I don't understand why this restaurant only has 3.5 stars... are people not ordering the right things or what?!?
The bangers. Just remember the bangers. Order it, you'll love it. The irish nachos are delicious (comes on a sizzling platter and is also on the happy hour menu), and the bbq pulled pork sandwhich is great too. Another great menu item is the shepard's pie, I know there aren't too many people that are fans of this dish, but Maher's makes a mean shepard's pie, and you'll savor every bite with your eyes closed for sure...
If you've never tried Mahers, bookmark it and try it, if you have and don't agree with it being more than 3.5 stars, try it out again (go for happy hour) and order some of the mentioned items, hopefully it'll change your mind! I can't say much for the happy hour beers and drinks, I usually just go for food and leave the drinking up to the boys, but the food is absolutely scrumptious.
I had another outstanding dining experience at Mahers last night. The place was packed, the servers were busy, and the music was fantastic. Despite the large crowd on a Thursday night, our service was prompt, friendly, and lacking nothing. I have probably been to this pub 4 times since my initial review, and I can not say enough good things about it.
Review Source:Authentic Irish pub in Lake Oswego!
Great beer and cider, but they also have a small wine selection. The food is pretty tasty. The food portions might seem small but it's all quite filling. I've been going to Maher's for several years but on my most recent trip we got a reuben, a shepherd's pie, and their suggested beer pairings. We also got a salad on the side that was as large as our entrées.
Their new(-ish) location is an old house, which makes for a cozy atmosphere and there's a great outdoor area. Their patio is perfect for a cold beer in the summer, and in the winter they get their fireplace going and it just makes you want to eat more potatoes and drink more beer.
Maher's is a fun place to go if you just want a beer or want a meal. And they're open until 2am every day, which is pretty rare in Lake O.
