Ye Olde Emerald Tavern - Parkville

Large beer selection. Who knew? It looked like your average diving with 4 beer on tap from outside, but wow! Great choice when you board. Well-known and friendly bar staff. Good food especially at the house cooked evenings. Can't beat it. There are also friendly locals.

Good food, cold beer, friendly staff and karaoke!. The Emerald has been there for years for her St Patrick's Day Corned beef and coal. I wasn't there in a while when a friend recommended her cream of crab soup. It was good, but could be better with the addition of something sherry. The shrimp salad was very good. Good cold beer and friendly bar staff. The prices were decent and also portions good. Karaoke (Tues) from 9 a.m., make the Emerald a fun place to be on Tuesday night. So you have a nice meal, throw a cold (or two) and sing a few songs with friends old and new. I come back to work my way through the rest of their menu.

What a hideaway! I was slightly hesitant because I've never been in an Irish pub and was not sure how the experience would be. Nancy was super welcoming as soon as I got into the door and it made me feel like I was in the south home. I had the crabs filled mushrooms and fön fries for a light lunch and man o man it was delicious! The food was good, the service was good, and even the owner stayed over to make sure that I was good, so definitely a plus in my book and I will be back soon. Thank you. Nancy!

We were there in the karaoke night and everyone was somehow involved either singing or supporting those who volunteer. What a great ambience! Even a waitress stood up and sang and had a great voice. It was nice to see this community together and just have a great time together. The food was good. Especially we enjoyed the risotto with chicken, but also the fried shrimps and chicken bites were good.

We're new to the area and this place was so nice!! The crab fritters were delicious. The burger was AMAZING. And the staff are so friendly and nice. Will definitely be coming back
