Description

Doherty’s Irish Pub in Apex, NC, offers a mixed experience. With a lively atmosphere and friendly service, many guests rave about signature dishes like the Irish Egg Rolls and Brisket Poutine. Patrons appreciate the reasonably priced, flavorful options such as fish and chips and brisket tacos. However, some diners report issues like long waits, poor food quality, and noise distractions during busy dining hours. Overall, while many recommend the pub for its vibrant setting and delightful menu, a few caution potential visitors about inconsistent experiences. For a lively eatery with hearty Irish fare, Doherty’s remains a noteworthy establishment.

Delicious. absolutely delicious. the staff was friendly and knowledgeable. the restaurant was clean with enforced social distancing and all workers wore the masks right. I asked for some menu recommendations from our bar delicate (we ate at the bar above) and he came through! we live in sanford and passed on this place while we were in apex, but this is 100% a place that we often do. photos of gaelic steak medaillen (med rare), pecan crusted pork chops, and the most beautiful guinness this side of earth.

Dined al fresco. the brain cake was delicious as usual, and the pulled pork sandwich special was so good that they should consider it to add it to the regular menu. I loved it! it was in the did a tasty bite that should also be welcomed by the general manager. my friend who visited from the region finger lakes of ny was impressed by the southern hospitality!

First time at Dougherty’s, as we are new to the area. Trali has always been our go-to. Love the fact that there is more than just traditional Irish fair at Dougherty’s (get the shrimp puppies!! , although for staple Irish food, I honestly prefer Trali. Overall great experience and great food for the money. We will be back!

My wife and made a fast exit after being seated. A large group at a table in the main dining area was extraordinarily loud. It did not appear that restaurant management was doing anything about it. Others also left. Not likely I will go again to that madhouse.
