Mooneys' Public House

No Bang for Your Buck! My boyfriend and I just left Mooneys. We are locals and try to support local businesses as often as possible, which is every day! So we decided to try it out for St. Patrick's Day. The place had a nice crowd. The waitstaff was very friendly and efficient and the place was clean, however I have to agree with the last reviewer about the NO CREDIT CARD situation. Not only are they saving money not taking cards, they also make money by owning the ATM machine in the corner of the bar that they direct customers to only after it comes time to pay. I find a local business that relies on local patrons to stay alive to not accept credit cards AND supply a FEE BASED ATM to be bordering on exploitation. Our second complaint is the food...while the food is your typical tasty bar and grill food, it's ridiculously stingy in portion size. As we live right around the corner we *would* have come here at least once a week, especially in the summer when we could walk over, but to have just drinks, well we might as well save our dollar.

Local pub, good for a drink when you want to walk to the bar.  The outdoor seating in the back is beautiful in the summer time.  Food isn't all that bad either.  The toughest thing to get past in this place sometimes are the people that hang out there.

We went to this bar this past Saturday for karaoke night.  The bar looks nice and the bathrooms are clean.  We got there early to eat before the karaoke festivities, but the dining room appeared to be closed. We got a table by the bar and ordered from the bar instead.  We both got cheeseburgers and fries.  The burger was ok-they seemed to have forgotten the seasoning, though.  

The bartenders were nice, but I had a problem with one of the employees-I believe she was the food runner.  I was standing at the bar waiting for a beer, and she rudely tapped me on the shoulder and told me to move over so she could get to the bar.  I did as she asked, but then she literally bumped right into me again and rudely asked me to move over again. There was no room for me to move over, unless she wanted me to sit in a lady's lap.  For those who know me-I'm a very petite person and I don't take up much room, so I'm not sure why she had to barge into me like I was taking up the whole entire bar.  Anyway- in the end, we had dinner, and had 5 beers each and our bill was right around $55.  It's a decent place for the area.
