Never been disappointed here. Good beer, good food, cozy and friendly. Faves are corned beef and cabbage or crabcake club. Best onion rings ever!
Eric BurroughJune 4, 2017The beer selection here is top shelf. Frequently there are kegs of limited release or cellared beers you can't find anywhere else.- The Nutty Walleye is awesome! Say hi to John at the bar and Sienna, one of the waitresses.

Evan[Bu]July 15, 2011Although not a traditional Irish dish, the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich is quite delicious. Start your meal off with an Irish beer and some cheese balls. Good food and good times, Dublin Bay!
Jenna BugAugust 14, 2014Love the cider selection. Also same great food for as long as I can remember.
Megan SmithSeptember 23, 2011Even if you don't normaly drink beer, you must get beer here! I don't normaly order beer while I'm out, but when I walked into this place it called to me.
Cecilia HarrisMarch 11, 2019I’ve tried multiple times, but will not get the fish&chips ever again. The good was the Jameson&ginger drink and the bread pudding. Stay at the bar - the dinner is not worth it.
The Reuben. 'Nuff said. Paired with a Half and Half, you have near perfection.

"A great dive bar in the heart of Campustown. Get a pitcher of beer, and play some games, while watching some games!"
