The Egg & Cheese Bagelwich will hit the spot, just make sure to load it up with bacon, avocado, AND pastrami like we did!
Behrad EatsFebruary 15, 2016
Great wings here, especially the Lemon Pepper Fried Matzo Chicken Wings.

This Irish pub is also a Jewish deli. Yes, really. It's also got three (3!) Wi-Fi networks, all free, and none of them have passwords. Yes, really. Best of all, the wifi is actually fast. Yes, really.

Must order the geniusly delicious Reuben Egg Rolls with Russian dipping sauce.

Congratulations, you made it! Check out the Early Bird Happy Hour from 3-7pm: $1 Off Miller Lite, Shocktop, Rail Drinks, & $5 Glasses of Wine. Tell them Drink DC sent you! Read more

This place is great, but a snakebite is lager & cider, not lager & Guinness. Also, the homemade "matzo"rella sticks are killer.
Melissa RaymondSeptember 3, 2012
All of the bread is made in house so try on of the build your own sandwiches! My fav is the rare roast beef.

The star and shamrock sandwich is the probably the world's most perfect sandwich.

The Concord (fried baloney) will blow your mind! The Clogger and the Reuben are also delicious. Say hi to Jay behind the bar...he's a swell fellow.
Ernie SmithOctober 25, 2015
Great trivia spot, friendly staff.
Andrea BonkAugust 14, 2011
The shepherd's pie fries are unreal. No comparison to chili fries; they're just amazing!

Probably the only bar on H street that you can start drinking in at 11am weekdays!

They no longer make the Clogger (RIP), but Bullfrog Bagels are excellent.
Max FrankelMarch 10, 2013
Dj played lil boosie?? Best bar music ever
Zach BercuApril 13, 2013
The chairs are perilous and the situation is tenuous but it's all good.
William CahillaneMay 28, 2016
Everything is good there
DanielJune 23, 2013
Unique blend of Irish and Hebrew foods and drinks
Ryan WalshJune 29, 2013
One of the few places in DC that had Brooklyn Blue Point Lager
Jen KarrJuly 1, 2010
The Latke Madness sandwich is ridiculously good. Latkes replace the rye bread in this riff-on-a-Reuben. YUM is all I gotta say!
DevonAugust 1, 2011
Turkey on toasted sourdough with lettuce and tomato (mayo and provolone if you like). So simple. So good.
WomplyJanuary 18, 2012
Star and Shamrock has partnered with Womply to offer $15 cash back after 3 visits!
Chuq YangJuly 1, 2010
peek the deli! The brine, cure and bake it right there! I do need to go back for the food. Not very vegetarian friendly (even though I'm not a vegetarian).
DevonOctober 31, 2011
Excellent bartenders - friendly to regulars and competent folks, indifferent to assholes.
Sandra RubinchikApril 6, 2015
Jewish deli meets Irish pub meets my bottomless pit of a stomach.

Grab a he'brew beer and latke madness sandwich and get ready for the best night of your life.

Banana Bread Beer isn't on the menu, but it's so good

Order the Clogger without reservation. It's a "sandwich," like the Grand Canyon is a "hole." Way beyond your expectations.

definitely try the brooklyn ipa if ales are your thing!
Mandy JenkinsSeptember 20, 2010
Excellent potato pancakes - try them with both sour cream and applesauce.

Irish Jewish pub, how lovely! 🍀

Try the latkes and the Reuben egg-rolls... Both are amazing!
ArdvaarkSeptember 25, 2010
Devour a Clogger, and then check yourself into the cardiac unit at Howard University Hospital.
LiaJuly 3, 2013
Get a Crunkcake!
anamMarch 10, 2013

Jay LeachApril 30, 2010
