| - This is the model by which all Irish pubs in America should aspire to become. Drinks, decor, atmosphere, service...they all remind you of the greatness that lies just across the Atlantic.
Galway has a plethora of little nooks and crannies to enjoy your favorite pint, one of the true reflections of a real Irish pub. Drinking out in the open with your friends is done at the bar, not the entire pub/restaurant, which most places get wrong. The pubs in Ireland are full of little "rooms" or closed off tables where people can not only drink but talk. While we are a very social race, we do enjoy privacy from time to time.
The patio is certainly one of their best features, and one of the best in the Lake Norman area as well. While the view isn't anything spectacular, it's nicely shaded off by lots of hanging baskets and a great cast-iron fence. It's a really comfy area, especially at night when the bar area fills up.
The bartenders here are real pros, and you can tell they take their pints seriously. As anyone who really knows how to pour a stout does, they hold your pint until it has settled, instead of just handing it to you while the head is still making its way to the top. They also have that over the top jovial spirit that we Irish are known for, which makes paying for the pint that much easier.
