Editorial Review

This Irish-themed pub flaunts dark, wood-paneling, predictable bar food and a chill, if not a little tedious vibe. If you're lucky and arrive early, you can pile in around the fireplace but it's more likely you'll end up sitting on one of the high-backed chairs oddly pushed up against the wall. Live Irish and American folk bands keep the dudes with receding hairlines coming back to sip a pint or two.
