Irish Pub

Can ice be sandy? Slight crustiness observed, I don’t hate it.

Irish pub is a good place to grab drinks right after work. Very casual typical bar feel and not that loud for a bar. We initially tried to go to Moriarty’s but they wouldn’t seat our party of 4 because they had reservations starting at 6pm (we arrived at 5:24!!). We crossed the street to Irish Pub and were seated right away. Yuengling and Blue Moon Happy Hour specials. I opted for the chicken thumbs platter. The thumbs were huge! Nice breading that didn’t make the chicken oily. Waitress checked in with us several times without being overbearing. I only give it three stars because it is a plan b/​c.

Came by for a drink before Book of Mormon at the Forrest Theatre. This place is called Irish Bar and has NO GUINNESS! Very misleading.
We grabbed a few Belgian draft beers that were decent. The bartender was rude and short but the place was busy. The counters and tables were clean and otherwise the place wasn’t too packed for a Saturday night. Nothing too exciting here.
Would pick somewhere else next time, friendly bartenders aren’t too hard to find in Philly.

Not what I was expecting, the only beer available in pitcher was coors light. Beer list had about 10 beers.

Just no. Beers are lukewarm, food is cheap, but you certainly get what you pay for. Fries are soggy and boring, and the melted cheese on my roast beef was like plastic. It also sat too long on a counter after before being served. Service was fine.

Full disclosure: we didn’t eat here, only drank, but the food did look good.
We went here because we were early for a dinner reservation and wanted to grab a beer and we love Irish pubs. We grabbed 4 beers between the 2 of us and they were good and not very expensive. Keep in mind, we’re from NY, so beers are between $ 7 – 9 on average.
All the beer choices were good. They had Bud and Coors Light for that crowd, and they had hoppy craft beers and stouts for that crowd. Literally, anyone can find a beer here they’ll like.
We went back after dinner for a «nightcap,» as they called them in old movies and detective novels. I had a couple of Frangelicos and coffee (coffee was good, Frangelico made it better) and my wife had a Bailey’s and coffee.
Dustin the bartender was awesome. He knew all there was to know about beer, both the beers on tap and the beers that were coming to the taps when some kegs ran out. We talked beer for a while and then he gave us recommendations at a bakery we were going to the next day and he got legit excited to hear we were going there.
Good place, good beer, good prices, good coffee, good people. Can’t expect more than that from an Irish pub. You want crazy $ 15 cocktails? I dunno. Go to NYC.

They don’t have Guinness and the glasses were coated in egg scented schmutz and lipstick.

Had lunch here. Let’s just say, that I had a craving for more Fish and Chips all weekend.
They were that good. Coleslaw was great as well. Tartar sauce was sooo good too.
We sat at the bar. The bartender was so great! He was friendly, social and so knowledgable about The beers and Philadelphia.
If we are ever in Philly again. We will be eating here again!!!

Went here on the Big Red Pedal Tours pub crawl and had a great time. Good staff, good beer, great vibe. The people watching on Walnut Street can’t be beat. Good place to meet friends for a shot and a beer…

Great pub. Called the «Irish Pub». The name may Sound generic, but it’s a legit place. Hardly generic.
Good food and great service, great draft beer selection as well as several bottles and cans.
Very nice neighborhood. I enjoy their salads immensely, as well as the chicken «thumb» buffalo tenders.
After 10:00PM, the food and drink menu is 20% off. I recommend this location to anyone.

The veggie burger is VEGAN! They can cook it on the grill instead of in the fryer and I just left off the bun (not sure if it’s vegan). They have Magners Pear Cider in a bottle and Angry Orchard on draft.

An Irish Pub without Guinness. That says enough (seriously, they don’t have Guinness). And this is also a location where the pedi-​cab things stop and let off hoards of drunk people.

Service tonight was terrible. Two drinks were made wrong, no service for outside tables, and the younger bartender with the tatts is a total rude jerk. I wanted to throw the poorly made dirty martini in his face! The bill came handwritten– $ 15.00 without explanation of charges for each drink. Strange business practices and customer service is dead so… NEVER going there again.

TVs and typical pub atmosphere with friendly service. Ordered the mozzarella sticks which were great. Had some beers on special which were fine. My boyfriend had the chicken parm sandwich and st james fries which he said were ok, maybe a little bland.

Maybe stop here if you want beer, but know that even though it’s named Irish Pub they do not have Guinness. The service was good, but that’s about it. The waitress did an excellent job of making shit up when I asked about if the «braded» onion rings was a typo or something different. It’s a typo, don’t get excited. The atmosphere is exceptionally loud, and the space is poorly planned with a constant bottle neck at the door.

Came here on a whim last week while looking for dinner past 10pm on a Tuesday, and I’m so glad that were still serving! The menu is kind of diner meets pub, and it was exactly what my friends and I were looking for. Our server, Kaitlin (or Caitlin, my apologies!), was absolutely fantastic, accommodating, and personable. I would come back just to be waited on by her.
I had the reuben, which was delicious, and the fries were perfectly crispy. My friends got the mac-​n-​meatballs, fish-​n-​chips, and chicken thumbs (we all got a laugh at the name), and all of the food was good. We were all satisfied and pleased with our experience at Irish Pub, and I’ll make sure to come back sometime soon!

They put on the ND game for me with commentary. Got to love the customer service.
The cheese dip is spicy and delicious. Maybe the chips are too weak and salty for this combo, but beer helps.
I will certainly comeback. The beer is reasonably priced here for the location.

These are the worst nachos we ever had in the city. We think they poured water on the plate. Each nacho was like a wet paper towel.
Servers were awesome though. ;)

We stumbled across this place called the Irish Pub. It looked like a typical pub.
I had the Buffalo Chicken Thumb platter. They were big chicken strips that were tossed in buffalo sauce. They came with fries and blue cheese. They were really good. The meat was tender and flavorful. They were also very filling.
G had the shepherd’s pie. It was beef and vegetables topped with mashed potatoes and cheese. He said it was ok.
If you want chicken tenders, I mean thumbs. Come here.

Enjoyed happy hour here. $ 2.50 bud light draft. We ordered the pierogies which seemed on the smaller side but good. Also had the fries (can’t remember the name of them). Probably some of the best fries I’ve had. Came with gravy, cheese, caramelized onions allllll drizzling on top! Lol. Awesome. The bathroom is all the way downstairs so this isn’t a place Where I’d get too drunk, would probably fall down the stairs. The restaurant is larger than what it seems with a slew of booths towards the back of the bar. The bartenders were friendly as well.
