One of my absolute favorite pubs around Charlotte. Quaint and impossibly Irish. I frequent here often for a number of reasons:
#1: Beer. Good selection and modestly priced. Of course there are only a handful of tap, but they definitely stock some good non-commercial and local brews.
#2: Great food. I would rate it a 9 out of 10 for bar food. Potato cakes were a must for a long time but I feel they've skimped on the portion sizes lately. Love the wings, especially with the Jameson glaze! Decent burgers and chicken sandwiches. Word to the wise- don't ever order pizza from ANY Irish pub, especially if you're like me.. typical NY pizza snob.
#3: Atmosphere: Your typical Irish pub. Again, very quaint. Upstairs, downstairs, and outdoors. You can order from the bars on both levels. Low-lighted. Outside is key weather-permitting. TV's and games set up.
#4: Vicinity to uptown. Just outside the city in Southend, "usually" easy to get to.
#5: Events. Three words- JAMESON. WHISKEY. DINNERS. There's also live music on weekends and one of the best places to be for St. Patty's and the World Cup.
#6: Staff. I purposely saved this for last. The staff here is great. Friendly and always quick to take your order. I've never had bad service, let alone less than perfect service here.
Still taking those Yelp app coupons...
