| - I stopped in here for a few pints and some spinach cheese dip before a game with my girlfriend.
It is surprisingly nice inside. A lot of dark wood, lots of televisions, nice banquettes, and a giant tree! The mens' bathroom are in the basement, which is a pain in the ass especially when under the influence of a few drinks as stairs can mean death.
The waitstaff is very nice and easy to talk to. They also have a lot of good tips on great local spots. Prices for pints of Guinness are typical and the spinach cheese dip was pretty good. A little zesty, slightly spicy, and not too cheesy, it is one of the better spinach cheese dips I've had but be careful as it is damn hot! The waitress warned us about the temperature but I'm stubborn and was hungry so I dived right in, maybe next time I will listen to her... maybe. What I liked about the dip was that we were given to choice of whether to have it with all pita bread, all nacho chips, or half and half. I love toasted and seasoned pita bread so it was an easy choice for me.
Overall, it is a good place to have a few pints and some bar food. They have daily food specials, Mondays are 10cent wings, as advertised on every wall, if you are up for some cheap food I would think Monday is the day to go. I would come back here again but nothing about this place really sticks out in my had as being better than any other Irish pub.
