This was my first time at Flannigans and I was not impressed.
First off, the decor was not what you would expect for an Irish Pub. The ceilings are high and it feels more like a bistro than a pub. Our waitress was kind of snotty. We had a party of 12 so there was a lot of talking among us but if she came up to the table and we didn't stop talking she would glare. She was also very rude when it came to ordering. She would either just look at you or ask "you?" Also, I ordered the fish and chips which comes with cole slaw and asked for no cole slaw. I was told that it was a very small portion so there was no point in taking it off.
The food was... ok. We started out with the onion rings and mac and cheese bites. The onion rings weren't anything special but the sauce it came with tasted pretty bad. The mac and cheese bites were good but they tasted a lot like Kraft brand. The menu is small so most people at the table got either the Guinness burger, fish and chips, Shepard's pie or bangers and mash. I had the fish and chips and the fries were hard and cold and the fish was very greasy. I understand it's fried but it seemed excessive compared to other fish and chips I've had. My boyfriend's burger was over cooked (asked for it medium rare and it was well done) and his fries were cold as well. The bangers were small and the mash had no flavor whatsoever. I didn't taste the Shepard's pie but I was told it was bland as well.
Overall, the food is greasy, overcooked or cold. I will not be returning anytime soon.
