    Oh Mary O! Cooking up such *dangerously* delicious hot apple cider, fortified with Jameson. So deceptively fresh & innocent tasting! & SO damn good: it's worth traveling for!

    Mary is the absolute best and a staple for the neighborhood. You’ll always be treated right here. Plus her scones & Irish soda bread are amazing!

    Not your somewhat standard Irish bars...quiet on a Sunday but the Irish menu is very tasteful. Irish curry chips and the Shepards Pie both delish. Pint of Guinness is one of the better in the city.

    I've met Mary. She's a delight. And her children have manners. Order a perfect Manhattan on the rocks w/ a twist.

    Don't go. Overpriced & not good drinks plus horrible service (even though there were only about 8 other people there)
