Don't ask for extra pickles on your sandwich. They charge you EXTRA! Come on! Seriously?? For a couple more pickles? Service is good. Employees nice. The only thing is... I paid the waitress for a beer... Gave her a 5 dollar bill. She never came back with the change ($2.50), I guess she assumed the rest was for her, I would have given it to her. But it's just the assumption of her of keeping it and not asking that GOT me.
Review Source:Pretty crappy food. Service was okay. We had it to go since we were staying at the nearby Hyatt. My Jambalaya looked like it was condensed in a can and mixed with a prepackaged thing of rice before they microwaved it. They gave us mild wings even though my boyfriend asked for hot like 3 times. Their burger was mediocre. We didn't expect much, but they had a sticker at the front saying they had the best rating of food from somewhere.
Review Source:Each visit gets worse. Â It's a gang banger crowd and everyone in the place chain smokes Cool n Milds and Cigars. Â Even the wait staff and bartenders will smoke right in front of you. Â Food is hit or miss. Â Their signature Ruben sucked...VERY skimpy on meat and they tried to serve it to me on white bread...NOT!! Â When I pointed it out to the server they played stupid and insulted my intelligence. Â The bartender then lite a cigarette and put it in an ash try right in front of my face and let it smolder for 10 minutes. Â This place is a joke and is in need of a serious overhaul. Â It has potential but the current management doesn't seem to care as they continue to draw in the low end riff raff crowd. Â I would avoid this place at all means as there are much better options in this area.
Review Source:I have come to this location twice. Â I will say I would have given the place 2 stars b/c of the food but the good drink specials save it and I bumped it up to 3. Â First of all, the food is average at best. Â The first time I came here I ordered the Chicken Breast dinner. Â The chicken's flavor when it came out was bland at best. Â The sides were ok but nothing special either. Â Wasn't bad but wasn't anything memorable either. Â The 2nd time I came I ordered the 14 ounce Steak Dinner w/Mac & Cheese, Mashed Potatoes w/Gravy, & Garlic Toast. Â The steak was cook perfectly as I ordered it medium rare but once again it didn't have much flavor to enjoy. Â I've always believed that a good steak doesn't need steak sauce but let's just say that the Heinz 57 was most definitely used. Â The mashed potatoes were good but the Mac & Cheese also left a lot to be desired(it wasn't cheesy at all except for the top layer. Â My friend ordered the blackened fish and when it came out it wasn't done all the way so it was sent back. Â I didn't think fish was a hard dish to do(especially blackened) but it was not very good at all. Â She wasn't very happy with her food at all so we ordered the Potato Skins after she played over her uneventful plate of fish. Â The Potato Skins were good tho. Â With that being said....I think this isn't a place you come to eat...you come to drink. Â They have really great drink specials each night(except Sunday). Â Both nights that I went(one Monday night & one Wednesday night) had either $5 specials or cheaper. Â This place isn't memorable but it's not bad either....just a middle of the road place. Â Good location probably helps it quite a bit as it's quite close to the airport but I wouldn't go out of my way to go here.
Review Source:They have deals every night of the week except Sunday. (industry night-Delta) They are a generic Feux Irish Pub but they have cold beer and bar good. This place is made for regulars. If you are a regular you will get the best service ever. If you a business guy staying in a near by airport then you wont get the best service but it has good wings and cold beer. I recommend Saturdays, Kareokee night and it has some great characters who are regulars on Saturdays.
Review Source:After being denied the ability to use my Yelp coupon from my phone on my first visit...shame on you managment...I had to come back with a print out...but we ended up having a pretty good time and of course it was Karaoke night and I and the homie Trav decided to do Gold digger by Jamie Foxx and Kanye West and apparently the crowd was in a hip hop mood as the round of applause followed our performance. Food was ok pretty average, but the coupon thing grinded my gears a little cause the email clearly said you don't have to print it out just show your phone, I'm sure i'm nitpicking but its the principle! lol will go back though Dj made me do a duet with her "If this world were mine"....I think she was diggin the pretty browns.
Review Source:The Pub rocks. Â Liza runs this establishment so well and I am a proud and frequent regular. Â Chef Robert is awesome as well and Yaishia, Kristin, Terry, Lee and Kris are great bartenders. Â Karaoke is always entertaining and the servers are attentive and full of personality. Â Trivia is always fun so check that out on Tuesday and Thursday!
Review Source:$30 plus tip for shepherd's pie and 2 half n halfs. Good, friendly service. Food was ok. Don't be fooled by the name, this is a Sports bar with a Plastic Paddy flavor. If you're looking for an Irish pub atmosphere, go elsewhere. If you're hungry and want a cold beer, this is fine. Warning: they allow smoking.
Review Source:Horrible on all levels. The waitress took our beer order within 5 min of being seated and that was the only thing she got right all night.  Took 20 min to deliver the beer, forgot the app we ordered, wrong salad dressing for my side salad. The Reuben was soggy and tasteless. Hubby had the Guiness stew that he described as  tasteless.  The waitress was far more interested in giving her phone number to the table of young men beside us than serving us.  This place is walking distance to several hotels, including the one we were staying in.  If you find yourself staying in me of these hotels, do yourself a favor and keep on walking.
Review Source:I tried Irish Bred Pub today because they advertised a $6.95 lunch special (select entree + 1 side + soda) outside their building, which is nice because I know how much I will spend. Irish Bred Pub is part of a small strip mall, so there is plenty of free parking in the lots behind the pub. Immediately after I entered the pub I noticed that they allowed smoking (-1 star for smoking allowed inside). The Irish Bred Pub was not a cozy and warm pub, but a typical corporate Irish pub style with lots of banged up chairs and cheap looking bar tables with spilled beer stains on them, and only Irish because they serve Harp and Guinness and have mashers on the menu.
The place was nearly empty for lunch, so clearly the lunch special isn't boosting sales. I should have taken that as a cue to leave, but I wanted to try a new place and I was already here. So, I decided to order the pork tenderloin sandwich. After waiting 10 minutes I finally got my food.
The fries were ok but no better than a fast food location. To be honest McDonalds across the street would have been better because they have much better turnover. It was the pork tenderloin sandwich that was just awful. It was a gigantic piece of over seasoned/salted  piece of meat on a Kroger hoagie bun with low quality onions, lettuce, tomatoes, and pickles. Â
The bill was almost $8 because they add a .50 charge for carryout. Seriously if you have a sign to advertise a lunch special you should put that .50 charge in the price and call it a $7.45 lunch special since most people are not going to eat in a smoky bar and order a beer during lunch because they have to work.
Bottom line is that poor quality food and allowing smoking indoors means that I probably will not return here ever gain.
This is one of my favorite watering holes! Always really great drink specials and a huge selection at that! The staff is super friendly. Very Cheers-y...."where everybody knows your name" Chef Robert does a great job with the food. Some traditional Irish fare, but also American/ Pub food. If I ever want a great burger, I come here. They always come out to my  medium-rare specifications and have perfect flavor.They have industrial smoke eaters that suck out the smoke for effort to non-smokers, but IT'S A BAR PEOPLE! If the smoke bothers you, well, get over it or go somewhere else. Late night can get a bit rowdy on the weekends, so if you are looking for a place to cut a rug, this is your place! Otherwise, they have other nightly entertainment including Trivia and Karaoke.
Review Source:Good service from bar staff. Beer specials reasonable, other drink prices in line with Atlanta.  Ordered fish and chips, frankly had better at long john silvers.  The cole slow was almost puréed is was chopped so fine.  The batter for the fish glistened with oil and the worst part was the fish was mush on the inside.  Good thing the $3 pints specials were keeping me going. Other items on the menu seemed over priced, one special they were running was 50 cent wings, double what most places charge.  Seems like a lot of locals. And it is a smoking place with so so ventilation.  Will not be on my rerun visit list when in Atlanta airport area.
Review Source:Yes another Plastic Paddy's in the Irish Bred franchise. Big dance floor with giant disco mirrors. Â Enough said.
However, they have great service and really great prices. Â I had clam chowder and a sandwich. Â Both were really good. Â Â Although it is clearly a neighborhood bar, they are very friendly and welcoming of strangers. Â I am glad I stopped in.
Happened to be staying nearby for a convention and just happened to find this place. Late afternoon weekday, there were almost a dozen folks, mostly at the bar.
 Ordered a beer which arrived quickly. Decided on, what else at an Irish pub, Fish & Chips! Portion size was generous and delicious...done perfectly. Chips were battered fries not the run of the mill frozen ones, very tasty.
 So service and food get a high rating.
Recommended it to a couple also attending the convention but their friends got there first and decided against staying...it is a smoking bar ( in the old sense) so be prepared...frankly I hadn't noticed, perhaps because it wasn't crowded.
Bellied up and got served first beer in less than a minute. Â Promising. Â Once the initial joy of beer wore off, I started to notice the aforementioned smoke-stink. Â P.U. Â
Not much depth to the menu but I figured I'd manage to find something. Â But at this point the gal behind the bar couldn't be bothered to follow up my initial order or even make eye contact. Â They weren't very busy. Â I seemed to catch them during a shift change because there were quite a few assorted people behind the bar in various stages of "cashing out" which is shorthand for "ignoring thirsty and hungry patrons". Â After waiting a solid 10 minutes with an empty beer glass in front of me, I overpaid and overtipped just to get the hell out of here. Â Avoid.
I am Irish born, bred and educated. This place has nothing to do with the Irish except for a some posters and limited Irish menu items. Worst of all, it allows smoking which is not allowed in any pub or restaurant in Ireland. The place stinks with cigarette smoke.
I ventured in here whan I was staying nearby at an Atlanta airport hotel. I was going to eat here but the smell put me off and I didn't want to feel that I was eating out of an ashtray. No wonder the place was empty. I am surprized that it is still in business. Go across the street to Ruby Tuesdays which is smoke free and is much, much cheaper beer and food wise.

It is not a traditional Irish pub by any means but more of an updated version if that makes sense. I like the available beer combos here like a Black Castle (New Castle and Guinness). The pub burger is really good. I get it with bacon. The fries are also quite good. I had the New York strip special on Tuesday nights and it was pretty good. There are plenty of TVs here. It seems like a good local hangout. I always come here when I am in town for dinner and beers.
As others have said, there is quite a bit of smoke here. I am not sure why Georgia can't outlaw smoking inside like other states have. If you need to smoke, you could go outside instead of infecting everyone in the bar with second hand smoke and that awful smell.
There seems to be a good mix of patrons and staff of all races and genders. There are plenty of places to sit and drink. There is a pool table and dart board. There is also a dance floor.
If you are looking for a hard core Irish pub, this aint it. If you are looking for a pub with an Irish twist that is close to the airport, this is your place.
I know nothing about what it means to be Irish, so I cannot rate this bar/restaurant based on how Irish it is. Â
I can say that I've been there about 5 times. Â Although a friend and I originally went to this place by default (it was within walking distance and neither of us wanted to be the designated driver, we did go back on numerous occasions. Â Since it is close to the airport and the airport hotels, there seems to be a decent population of travelers at most times. Â There is also a pretty mixed crowd: Â black, white, hispanic, young, old, sober, and completely and totally pissy drunk. Â
Service is decent, but can be a bit slow. Â However, all of the wait staff were very nice and very personable and some of them even remembered us upon our return on late occasions. Â
The food was okay. Â I ordered nachos one time, but they were out of lettuce. Â Twice, I tried to order the Irish cream cake that was on the dessert menu, and both times they did not have it. Â My friend and I ordered the bananas foster brownie to share and it was AWESOME! Â I got steak fajita tacos one time and my friend just ordered fries for an a snack. Â I can't say much about either of those things. Â There is not much to say about them.
This place gets an A for entertainment. Â I see nothing wrong with an older white guy, who works in corporate America, getting down on the dance floor to the latest hip hop song. Â Personally, I am not a fan of sloppy drunks, but it is amusing to be a fly on the wall and be a witness to their stupidity. Â There is karaoke on Monday and Wednesday nights. Â Neither my friend nor I ever sang, but it was nice to be able to go and sit down for a few drinks and be able to have a conversation without blaring music. Â Some of the karaoke goers were decent singers and some were worthy of the American Idol reject reel. Â It was entertaining. Â The karaoke DJ, named Robbie, was super cool. Â He noticed us the first time that we went and came over and talked to us. Â He asked us for any song requests and he obliged. Â He, himself, actually sang, and he is GOOD! Â We went back another time and he bought us drinks. Â He sat down and talked to us again. Â He is just a cool guy. Â
One of the major bad points about this place is that it is so freakin smoky. Â I feel like I am a magnet for cigarette smoke.
I guess this place is really hit or miss, seeing as the crowd is unpredictable due to the large composition of patrons who are travelers.
I'll let you decide if you'd have downed the place for what I am about to describe. Â It may seem petty, but it is a peeve of mine. Â I ordered 20 wings and iced tea, but when I counted (yes, I like to just see for myself) I found there were 19. Â Heck, I've been shorted way worse by Michon's, and they did it on purpose. Â Perhaps this was a one-time error. Â Perhaps it is too petty to mention...but I just did.
As for the service, the waitress took my order and my wings arrived in all in a timely fashion.  The wings tasted good, were the proper temperature, and the tea was good, too.  So, I have no issues with them there.  The waitress was friendly and attentive.  I mentioned the wing count, and she seemed perplexed.  It isn't like you can go back and get a single wing, nor would you expect a completely comped meal or anything.  I thought she might have comped the tea or something.  Nothing  was done.
As for the ambience, I thought it was more like a sports bar with the TV screens everywhere. Â Apparently, from what the others said about the DJ, I got lucky. Â No DJ that night, or not during my visit anyway. Â The place is fairly new, so everything is in good, decent shape. Â Reservedly, I say the ambience CAN be okay, and it was fine for me.
Overall, I will say this may be a temporary rating. Â I am going to go back to order the same thing and see if they do it again. Â More to come.
1 star for the service...
I'm going to bash on this place for a bit but I will admit--I'll probably go back in the future for reasons unknown. Â It's just one of those places you can't avoid sometimes.
Ok now for the bashing--this place has identity issues. Â Its name indicates an Irish pub, but it is far from the Irish pub that most people have come to love. Â I was let down when I walked in and didn't feel anything Irish about it (but if they didn't call themselves an Irish pub, I would have no complaints about the interior and decor--it's huge and attractive with plenty of bar-top tables and booths). Â
They market to adults who are too old to be going out and shaking their booty on a dance floor. Â There is a DJ on weekends, so people from the south side who don't feel like venturing up to Altanta come here for their clubbin' fix. Â Are you picturing rednecks yet? Â Yep. Â It's pretty redneck. Â Ok so earlier in the night before the booty-shaking starts, maybe you're there to watch a sporting event on the big screen. Â Well you won't be able to hear it. Â The acoustics in the place are terrible. Â The place is always full of smoke, so non-smokers beware.
Ok, the food--play it safe and go with the Quesadillas or something fried and you'll be fine. Â My husband had the shepard's pie once and the potatoes on top tasted moldy. Â As for beer, I love a really cold Blue Moon. Â Theirs is always slightly warm. Â Not good.
I suggest this place figure out who they want to be and stick with it. Â There's too many contradictions between the big screens, the dance floor, the high ceilings, and the DJ Cosmo (whatever his name is) advertisements. Â But hey, the place is usually crowded so maybe they are ok with that and don't want to change. Â
The 1 star--I've always had pretty good service in my 3 or 4 visits to this bar.
Like I said, I will probably be back, not out of desire but out of boredom. Â Hey, the wannabee hot mammas shaking it while the old guy tries to keep up is pretty freaking funny.
I've tried to like the Irish Bred Pub because I know some of the folks who work there. Â But I just don't.
When I think of an Irish pub, I think cozy neighborhood place where locals gather to wet their whistles, throw darts, wax poetic and maybe sing mournful ballads badly. Â
This place is more like a rowdy Bavarian beer hall, minus the lederhosen and oompah band. Â It has very high ceilings and terrible acoustics. Â Add live music and not only can you not talk/hear, you can't listen to the music either because the sound is so reverberatingly distorted and painful.
Service is okay, but just. Â Food's nothing to write home about. Â It's fairly new and locals had high hopes for it when it moved from the Scott Hudgens building where it used to be B52
.
So far I can't help but wonder, what were they thinking...maybe a hangar to house a real B52? Â
(5 stars for you, tho, ya sassy wench ya!)
