On a warm day wind your way up stairs to upstairs bar with outside patio . Just a few seats, great vantage onto King Street and the hustle and bustle of Old Town .
Outstanding food, drinks, and service. Highly recommend Irish Egg Rolls , the Bangers & Mash , Shepherd’s Pie , Fish & Chips , & more!
The Irish egg roles is a cool spin on corned beef and cabbage . The wonton wrap and the dubliner cheddar cheese taste awesome with the corned beef and cabbage .
Great service, fun atmosphere , hit or miss food with certain items. Appears that burgers turn out consistently well , but not so much for other entrees such as the chicken casserole and fish & chips .
Best cheese platter i 've tried in the US so far.. I like the interior and sink in the restroom ;)
Lots of seating, including a little outdoor patio upstairs that's nice for brunch . Since it's an Irish pub , it's good to go with the full Irish breakfast
Great service - attentive, fast and with a smile. Nice rooftop patio . Tasty burger and ok pancakes - what we needed to power us back to DC via bike .
The prime rib sliders were aiight. The muscles on the other hand were faaaaaantastic. Paul was our server/bartender. Awesome guy. And omg a wonderful Irish whiskey selection .
Scotch eggs , bangers and mash and Irish egg rolls are a must. They're excellent.
Love this pub but stick to the Irish food (which is good).There's a reason Dublin isn't famous for nachos .
Ask for the fire place table very cool... lots of beer to choose from. And guiness of course.
Open fire place - great old world charm. Great variety of seasonal beers .
How can an Irish Pub run out of corned beef ??? Food was good-not great but good! Waiter was personable and nice.
Live traditional music on Monday evenings next to the main fireplace ! (Good tunes - not the hokey stuff.)
A good portion of the bar 's adornments comes directly from Ireland! Owners had parts of buildings shipped to VA.
Fun atmosphere and good service . Seems like standard pub fare rolls out consistently well , such as burgers . The other food was hit or miss, but I'd still return.
The Irish Egg Rolls are to die for!! So good. Corned beef , cheddar , cabbage , rolled and fried together. Oh ma gawd!!
From PBR "tall boys" to Jameson 15 year! All around great place on any budget
Interesting take on Corned Beef and Cabbage . Really enjoyed it
Fabulous fries ! Also, great place for Kilkenny beer .
Irish Cheesesteak was good! Sweet potato fries are a must!
Shepherd’s pie was very good .. Reuben was also good ... Onion rings not so good - sort of burned. Music was decent but way too loud ! Couldn’t hear the people sitting next to me ...
Irish Cheesesteak was yummy, order it with their sweet potatoes fries ;)
I learned that "snake bites" are an American creation, but, they make great ones! Make sure to order it "dark."
Great bread pudding . Decent beer selection . Very cozy atmosphere .
Love the bars . Great atmosphere
I paid $25 for a 12oz ribeye that I ordered medium, but it came welldone in the middle and med rare on the edges. Overall not bad but expected better for the price and the (somewhat) limited menu.
Ask for the spicy mustard with the scotch eggs
Guinness Cheeseburger is amazing. Plus they have "Build your own Smores "
Shepards Pie is a 10!!! And huge :)
The corned beef and cabbage with mashed potatoes were awesome!!
Listen to what others are saying.....the cheddar burger was absolutely amazing!
Excellent sweet potato waffle fries
Want to feel like you're at Cheers. This is the place.
Great service! Really good fries ! :)
Great happy hour ! Cheap drinks
Good hot shrimp .
Fish , chips , and Smithwicks... If you like pubs it doesn't get much better than this.
S'mores are fun to share for dessert ! The blueberry bread pudding was also amaaaazing.
Try the fried bangers and Guiness Cheeseburger . The bangers are not always on the menu. Ask for the.
The buffalo chicken salad is great!
The pub has 4 fireplaces and 6 Nations Rugby Championship matches on the TVs . Brilliant.
Guinness cheese burger was outstanding! Served on a bed of mash and gravy .
Give serious consideration to the pork Wings
They have Kilkenny beer ... enough said
Great Irish food .
Love the fireplace table. Very very Irish
Get a scotch and a bread pudding for a late night treat.
Really good!!!!!! Liked a lot!
legit! try the Guinness burger !
Great beer selection and wonderful mussels. Also, try their Crab Fritters. - Scott L.
Big Megg and Buffalo are my favorites. Now they have a lunch special, Board walk fries and slaw for additional 3$ - Ganesh
Oysters are fantastic - so says my wife. Draft beer selection is very solid. - Brian Soper
Down by the waterfront, you can’t beat this great airy restaurant and bar carved out of an old warehouse. Great small plates as well as delicious main dishes. - Washington Post
Seafood stew- what a delicious & cheap idea for a meal!! So much seafood in here- it's more than just an appetizer! - Donna
