Liam's Irish Pub

Some friends of mine were here a week or so ago, to hear our friend's band, the Hollywood Wranglers!  The band ROCKED!!!  The bartender was super friendly, and did a pretty good job of getting drinks to everyone.  We packed the tiny place.  She could have used a server...would have sold more drinks that way, rather than waiting for people to go up to the bar for refills.

They had a decent selection of beer on tap, but I felt like the prices were a bit high for the area, and caliber of the place.

We didn't try the food, so I can't review that.

This was the closest place we could get a drink at after a nearby event on a Thursday night. There was only an elderly couple in the place when my group of ten came in. They quickly left for some reason. So we basically had the place to ourselves.

Anyway, the bartender was a friendly woman. She took our drink orders and was relatively quick in making the drinks. However, one of my friends ordered an Old Fashioned. Apparently she never made it before and therefore had to resort to a recipe book. According to my friend, the drink could have been better.

Unfortunately I was DD so I didn't have a drop. It takes me awhile to sober up and I didn't know how long we would be staying here. So didn't drink. With that said, it looked like they had a decent selection of beers on hand and made a great jack and coke according to my friends.

Interior wise, the lighting is typical of a dive bar. There's pool tables, a fancy jukebox, a stage, and what appeared to be a karaoke machine. We came too late for the food so can't comment on that.

Overall the place was ok.

So I went there for the first time last Friday.  When I got there, only a couple of people were at the bar.  Ok, no big deal.  I asked the bartender what specials they had, and they only had $4 Shocktop (the rest of the pints were $6 - hey, if I'm going to pay $6 a pint, I'd rather go to the Yardhouse).  They also had shots on special, which were pre-packaged for $3.  The only reason I ordered it was because it was 20% alcohol.  Anyways, I was enjoying the jukebox (although a little pricey - $.50 - $1 a song) until these two guys stood in front of it and told me I couldn't play any more music due to it being "Comedy Night" (on a Friday?).  Anyways, I was cool with that, and Comedy night went full speed ahead, and when it did is when it was my time to go.  The comedians didn't have any mics or amps so you couldn't hear anything!  How ridiculous.  And getting to the bathroom, you pretty much have to go all away around the joint past the pool tables.  I don't think I'll be going here anymore, unfortunately.
