  First, the staff was not the problem, they were attentive and friendly.  Who designed this place.  The TV's are all against the wall, most tables are against the wall.  Picture yourself watching a tv that is six foot above you on the same wall, you can't hardly do it, your neck needs to play tricks to look up and see the closest TV's, this is at best very odd, what were they thinking.  If you sit in the middle of the large area you are ok but don't get a booth table or you won't be able to see the TV.  Then we ordered their drink special and they were out of ingredients to make it.  Next the we ordered what we had in the past, a paddy melt cheeseburger, normally very good.  This time the chef must have counted the number of fried onions as they were virtually non-existent and the fries were an insulting amount.  Next time we drive the extra 10 miles to the Port Charlotte location.  This place is clean and the beer fresh but too many other drawbacks to return

  Standard sports bar with all of the games and average pub fare.
  
  Plain and simple, Beef O'Brady's is just what you want when you want to catch a game that isn't shown on your home cable package or network TV. Pops and I went to check out the Detroit Lions game this Sunday and the Lions (as per usual) were disappointing, whereas the atmosphere was as to be expected and exactly what we were looking for.
  
  We had a nice waitress who did rush us through our game, food, or drink orders. We decided to split the appetizer chicken fingers and potato skins. Both were decent. He drank Yuengling and I decided on Angry Orchard.
  
  There seemed to be a good mix of older folks catching their home team, families who accompanied their husbands out to watch the game and to catch a meal, and a table or two of young-er locals. No one seemed out of place or unwelcome.
  
  A good time was had by all, except the Detroit Lions.

  We have eaten here a few times. I really want to like this place.  I guess because I love the Irish themed pub we frequent in MD.  This place has, at best, been mediocre.  The menu looks quite appealing.  However there is little care in the execution. Our last visit was two evenings ago.  I ordered the blackened chicken dinner with house made chips and my husband ordered "Cuban" sandwich with curly fries.  The sandwich, although not really a Cuban as it had salami instead of pork, was tasty. But the accompanying fries were cold. The waitress brought "new" fries but they had clearly been microwaved and soggy, not freshly fried. My chicken was also tasty, even though I prefer to have the little fatty bits and connective tissue from the skin trimmed off. My house made chips could have been enjoyable, had they been shaken or stirred while cooking.  Instead, a third of them were in clumps with large starchy raw areas. I guess we will keep looking for the pub fare that hits the mark, here in PC/Englewood.
