    An indie Irish pub with a solid menu and real Irish people managing it and working the bar. Go if you want something to eat with all those drinks or just to get some work done (thanks to free wi-fi).

    One of the few authentic Irish pubs with a real, authentic Irish staff. Why not enjoy the free wifi and get some work done while you slug down your Guiness? Read more

    Great joint to watch a soccer match on the weekend. Chill vibe, great selection of draft beers and step above typical Irish pub fare. Try the "Amish chicken" sandwich.

    Saturday & Sunday mornings just got better. Watch English League Champions Soccer or European Club Rugby and enjoy imported drink specials while you do. A little hair-of-the-dog maybe?

    Why go to Irish Pub when you can be served by real Irish publicans. They have a great happy hour and good food too.
