Is it bad that I have never eaten the food here? Given that fact, my review is based solely on the atmosphere, the beer, and the service. Should I ever have occasion to try the food, I will make certain to do an update.
The atmosphere: Typical sports bar full of the stereotypical patrons. You've got plenty of young girls that get more and more tipsy as the evening goes on, and you've got guys in polo shirts who are there to prey on those girls as they become less and less concerned with appearances. You can tell that many of them are regulars and the place is casual enough that I can see how it would be easy to become a regular.
The beer: Great beer selection with $2 drafts on Tuesdays. You read that correctly. All pints are two bucks on Tuesdays! You can't go to a bar and get a can of PBR for that cheap anymore!
The service: At the bar, very good! Especially considering that the noise level is so high that they practically need to lean over the bar to hear your order.
As a whole: It's hard to beat that Tuesday special. If we find ourselves in Birkdale on a Tuesday, we will definitely drop by but I can't see us choosing Fox and Hound Birkdale as a destination.
