Shamrock Irish Pub

Nice place to visit. heard it was worse before. They have TV's but only show game highlights. Nothing live. I would go more often if they show live sports.

Not a huge bar fly, but this place is cool when there's a DJ.  It's also nice for a quick drink, even though the bartenders are not consistent.  One pours weak drinks and another will pour just right.  The drinks are a bit pricey too, especially considering that they're stingy with the alkie-hall.  If my pool playing skills were up to par I'd probably visit more often, as it is close to home.

This place is typical dive bar.  I don't notice anything particularly Irish about it.  So if you're looking for an Irish pub, its better to look elsewhere.  That being said its the cheapest drinks I've come across on Alameda ($8 PBR pitchers) and has pool tables, a jukebox and a pretty normal crowd.  One complaint is there seems to be a lot of turn over with the bartenders and some don't really seem experienced and/or friendly.
