Finn McCools

This Irish Pub is part of the Keagan's family but unlike most chain pub-restaurants it's keeping up with its standards.

The restaurant is situated on the corner of "restaurant loop," well that's what I call it, in Landstown Commons Shopping Center. It has outside seating under the awning on the days weather is permitting. The hostess station is offset when you walk in, which I liked because it allows you to see the seating and bar areas to figure out where you might want to eat. We were greeted immediately when we walked in the door and seated in a side room filled with windows that allowed the natural light to brighten up the room. Unlike the rest of the place with the darker English pub feel.

Staff: Our server was polite and quick to our table but she wasn't versed on what we could order off of the menu during the brunch-time hours, like a side of fruit. However, she kept coming by and made sure we had what we needed. I give her 4 Stars.

Food & Drink: We showed up for the Brunch and I started it off with the "Make Your Own Bloody Mary" and it was awesome! Great ingredients from spice to pepperoncini to standard celery garnish. Although the breakfast menu is very limited the food was pretty dang good. One of the folks in our party ordered the breakfast burrito with ham and it was tasty for a packaged tortilla. I ordered everything A la carte to get what I wanted being Corn Beef Hash, Eggs to Order and a Croissant. I have to admit I was expecting a hash that had a canned taste but this was excellent. Sliced corn beef with potatoes and spice. The croissant was cut and toasted perfectly to bring out the light fluffy flavor.
Since I have been here for lunch too I'll give some comment about the few items I've tried as well. Although the Quesadillas are good there's nothing to separate it from the typical chain restaurant quesadilla. The Potato Soup and Jalapeno Burger wasn't much different good but not great.  3 to 4 Stars depending on what you order.

Cleanliness: This place was clean top to bottom and the bathrooms not only had freshly clean feel but I liked having the bands and entertainment being posted...it actually made me think about having this as our meeting place for a future weekend kick-off, 5 Stars.

Overall: Finn McCools is a good place to visit for a drink with friends or to grab a meal if you're shopping in the area but not a place we would go out of the way to dine at. Still all things considered I give it 4 Stars and will keep going back when I'm around.

Have passed this place a few times but after some shopping today the wife and I decided we needed a break and we spied the sign across the parking lot. The 1st impression was a turn off as the bar is right by the entrance and there was a very loud party so we asked to be seated in the enclosed porch, this was a treat maybe 8 tables and a small bar the top half is garage doors that open up in the summer very cool! Our server was Meredith very nice and attentive and a plus w the beer on the month was PBR score for me as I love an ice cold Pabst. We settled in and order some apps for our meal, Hot Crab dip with french bread was piping hot and very crabby but a little bland, fried oysters we perfectly done with a tasty romalade sauce super yummy, soft pretzels with cheese and mustard dip were great super hot not to salty and the dips were great. All through the meal the service was excellent and the place was clean and well staffed we will defiantly be coming back!

Nice. I'm just not into this cuisine. The potatoe appetizer was yummy. Nice place. Staff not too friendly when I was there. Maybe next time they will be......
