    Super cute
    Deborah P.

    Brian, the B&B owner recommended this place right down from his B&B. So glad he did walked right in and got a table. Super cute place you order at the bar. They're very friendly. We ordered the shepherds pie split it because it came with a salad too, which was perfect. We ended up getting two beers. It was great for an evening to just sit back and enjoy. Local favorite absolute. Must they say it's the best pub in Jonesboro and I would agree!

    Cauliflower fritters. Yum! Dips were great and garlicky
    Tay E.

    Food was great at a fair price for weekly visit. A nice mixed green salad comes w all the entrees. Tried a few of their specials including the cauliflower and was delicious. Favorite was the fish n chips.

    Quaint atmosphere. Pleasant service. Pricey for the serving sizes, but tasty. Will likely go again.

    Food and ambience was great, but the service was a little slow. The place was crowded, which usually means "good eats"

    Lads, this gaff absolutely slaps…read more Not jokin'--we're talkin' top-tier stuff here. Picture it: miserable Saturday, wind goin' sideways, whole day lookin' like it needs a good talkin' to. Me and the missus gets blown into this pub like two gobshites lookin' a shelter and a feed. And ... what a shout! I ordered the corned beef and cabbage, and I swear on me Ma's good china, it was filthy good. Fork went through it like it owed me money. Juicy, melty, little ribbons of fat runnin' through it like it was showin' off. The cabbage? Deadly. The mash? Lads... the mash tasted like an angel got notions and said "ah go on, I'll make this one myself." Bit of garlic, bit of peel, bit of magic. I nearly cried. We're not from Johnson City, so it might be a hot minute before we're back, but believe me--if I'm anywhere within sniffin' distance of this town again, I'll be leggin' it back to this place like a man late for mass. Ciaran, our server, was sound as a pound--quick, chatty, callin' us "friends" like he was adoptin' us. Man deserves a raise and a parade. The place is set up for tunes later on, loads of seats, loos clean enough to perform surgery in--madness. Prices? Couldn't argue with 'em even if I wanted to. The missus got fish and chips for eighteen quid, mine was twenty-one. Soft drinks only two quid, and a rake of beers and cocktails if you're feelin' spicy. Absolutely recommend this spot to slake the thirst and sate the hunger--ah now, that's the kind of night that'd put manners on ya.

    Perfect sized food plates! Anything you order will be tasty & the Guinness is poured perfectly…read more Staff is so nice and welcoming and the place is huge!

    Tipton Street Pub was a fun stop during our night out in downtown Johnson City. By day it feels…read morelike a pretty typical neighborhood pub, with booth seating on one side and the bar on the other. As the evening goes on, though, the music gets much louder and the atmosphere shifts into more of a nightlife vibe. It felt like a mix between a local pub and a late-night hangout, with people enjoying drinks and making the most of the evening. Definitely added a bit of character to Johnson City's downtown scene.

    I am extremely disappointed that I flew from The Bahamas to Johnson City & my first stop upon…read morearrival was to Tiptons Bar only to be told that they do not accept "foreign Id's" and that I am not allowed in their bar unless I bring a passport.. because my Government Issued drivers license isn't good enough. When did it become a crime to be a foreigner & why would anyone want to walk around with their passport just to visit a college bar ? It was an extremely tacky and disappointing experience especially since I loved tiptons when I was a college student at ETSU. I will not fight to spend my hard earned money anywhere therefore I will not be visiting a bar that discriminates against my nationality and identification. Very unwelcoming and disheartening... so much for supporting local businesses. I am a world traveler and have NEVER being denied entry anywhere else in the world. Pathetic.
