I'm going to tell you exactly what to do if it's your first time here & you're not with a group. Sit at the bar, get something on tap, & order the special or fish & chips. Talk to person next to you.

If you're in Ft. Wayne, I feel bad for you, buuuuutttt make things better for yourself by eating here. The food was great, the service was great, and the ambiance was great.

Scotch eggs are the best in town. Unfortunately to cut cost the new owners took away stone ground mustard, and replaced with inferior honey mustard...a cheap substitute. Try the Ardbeg Scotch...yum.

It's not on the menu but ask for the "Soda Bread". They'll bring out a plate of homemade, wonderfully weighted, raisin seasoned bread with two dipping sauces...apple butter + pumpkin spice; for free!

Order a half wedge salad / half Irish grilled cheese sandwich - it's a great taste of Eire that isn't too heavy on your stomach.

Order a cocktail made from Jamison, Ginger ale, and cherry. Call it an "Uncle Andy". I'm trying to start a trend.

Bangers and Mash is where it's at!

The Irish food is really sub-par and the beer selection is pretty decent. Your clothes and hair will reek when you leave, but the atmosphere is pretty fun! Come for dinner, stay for trivia.

Food is absolutely delicious but service is terrible - unless you are a regular it appears.
