friend who lives just down the street. It's tucked into a charming little pocket town, just steps from a picturesque dock. Inside, it has the feel of a polished Irish pub--warm and welcoming--while the recently remodeled patio outside is beautifully done and perfect for a relaxed meal. The food was excellent, with solid options for kids, and the crab cakes were hands down the best I had during our trip through Virginia. The 20 oz pour of Guinness was generous and paired perfectly with the meal. 5/5. Would absolutely return. read more

I placed a pick up order. Plain wings with hot sauce and ranch on the side. I did not get any ranch. I got no utensils or napkins.

Food, drinks, atmosphere and service is great! We make a point of coming here every time we bring our boat up. We love this town and this pub! read more

We have been frequent customers since 2019. This past time waited for our food for hours. This was around the same time (July 2025), another loyal customer, Pat S. complained here on Yelp that they also waited forever for their food! Like her, we ate what we got because we were starving. Even though not all that was ordered was delivered. We won't be back. Terrible service. This seems to be a theme with the new ownership. read more

Blarneystone Stone staff is friendly . They remember return customers and their references

Unfortunately, just not much to write home about. The food was just Ok, and nothing really stuck out. My steamed clams were a bit pricey, one of the 12 didn't open and I was unable to eat it, and honestly, the broth they were in was too salty. Clams already taste like the sea, they certainly don't need a whole lot added to them! Our bartender was attentive and friendly though and kept us plied with water, which was great because it was a very hot day! All in all though, as far as an Irish Pub goes, I just wasn't that impressed read more

Best Cuban sandwich I've ever had! Sorry I ate 2/3 of it before I thought to take a pic but it's a large portion and I'll have extra for dinner later! Nice atmosphere and friendly, efficient service. My friend had a grilled Mahi wrap that was also excellent. read more

Recently, we came to an Onancock for lunch at Mallard's. We noticed a restaurant nearby called the Blarney Stone pub. We tried it today and are so glad we did! We had the hamburger sliders with Kerrygold Dubliner cheese. They were cooked perfectly; the meat had the best flavor(and I'm not a Chargrilled burger fan)‍ So did the cheese, but that goes without saying when it's Kerrygold! We also had the crab dip with the baguette. Very cheesy. The temperature was so good and as you can imagine, we finished it all. We rounded out our meal with the chocolate mousse cake. I don't think I'm going to eat for two days I'm so satisfied. The service was really good as well. They were attentive and concerned about the temperature because we were sitting near a window and it was cold outside! The heater in the window was an extremely nice touch. We are already planning our next visit and choosing our dishes! read more

We had lunch today Reuben Paninis very disappointed, the meat was not cooked correctly, not sliced correctly, couldn't find the sauerkraut and was very dry no Russian dressing. The sandwich was not prepared correctly. The Panini was toasted hard burnt and very plain. Sorry been eating there 20 years not anymore. Service was excellent. Took forever to get the meal and there were 3 tables, we ate it because we were starved and didn't have a choice read more

Saira was amazing. Came here with my buddy's. Wings were so fire I had to come back and bring more home

The Spicy Irishman was absolutely delicious! It was flavorful and just the hint of spice. Service was like talking to an old friend! She was very nice and punctual with all requests and our orders. The ambiance was very Irish, and the music was soothing and added to the atmosphere. Overall, 5/5. An amazing spot for brunch, lunch and dinner! I'd highly recommend if you're in the area. read more

I ordered two dinners and both were hardly edible. The Shepherds Pie were little mounds of mashed potatoes on top of some hamburger. The Cajun Mac and cheese was totally dried out, I assume from being put in the microwave. Would not order again especially on a Sunday night! read more

So good. Always get this burger. It is amazing and the staff and the restaurant is so good. Love this place ! read more

The Blarney Stone Pub - Blarney Burger with Dubliner cheese + the tuna taco special - Fish & Chips Near Me - Onancock, Virginia

Food and service outstanding. It's a newer pub feel inside- I was expecting something older due to the location in the historic part of town. The restaurant was very clean. Staff were friendly and liked to joke. Best part - the food. Our table had fish and chips, salmon, and corned beef Ruben. All nice portion sizes- you will not leave hungry. All equally good- would order any of the three again. Fish and chips was a big chunk of cod in a well done batter- not greasy. Well worth a stop if you're in the mood for great pub fare. read more

Best beer and great steamed shrimp, burgers and shepherds pie. Stay away from fried food ( cooked way too long and clams (too small and not local ). Great server . read more

Though I usually don't have any complaints about my visits here, I was recently disappointed. I got the bangers and mash which is delicious, but I found several chunks of bone in the sausages and some kind of strange wire-like object in the mashed potatoes. Not quite sure what's going on in the kitchen, but I've never encountered anything like this here before. read more

Had lunch at the Blarney Stone Pub. I had the special cream of seafood soup with the baguette. The portion is enough and included clams, mussels and shrimp. Looking at the menu and other patron meals, the quality and presentation of the food is good. If you're in town looking at art and antiques, give this pub a try. read more

I stopped in at the Blarney Stone Pub a few Saturdays ago when I photographing Onancock. As many times as I've passed through Onancock over the years I've never managed to get in here for lunch. Today that changed. With most of our work done we entered through the patio and walked into the interior. We were met be the person who I have a feeling was the owner who offered us indoor or outdoor seating. It was a beautiful afternoon so elected to sit in the shade on the patio up near the street. We immediately received menus and had our drink orders taken and a few moments later they arrived. Nothing like an ice cold Coca-Cola on a warm afternoon. Our server took our orders at that point. I opted for a Bacon Cheeseburger with a side of onion rings. I really wanted something 'Irish' like some Shepard's Pie but I felt like it would be to heavy with an afternoon of filming still in front of me. My friend ordered Fish & Chips. Our order came out after a short wait. The burger was good, and cooked to my specification. The onion rings were also crisp and excellent. My friend said he enjoyed his fish and chips as well. I'm a little disappointed that I left here not having something more Irish themed, but that was circumstances. I'll resolve that next time I'm here. It's good food, excellent vibe and a warm friendly staff. read more

Went here with my family for a nice lunch. The place is inviting and was busy for lunch time. They were super prepared for kids, offering my daughter (almost immediately) crayons and a fun placemat to color on. Selection of craft beer is pretty good and the food is on par with what I would expect from an American Irish pub. I had the turkey reuben panini, and ate everything on my plate. Will definitely try this place again when I roll through the Eastern Shore. read more

It's utterly ok. The drinks were ok. The service was good but we felt ushered out as they wanted to close early. The food might as well have been microwave meals for all the flavor it had. It's almost as if the cook has never heard of seasonings before. Not interested in returning. read more

We stopped in and sat outside on the side yard. The staff was really pleasant. I ordered a rum and Coke (good pours). The local clams were in season so I ordered them. Perfectly cooked. Bryan ordered the steamed shrimp. They were big but lightly seasoned (almost bland but not quite). Definitely coming back. read more

A little gem we found while on vacation. Great food and service, fun atmosphere. Portions are big-appetizers and drinks were on point

Wonderful patio to enjoy a great meal! We started with local beers from Cape Charles - pirate porter & oyster stout - and the salmon bites! All were delicious! For dinner, one of us had the fish & chips (opted for half size, which meant 1 piece of fish instead of 2...and was plenty!). The homemade tartar sauce was divine - light & flavorful, not just a glob of glorified mayo! Other entree was shepherd's pie, and it was also a hearty portion with amazing flavors! Got the Boston cream cake for dessert as a great way to end the meal! Service was friendly & attentive without being rushed. Def recommend! read more

Always a great time with friends here! The food is a plus as well as the servers. I have NEVER been disappointed.

Excellent visit. Service was great and very attentive. I had the Atlantic Cod Fish & Chips and they were awesome. Highly recommended! read more

Staying in the area for a few days we decided to try this pub for dinner. It was excellent. The decor was warm and the staff friendly. The fish and chips was excellent and there was live music that evening. Looks like they have a full schedule of events going on there. I could have stayed around for several more hours, but alas had to leave at the end of the meal. This one is a sure winner. read more

I never write reviews- but I had to for this one. Food was very disappointing. Service was awful. Never returning. It took the bartender/server 15 minutes from when we sat down to get our drinks. We watched her run her hands through her hair, touch the POS monitor, touch other things, then put our straws by the mouth piece in our drinks. Clam chowder had 3 pieces of clams and the rest was potatoes- expected more. The shrimp po boy came out looking like the cook threw it together in 10 seconds. We were never asked how the meal was or if we needed anything else. Terrible terrible service. Management can contact me if they wish to learn more about this poor experience. read more

I had lunch at the Blarney Stone Pub today for the first time. It has a great rustic atmosphere that you would expect in an Irish pub. Service was attentive and friendly. I had the strawberry and greens pub salad with the addition of crispy chicken. The salad was very fresh with goat cheese and walnuts and the chicken was hot and very flavorful. I will definitely be going back and I can't wait to try dinner! read more

Nice locals pub with great wait staff and good food. The Irish potato skins were awesome.

I have been visiting pubs and bars for over 40 year. I can say I never saw a bartender work as hard or fast as Liz. I was there on a night that they had a street fair going on and she handled not only the full bar inside with drinks and food but also handled the orders from outside. THE MOST amazing bartender I have ever seen EVER! If she doesn't have any ownership in the bar she should or minimally think about opening her own place. THANK YOU LIZ !!!!! YOU ARE AMAZING ! I would go back because of Liz ! read more

Stopped here for dinner on a rainy night in Onancock--the Irish weather had us feeling a nice cozy Irish pub! Blarney Stone did not disappoint. Firstly, the service was great. Our server was incredibly helpful and sweet. A live guitar player/singer was playing that night, which provided some great fuzzy-warm ambiance. We got the corned beef spring rolls and rosemary garlic fries as an appetizer. Both were sufficiently tasty. As an entree, we got the shepherd's pie and the bangers and mash. Both were super tasty, and incredibly filling. Exactly what the body needed. Overall, a great intimate spot! read more

If I could give 10 stars I would. Blarney's was just an overall great experience. The service, the food, the atmosphere. I didn't get the name of our server but he was fantastic! I ordered 3 appetizers for our table of 4 and the calamari, fried dill pickle spears and Old Bay steak fries were wonderful. I had a cheeseburger cooked to perfection, my husband had the salmon, my MIL had the fish and chips and her friend had 1/2 lb steamed shrimp. Everything was excellent and reasonably priced. We were in town for the NAHRA Trials and Regionals and Blarney's was recommended by our group. Great choice! read more

Nice little place in town, clean and friendly people. My husband had the shrimp po boy and loved it! I ordered the fish and fries and I felt like the beer batter could use some seasoning. I didn't prefer the batter on the fish. The fries were steak fries and they were fine. Quick service and nice place. Friendly atmosphere. read more

Friendly atmosphere and good food. Came under new ownership a while ago and really turned around the place with its services and menu

Stopped in while visiting g the in laws. Nice quiet Irish pub on the middle of a small Virginia town!!! We sat at the bar to get lunch and a drink. The bartender was extremely friendly and welcomed all the customers. I'm definitely going back for a bite to eat and to have a few cocktails next time I'm back there.. People were friendly, atmosphere was cool. We only had wings that were okay. They were out of the corned beef egg rolls which sounded really good.. this was a disappointment but I got over it.. see ya next time!! read more

Neat little mix of Irish pub and local watering hole. Good food and Liz and Chrissy always take good care of me
