The Irish Rail - MANASQUAN

Walked in. Self seating. Waited for server who was watching the TV. Went over and asked for menus. Was given menus but never came to the table. Waited again, while she went to another table who arrived after us. So we left. Been there before as was ok. Live close by so thought we would try again. But we're ignored while server was watching TV. Will not go back.

This charming Irish pub is conveniently located right by the train station. They’re famous for their burgers, and I’m definitely planning to give one a try on my next visit!

I ordered delivery from this restaurant, and the burgers were absolutely amazing! We definitely need to dine in next time.

The only thing Irish about this establishment is its name. The atmosphere is dull, with just one shamrock plaque featuring Irish Rail and nothing else either Irish or related to railroads in the place. However, the food was excellent, even though the limited menu wasn't Irish at all. The staff worked hard to serve everyone, despite the large crowd, but having just two servers for such a busy night felt unfair to both them and the patrons. The website didn’t mention it, but it should indicate when there’s a fundraising event in the future. Additionally, the draft beer could be colder.

We love The Rail! A great local spot for a good drink and great food.
