    No stars. Zero. Zilch. Nada. (Yelp made me click 1) The place is a waste of space, not to mention Riverfront and finely-honed wood. The server couldn't even be bothered to have attitude; the menu didn't even include all six pitiful selections; the owners hadn't even considered providing wifi (or if they had, it was "a long time ago" according to the eaves-dropping bartender). Be warned, this is not the Waxys as seen on site, let alone as promised way back when. It is a joke plastered atop a very sad case of why bother at all. Too bad too.

    A group of pals and I ended up at this gleaming example of river-adjacent excellence to watch Game 7 of the NBA Finals. We were pleasantly surprised to see that it was not too crowded. Perhaps those present were people that, much like us, could be lumped into a group known as "none the wiser".

    Upon arrival, it was nearly impossible to find a server/host/employee of the restaurant. I was eventually told by a kind soul that we could seat ourselves. This person may or may not have actually worked for the restaurant. Upon finding a pair of lost souls on Waxy's payroll, they gave my friend and I dissenting information in regards to which tables were reserved. This caused a bit of confusion which we were able to clear up without their help. We eventually settled on a booth. We asked our server, who graced us with his presence in spectacularly nonchalant fashion, if we could pull up chairs for some friends arriving later. He suggested that we simply wait for the group at a larger, prime-location table to leave, and then we could have their table. He assured us they would leave before tip off. As you can probably imagine, they didn't. Maybe they wanted to watch the most important game in Miami Heat history. Well, not to be outdone by one silly blunder, our Mensa candidate server also promised that same table to another group. What a delightful surprise. Again, this could have caused an issue had we not resolved it among ourselves and all not been so excited to see the Heat.

    With that ordeal more less behind us, we were ready to order.

    The menu was a piece of paper with a few options printed on it. It looked as if it was fresh off their refurbished dot-matrix printer. I suppose it was a tongue in cheek way of letting the guests know what type of quality to expect. Bravo, Waxy's. Well done.

    The service was glacially slow. Actually, scratch that. If this guy was an iceberg, he would never actually start melting despite all the other ice caps around him doing so. Despite not being too crowded, and it being a major sporting event, the place seemed unprepared (or unwilling) to provide prompt service. The server accused us of using two tables (the one we were at and the one we were trying to secure in vain), which is a really smart thing to do to people that are supposed to give you money.

    The group that did not leave the table was very rude to us when we tried to explain our scenario. This was not entirely surprising. A very catty woman explained that she was friends with the manager. The server also passed along this information to us, perhaps to help me understand that his hands were proverbially tied. He was under the impression that this factoid interested me in the slightest. It didn't. After all this, I'm shocked the restaurant wasn't as vacant as the stare he gave us all night.

    But anyway...we were there to see the Heat! Alas, we also experienced quite a bit of it. The place was sweltering. Beyond uncomfortable. Our entire table was sweating. I couldn't imagine what hilarious excuse we'd be given if we asked why it was so hot, so I decided to save myself the grief and not ask.

    People came to watch the game. So naturally one of the TV's had a cute "LG" logo bouncing around with a "No Signal" message. Something for everyone, I guess.

    After we had some chicken wings (very good, but very small) we also tried ordering sliders, cheese fries and quesadillas. I want you to guess how many of these items they were out of. (Hint: All of them). Awesome.

    After this experience, the server obviously knew that we were happy, satisfied patrons. Perceptive young man, this artisan of culinary service. So he took it upon himself to include 18% gratuity to our check. We were a party of 5, and I am used to parties of 6+ being charged automatic gratuity. I could be wrong on this one, though. You're not gonna believe this, but the awesome, aforementioned professionally printed menu made no mention of automatic gratuity. This guy was wearing a #6 Heat jersey, and true to form, he is easily the LeBron James of shitty service.

    Alas, the Heat took home the championship, made everyone happy and made the night memorable despite Waxy's litany of shortcomings. The only reason this place gets two stars is because the Heat took the title that night. And when it takes a major sport championship to boost you up to two stars, you know you suck.

    Always liked this place, it has a good Irish Pub vibe with the woodwork inside. Nice river/downtown view from the outside seating area. Came here for a Heat playoff game on a Saturday night and was surprised we were able to get not only seats for seven people but a table with a TV in front of it midway through the 1st quarter. Only downside was how many drinks they were out of on a not so packed Saturday night. They were out of yuengling drafts, jack daniels, and something else I forgot. It was weird because when the bartender said they were out of jack for a jack and coke she said she had black label instead and just made the drink and served it without waiting for a reply.

    last time I came here was for St. paddy's day and I had the greatest time. The bartenders were high energy and awesome people that served me the best irish car bombs I've ever had, after only two I walked out here feeling pretty good and buzzed. Can't wait to return because this place ROCKS!

    Happy Hour Fridays is ladies night, after 9pm...so its pretty much dead till 9 pm and then it livens up. Drinks are really good and so is the food! As others mentioned, it gets packed but not annoyingly packed. Music is OK to be honest...they would definitely be more popping if they had a better/ or a resident DJ there mixing old and with the new...bc to be honest i left bc the music got horrible...and I was pretty drunk lol..it was one of those like , are they really playing this? kind of awful playlists. It's a shame bc this place could be more happening...crowds wouldn't be so come and go... Nice outside patio, river view though :) just suggestions!

    It was a good time.  It was not too crowded, it is a very big venue, which made it easy to navigate. Good old school music. I went late on a Friday evening.

    Friday night is ladies night, and this is Miami. How I miss this place. Awesome river location, crowded enough to be fun, but not too much to be annoying. Friendly service, stiff drinks. Cold beer and warm women. What else can a single guy ask for? Well.. in public anyway :D

    The food was awesome, the service was awesome, the view was awesome. Everything here was pretty much perfect except for the parking situation. I came here after finnegins was closed (at 10 pm, wtf??) and I'm glad I did because this place changed my mans view if Miami; so instead of thinking that Miami is comprised of douchey, tight pant wearing losers, now he thinks there's an actual laid back crowd that likes to get shitty by the water. In a good way. Yay!

    Ladies drink free until 11pm on Fridays makes for a very Fun start to the weekend

    I've been here a couple of times and there's not much to complain about except it's pricey but I guess that's to be expected given their location.

    The last time we went, the place was crowded as usual with 20-30 something year olds and the music was great. The bartenders can get a little snarky on ladies night which is on Friday nights.. it wasn't appreciated but I understand where they're coming from. If they see a guy drinking a drink that is supposed to be of the ladies night special, they'll take the drink away from the guy- I get it but it still doesn't sit well with me. Also ladies you are only allowed to have one drink and do not plan on ordering two at the same time!

    The crowd is always lively and though I've never had the food here, their selection of beer and drinks is definitely improving.

    This was my first time coming here, my friends have been here before so since i've been tired of partying in the same spots, I tried it out. The location is pretty decent, you're right next to the Miami River and infront of downtown miami. So you're surrounded by the river and the beautiful buildings. Parking is first come first serve, so good luck trying to find parking, they do however have Valet parking for about $10.00 ... The drinks are pretty decent its about $8 - $10 depending on what you order, the atmosphere is pretty decent, it's a bit crazy and packed but other than that it was alright. There is no air conditioning either so it gets pretty hot.

    I do recommend this place. FYI: They do have a dress code, I came in really crappy with my heat jersey since it was the heat playing, but they let me pass since it was my first time. No sandals and shorts.

    If it looks like an irish pub, smells like an irish pub and serves drinks like an irish pub....what is it?

    It's probably Waxy O' Connors!

    It is walking distance from tobacco road and though it looks 100 times better it costs the same amount!

    Drink, play pool and go home. Great choice to kick off a weekend.

    After our cruise on the 50' catamaran through Play Time Water Sports, the crew said that we could have a complimentary drink and hot food at Waxy's.  Waxy's is another typical bar scene with ear thumping loud music so penetrating that I couldn't hear myself think.  One of the party members got a free drink and said it was a "rum runner" and not very good.  It was jammed packed in the place and we couldn't find the complimentary hot food and decided that we would rather pay to eat somewhere else than to get free food here.  What does that tell you?

    Judging by other reviews of Waxy's, I am not alone in my review.

    This place has no AC!!!

    Like, how do you expect to lure in a crowd of horny 20-something year olds and not have AC for all these Miami girl's weave to not frizz.

    Came here because of an invite, free drinks until 11, which was fine. I didn't get a buzz at all, super weak drinks. Cheap cups and I even witnessed a fight.

    "Toto, are we still in Brickell?"

    This place will never see my face again, thank God everything was free!

    Not a bad place to be on a Friday night. Large crowd. Lots of TVs showing sports. Lady's drink for free Friday nights till 11 (i think it's from 9-11). Got their Dirty Shirley and was delicious. ONly thing I can complain about is the smoking that takes place outside. I probably smelled like a chimney after leaving the place.

    What can I say...to begin with the parking was terrible, the valet staff that was dealing with the parking was either slow or under staffed, ended up parking 4 blocks away and walking in order to get there. Once we arrived we had to deal with a doorman, like is was walking into a club, which in itself was also surprising. We had gone to celebrate a friends birthday and the waiter for the table came by and everyone order their drinks. He came back 30 mins later and didn't have my drink, but he clearly remembered that I ordered something because he told me he would be right back with it, never happened.
    The bar inside was a hassle to get to, the place was over packed and the staff at the bar was taking for ever to get drinks out, had to wait 20 mins for a drink....honestly can't say much more, besides sounding like I'm complaining, but I wouldn't go back.

    Ah jeez, where do I start?  It was extremely crowded the Friday night I came here for a friend's b-day.  The outdoor makeshift bar only accepted cash, the indoor bar was difficult to get to.  There was no cocktail waitstaff.  You HAD to go to the bar for a drink.  The crowd was less than desirable.  They had a doorman selecting people to come in?!?!?!  Hello this is Waxy's not LIV!!!  What a joke.  The bathroom had an attendant but looked like no one had cleaned it in weeks!  Oh yeah, and parking was horrendous.  Yuck!

    I went here two Saturdays ago and I have to say that I was highly disappointed. Since there were so many people there they had to have a few extra bars outside. Um, hello, it's 2011, cash only -- really isn't there an ap for that problem?

    And then it's Saturday people....College football is only played 15 weeks out of the 52 so why can't you spare one TV for those people who actually who want to watch it.

    The girls behind the bar were rude and unfriendly.

    Thoughts on this place --- never going back again and can't wait to tell people about this experience.

    Rule #1 - Don't arrive hungry!  Our waitress took about 15 minutes to come to the table, 10 to bring drinks and oh about 40 minutes between drinks and food.  I was ready to eat the napkins. And yup, when the food arrived, it was cold. Boo.

    Rule #2 - Bring darts!!! They have a dart board in the back next to the restrooms.  Score!

    Other than that - its right on the river, which makes for a great atmosphere.  We may have hit them up on an off night, it was pretty empty for a Saturday night.  I would definitely come again with a group of good friends, but not if I want a good meal.  ;-)

    Waxy's on the river is the closest bar to my apartment, but I don't go there very often..anymore. I would frequent Waxy's more in the past but I typically had bad experiences with the servers.  It is hard to get servers attention, especially if you sit outside.  Even when it's slow (oddly enough, more often when it is slow) you are likely to be ignored on the patio.  

    My boyfriend and I like to start our night out with irish car bombs and one thing we don't like about Waxy's is that they serve the guiness in a plastic cup.  Booo

    My new favorite night at Waxy's is Friday night, ladies night from 9 pm to 10 pm.  Free beers and well drinks.

    As far as the food goes, I like the reuben sandwich and the hand-cut fries, but not the calamari.  For around $10 you get about 10 pieces of calamari.
    IMO, Waxy's could increase its revenues and clientele by offering better service. This little detail could help set them apart from many other bars in the area, and get more of my business.

    I have been to Waxy's a few times now and I think it's appropriate to rate this place a 4 star.

    They have great appetizers from the calamari, to the quesadilla and don't even get me started on that spinach dip. I haven't had the regular food but coming here to hang out with friends is a lot of fun. Drinks are reasonable (for the downtown area), appetizers are great and in the back they even have a domino's table. (Music is good too). The outside is nice to sit during a cool night in Miami. If you live near by you can even walk, Valet or street parking if you have to drive. All in all, I think this place is great.

    I love sports bars, I love sports bar food, I love beer, I love pretty places. Therefore, I love Waxy's on the river!

    So I showed up there early to watch the Heat game. The place itself was so nice. Everything looked clean and elegant. They had a bunch of outside seating with the view of the river. It was a little chilly so my party and I decided to sit inside.

    We got one of the best tables that was located in the middle surrounded by booths and the bar. We had an awesome front row seat view of one of their huge flat screens, which later turned out to be not so great because people started crowding us. I was a little jealous because the bar seats had backs to them and our table had stools with no backs. Call me a crybaby, but I have back problems boo hoo hoo.

    We enjoyed $10 pitchers of Miller Lite. They also had $12 buckets of Miller Lite or Coors. We also ordered two appetizers, one was the conch fritters and the other was the calamari. Each of those was about $10 or under. Plus unless you were lucky and found meter parking, the easiest was to park in vallet for $7. My point is that it is reasonable but not cheap so if you go, know that each person should be spending about $25 or so. I think the place makes up for the slightly higher price, as I already stated its uber nice.

    Speaking of food, the conch fritters were amaze-balls, literally. They were cooked perfectly and with adding lots of lemon, they were to die for. The sauce that came with them was like a honey mustardy-ish type sauce which was also divine. The calamari was not on my top spot. It tasted like other food, which would mean the oil was old or used for something else or they cooked it too long. Nevertheless, I didn't mind. It still tasted better than the chewy calamari from Area 31 (hater, rawr!)

    Our server Mindy was on top of what she was doing and very friendly. She got busy towards the end of the night but still managed to keep us happy. My favorite quality of this place is that it is a true sports bar. They took off the music and let everyone actually hear the Heat game, rather than just watch it in silence. I think it takes away from the epicness of a  game if you can't hear the commentators and the buzzing (errrrrrr) and the crowd CHEERS@! I will definitely be coming here very often now and ordering two conch fritter appetizers lol. Freaking loved it!

    Cool place to check out and watch a game. This was about my third time here but this time we decided to try some food as well. We sat inside but I really enjoy the outside as it overlooks the river and is fun to chill with some nice views. I felt like we were in Hooter's though because of the outfits the young girl's wear. Do not get me wrong, they are cute, but I did not quite get the attire in an Irish sports bar.

    So we had a sweet waitress, she was nice, disappeared quite often and we had to fin for ourselves a few times but she was OK. I ordered a fish sandwich, mahi-mahi blackened with fries. Hubby ordered the Sheppard's pie. My sandwich was good but wow hubby's Sheppard pie was outstanding. So good, I could not help digging in. This is not something I would typically order as it is very filling and heavy but whew I could not help myself. Highly recommend checking it out.

    We watched some football, ate, drank, and relaxed. Not a bad place to just hang out. Prices are average for the area.

    First off, parking is a pain. Valet... no thank you. I recommend parking by transit lounge or under the metro. They have meters there.

    Went here to watch the UM-Pitt football game and it was too packed. They double booked the place with the UM alumni association and the Pink Heals tour, so there was absolutely nowhere to sit.

    The service was mediocre at best. I had to run down the waitress on a bum ankle just to order a drink. My drink came out and it was in a tall skinny glass that I finished in two sips. I swear it was smaller than a vial. The food was not great and again I will not pay $9 for generic mac and cheese.

    Ambiance was lacking. It was too loud. The music was blasting my ears. The one nice thing it is on the river and you can stroll to other places in Mary Brickell if Waxy is not your cup of tea.

    Lame.  Goddamn can you please teach the bartenders how to layer a black and tan.  They were close but not perfect.  Which I would expect in a place called O'Connors.

    Food?  Okay.  Typical frozen type bar fare.  Although I thought the calamari was decent.

    Service was awful.  I'm not sure why they put those dividers up on the bar.  It really makes it difficult to get the 'keeps attention and for them to survey their bar and see who needs what.  Poor execution.  Moved to a table outside and service was even worse.

    WTF do I need a guy in a tuxedo in the bathroom for?  I'm in a so-called pub.  What's he supposed to do?  Hold my hair as I puke?  Give me a feeking break.  Thanks for the paper towel dude.  I'm not giving you a dime.  I didn't ask for your service.

    This place is exactly what is wrong with many places in Miami.  Lots of potential, good technology. and hype but low quality service and mediocre food.  The Hubbs and I came here for Sunday football because we heard there were lots of t.v's with every game on.  

    We found our way via metro mover and indeed they had lots of t.v.'s.  The hostess tried to get our game on the t.v. closest to us (after she told us to sit where ever we saw a free t.v.) but then some big guy came over and said we had to sit somewhere else.  Whatever, we found plenty of seating as the place was half empty.  Is that a good sign???    

    We settled in and ordered some beers and hot wings.  The beer was good and the hot wings were decent.  Next we had their $12 beer bucket (5 coors light or miller light bottles) and a bacon, cheese burger with fires.  The beer bucket was fine but the burger was bland and the fries sucked.  They were those Irish fried potato roots - ugh!  

    Service was okay, the place was not as clean as it could be, and the overall mood was dull.  I loved that we found seating and a big t.v. with our game on right away but I am dreading having to eat another morsel there.

    I'm probably the only tourist that visits Miami and demands to go to an Irish pub. That's just how I roll I guess. Well, I wasn't disappointed. The bar tenders were authentic and that was enough for me. I love being handed a Guinness or a Jameson with the appropriate accent attached. It just feels right to me.
    So, if you're visiting Miami, and you want to escape it for a bit, Waxxy is definitely the spot for you

    I welcome any new venue in Miami that will show live soccer.  Being that Waxy's is an Irish-themed bar, they're obliged to take on that responsibility.

    The bar is expanisve and long and is filled with the dark wood that you come to expect in an Irish Bar.

    Often times they feature bands.  One of my favorites is a U2 cover band.  Check their listings to see when they're playing.  Unfortunately the area that they place the bands is a makeshift stage that is obstructed by a disableld person lift and some columns.  Such a shame.  They need to come up with a better option for their live acts.

    Take advantage of their outdoor patio thats right on the river.  It's perfect for relaxing and enjoying a cold brew w/friends.  Expect to pay South Beach prices for your pints though.

    Come for the scenery, stay for the futbol and cold pints!

    ** Oh and the parking SUX.  Who wants to come to have to valet their car when going to an Irish bar?  Molly and Shaemus would turn over in their grave !  : p **

    Waxy Parties like the Irish with Miami Flair!

    I love to come to Waxy's for happy hour on Fridays. The vibe is great and the beer selection is awesome. Chimay's on draft at happy hour prices, can't beat that! The food is pretty good too. Love their dolphin fingers and avocado grilled chicken sandwich.

    The outside sitting area overlooking the Miami River is spectacular. Great place to relax and unwind from the week. Night time gets pretty loud with a DJ in house. Good times!!

    This will definitely be one of my top picks for St. Patty's Day celebrating! Now all I need is some green beer!

    Great place to spend a lazy Saturday or Sunday afternoon with friends, munching on bar food, catching the game and gazing out at the majestic Miami River.

    The outside patio area offers various tables and Giant TV screens. I've never been when it's crowded during the day and that's part of the appeal for me.  The food is ok and the menu offers traditional pub fare as well as more sophisticated options like flat bread pizza.

    During happy hour, the mix of people can be entertaining.  I'm a sucker for a bar that has dark wooden furniture and serves guiness and chimary like this place.

    With lots of square footage, tv screens and pool tables, this place is a good venue for meeting groups of friends.

    I went back for the Grand opening and met some yelpers along the way. The atmosphere was crazy!
    So many people came it was packed both inside and outside.

    There was a live band who played a tribute to U2 ... TERRIFIC and the lead singer looked like Bono!!

    The waiters were clearly overwhelmed and we waited quite a bit to order our drinks and get silverware...

    Still love Waxy's, great decoration and great food. I still am in love with the fried calamari and also discovered the chicken wings...yummy!

    The only Waxy's I had been to was the one on the beach. This location is right in the Brickell area and located right next to the water. Very nice.

    This location also has a better selection of beer: Chimay, Sam Adams Octoberfest, Brooklyn Lager, etc. However, it's a bit costly at $7 a beer. The food was ok. A bit costly as well. I had the chicken avocado club sandwich, which was tasty. Their fries are also pretty good and the chicken tenders were ok.

    The best thing about this place is the location, no doubt about it. The service could use some help.

    This isn't a destination, it's a start or a beginning but not where you should spend an entire night out.

    Let's begin with the most basic : parking
    Parking around this neighborhood (West Brickell, yeah I kinda made it up, so?) is challenging. You can of course always valet or if you live in Dowtown/Brickell walk, cab, or Metromover over.

    This place being on the river gives it extra points as riverfront property is hard to come by in Miami. Once inside you'll note is a pretty bar some might even call it a handsome bar but it lacks a gritty, laugh at yourself humorous, salt of the earth Irish pub feel. The layout doesn't lend itself well to feeling at home, this isn't your simple, neighborhood watering hole although it could be your standard meeting point. It's loud to the point of sometimes being obnoxious. The food is standard but overall average and unimpressive but then again this place isn't a restaurant.

    Still, it's a fine option for a bar crawl, it's better earlier or later to avoid the crowds. Sit outside.

    I can see Waxy's as serving multiple purposes for a good night. I've come here to start the night  and another time to grab some food and end it. And let me tell you, it's such a difference then the Brickell Irish Pub. For starters the service here is great and the crowd is thin for a popular night such as Thursday or Friday. I'm okay with that! They have nice indoor area but what's really nice is the outdoor sitting area that is right on the Miami River and good views of the Miami skyline.

    They have Chimay for $9 and regular draft beers going for $7. Yeah I'm not feeling it either. Do they have a happy hour? That would be nice to find out.

    Went late one evening to celebrate a friend's birthday.  Found street parking a couple blocks away at Transit Lounge but I should have just valet'd.  (I just hate paying for parking!!  Ugh!)

    Service:  We had a great server who was very friendly and attentive to all of our needs.  Sorry I forgot his name but he was very nice.  In fact, from what I remember, the staff seemed very friendly overall.

    Food:  I arrived after everyone had already eaten, so I ordered my food to go.  Got the Waxy's Burger that comes with fries.  We ended up staying a little longer after my food came so I popped the lid on those fries and OH MY WORD, we LOVED the fries!!!  They seemed to be cut fresh, fried and seasoned with salt & pepper.  I really can't remember clearly because they were gone in a flash!  The serving was HUGE - there were about 7 of us and we each ate plenty before the container was empty.  I'd go back just for the fries, they were that good!!!  I ate my burger when I got home and it was pretty good.  Nothing spectacular but it hit the spot.

    Drinks:  Didn't get to taste the drinks, just sipped on the champagne for the party.  I don't even know that it came from Waxy's so I can't comment about it...  Just know that IMHO, you can never go wrong with champagne!  ;-)

    I really enjoyed the atmosphere at Waxy's.  Very Cheers'-ish, or so it felt.  I didn't get to see the great view outside that everyone talks about, since we were there at night.  But walking through the outside tables, I did make a mental note to go back and enjoy the outside soon.  When that happens, I'll be back to update my review.

    Went to Waxy's for some drinks on a friend's birthday and was somewhat unimpressed, and the drink prices didn't help much. I thought we were downtown, not SoBe?

    The place itself is beautiful. The outside area is very nice and you can see boats passing by.

    The crowd was thin on a Friday night, nothing but UM people celebrating a win in an earlier football game.

    I ordered some chicken wings which were scrumptious, but drink prices always get me down. $7 for regular beer, $9 for Chimay.

    I'd still go here over the Brickell Irish Pub any day, though. At least it wasn't as loudly obnoxious and packed as the BIP.

    Called into Waxy O'Connors today (Saturday) for a quick bite and a drink at lunch time.  The place was quiet, but there was still a good atmosphere with the sports games on the TV's and decent music playing.

    Food was the weekend brunch menu - the food tasted good and was reasonable in price.

    Service was great - Ryan was our server who made us feel very welcome and attended to our needs appropriately.

    The downside to this venue is the parking limitations - there are only a few meter spaces on the road or there is Valet parking - but for us locals that live within walking distance its not really an issue - hence still giving it 5*'s

    Compare this to Brickell Irish Pub - both have nice venues but its the people that make it a Pub... Brickell Irish Pub has a snotty SOBE Club attitude (all they need is a velvet rope!), where as Waxy O'connors has a friendly bunch of staff as it should be in any Pub!  

    Keep up the good work Waxy's - we'll be seeing you again soon!

    Awesome place. Great beer list. Great food.

    Seriously, the food is really good. Far beyond pub fare. I had a seared tuna salad which was very good. They also have flatbread pizzas which looked great.

    Tons of TV's to watch a game. And a great spot to sit outside by the river when the weather is nice.

    This place is kind of hidden, so make sure you go there and see how awesome it is. Then tell everyone else.

    Okay, so I live upstairs. How great is that! This spots just opened. The decor is beautiful and so far the ambience has been good. It's not crazy packed. I tried the fish dip and it wasn't like Flannigan's dip, but it was still pretty good. Good selection of beer of course and don't get fooled by the full bar not being on the menu. They certainly do have a full bar.
    All they need is boats to park there, lighting outside and TV's outside. Luckily I heard they were already doing some of that. : )
    Hopefully, the parking situation doesn't get too bad once more people find out about this place. The last thing I want is to be stuck in traffic trying to get in to my building. Love it overall!

    This just may be my new place to watch the Fins kick butt this season, unless, I am at the stadium. The place is laid back, good bar food and beer and cool interior designed and built in Ireland.
    The venue recently opened promises entertainment with live bands two to three times a week. It boasts 11 flat screen TVs for all sporting events and 16 imported and domestic beers on tap plus a wide range of Irish whiskeys and single malt Scotches.
    They also plan on a hangover worthy menu; I have to come back for that.
