McAuliffe’s Pub

Okay it has nothing to do with a thing Irish other than Guinness in tap and the band was screaming incoherently but I did have fun. Not sure how long the current owner has been here but remember coming g here years ago and the carpet stunk. Glad that has changed.

Really? I mean really?

Nice bar with decent tap beer. Frozen pizzas are actually good. Friendly bartenders & customers. FREE WIFI!

I love this place. When I am in town, it is one of the places that I make sure I get to go into. Good beers, nice and cold. Great staff. Wonderful owner. This is something that I can only wish every bar could be.

Best bar in Racine… hands down. Great staff… great prices… great live music. I also highly recommend Team Trivia at McAuliffe’s for a great evening!

This is an Irish Pub… really?
They have a really nice beer selection, and within that selection is one of my new favorite breweries Furthermore. The staff is nice and a couple dart boards in the back. The jukebox is kinda limited…
If your on a bar crawl in Racine McAuliffe’s Pub is worth checking out. But it’s not a place to go out of your way for unless you really were looking for Furthermore.

I am mainly giving 5 stars especially because of JJ. He is one of the best owners I have ever met! I first met JJ at Milwaukee Irish Festival. I then went to JJ’s twice to see the Fenians, my favorite celtic band. (Known these guys since 1999 and the lead singer helped my husband propose. Currently, they are not touring but they are playing in California and a few areas.) McAuliffe’s Pub has a great number of national celtic bands and relatively unknown eclectic bands. The place is a little hard to find, tucked behind a strip mall, but I am glad I went both times! I wish I could go for other bands he has. If you are within driving distance of Racine — like Northern IL or Milwaukee area, just check out his website and go visit some weekend!
