Love it or hate it, Paddy Kellys is now my go to bar. Â If I couldn't walk here in under 10 minutes, I probably wouldn't like it as much, to be quite honest. Â But hey, it is what it is... Before about 10, and even earlier (I'm saying like open to 7 here) the crowd is loud, drunk, obnoxious, dirty old men. Â I have to be honest, it is hard to feel comfortable as a smaller sized female in a place like that. Â They make very vulgar comments to and about the female bartenders and are just generally loud, opinionated men. Â Whatever... I'm not typically there at that time, so I guess it doesn't matter. Â When the djs start playing, especially on the weekend, it can get packed. Â Lots of drunk girls dancing and guys leering. Â I go with my boyfriend and friends, and I have to say the best part about this place is going in the back area and straight up people watching... I have seen some pretty funny stuff in this place! Â Anyways, most of the bartenders are really nice and friendly, though my favorite employee is the bouncer/after 10 id checker at the door. Â Always a little embarrassing to see him scan your id and see how recent your last visit was! Â Oh yes, and $1.50 draft Rolling Rocks... don't mind if I do!!!!!
Review Source:great food and great music. every night there is something to do.
bar pong on Mondays, family feud style trivia on Tuesdays(free to play and half price apps) karaoke on Wednesdays, college nights Thursdays(with a live dj) , doll house djs on Fridays, a live dj on saturday and reggae nights on Sunday(sometimes they even have a live reggae band) and very competitive prices.
Paddy Kelly's is a great neighborhood bar and restaurant located in downtown Peabody serving great food, a wide variety of drinks and entertainment every night of the week. You can go for a nice dinner and some drinks in the earlier part of the evening or put on your dancing shoes and drink it up later on in the night. It definitely gets packed after 11:00pm with the DJ spinning great music until about 1:30am! The bartenders and owners are VERY nice and always accommodating to everyone!
They have a large selection of beers on tap and there's always a daily drink special (like the gigantic fish bowls!) You must try their amazing steak tips, cheesesteak sub with grilled peppers and onions, delicious made-from-scratch house dressing on a variety of fresh salads, and build your own quesadillas!
Go to Paddy Kelly's once and you'll want to return again and again!
I've been going to this place through it many incarnations over the years and I have to say Adam and Dave have done well as the current owners of this place. New HD TVs everywhere, good made to order food(they'll make anything you like if they have the ingredients) I can relax after work with a few beers before the 20-something crowd appears for the DJ at 9.
A few recommendations:

$5 build your own pizza
Rib Eye steak special
If you are in the area and are looking for a small pub to have a few beers and catch the Sox or Pats, this is the place to be.
When I first decided I was going to review Paddy Smellys I was going to give it 3 stars. Â I tried to think of what was bad about my experiences there (and there have been many) and could come up with a few things. Â The music is usually lousy and you can't avoid some of the Peabody yah-dudes. Â That isn't a good basis for a review though. Â I decided that how great the great stuff is out weighs how bad the bad things are.
  What Paddy Kelly's is is a bar in my hometown that has dollar drafts, and Caribbean Queen on karaoke.  The bathroom is cramped but I'm not there to hang out in the bathroom.  There are cheap drinks, Billy Ocean, and its in Peabody.  This glass is half full.  10 stars.
I think I just might be a yuppie from Connecticut.
Paddy's started out as a divey Irish pub full of locals grabbing a late dinner before the kitchen closed. But come 10 o'clock on a Friday night, the classic rock is replaced by the DJ's booming hip hop, strobe lights come on, and a whole sect of 20 somethings start piling in. "Is this music for the right demographic?" I asked. Apparently, I don't get out much since after a scan of the crowd of orange tanned girls in skintight jeans who straighten their already straight hair and pale young men in over-sized graphic sweatshirts, hoods over their buzzed heads, and enormous fake diamond studs in their ears, I got the answer - "Uh, yeah...it is."
Oooohhhhh.
The ladies room is the size of a closet with a single stall, yet the girls like to go in packs of seven with half of them in the stall and the other half waiting outside. Be thankful if you can even make your way to the sink. The guys dance but lose their balance when they get into those brother hugs and fall into our table. The little drunk guy of the group got a little too excited - he came over, told us he loved us, and slapped us with a $20 to buy a round on him. We returned his money, while his friends dragged him out. Fun.
So, why was I there? My friends are locals to Peabody and they promised us $1 Coors light drafts. Not too shabby, until you taste it and remember how bad Coors Light tastes. (If I were smart, I would have followed my husband's lead and milked a couple of black and tans.) But the place is a bargain since we had a full night of drinking, and between the four of us our bill was $27 (including the black and tans.) I was told they also have wings for ten cents apiece - I can't attest if they're any good, but you can grab a not-so-healthy dinner of wings and beer on a very small budget.
But, it's probably best to go before night falls.
