Kelly O'Brians - Vernon

The menu provides everything you'd expect for an Irish-themed pub, plus a few local variations. The place was very busy, so the servers were run off their feet, but they did a great job, took care of everything, so no complaints.The one big drawback of this place is the lack of decent AC. If you visit when it's 35c outside, you're gonna feel like you're sitting in an oven.

I used to go to Kelly O's in Penticton back in the 80's and thought it was great. Then I grew up and moved away and ate good food. Now that I am back I dread hearing that someone is making me suffer through another expensive subpar meal so they can get a free dinner (the only good thing about the place- and that they have Guinness). Everything tastes premade and packaged. I have been a number of times (never my choice) and have never been happy with my food. Sloppy saucy bland and generic but you get lots. It is vaguely Irish themed, like a Disneyland resort Irish theme- so, not really. And it is expensive!!! Why pay a lot for premade good? Hell, for the money, if you want chain type food go to Earls or White Spot.

McKracken Rolls are the only reason I come to this place. The staff are reasonably friendly, and the rest of the menu is nice for appies and cheap drinks on the right specials nights. But I wouldn't necessarily eat dinner here. Also if you are a specialty coffee drinker be warned, they use an oil based whipped topping that is green. Be warned,

Fun atmosphere, our server, Cupcake, was a sweetheart. My prime rib was awesome. They had a special menu for Valentines. Prime Rib Oscar with all the fixings, Shrimp Pasta and BEST cesar salad we have ever had.

I was in restaurant/pub 3 times in less than 48 hrs, It was very busy but staff were great and on the ball, with drinks and food. The Patio is great but can get hot in afternoon sun.The food I found was average to good, I had the garlic dry ribs, a good portion & tasty, I also had the Stroganoff which was lacking flavour, good garlic bread.
