Good to know

Is it worth going out of your way for?: It’s a downtown benchmark for the Irish pub format. If you want a proper pint in a lively, authentic-feeling room with nightly entertainment, it’s a reliable destination. It’s not a cocktail bar or a fine-dining spot.
Who is it for?: Regulars, after-work crowds, groups of friends, and anyone seeking a straightforward, social drinking experience with live music or trivia. It’s also approachable for solo visitors who don’t mind striking up a conversation.
What should you order?: Prioritize the draughts. A well-pulled pint of Guinness is the classic test. Ask the bartender what’s pouring well and what the regulars favor. The craft here is in the consistency of the pour and the service, not a complex cocktail menu.
How do you get a table?: It’s walk-in friendly. The room is designed for a casual, come-as-you-are pace. For large groups or to inquire about booking the back bar for a private event, it’s best to call ahead.
Anything to know before you go?: It’s open daily from 11:30 AM to 1 AM, with live entertainment nightly. Dress is casual. The atmosphere is energetic, especially on weekends when the bar can get two-deep. This is a place to settle in, not to rush.
