Noreen is Back! This happy fact bumped the Hooker right on up to a 5. The "Irish" is back in the pub... Classic pub interior of dark, well-worn woodwork. A stone fireplace lends it an affable cheeriness. It sports a massive wraparound patio with extensive seating for warm weather or standing space to indulge your tobacco craving. I do like the layout and feel of the place.
They pour a good pint of Guinness (I've had Guinness in 40 states - bit of a connoisseur) and a good drink. You'll find an interesting mix of folks here. Locals, folks from the hotel, blue and white collar and everything in between.
The service has always been excellent and the staff take very good care of their customers.
I haven't eaten there, so I cannot yet comment on the grubbage.
A spot like this is a go-to choice for drinks - one or many... Dig It Indeed!
This treasure of a place also sports a comedy club upstairs. A true find for an area that doesn't sport a lot of night life.
Slainte!
