I know I am may be in the minority on this topic but I hate live music at bars and pubs. It is always far too loud. It is especially bad when it is a band attempting to be Irish singing songs from all genres. I would have moved on, but others in the group were starving and could not wait to find a new place.
The bar its self is a decent place. There are a few different seating areas. The hostess did do her best to seat us as far away from the music as possible.
The food is ok. I ordered the chipper chips with cheese and bacon. They come with a malt vinegar mayo, which is a nice touch. The chips are large steak fries. They are covered in a decent amount of cheese and bacon.
The service is ok. The staff is generally friendly. I am not sure if they are made to force an Irish accent, but it does not work for some of them.
