Doc's Pub Irish Sports Bar

Thank you YELP. Good reviews. As advertised, loved my burger. Nice service and they kept my busy with all the games and music.

I'm not sure why there are no reviews on this bar in the past two and a half years. Wait, it's Burlington, but still. Actually, the only reason I decided to stop by and try Doc's was because of the few positive reviews on here. I usually tire or question all of the endless bars that label themselves "Irish" or "Pub" (and this place has it all in the title) just because they have a harp logo on the wall. But, I must say I was impressed here.

I first noticed the posted chalkboards listing weekly and daily food specials, which were a mix of Irish food and standard bar fare (burgers, wraps, subs, etc). They were also serving $3 Smithwick's, which I happily accepted. After looking through the menu, I kept it simple and ordered the "Chicago" burger with fries. Not just standard fries though...hand cut fries. Both were great!

Aside from the good food, large bar and 18 beers on tap, there was a jukebox playing good music, TVs showing baseball and Buzztime trivia, guys enjoying a game of pool and even Wii golf. Before I left, I stopped by the pinball machines and enjoyed a free game, all ready to go for some reason. I'll be back, Doc.

First time following advice on Yelp!, and it didn't do me wrong!  Went on a Wednesday night looking for some good Irish grub and a lax feel.  Bartenders were attentive and personable.  Definitely had a local but welcoming feel.  Crowd was between 25 and 50 years old.   I did feel a little overdressed in polo and slacks at 9pm.  Ordered the fish an chips and they were spot on!  Gave it 5 stars because the other reviews I read we're accurate, the staff was friendly and the food was just what you'd expect from a neighborhood Irish pub.
