Mickey Gannon's

Cash only, with extremely non-attentive service. Wings came overcooked, and burger was greasier than McDonalds.

I have been coming here for nearly 20 years now.  I started as a tike coming for burgers and wings with my parents.  Now as an adult I still return on a regular basis for a pint and an order of wings and fries.  The set up is... lets just say a little off.  As you enter the front of the bar you will see an average size bar area with a 3-4 tables of to your left and another tucked in the right corner by the bar.  The odd part will be right in front of you.  There is kind of a small "island."  it is more or less a 12 x 2 lacquered over and a few bar stool to sit on.  You can see one or two groups of people hanging out here.  It is kind of a communal rest while you are waiting for a seat at the bar or a table to open up.  

If you take a turn to your left you will open into another room.  There are several booths spitting the two rooms and as you enter the far room, more tables for your dining pleasure.  Again you will see something out of the ordinary.  And old bar agains the far wall.  Not so strange you may say.  Well this bar has long sense ben abandoned my it's tender, and now serves as a seating area for patrons.  You make take up a chair at either side of the bar.  

Now on to the food.  The wing here is King.  The best in the city by my reckoning.  Cook to the perfect about of crispy without frying it to a crisp.  For company I personally order some french fries with a side of blue cheese for the dipping of these starch delights.  To wash it all down I'll order a Lager pint.

To be specific, for any out of towners reading this.  "Lager" here in The NEPA refers to a Yeingling Lager.  

On to the staff!  They have ben at this a long time, and know how to treat a customer.  The proper way.  If they seem to not be getting your next drink right away, it's because this place gets busy.  And if it isn't, I have been know to look to my left and have a full frosty beverage sitting there without me even knowing it was once emptied.  

For the decor.  It is a nice Irish pub!  Down to the hard wood bar and tables.  There are dozens of figurines on high shelfs.  These figurines are caricatures of celebrities throughout time.  And depending on the holiday at hand, they can be found dressed in a festive manor.  

To wrap this all up.  Mickey Gannon's is on the top of my list, and it should be on yours too!

Excellent wings and BEST burger in the area!
