I appreciated that McGuirk’s offered reservations on OpenTable, making it easy to enjoy dinner in this charming East Coast beach town. Upon arrival, we were promptly greeted and seated at a table with a lovely view of the beach and boardwalk activity. Our drink orders were taken just minutes after we sat down, and once our drinks—beer, wine, and cocktails—arrived, we placed our food order. We decided on burgers and a chicken sandwich, saving the lobster roll for another visit. The burgers were flavorful, and the chicken sandwich was good as well. If you're expecting a Michelin-star experience, you may be let down, but if you're looking for a casual spot to enjoy a good meal suitable for all ages, I highly recommend stopping by McGuirk’s for a drink and a sandwich. Overall, it's a nice little seaside pub with a great view. Would I return? Absolutely!

We placed our food order at the same time. After an hour and a half of waiting and having to ask another waitress for drink refills, we finally received our meals. Unfortunately, they were only mediocre. We ordered three appetizers, and one of our friends received her entrée. After nearly two and a half hours, our other friend still hadn’t received her meal, so she decided to cancel her order. We faced some resistance when trying to have it removed from the bill. Additionally, our waitress seemed more focused on her phone than on attending to us.

The chicken skewers and tips were $26; the chicken was good, but the beef was just average. The American burger came without any condiments, though it was cooked to my liking. The side Caesar salad was nothing special, and the broccoli didn’t seem very fresh.
