We tried Pat Murnane's last night and we were all pleasantly surprised. It was a Saturday night…read morearound 6:45 PM and we expected the place to be packed, but it wasn't. The bar area (with plenty of tables for dining) was packed and looked cozy, but the main dining area is huge and had only a few tables in use. We questioned our restaurant choice, but decided to keep an open mind and give it a try. We are so glad we did! The food was really good. Nice presentation and clearly, whoever prepared it is truly passionate about their job. The portions are large, so expect leftovers. We ordered a fried shrimp appetizer (similar to bang bang shrimp) and a chicken quesadilla as starters. Each could have been a meal on its own and both were delicious. (It's typical bar food - but done well.) For our main dishes we ordered Shepherds Pie (server's recommendation and favorite menu item ), Northern Fish Fry (cod); and a simple cheeseburger with bacon.. everything was tasty, nicely prepared, and again...large portions. The Shepherds Pie came with fresh steamed veggies that were wonderful and a nice surprise. *Note that cod is the Northern Fish Fry- but they also offer a catfish version. The wine was 50% off both by the glass and bottle, I believe that is their typical Saturday drink special. They have a prime rib special on Saturdays as well that is supposedly delicious, and served only until they run out. There is an 8oz or 12oz option. The server was fantastic as well. She was very attentive, knew the menu, and clearly enjoys her job. What more can you ask for? Prices: Our total bill (before tip) was $127 which included a couple drinks from the bar for each of us. The dinners we ate ranged from $16-$20. The starters were a bit pricey (~$18 for the quesadillas) but again, it was meal size and truly delicious. If you are hungry for a burger or typical Irish bar food, then give this place a try. Hopefully you'll have an experience similar to ours! (Our server was home from college for the holidays, so hopefully the rest of the staff is equally attentive.)

The sports bar is divided into two sections: a dining room with tables and booths, and a bar with high-top seating. The restaurant was fairly quiet until the karaoke was about to start. Then it seemed like you needed to scream to hear a conversation. They also have trivia nights, so that likely isn't as loud. I ordered the Wagyu Burger, and it was cooked to order and delicious. The mashed potatoes for the side were lukewarm and rather dry and bland. The way they were presented at the table made it seem as if they were meant to go with something, like butter or gravy. I would not recommend the mashed potatoes, but the burger was delicious. The sweet potato fries, another had as a side, looked good, as did a salad. Service seemed good at first with the drink and food orders. But once the food was brought out, I don't think we saw the waitress again until it was time for the checks. A bill with a credit card for another guest at a different table was even brought out with the processed checks. So make sure you get the correct credit card back.

Very disappointed with our recent experience. Both of us ordered the Reuben sandwich, which was…read morelisted as having rye bread, as a Reuben traditionally should. Instead, both sandwiches were served on plain white bread with no warning from the server, no explanation, and no opportunity to change our order. Had we been told beforehand, we could have ordered something else. The lack of communication was unprofessional and made for a frustrating dining experience. It's a shame because we've ordered takeout from River Pub in the past and have always enjoyed the food. Unfortunately, this experience left a bad impression, and we won't be returning.

Service, even when they are busy, is also very good. Friendly. Really feel like they CARE here. Case in point...open on Christmas Day. Yep. That's care for the community. Same great menu with a nice variety. Great selection of brews on tap. The Brown Ale from Charlotte was one of the best we've ever had. Also tried their spinach dip for the first time and it was fantastic. The crispy bacon really made it special. Also finally tried their wings. Love that you can get them grilled. And let me tell you they are worth the 30 minute wait! They won't let you have two different sauces, but will let you mix a couple and I gotta say my creation of smoky bbq mixed with honey habanero is a real winner! Husband is a huge fan of their Chicago Beef Sandwich and onion rings. And the sides are always good. Loaded Baked Potato and Broccoli are two of my faves. Never have to worry about parking as it's in the Lowes Foods Shopping Center. Nice choice of seating...high top tables, lower ones plus bar seating. Plus a few games if you feel like playing. Delightful neighborhood bar/restaurant.

Ordered the buffalo chicken wrap it said fried but they let me know they could do it grilled, so I chose that. I upgraded to a side of fries instead of the house potato chips. The food was what you would expect as bar food. Not fine dining but definitely tasted good and got the job done, plus we didn't go in there expecting fine dining we went in and got exactly what we had planned on getting so I feel it was very fitting. The only thing I would say is for the fries, is if we would have had the malt vinegar and ketchup brought out. Everyone was enjoy their time and we met lots of nice people. The servers were kind and brought us some water out for the pup. The pup enjoyed himself and meeting everybody. He even made himself comfortable to take a photo and promote. Would definitely come back again!

We started with fried pickles for the table, but to our surprise, they never arrived. My cousin ordered a chicken quesadilla, her husband had a burger, I ordered a burger as well, and my partner went with a deconstructed salad. While the food that eventually arrived was good, the wait was painfully long. By the time my cousins finished their meals, we still hadn't received ours. We ended up reorderin the pickles which only takes 2 mins to fry, regardless it was just a disappointing experience all around. The food's quality was decent, but the service and timing made it not worth the wait. Overall, it's a place with potential, but unfortunately, the service needs some improvement to match the quality of the food.
