"Love me a good Irish pub. The food is solid, atmosphere is perfect and bartenders are great. TouchTunes is always a plus. Buffalo wings were some of the best I’ve had in a while - crispy, good seasoning plus Buffalo and good quality chicken. Buffalo tater barrels (special) are sooo good."

"My husband and I stopped here during a visit to the Canton/Boston area and absolutely loved this place! It has a great atmosphere and the service was phenomenal! Our server Laura was awesome and provided great recommendations! We got the wings with house sauce as an appetizer- the wings were WONDERFUL! All of our food was perfect, but the wings were our favorite bite. I got the sparerib grilled cheese with fries.. wow! Soooo good! My husband loved his smokehouse burger, but he wanted to steal my plate! Lol I really want to go back again before our trip is over. If we ever have vacations that put us anywhere near this place, we are for sure stopping here again!"

"Came here with my 8 year old son this past Thursday after having gone to Tree top. First, the service and people were absolutely fantastic. Truly truly good people. I ordered the lamb shank salad and my son got steak tips. Holy cow they were both amazing. My son ate almost all my lamb. He’s been asking for it nonstop since! Totally recommend this place! Me and my son will definitely be back!"

"The reason I wanted to come by was because of their dessert selection, (I got the Tres Leches shown) but my friend and I decided we get small plates too. Service was a little slow, but we did show at a later time when the staff was preoccupied with the drinking crowd, understandably so. Though the drinking crowd wasn't loud which was nice. About Last Night was delicious and came out quick. So did the food, but here's where the last star goes in this review. The fish tacos were absolutely delicious. They were so good I wanted to order another order togo. But the Nachos Poblanos with Buffalo Chicken were not it. I bet they are typically good, and the toppings were loaded on top which is always a good sign for a nacho plate, but the buffalo chicken for whatever reason did not taste up to par. Something was off, there was a taste to it that I can't quite explain but it was almost like the pan they used for the chicken was used for something prior and they just didn't clean it because again, it just had some taste going on that was just not it. Not to mention, my friend who ordered it is a spice enthusiast, and he didn't even get a buffalo flavor. Aside from that hiccup though, I would definitely return."

"Really great menu and tasting food with late night options. The fish and chips were really well seasoned and the piece of haddock literally weighted a pound. The accompaniments were also flavorful and well prepared. The staff was friendly and the Guinness pour was proper. I ended up going back a second time and had the a pizza which was also really good. The first time I went was a Friday night which was kinda loud but would definitely go back."

"Had me a nice, fresh, hand battered fish & chips today at this fine establishment on the south shore. This place is the epitome of a classic, traditional Irish pub. Big thanks to Felix, Emily and Amy for the great service. If you happen to be in the canton area then be sure to check this place out!"
