Been here many times usually really enjoy the fish and chips and chowder.  This visit was disappointing. Poor service. Waited a long time to be greeted then waited longer to order.  The portion of fish I received very small not the usual and the waitress forgot my chowder.  However still the best bread around. We will be taking a break from  here for a while.

Don't even think twice or stop to analyze what I've just told you. Just order it. They are absolutely delicious, plentiful, clean and served in a huge bucket with broth and butter for dipping. I've never in my life thought steamers would be something I'd order out at a restaurant but the Chieftain proved me wrong!
This is definitely a fun little pub featuring a variety of beer (and Magners!) on tap and live Irish music on the weekends. A bit small and cramped, and the wait for a table tends to be pretty long, but if you can snag a seat at the bar or if you don't mind waiting/standing, it's a fun place to hang and eat, drink and be merry!
