    The hennessey's I used to go to in seal beach was so nice and pub friendly with families, seniors, dates, it was great.This place just seems to pull in the weirdest lowest common denominators. No good

    Usually the best, this time it was not at its best. Crowned beef hash usually so good, was served cold and it was tough and not up to its usual greatness.

    Cute set up. Great drinks and VERY strong. In between buildings is outside area with 2 fire pits. One side has live band and the other has dance floor. Great weekend hangout!

    Amazingly, they don't subscribe to Fox Soccer on DirecTV.. Can't get Premier League here. It's an Irish Pub for gosh sakes!

    Try the fishbowl. Not my favorite, but my friends sure enjoyed it. Watch out though- if you grew up here, you will run into SO many people from your past. Entertaining, actually.

    Draws a really bad crowd. This place is a magnet for the lowest common denominators. Thumbs down for me. Sorry.
