“ This is a great spot to hang out and also catch St. Paddy's day festivities on the Eastside. My wife and I have hosted a large party here for our joint birthday, and the staff is very warm and friendly and takes good care of us. I love being able to play darts in the back and find a booth to sit in and just hang out. The food is great and the service is always quick. My wife and I even left our baby stroller on accident for a long time after Saint Patty's day one year and they held onto it the entire time and returned it to us which was awesome. Their weekend brunch is always good too. ”
“ Great service and delicious food. Recommend this Irish Pub to anyone who is looking for a great place to eat. ”
“ I stopped by to watch some football the other night and decided to have dinner. I sat at the bar. The bartender recommended the Cottage Pie. It was delicious. Not only was the food perfect but the service was excellent. I'll return to try ither items on the menu. ”
“ Reviewing this for my parents just because they love this place. I personally hate bar style places like this, I just think their food is terrible, low quality, and I get an icky feeling. But my parents both dig it, they've lived in the Redmond area for years and this is always their go to bar. They come mostly for the drinks, but also the kind workers. You always know what to expect out of the food, drinks, and atmosphere here which makes it reliable. Like any place like this the workers are super friendly, the service is super fast, and the food is super cheap. There's not much else to say other than it's a bar, your going go get the full experience here. ”
“ Came for St. Paddy's Day and it was busy busy! We didn't have to wait long to be seated and our waitress was so sweet and attentive. Very roomy and lots of outside patio space too. I always love chicken pot pie so I had to order it. This recipe was a new one for me but overall good twist on a classic. Super rich sauce and huge chunks of chicken and veggies. My friends got the fish and chips (7/10) and the Spicy chicken sandwich (9/10). Over all good taste and great food, they kinda wished the fish was a bit crispier. Great portion sizes. I loved their fries! Get the regular ones, amazing. We also got the fried Mac and cheese and the jalapeño poppers (no photo) 10/10 for both. It is an Irish bar so more beer then anything but they do have a bar, just no wine. Overall a great place to come get food or drinks for any occasion. ”
“ This place continues to serve up great Irish & American pub food. Service is always spot-on. Definitely one of our go-to's for years now!! ”
“ Been here more times than I can count. There isnt a restaurant in the WA that I've been to as often. Family friendly: Yes Pet friendly: Yes, patio area only Parking: Yes FOOD: 1. Breakfast Sandwich (scrambled eggs, Irish bacon, sliced tomato, cheddar cheese, toasted sourdough, roasted potatoes) $12.50 - 4 Stars: This is a hefty sandwich LOL Personal preference though regarding the Irish bacon and the amount of oil on the outside of the sourdough. I'm not a fan of ham and the Irish bacon is like Canadian bacon where its just ham. Every restaurant that has a toasted sandwich ALWAYs use oil and/or butter which I hate cause it makes your fingers greasy. 2. Southern Biscuits & Gravy (Housemade peppered sausage gravy smothered over flaky biscuits) $10 - 5 Stars: THIS IS THE BOMB! Okay, The first time we tried the breakfast at JJ it as more of why not as I didnt want to go back to RBG (again) since they're not great. So when we tried the biscuit and gravy it was a big party in my mouth. The gravy is all made from scratch and like the description, its peppery, creamy, chunky (i know chunky is usually not a great term) but it is sooooo good. Their biscuits are hot and flakey Additional food I've gotten in other visits that is are must try: Happy Hour: fried mushrooms, buffalo chicken burger Regular menu: Mac N Cheese Poppers, Cream Cheese filled jalapeno, Steak & Guinness Pie, Kids meals Fish and Chips. DRINKS: Full Bar so they can make you anything and everything. The Bartender usually will help work the floor as well depending on where you're seated in the restaurant. My current favorite drink is their Irish Coffee with Jameson Cold Brew! I'm not a fan of Jameson but this drink is warm and cozy on a chilly morning. RESTAURANT/INTERIOR: Good size restaurant with a full bar, over 21 area, additional seating in the restaurant side that is family friendly, and outdoor seating that is pet friendly. The recently redid their patio area with a fancy fence which sounds weird but I really like it enough to mention it. There are TV everywhere so you can see any game no matter where you sit! This is a great spot for almost all games. We did a birthday/super bowl party here this year and it was not busy at all! Coming from Vegas where every bar/restaurant is slammed on super bowl so you usually have to pay cover or book your reservation well in advance (or most restaurant wont take reservation on game day). MENU: Good mix of items that you can find something for everyone - burgers, sandwiches, some traditional Irish items, etc. STAFF: The staff here are amazing! Each person we've ever met with (tenure or new) have always been friendly and knowledgeable. We've never had a bad experience visiting here. As mentioned on above, I've had a birthday/super bowl party. I was concerned that the restaurant would be extremely busy so we ended making a large party reservation. They were very flexible with us regarding reserving a section of the restaurant, F&B min, etc. ”
