After experiencing what non-chain real Irish pubs are like (Pipers, Harp and Fiddle, Flannery's and PJ McIntyre's in Cleveland), I cannot support a "chain"... kind of how I was never a fan of Fado in the past.
My most recent experience here was for a party for a Christening. The food was bland in general, and their chips just are missing something. If you are an Irish Pub, you would think Fish and Chips was something that would be gotten "right"... not here. The menu changes like people change their underwear too. I think every time I have been here it has been very different.
The only thing I think that is a plus about this place is Tuesday pint night... cannot go wrong at 2.50 (but I do not drink beer much so this is hardly a draw), and the patio in the warmer months.
