  • I took a cross country tour of Ireland a couple years ago and despite the lush green sights, the Blarney stone, and the tour of the Guinness factory, my fondest memories were checking out the local pubs at every town I came to and the unique atmosphere each one contained. I collected pub glasses and matchbooks from all of them, and discovered for the first time Guinness's sister beer Smithwicks. So when my wife and I settled into Huntersville, we found out about this place which boasted the whole bar was shipped over from Ireland piece by piece so I couldn't wait to check it out. Turns out this place is the real deal, you walk up to a authentic stone pub in the middle of an otherwise common street near Birkdale. The inside of the restaurant is cozy and warm, and they have a nice outside seating area with tables as well. The menu is not completely dedicated to Irish fare, they actually have a lot of interesting mixes with a dash of Irish style to them such as their take on Canada's favorite "poutine" dish. They also have a very unique appetizer in their gourmet popcorn. If you are looking for bangers and mash though don't worry they have it along with of course Guinness on tap, and if you haven't had it before I recommend a Smithwicks, pronounced "Smiticks". Not a lot of places carry that in Charlotte, so it was nice to see it here. Unfortunately they don't have my other favorite Irish beer which is Beamish, but it is very similar to Guinness. A couple other things I should mention is they put on one of the best St. Patrick's Day parties in Charlotte. They team up with the other bar near by and rope off the entire block and throw a party in the street. They even setup a bar in the median with flat screen TVs so you won't miss any March Madness action. They also throw a great New Years Eve party, for around $50 per person, you get all you can eat, drink (beers, and liquor), and they have a dance floor upstairs with a live DJ, from what I can remember of the night it was a blast or so my wife tells me! Anyway definitely a place to check out if you have not been there before, and one last note they also have the LKN Comedy Zone on the top floor that has had some big acts, we saw Screech from Saved by the Bell, Pauly Shore, Tommy Davidson, Jamie Kennedy, and Aisha Tyler there.
