I came here for an AZ Girls Pint Out happy hour.
Seems like your typical Irish bar.
I was with a large group and I have to say that our waitress was extremely attentive and prompt. 5 minutes after a drink was empty, she was there to see if we'd like another. She even split all of our checks w/out us asking.
My friend and I split the Jameson chicken skewers and spinach dip. Both were good. They have a good selection of beers and ciders.
The bathrooms are creepy. Not so much that theyre not lit, just the decorations on the walls. And if you have AT&T, you will have no cell service here. Parking is kind of a pain, but thats par for the course w/ any place in this area.
This is a great place to stop at on a bar crawl.
Irish Republic-
Since San Tan Brewery was to busy, I walked into this place - which was not busy at all- that was the 1st red flag... First impression was it smelled bad when I walked in - probably all of the musty $1 bills stapled to the wall. Nice HD tv's - 5 of them at the bar. Â Bar was sticky and uncleaned - with wadded up paper napkins and an used glass in front of the bar where i sat - which the bartender never did bother to pick up. Â Stella beer was not very cold. Â Bartender did not know they had a chicken sandwich - he had to look at the menu. That should have been a warning to not order it I guess. The bun was good. The chicken was not seasoned - flavorless and full of connective tissue- no wonder the bartender never bothered to ask me how everything was... But only served a few fries - definitely not enough - ketchup bottle was sticky and empty. I ate half of my sandwich, drank half the beer and left. Â I will not return there- and btw, Â it takes quite a poor experience for me to rate a bad review. Â They could definitely learn something about customer service, along with food quality.
I have been here about 10 times. Â Once for lunch and the rest for dinner. Â They have the best Fish and Chips. Â It is lightly battered, the fish is moist, and the Tarter Sauce is awesome. Â The challenge is they don't serve the Fish and Chips after 10 PM. Â I was here last night and was denied their fish and chip deliciousness!! Â We ended up going next door to San Tan Brewery and ordered the Fish and Chips there and it actually was pretty good. Â
Fish and Chips is a signature dish for Irish Republic  and it is deep fried so I don't quite get why they would pull it off the menu at 10:00.  I have had a couple of servers that were awesome, but for the most part the service is slow and often times the server is not rude, but you get the impression that they have better things to do and your more of a burden than a customer.  Service and quality decline drastically if it is busy.
In terms of drinks if you focus on something from the tap you will typically be okay.  If it is slow you will not have to much trouble with mixed drinks.  If it is busy, you will likely be disappointed with your mixed drink.  Typically it will be warm, half poured, and if you have anything with sugar on the rim (Lemon Drop) you will taste salt with the sugar.  If they were more consistent with their service, food, and drinks and did not sacrifice their quality when they are busy  I would give them a higher rating.
Came here late on a Saturday night with a group of friends to celebrate my birthday. Was so packed that most of our party had to stand, could barely move, and couldn't hear each other. The waitress was not very friendly and the drinks were not that great. My friend paid for me so I am not sure what the drink prices were like. Hubby also said he saw a few people actually smoking inside. Isn't there an ordinance for that? Needless to say, not my kind of place so we had 1 drink, paid, and went next door to San Tan Brewery. If you like loud, overly crowded bars with bad service, then maybe this is your place.
Review Source:The first waitress we got was just horrible. We had a party of 8 outside, and she asked everyone what we wanted to drink, got 1 order, and then walked away.
She came back, asked if we were ready to get drinks, we said yes, she took my order and my boyfriends order, and walked away. Again.
Then she came back, got 3 more people, and left. Ridiculous.
So my aunt goes to the bar, orders  her drink since she's obviously being ignored and here's the interaction
Aunt: (to bartender) Can I get a beer please?
Bartender: The server will be with you.
A: She hasn't come out yet, so I wanted to come here.
Server: (walking up) Can I help you with something?
A: I'm getting a beer from the bar, since you left our table a few times.
S: THAT IS A COMPLETE LIE.
A: Really? I have a table of 8 that can attest to you walking away from us multiple times when we wanted drinks.
S: That is just not true. I was out there and NONE OF YOU WERE READY.
B: *snakes away and gets the manager*
Needless to say, the manager came out, said we were getting a new waitress, and she TOTALLY rocked our world. She was much better. We were ready to throw change on the table and walk away from the terrible service, but our party was so large it wouldn't have been worth it.
Food was good, beer was alright, and half of the servers seem to be nice.
Can I mention that the owner is totally kickass? He was very very friendly, let my little sister in (we were there with the family) even though it was late, and was just totally great.
We visited at 8:30 p.m. on Friday, me and wife and 10 month old. Â I always give the place an "out" if something's not right. Â My wife and I got seated at a 2 top on the wall and the high chair placed between our table on the side. Â When the old lady and guy paid their bill to the left of us were 28 open seats, all 4 and 2 tops. Â To the right of us a 4 top and the dimwit hostess sat a 4 top there between us and another 4 top and I internally was pissed because we were so crowded the VERY friendly waitress was putting food on the table next to us. Â The reuben was DYNAMITE, HVAC was not. Â The front was open so we were "pitted-out" from fetid air. Â The 4 top next to us was pissed they were sandwiched between us and another table and they didn't move they left. Â The VERY friendly waitress waiting that table agreed with me the hostesses must be brain-damaged...OK, she said one is "new." Â $5.50 french fries (straight fries) were a tad old, not crispy. Â They did great on the reuben. Â Maybe I'd give 3 stars if when I walked out 4 hostesses and waitresses and one guy weren't impeding our exit and didn't thank us and were talking about slamming shots. Â I don't care about the 50 bucks, I care about the experience and a beer glass that was not cold, it was slightly warm. Â We should have waited the 35 minutes for SanTan (this place was 30% full.) Â I suspect this place is 5 stars to get hammered, but they miss some basics I learned as a waiter / bartender. Â I cleaned crumbs off my seat - & 5 people yapping outside.
Review Source:I came here for some lunch with my mom and I was very happy we stopped in! They have a rally nice selection of alcohol (beer and liquor primarily). I had their vegetarian mac and cheese, it was sooo good. It was creamy and rich, I really liked the broccoli added to the dish. My mom had a pita pizza which was really good to! I also liked their music selection (Flogging Molly, NOFX, Dropkick Murphys). I will be back!
Review Source:Really had fun here. Rugged Ambience, friendly servers, non creepy people. Me and my girl friend had a blast. Really came here for the Beergaritas since I never know any bar near my house that's serving it. Â 6.25 for a decent sized margarita with a cute coronita, I'm sold! The Nachos were a bit so-so though. If you're into beers, they have a wide selection of it, mixed and all. If you're looking for cocktails, they don't specialize on that so you'll get your general Cosmo/Margarita. But yes will for sure come back!
Review Source:I recently moved into the area, so my roommates and I decided to give this place a try. Everything minus the food was fine. I'm not much of a drinker, but the menu does include a lengthy and diverse beer selection.
The food is basically what you'd expect from a pub. Â While the menu is a bit more extensive than similar places, the quality is about what you expect--mediocre at best. Â But if you're not looking to eat, the atmosphere is nice for hanging out with friends, grabbing a beer, etc. Â The servers are also friendly.
The day after going to the pub, though, I was very sick. I don't know if it's that my stomach can't handle a beer and hot chicken wings anymore, (must be getting old!) or if it was food poisoning. To play it safe, I'm definitely not going back for the food!
This is a decent Irish Pub.
When we arrived, I was craving Fish & Chips, but not after our server told us they weren't very good that night. Â I appreciated the honesty.
I got the Owner's Choice sandwich. Â It was good, not great. Â There were surprisingly very few french fries served with the sandwich, and those fries weren't exactly hot.
The servers were nice, and it looks like they have a lot of events. Â It could have just been a slow night, but it didn't seem worth returning to.
Been here twice. Once with the girls for an afternoon drink ad last night with friends for dinner. Liked the atmosphere--one long bar down the length of a narrow building. Came at 5:45 and found the place dead, The crowd doesn't come in until around 7. Had no trouble getting a four top. Our server was nice and and filled our ever want. She checked up on us frequently.
My friend's shepherd's pie was more gravy than anything else but he did like the crust. Others had the fish and chips and found them very good--4 large filets with fries or chips. I wasn't hungry so I ordered the pretzel app. Yum! Warm and soft and perfect with my margarita.
The beer list is extensive and I was surprised by the wines available. Quite a few in every category.
The noise level in Irish Republic is what one would expect--loud. We struggled to hear conversations across our small table but it was a fun night. The music was not live but a mix of 80s-90s hits.
The tab for three dinners, a beer, cocktail, and a lemonade with tax, no tip, was $68. I would definitely go back.
I had walked by this place a few times and kept meaning to go in but hadn't had the chance. On Sunday we found out they are one of the few places open for breakfast right there on Sundays (seems a few of the other popular breakfast spots are closed on Sunday. Â I was a little hesitant about an Irish bar for breakfast but it was fantastic.
Service was great, food was yummy and reasonably priced. I'll be back for sure.
Went here Saturday morning for some breakfast with my boyfriend, the bar/restaurant was pretty empty with only 1 or 2 other tables of people but we chose to sit ourselves outside on the patio. Our waitress was slow and had no knowledge about the specials on the board. It seemed to take forever for our food to arrive which seemed strange with the place being so empty. There were 4 or 5 other waitresses working this morning which seemed a bit much. They mostly stood around next to our table and talked about drunken nights out with friends and other pointless distracting topics. Our waitress was very friendly but was not attentive at all. The food was pretty good, I got the French (Irish) Toast and the portion was big, I couldn't even finish it. I would come back but maybe for a drink or two at the bar. The food is decent but I wouldn't sit through another meal service like that again.
Review Source:Loved the area and the building. Â Comfortable interior. Â Waitresses and food is the draw back. Â Spinach dip was ok with cheap tortilla chips. Kick up the chips or scooping devices for better review. Â Fish and Chips were a stinker. Â Soggy and greasy with what seemed to be Pollack not a Cod like fish. Â Cheap 3rd party cole slaw. Â Not good. Â What really sets up the for disaster is the waitresses. Â Slow and not thoughtful of what is required to be a waitress. Lil weird. Â Anyway, Â we will be back to sit and drink beer in a great setting.
Review Source:Irish Republic serves your standard irish pub fare - burgers, various beef and chicken sandwiches, corned beef, shepard's pie, etc. Â The food is decent quality, and the portions are sizable...at least for the main dishes. Â Appetizers were another story - we ordered the spinach and artichoke dip as an appetizer, which came with somewhat stale tortilla chips and a stingy amount of dip. Â What's up with that?
The decor was neat. Â I liked the dollar bills on the walls, though this might be a turnoff for some. Â Would make a nice place to meet up and watch whatever game is on at the time.
Service was friendly and prompt. Â No problems there.
Overall, a decent local pub. Â Probably a nice stop if you happen to be in the area and want a quick eat/drink, but I wouldn't make a specific trip for it.
This place is in the heart of Downtown Chandler.  It's like an Irish Hooters, meaning there are scantily clad  female servers.  I'm not into that, being a female, but I still enjoyed the atmosphere.  Dollar bills and old photos hang from the walls.  I got the grilled 4 cheese sandwich.  It was OK, a bit greasy and heavy.  I was searching for a relatively healthy veggie option and its anything but healthy.  Nonetheless, there were other menu items that looked intriguing and I would come back again to try them.
Review Source:I've been to Murphy's every time I go to AZ (always for work). Â Although it's been so long since I've traveled for work, it seems the name has changed...
I choose the hotel around the corner so I can walk back and hopefully rid myself of a few calories from the amazing food and beverages! Â I've tried the Corned Beef and Cabbage twice. Â The first time was the best. Â it was juicy, flavorful and the mustard seeds added such a unique touch to the dish, I was instantly a fan. Â The Shepherd's pie was tasty enough. Â Too much for my tummy, but I did my best. Â But I will say, my favorite part was my very first visit. Â I sat at the bar and the bartender came over to take my order. Â When I explained my dietary restrictions, he ordered something for me (off menu shhhhh)... Â It was Ahhhhmazing! Â Not only did it have the perfect blend of protein and veggies that I asked for, but the chef had sliced and broiled/grilled a few cherry tomatoes to send my palate into over drive! Â
With so many choices of beer to choose from, I enjoyed the different flights available and found I really like the variety offered.
the atmosphere is fun, a little loud some nights, and others, so laid back and peaceful I wouldn't want to leave.  You will have fun if you go.  I'm not sure if they are still doing it, but ladies, they have Manicure Mondays! lol  Treat yourself to a good spirit and pampering!
We drove out here just to check this place out... the LAST Irish pub, in the whole Valley, that I had yet to Yelp!
We walked in and were hit, in the face, with a pretty nasty smell... mold maybe... weird, but not inviting. Â It was mild enough to still stay and have a pint and try their grub... but it was noticeable...
We sat ourselves at a high-top facing the bar (the place is set lengthwise in what must be a very old building to be set up that way) and took a gander around. Â What we saw were broken TVs and dollar bills covering EVERYTHING. Â I get the dollar bill thing - it's become your signature... but on EVERYTHING?! Â On the TVs? Â No more mirros behind the bar so the place looks smaller than ever? Â No Irish signs and advertisements because they're all covered in dollars? Â Very weird...... and definitely takes away from its feel - it looks more like a 1980s biker bar than an Irish pub.
The staff was all pretty gruff and uncaring. Â They dress up all the girls in tight clothes to accentuate legs and chest... okay... very Hooters-ish...... while the guys were all sporting ear gauges, mohawks, ballcaps so low they had to lift their heads to see from under them, etc... Â I dunno...... just felt like a trashy biker bar instead of an Irish pub (yeah, I know I said that twice).
When the waitress came, I asked for a pint of Guinness... to which she replied that their taps are all running warm. Â Niiiiice. Â I took one anyway because it's a stout... but my wife stuck with water. Â Incidentally... maybe that's the smell... maybe they were having electrical and cooler problems in the back.
I watched the bartender pour my stout (clueless or uncaring as how to do it correctly, of course)... and he even bumped into his fruit trays to slosh the top inch of it out when he was handing it to our server! Â I got my Guinness still fully cascading and an inch from the top of the glass. Â Gee, thanks!
We were still hungry... so we went for the pretzel with cheese sauce. Â When it came, it wasn't a whole lot of food... and the sauce was more cream than cheese (or, again, they're having storage issues back there?). Â It wasn't very good at all.
Needless to say...... we didn't do dinner here. Â That lousy appetizer, my crappy beer, the mediocre service, and biker bar atmosphere left us picking up and heading to a different Irish pub about 10 miles away.
P.S. - no, I'm not a prude...... heck, my Yelp avatar pic is me and one of my several motorcycles - boots, torn jeans, toad hat, embroidered shirt, and all. Â If I want a dingy biker bar, though (and I DO get in that mood), I'll head to the Hideaway, Buffalo Chip, Billet Bar, Handlebar J, Dirt Dogg, WHATEVER......... fact is...... we came to an upscale area for an Irish pub... and just didn't find one here...
The place was way better when it was Murphy's Law.
It has gone way downhill since. Â Broken TVs, overpriced & bad food and mediocre service. Â Beer selection has been drastically reduced to a few ok beers and a bunch of junky beer.
$6 a beer. Â $13 for 3 very small pieces of fish and a few fries. Â Just not very good.
I always look at their menu everytime we pass by. Â It doesn't seem to grab me until...
Chandler Jazz Festival, the perfect time to get some pub food. Â Hubby got the hot wings with pale ale. Â The wings are not too bad...not that great either. Â My cutie pie had a hard time deciding between the fish and chips or from the KIDS MENU, chicken fingers and fries. Â He went with the chicken fingers and was happy with his decision. Â I was in the mood for the briney, corned beef and cabbage. Â I didn't get enough St. Patty's day. Â The corned beef sliders seemed to be a good idea. Â Not so heavy, but would satisfy my craving. Â I found it a little too jerkey-like on a sweet side. Â I'm glad I ordered a cabernet to go along with that. Â
The wine glass was a little too spotty...another pet peeve of mine. Â It had hard water deposits on it--never heard of Jet-Dry? Â The server messed up and brought us another order of beer and wine and comped it. Â Sorta made up for the wine glasses! Â
All in all, it was not bad.
Brews are ice cold BUT!!! there food is GREAT!!!! and the servers are cute/sweet!
Also try there breakfast hugh servings and coffee never ends they make it strong too, not no whimpy coffee here. Fridays a bit crowded so get ther early, so it make great for a real Irish Pub. Â LOVE THIS PLACE!!!! try there fish & chips, Sheperds Pie oooooo goood!!!! and the bread pudding is Jodie approved!!! 5 stars she LOVED IT, and my wifew knows here bread pudding.
Average. Nothing special or over the top about this bar. It's authentically an Irish Pub (which I love) but the prices are very high.
The atmosphere is friendly, service is average, and the bar is large and well-spaced. It's great for a group setting or just catching a drink after work.
I was disappointed with the higher prices. Two beers and two glasses of house wine cost me $30 (before tip!). Not cool.
I was early for a dinner date around the corner and happened to see a couple of guys hanging a sign for what looked like a new Pub/Restaurant. Â I always like to try new places so I ventured in. Â I guess this place used to be called Murphy's Law and now it is called Irish Republic.
I had never been to Murphy's Law, so although I have nothing to compare it to, I did like the interior and service of the "new" Irish Republic. I sat at the bar and service was attentive and friendly.
Sad, sad day. I had been wanting to try this place since it first opened. I went tonight and was greatly disappointed.
Before I saw the bill, I thought about giving it two stars. Just thought. But paying $4.25 for a pint of Bud Light, on a Sunday after 9 pm, seems alien to me. How many places, first of all, have happy hour after 9 or even all day Sunday? Plenty. And who charges $4.25 for a pint of Bud Light in the first place? For a pub, I was also saddened that they only have one size of beer.
Onto the food.
My husband and I decided to share the chicken tortilla soup- a favorite appetizer which we try to order wherever we go, when available. There was so much salt that it left a burning sensation on my tongue and lips. That's all I could taste- salt! And there was no avocado. Disappointment.
Onto the meals. I usually never do this, but I sent my food back. Actually, I don't think I've ever done that before. I got a turkey and avocado sandwich. Can't be hard to mess up, or so I thought. The first bite I took, I couldn't help but think... so bland. Upon further investigation, the turkey tasted old. The avocado had black and/or brown spots all over it. And the bread... I could have bought better tasting bread from a dollar store. The french fries that came with it had NO flavor at all- just mush! Tasted like a microwaved potato slices.
My husband got the Shepard's Pie. Again, bland. One chunk of meat was pure fat. Pieces I got were tender and fine, but again, bland. We had never had that meal before, and weren't sure what it was suppose to taste like. Online recipes show veggies- onions, peas (a decent amount of them, too), and celery. I couldn't define any of those in the meal he got. We joked that this meal is what Chef Gordon Ramsey defines as, "A dog's dinner." We only ate it because we were hungry.
At first, I thought the service would save us. The first few times the waitress came around, she was great. But after my meal came, and I realized I wanted to return it, I didn't see her for almost, or at least, ten minutes. I just sat there not eating, poking around at my hubby's pie. She was nice but the fact that I sat there for so long was... lame. I was obviously not eating; she even walked by me.
I don't want to write this to be mean. I was just so disappointed because my husband and I flipped a coin to decide going here or to San Tan Brewing Co, another place we wanted to try. I think the owner needs to seriously look into his changes- seeing as how a regular customer Yelped about the downturn of this restaurant in the past year. We may have just visited too late. Â
Arg, my tongue is still burning from the salted soup. ::droopy dog voice:: boo hoo.
Lunch on Saturday with my sister and nephew. Â Please note: Â This review is solely based on a dining experience... (although I will head back to check this place out at night!)
On the menu:
Appy: Â Soft pretzels sticks (4) and cheese (All appys $5 during happy hour!)
Drinks: Â A pint of Guinness for my sister and the perfectly poured Snakebite for me. Happy Hour prices (Daily 2pm-6pm) only $5/pint.
Entrees:
 Nephew:  Mild Wings  $8.99 (All appys $5 during happy hour!)
 Sister: Chicken Shepherd  $10.99
 Me: Turkey Reuben (sub coleslaw for sauerkraut) with sweet potato
  fries.   $9.29
We shared them all and have to say we were extremely impressed. Â The wings were big and well flavored. Â The Chicken Shepherd was equivalent to a cauldron full of cheesy chicken pot pie with a flaky puff pastry mounted on top. The turkey Reuben was dee-lish with thick crusty bread and well seasoned coleslaw. Â The sweet potato fries were some of the best that I've had. Â Definitely more than enough food for all of us!
The atmosphere: Â Fun, eclectic, divey type bar with an Irish flair... Just my kind of place! Plenty of entertainment in reading the dollars posted all over the walls! Â :)
The service: Â Adequate. Â Nothing really stood out as exceptionally good or exceptionally bad...
Overall: Â We walked out happy and full! Â Prices a little high unless you hit up happy hour or use the 2 for 1 in the Entertainment book. Â Definitely will hit this place up again!
hate having to do this but there has been a lot of changes at Murphy's in the last year, none of which I can report as being good. This place used to be consistently great with service and food but I'm sad to say it's not anymore.
Began earlier this summer when the food started being hit or miss. Some days it was the stellar food we all came in to have at lunch and other days... not so good. To the point that the last three times were bad and the large group of us haven't gone back and probably won't. The food thing came down to if a certain chef was working - if he was there, good; if not, bad. Started asking the waitresses and figured out the trend.
Fast forward to today and that chef has left and no longer works there. Which leads me to understand why the last 3 times in a row the food has been subpar. Like what makes a tomato hard? wasn't green or unripe but hard like... tough to cut hard. wtf? I don't know enough to know this is a reason the food has got worse but typically if you're looking to franchise you get different food vendors that can deliver the same type of food to your locations all across the country. So think frozen foods instead of more fresh stuff etc. I mean it makes sense.
Also when you have a trained Chef quit whom made great food, and tailored to groups that wanted more expensive off the menu lunches and catered for local businesses & events... something's up. I can only assume it was the quality in food and the new direction...
... meaning... I also found out (chandler news and biz journal) that Murphy's is wanting to franchising and changing their name to Irish Republic and some of what's going on inside. Girls with slightly different garb... kilt's and knee-high's. etc. Not so much breastaraunt-ish but similar.

Service... much like the food the service has gone down in quality. There never seems to be enough girls during what used to be the lunch rushes and an hour lunch quickly turns into 1:30 lunches waiting on fill-ups and food and the check. It's not horrible service, girls are nice and friendly, just slow.
In summary:
We haven't returned in at least 4 weeks and it's just not an option when thinking of places to eat downtown Chandler anymore. From 5 to a 2 (meh i've experienced better).
I miss what Murphy's was - we all do.
Standard issue Irish pub with the addition of walls covered with paper money which patrons have kindly donated as an emergency fund should the pub fall on hard times.
Actually that is probably not why they are there but the thought occurred to me...
I had fish & chips which were good. Â Not the best I've had in the valley but good. Â
I liked the atmosphere and the service so I will likely be back. I've got enough Irish in me blood to sway my dollar a wee bit in the direction of Irish pubs. Â 'Course the spirits do me fine as well.
All right... Â So I go to an "Irish" bar/pub for one reason and one reason only. Â To have irish whiskey. Â So when I went to Murphy's Law I expected to have some irish whiskey, it is an Irish pub after all. Â So when I ask what types of irish they have I get the answer "Bushmills and Jameson" Â Just regular old Bushmills and Jameson. Â Not even the top shelves of each brand, just the boring old shopping at Walgreens brands of irish whiskey. Â
So I have a new "Irish" bar that I hang out at. Â It has a way better and deeper selection of Irish whiskey. Â It's called Fry's Grocery store. Â I'll be getting my Irish on in the frozen food section.
Murphy's Law is nothing terribly special.
A few thoughts:
- It's quite small (narrow) and seating is hard to find because they get busy early.
- The patrons seem a little older than the normal bar crowd.
- When they have music on you can still talk and hear the music. When they have a band it's way too loud. You have to scream at your friend sitting next to you.
- I am fairly certain they do not have a patio, so you are trapped inside.
- Because there is not enough parking in downtown Chandler, parking is always a challenge.
If my friends did not like to go here I probably wouldn't bother.
Last Sunday we needed a place to work that had wifi, beer, and a good breakfast. This place was suggested by a friend, and we got there at 8AM when they opened. We grabbed some tables in the back by the electricity (for our laptops) and ordered breakfast. I got a great pasty and the potato pancake part was awesome. Coffee is just coffee, so you can't really screw that up.
Later I had an awesome Shepherd's Pie and reasonably priced beer. We drank, ate, and worked for about eight hours straight without any complaints from anyone.
Wifi was fast and reliable, and the place was clean and tidy. I will go back soon.
I liked the environment. The decor was carefully thought out. I am curious as to how much money is actually on the walls.
The corn bread was great. I had a potato skins and they had sat for a bit before arriving at our table. I think my husband was happy with his food (although I am not sure what he actually ate).
I think this would be a great place to hang out on a Friday night.
Murphy's has a really cute, quaint environment. Â Large selection of imported & domestic beers.
If your dining fantasy is to be served by Megan Fox, stop by and ask for Casey's section. Â She was charming and provided great service.
The onion ring appetizer was served in a small pewter dutch oven. Â Cute presentation, but not practical for a fried food, as the bottom rings got steamed and soggy.
I ordered the shepherds pie, and my wife ordered the fish and chips. Â My entree had all the right components for this classic dish, however the chef was a little heavy on the salt that night. Â I loved the biscuit at the top.
Think it was a bad night for the fish & chips. Â It was a small portion size (2 pc) and the fish came out kind of soggy. Â We think it sat on the line too long, giving the moist fish too much time to steam the beer batter.
A manager came out to clear our plates, and asked how our dinner was. Â We told him, and he offered to buy us a round and promised us that our next dinner would be perfect. Â We declined the drinks but appreciated the good customer service.
Overall
I really enjoyed opening day at Murphy's Law. This place looks so polished and interesting, I could have sworn it was part of a larger restaurant group. They had all the staple items you'd expect at an Irish pub (stout, stews and plaid clad wait staff).
Food
Fish and chips were tasty and crispy. It was a large portion and the standard fries were really good.
The hamburger I ordered medium came out bloody rare and cold. Their second attempt was well done and without a lot of flavor. This part was the biggest flop of the evening.
Service
Super friendly and amazingly attentive. They did have opening day jitters, but I'm willing to overlook a miscooked item on opening day if your servers have a great attitude. They did!
Special
They have a special item on their menu that if you order it, they will donate 1/2 of the price of the item to a local downtown Chandler non-profit ICAN. That's cool!
