If you had a picture in your mind of a typical neighborhood Irish pub then this is it. Most bars like this only take cash, but even though they still use one of those cool really old push button ding registers they actually have a card processor thingy too. The bartender if friendly and helpful when asking about nearby eateries. Now, about the bar tools who hold up the end of the bar to keep it from falling, well they are the part of what makes a local watering hole fun. The conversations and comical pokes n jabs as new old customers come n go is as much fun as watching your favorite late night show. Drop by have a drink and just listen, at some point maybe you'll have something to add and be able to get in on the fun. Best place in town to experience true Irish sunblock ;-)

Like a going to a bar with a cute bartender with an Irish accent?!? Then BOOM! Here ya go! This place was a lot of fun! I came here to watch the basketball finals and had some friends meet up with me later. Yes, I went to a bar by myself and unlike another review here I did not get harassed. The people there were really nice and the bar mascot, a dog (whose name I cannot remember), is super friendly! We played music on the joke box later and had a couple rounds of drinks. It was really fun and not that expensive. There is a pool table upstairs but I never ventured up there to play. Overall, not a bad spot to hang out and I heard they will also have the NFL Sunday Ticket again this year!

Possibly the worst bartender experience I have ever had. Rude comments, complete disregard for customers as he chatted with his buddies, pouring himself shots and making gestures at anyone he didn't like. The rest of the establishment seemed like a nice neighborhood watering hole, but unfortunately the service will keep us from ever going back.

  • Jerry Gordinier

lovely bartenders, strong drinks, dog friendly, great ambience, ample seating. clearly a place regulars love and newcomers are welcome in. don't take your drinks outside the door, that is a dumb move that I did. high recommend drinking the drinks inside of the bar though.

Great atmosphere with generically great 90s and 00s music. Drinks are cheap and music totally isn't loud enough to make conversation strenuous until ~11pm on a Friday night. Also the Irish theme is validated by the tangible sense of community from many of the patrons, both with the bartenders and each other.

  • Ryan McNabb

Great little Irish pub with a friendly bartender and interesting regulars! Went in on a Saturday and they put on my college team's game for me. A few Anchor Steams later, and we were all taking turns quoting Blazing Saddles!

  • Kim Yeargan

My daughter took me there a couple of weeks ago. We played a couple games of pool. We had a couple of beers and Steve was the bartender. Great service, and this is my kind of establishment, we will be back.

The drinks are great! The bartender, Otto, is supercool. She is from England and has the best accent I've ever heard. Not to mention, she's a great listener. One of the best hidden gems in West Portal SF.
