Really enjoyed everything about this place! We were visiting Gettysburg for a sporting event and wanted something near the center of town. The atmosphere inside is unique and cozy. The service was fantastic. The food and drink were excellent. We will be back! read more

Would I eat here again or recommend it? Sure, but it def wouldn't be my 1st suggestion in Gettysburg. Waitress and staff was very friendly and the building is old historic, pre-civil war years so that's super cool. Food is decent. read more

Cool Irish pub. Good menu options Irish food and American bar food. There are tons of whiskey options which is really cool. Kitchen closes at 10. The Guinness beef stew didn't have much flavor and the Irish soda bread was more like a scone and not really like the soda bread you get in Ireland. Great decorations, feels like a real Irish pub. Our server was very nice and made sure we got our food order in before the kitchen closed. read more

I came here for lunch on a Saturday with my partner and his grandma. There is paid street parking available in front of the restaurant. We were seated right away even without a reservation. The place definitely has a pub vibe, though without the loud energy. Service was kind and friendly. I requested no ice in my water and it came as such. I got the shepard's pie and I enjoyed it. It seemed to be made with real ingredients and not just something heated up. Most items on the menu were below $20 which is somewhat rare these days for restaurant food. Overall I'd recommend this place for good food and service! read more

This place was excellent. If I lived here I'd come back again and again. My server was Jenny, she was awesome and helped with my dinner selection. I had the lamb burger and it was exquisite. A pint of Guinness - what could be better. And finished with a whiskey shot of Green Spot - Chateau Montelena (they must use the wineries barrels). Also excellent read more

Just a darn good Irish pub in the middle of this downtown tourist town. Here's where you can go and enjoy a good Irish pub with good Irish food. There's a variety of good Irish style food to choose from, many of which have their own family flair. When I saw the shepherds pie on the menu, it made my choice easy. The shepherds pie comes with your typical beef, carrots, peas, and savory gravy. This is touted as a family recipe. It sure was good. On top sit your mashed potato. No doubt I will come back to this restaurant, There were so many good looking food choices. I'd have to try something new. read more

cool place, but the server (mini fridge) at the bar was a rude dyke, I liked the design and ambiance tho.

First of all the pub had no handicapped ramp so the manager Vish was so kind to hold a rear parking space for us so we could enter through the backdoor. Derrick our waiter was equally as awesome, we had a table waiting for us when we came in. We each had a fish & chips plate which was excellent. Highly recommend this restaurant, great atmosphere, service and food. read more

This is Our favorite Irish pub when we come to Gettysburg. Everything we've eaten on the menu is delicious. The drinks are delicious. My only complaint is I feel like the portion sizes are just a little bit smaller than I'd like for the price. But, it is obviously good quality food. For example, I got a sautéed shrimp dish and for once it's not rubbery and dry like shrimp from any other restaurant. Can't wait to visit again. read more

Looking for some place a little different while staying in Gettysburg. This was a recommendation from our B&B staff. We were looking for something light other than a burger and noticed Fish & Chips on their web menu. We arrived and promptly seated. In a bit the server came ad asked for our drink order. I figured an Irish pub, a Black and Tan would be in order and they did perfectly. We both ordered the fish and chips, thinking the 6oz would be too small so we ordered the 10 oz. Well when the order came, the fish was huge. We both thought uh-oh too much food. The fish was perfectly deep fried and pretty good for the most part. If we ever come back this way, we might try something different next time. read more

If you're in Gettysburg, you can't miss this hidden gem. The Garryowen Irish Pub is so much fun, has live music, and incredible food. I am a huge fan of shepherd's pie, so of course, that was one of the main reasons I went. What was shocking was the shepherd's pie here is better than the three different shepherd's pies I had in England. Yes, really! (I know England is not Ireland; it's on the bucket list.) The soda bread and stew looked amazing and everyone was thrilled with their food. They also have local pop (otherwise known as soda) and merch if you want it. Highly recommended! read more

I've been to this restaurant 3 times and every time it delivers on deliciouness and consistency of quality. You can't go wrong with any food selection - the hardest part is selecting from all of the great menu items. Highly recommend as an authentic Irish treat while in Gettysburg! read more

Goes without saying that this is the best Shepard's Pie and Guinness beef stew I have ever had. Warm, rich and comforting. Also, the best damn burgers you are gonna find, and not just in Gettysburg. You will feel like family when ya step into this cozy pub. read more

Great atmosphere, beer, food and staff - can't ask much more than that. Nice on-tap beer selection. Enjoyed Harp and another that was Guinness-like but I don't remember the name. There were 5 of us. Both the Fish & Chips and the Shepherds Pie were large and delicious. Along with 2 different Burgers and a Caesar Salad, everyone enjoyed their dinner. The restaurant is about a block up from the town center of Gettysburg. Definitely will return on a future visit to town. read more

OMG. We've been to Ireland, and it's hard to top the shepherds pie and fish and chips from there! Gerryowens hit it perfectly!!!! Kelsey was amazing, took incredible care of us, and we couldn't be happier. This pub is ON POINT. We highly recommend the hot whiskey sandwich as well. You feel like you're in Ireland when you're here and it was outstanding!!! read more

Bailey's coffee was great for a cold afternoon. The onion soup was perfectly balanced with Guinness. My husband says it's the best fish & chips he's ever had...and he's had his fair share. Loved the beef stew and soda bread. The bar was full and seemed like everyone was having a great time. We sat in one of several dining rooms. I liked the brick walls and old doors. The staff was very friendly. Highly recommended! read more

Only had drinks and dessert but both were great. As was Missy at the bar! Service could not have been better. The place was ole time Irish Pub atmosphere with lots of memorabilia on the walls. Authentic Irish atmosphere which I loved! read more

Tried this restaurant for takeout last night. Ordered two entrées... Fish and chips and Bangers with mash. The fish was a large portion of haddock deep fried in a Yuengling beer batter. The coating was very good and remained crispy, even though it was in a takeout container for 20-30 minutes. The fries were OK... nothing special. It would've been nice to have a small cup of coleslaw included with this entrée. The bangers and mash (two grilled sausages with a topping of fried onions on a bed of mashed potatoes) was also quite tasty. The interior ambience and decor in the restaurant was very nice. The only thing that held me back from giving five stars is the price (including tax?) for these two entrées.... $44.48 plus tip, which seemed a little expensive to me. However, food quality was very good and I would consider ordering takeout there again and/or dining in. Note: The street entrance to the restaurant is a double set of steep 4? 5? 6? stairs with handrails that is not terribly easy to negotiate for people with disabilities. There may be another more handicapped accessible entrance, but I did not see it. read more

Friendly staff, cold beer and good food make this a great stop. Seated in one of several dining rooms, I felt like I was in Ireland. Wide selection of beer and cocktails. Menu is varied with lots of Irish specialties. I started with a small Caesar salad, served with several crusty slices/croutons...nice. I ordered the Shepherds Pie, which was served piping hot, with a generous and delicious topping of whipped potatoes. Divine! No room for dessert, though they sounded great. read more

It's just what I imagined a pub should be. Bustling waitresses, noisy, and lots of laughter. The food was delicious, Irish Stew has always been a favorite of mine.

First off, the atmosphere was cozy, quaint, and comfortable, but very clean. The food was amazing. More than I ever expected. The Irish nachos are a must try. The fish and chips were absolutely ridiculous. So so good. The staff was fantastic. The bartenders were attentive, knowledgeable about what they were serving, and very quick about it. Missy was a rockstar behind the bar along with a gentleman, who I didn't get his name, but also deserves recognition. I was a little Leary going in but so glad we stopped. read more

They charge for using a debit card when they should only charge for credit cards! Called the owner and he said too bad. It may not be much for some customers but for others so much more. His attitude was too bad just pay not his problem. Not very honest. Will not return and I hope others will make note of their receipts. read more

A+! Interesting menu. Very Irish. Had the Reuben sandwich plate and the Shepherd's pie. Both excellent. Took half of the Reuben home. Service was great. read more

PROPER Irish. There are lots of places that claim to be Irish, but few are proper Irish. The whiskey selection is top notch and the food was perfection. Literally felt like I was back in Ireland, sipping whiskey with my fish and chips. The sticky toffee pudding also did not disappoint. If you're a first responder, take a patch to add to their collection behind the bar. read more

Very possibly a 1800 era tavern. Our party of four sat at the bar as the restaurant was filled with Friday night clientele. Our party ordered two fish and chips, one shepherd pie, and one hamburger. The fish and chips was one of the best; light fluffy and not overly moist. The burger was cooked very well. Try their soups. They have very good food and very good service, but I think one of the main reasons to come here. Is he design and ambience of the restaurant. Check out the pics. read more

My first time in Gettysburg in ages, we were looking for delicious food on our last afternoon in town. We stumbled upon Garyowen Irish Pub and stopped in for a bite. We were not disappointed one bit! We walked in and immediately admired the authentic Irish decor. Even the locals having lunch could have been plucked straight from the Emerald Isle. The menu was filled with so many delicious sounding options, it was difficult to pick. I started with a couple Scotch eggs. I've had Scotch eggs a number of times, even in Scotland. But these were the best I've ever had. The seasoning was absolutely spot on! For my entree, I went with something I'd never tried before, the Irish Spice Bag. A Paper bag, filled with chunks of fried chicken, chips (French fries) and a curry gravy. Sounds weird, tastes fantastic! Of course, I also had the best poured Guinness ever. The service really knew what they were doing. Come in, have a seat, enjoy a wonderful meal here. read more

Such a cozy and cute pub in Gettysburg! Stopped in for lunch while staying in town for a wedding, and we had such a nice experience. The food was tasty and the cider was cold, and the ambiance is so fun! The service was very prompt and friendly as well. We were seated in the tea room section, but there's also a dark cozy bar area and a pub/dining room as well. Having visited Ireland last year, my husband and I were thrilled to see that a traditional spice bag (an irish pub dish consisting of chips, fried chicken, and savory dried chilies and seasoning in a paper bag) was on the menu. We tried that along with some scotch eggs and a salad, everything was fantastic. The curry sauce accompanying the spice bag was so yummy! Would absolutely recommend to anyone staying in the Gettysburg area, and will absolutely return when we are back in town. read more

Guiness stew and sheppards pie so good. The gravys were very tasty i would come back!

nice little place in downtown Gettysburg. We came the last week in July for a late lunch / early dinner. We were noticed by 4 employees waiting for a table, and finally the 5th employee greeted us. Once we sat, it was pretty smooth from there. They have a pretty good beer / cocktail menu along with their food menu. My wife had the spice bag, which is pretty much, fries, curry gravy and tenders in a paper bag. I had the Garryowen stew, which comes with soda bread. Table service was attentive and good. Overall recommended while in G'Burg. read more

When we walked in there was no one at the wait station. So we had to wait a bit. They seem very busy. Once the person arrived we did get seated fairly quickly. It was a cute little bar. We were in a time crunch so we quickly ordered. We split some jerk wings and Irish Stew. The wings came out first. They were hot and delicious. The sauce was a bit of a surprise. I thought jerk would be a dry rub but it was a sauce. It was slightly spicy and slightly sweet. The Irish Stew with Irish soda bread was very traditional. You can taste the port. The beef was tender and the vegetables were soft. We didn't have time to try the sticky toffee pudding. But during the whole time I really wanted to try it so after the tour and dinner dropped by to ask if I can have it as a take out. I was so happy when they said yes! So I got my sticky toffee pudding. Worth it! read more

All the food was good. We had the Irish Poutine as an appetizer, phenomenal. I had the Shepard Pie and my wife had the Hot Whiskey sandwich. Shepards pie was seasoned very well and the gravy on the Hot Whiskey sandwich was awesome. The Ambience was rustic and old, great fit for Gettysburg. The service was a little slow but not bad enough to not justify 5 stars. read more

Service and food were great! Would definitely visit again when in Gettysburg. The lemon drop martini was great
