    Good ambience. We ordered drink, fried peppers and fish & chips. Fish is a BIG fish piece with chips. Awesome. Fried peppers are good too. Been there couple of times. Love to go again.

    They have a real working fireplace, which is a great spot to warm up during the colder months. We just love the Jameson Glazed Steak Tips.
  • Creative Loafing Charlotte
    Many of the staff are straight from Ireland, so expect an accent to accompany whatever it is you're drinking. Ice-cold Guinness, Irish car bombs and creative, quick-hitting cocktails abound. Read more

    Don't listen to Tim's tip- Be "original" by playing Droplick Murphey's? That's not original. It's great the way it is, 3 distinct zones of music and atmosphere keeps us here every weekend.

    Great fish and chips! Also one of the few places that offers a real snakebite: Guinness and cider.

    Cool place if you can get a seat or served, it gets overly crowded on weekends that makes the experience unworthy

    If you like Irish Whiskey try the cask strength 12-yr Red Breast. It's what dreams are made of.

    Went here the other night. I didn't check in until after I paid my cover.. DOH! Band upstairs was awesome though and worth the $5. They covered a lot of great songs.

    I didn't know there was something as cooter kicking or sack slamming as the Irish breakfast burger. I don't know what to do with myself right now

    Used to be the best Reuben in town, now it's got brown and tough roast beef. Honestly a disappointment. So, I will recommend elsewhere... Fish and chips are still good.

    Nothing like a quiet lunch on a cold rainy day next to their fireplace. I recommend a Guinness and their Shepard's Pie.

    C'mon, RiRa, be authentic. Don't play friggin' Deejay music on a Saturday night. If you can't afford an Irish singer, just play Flogging Molly/Dropkick Murphys/U2. Otherwise, you're just another gener
