I was a little lost because I came in through a side door. Got a seat on the patio with a view of India st. The waitress came over and got our order. Super sweet and didn't rush us. We luckily knew we wanted the roast and fish and chips. They did not disappoint. I got extra gravy and I am so glad I did because we dipped the fries. Glad I waited for the Sunday roast because the meat was super tender and cooked perfectly. Fish and chips were also good and paired well with the malt vinegar and tartar they had with it. Would definitely recommend.

This was my 1st time trying a shepherds pies and it did not disappoint! It was flavorful, huge portion, and hearty! My husband has had a great variety of great fish and chips and he rated these a 9! The fish was fresh and the breading was light and airy. Our server Christina was very friendly and helpful. We will definitely be back!

My name is Bassel. I will talk. I prefer heavy drinks and not beers. Beers consume too much space in my stomach, and from the surgery I had, I can't use it all. I prefer heavier drinks because without the slow trance, I do not feel like I weigh an extra 40lb. I drink Guinness here and this is why I CHOSE this pub. It is hard to find it served anywhere. If you want to see me drink through heavy drinks and be the most stable guy ever with amazing charisma, come to this bar. It's called Irish Tavern.

Memorial Day had a lot of interesting side effects for us especially me dealing with fallen…read moresoldiers in my family. It was my second time at O'Sullivan's. The first time I had fish and chips and a Guinness. The food was excellent service top-notch. Memorial Day we went in feeling a little rowdy with emotions surging. We sat outback because we were a little rowdy we didn't want to bother anybody inside. Another table of a bunch of rowdy people next to us so we felt pretty comfortable out there. I was raised on Cottage pie and Shepherds pie! This day, I had shepherds pie one of my favorite meals and it did not disappoint. It reminded me of home growing up. Shepherds pie was so good it took me back home in my mind. The difference between the pies if you're Irish, Shepherds pie is traditionally with lamb. From the East Coast and lastly, the Bay Area, San Francisco. I spent a lot of time at Irish Pubs. I worked on Market Street. The salads were great this day. I had one complaint that was the "Irish coffee" I can't call it Irish coffee. A cup of coffee with some sort of Irish cream poured in. More like a cocktail. Service was great. Johnny Foleys is a great pub in SF but there are so many. When back home. I'll hit my familiar pubs. I looked for Soda Bread on their menu. They have brown bread but I prefer soda bread.

It's not fancy and I don't want it to be. It's technically a British pub and I love that as well. The staff are the same sweet folks and the owner is always at the bar and chatting with us regulars. Come on down - get a pint and check out Friday fish fry night! Oh and the pot pies - you can take home frozen ones. Yes please! Oh I should mention this is a spot for football fans (soccer for yanks). :)

I went during happy hour, but they no longer offer food specials during that time. Beer is $5 during happy hour, and they have a nice selection. Other than us, there were 2-4 other people in the place. I just didn't get a happy vibe. The star at this place is the fish and chips. We also had a somewhat underwhelming chicken salad. It seems the owner has a court case with the company that owns the building, so a note about the case was printed in the menu.

I really loved how they have mix matched furniture set up all around the place. All the staff were so friendly and made sure our needs were taken care of.

The old Good Guys tavern was sold and morphed into this new place. Let's just say I miss Good Guys…read moregreatly. When they first opened under the new name, the place had super bright lighting. Really it was weird, like medical operating room brightness...They ended up shading the lights and painted the walls dark?? Better, appropriate ambience. It's a lot more modern and cleaner than ever though. Well, so they call it a taphouse now. Which means they are a craft beer bar. With less than average beer selection on tap for a taphouse in my opinion. They do have a large can selection that pushes them up a star. Many one-off beers and smoothie styles which can be difficult to obtain. There's only one person working the bar, which has always been a friendly female. Which is appropriate for the 90% male clientele. You gotta figure this works everywhere. Take it from someone who knows, as I worked as a bartender and barback for many years. Serving beer is one thing, but it's tough getting a male bartending job in general. The selection could be better. However, the problem I have with this place is the exorbitant prices of the draft beers. This is considering the area, which is on Broadway in Lemon Grove. I mean we are talking 9 and 10$ beers here. For example, Frank the Dank- a double IPA is 10$ here. And I know where I can get these for $5 a pint... and I'm not telling where either! Actually if you do really read my reviews, this information will be eventually leaked out if it already hasn't been.. But yeah I'm sorry, but this why you are empty 80% of the time. Who can afford this in this permanently depressed area/neighborhood? The working men of course, who aren't ready to go home and deal with that nagging significant other..

My biggest complaint would be the prices. I paid $10 for a pint of Two Towns cider, and $15 for a 19oz can of Boochcraft. The staff is always very friendly, and happy to help with beverage selection. With this being the only real craft beer option in Lemon Grove, it's a good stop, it's just going to cost you a little more.
