I really like this place. I've avoided writing a review on it before because it's hard for me to place my finger on why exactly I like this place, but I do. Sure it's kind of dark, and the bathrooms are small, and while they have a good selection it's not the best, but I *really* like this place. The Guinness tastes better here. The bartenders are friendly, there's one who will make a shamrock in the foam of your Guinness, which I find amusing and awesome. The music is free and every night. Sometimes it's loud and sometimes it's not. The bands set their own volume. The nights it's too loud inside they have a nice patio out back to lounge on. There is absolutely nothing pretentious about this place and maybe that's why I love it so much. It's the sort of place where I don't think I feel out of place regardless of how I was dressed, I could come in dressed up and feel like I fit in and I could probably show up in my pjs and not feel out of place (I usually shoot for somewhere between the two though).
Review Source:This is a pretty dark dirty bar that happens to serve some good beer and whiskey. Â I would say it attracts a bit of a rougher crowd and if you don't fit the bill they don't really encourage your presence in the bar...no ambiance to the place. Â I would not call it a pub...that is too nice of a term.
