After enjoying a mead tasting across the street at Apis, my friends and I were hungry and had the choice between "the Italian place or the Irish place". I'm glad we picked the Irish place! We had a blast!
We were there for open mic night and I have to say it had some of the best talent I've ever heard at an open mic night! We sat down at a table and it took a few minutes to get service on the busy night but when we were greeted it was pleasant and we ordered off the menu, which had plenty of bar food options and Irish choices.
My friends got the cod cake sandwich, grilled cheese, fish and chips, and the wings. I had the potato skins and the cock a leekie soup, which was like a chicken and barley soup. Everyone had a great meal.
We had a lot of fun at the bar and it really reminded me of a laid back bar you would find in Ireland. It wasn't kitschy but still had the Irish feel. I would like to return for another open mic night.
