Had an enjoyable dinner at PJ O'Brien's. Absolutely lovely staff, very helpful and friendly. Dishes were delivered promptly and we never felt rushed even though our booking was set for 1.5 hours. Highly recommend the Irish Spice Bag (4 of us shared this generously portioned starter), the fish and chips and sticky date pudding to name a few.
Really love the spice bag!! It was my first time trying it so I don’t have anything to compare it to but this one was delicious with a decent kick of spice and a nicely flavoured gravy. I also enjoyed the Celtic cheese board - highlights included the large capers, black pudding, Irish bread and a sharp Irish cheddar. And of course you can’t go wrong with a Guiness to round it all out.
The food at the Irish pub was absolutely delicious, and the entertainment was top-notch. The staff members were incredibly lovely and polite, adding to the overall enjoyable experience. I had a fantastic time at this delightful establishment and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great meal and a wonderful atmosphere.
Great venue! Lots of atmosphere! Not really a date night location but more of a fun place to go with friends. The music was upbeat and fun and the service was fast and friendly. I really enjoyed visiting this bar.
Great Irish pub experience! Enjoyed good live music on Sunday, amazing cocktails and beers, and delicious food. It was such a pleasant experience. I’ll definitely be back to enjoy a pint of beer immersed in the authentic Irish atmosphere!
