This place serves great Guinness, has a relaxed bartender, and features simple yet charming decor. It's an Irish pub that feels more authentic than many other Irish pubs. It's comfortable, down-to-earth, and makes you want to linger. It's a favorite spot among students and locals alike. View all feedback.

my boyfriend and i came here after passing by on a monday night. we got guac chips the chips were such a weird taste that it lowkey ruined it, and the craftsman taters, which were dry and almost flavorless. the drinks were fine (i got a moscow mule which was too gingery for my taste, but my bf loved it, and he got a draft beer which was fine). the bartender was super warm and friendly and the atmosphere was nice but...

Great experience with courtesy of Aida (probably falsely beaten) lol, but good place for a few drinks and food. We had the shrimp tacos and the charcuterie board (no photos because we swallowed most of them quickly). Are you coming here when you're in the neighborhood or visit??
Loved this place. We came here on a Sunday and they had live Jazz music, had a great time.
I never write reviews, who has the time but The bartender, Carlos, he's amazing!!! Give him a promotion! He puts so much care and attention into his drinks and his customers. He has specialty drinks that are not on the menu. There is a campfire that he made very special, he added sugar to an orange slice and caramelized the sugar for this drink. It set it OVER THE TOP!Also, the drinks are very well priced.Okay now why the 4 stars you're asking... There is another bartender that gives no *ish about how your drinks are prepared. She's sweet but I had to correct her on the bill, she missed charging me for 3 drinks. Most people wouldn't say anything but there was $40 in drinks I almost wasn't charged for.The environment almost brought this down to a 3, the drinks seriously saved this. This is in essence a college bar that has a grown up feel. The problem is... it's a college bar. The drinks are laid back and professional weekday bar feel. I say this to just keep in mind the location; it's near Columbia college.But if CARLOS is working, it's worth it!

Hit or miss honestly. For this price range, you'd expect better quality (drinks and service) everytime.
