Good place to meet your lover and call it quits or take your wife and have a split. Typical pub food and great cocktails, with a friendly scruffy​ bartender that​ must've known Oliver Twist. I had a club sandwich with fries. It was good but nothing felt homemade except the bloody Mary, which made me feel homo-made. There was a drunk lady​ outside who told me that the food inside was glorious...Gloria​, I think they got your number. IDK if I'd return because I'm just visiting​ and I like to try new places. But if you live here then go for it. Have a drink and sandwich and its walking distance from The​ Spa at the GOD like hotel nearby. read more

This is one of our go to places. The fish and chips are fantastic!! Salads are huge! And they have an area of toppings. The staff is friendly and quick! Oh and the French onion soup is yummy! read more

An Irish Pub in upscale Pinehurst, home of many golf courses. Good, cold, Guinness on tap with a great variety of traditional Irish cuisine and on the night that we visited, live traditional Irish music in the basement. My buddy and I stayed at the bar upstairs. We visited during the "fish and chips" special where you can order as many fish you could eat. My buddy had the special and I opted for the traditional corned beef and cabbage. After my dish arrived, I'm thinking that I should have ordered the special. My corned beef and cabbage arrived a deep dish plate with chopped up cabbage and slices of corned beef all mixed in. Hmmm...never tried it that way. The mustard that accompanied the plate was French's Yellow and Dijon mustard. I asked for the more traditional mustard with whole grains, I was informed that it was available at an additional cost. Another first at an Irish pub to pay extra for traditional mustard. So...would I return? Maybe, for just the Guinness, but not the food. read more

Had lunch here today and enjoyed mozzarella sticks with a salad! Everything was delicious except for the bacon on my salad that I didn't ask for...but highly recommend and very friendly staff! Cute shops near by too! read more

I love this place every time I'm down in the area. They have good cold beer and a friendly welcoming staff. Their onion soup is the bomb and I ate it for lunch everyday with my last visit. They also have some killer fish n chips and some great apps to share over a couple of beers. They have a nice little downstairs from some laughter and whisky. Till we meet again my favorite little NC pub! read more

Dugans has the BEST food. My order is never wrong, it's always so good. It's my favorite place to go in NC! Definitely recommend. I've had the Beer Battered Fish, Corned Beef and Cabbage, and the Bangers. Always cooked to perfection, the service is amazing and welcoming. read more

A must on your visit to the Village of Pinehurst...mix of locals and visitors, great food, friendly service, and incredible partner to the community. read more

This place is HUGE when you think about it. Loved the bard down stairs, so cool and really big and open. We went for karaoke that never started on a Thursday night, but ended up leaving since it was getting late. They had a ton of beers on tap, and very nice bar tenders. Good little bar in town if you're at Pinehurst. read more

Sat here for over an hour and a half with no service. Guys sat down at a table next to me and the server came right up. Lousy!!!!!

Dugan's is the cat's meow. Fact not opinion. I've been here several times for dinner/lunch/just drinks and it is always 100% A-One steak sauce awesome in your face. Do yourself a favor and order the pub soup. I don't care if you're lactose intolerant or on a diet or it's the Sabbath. Just do it. And enjoy the creamy, cheesy, meaty, bacony orgy in your mouth. You're welcome. I came here twice on St Patty's Day this year (don't judge me) and it was packed. I don't think I've ever seen a wait staff working so hard. I crushed a huge delicious plate of corned beef and cabbage (and some pub soup, uh duuuhhh) for only $14.95. OWNED. Things that rule: Pub Soup Irish Wake Sammich Corned Beef & Cabbage Pub Soup Onion Porter Soup Beer Battered Fries Homemade chips Pub Soup Guinness Beef Stew Fish & Chips Funny cat videos Probably everything else you could get your grubby little mitts on. I wish they could ship Pub Soup to Boston. I would fill a kiddie pool with it and splash around in there. I mean....ummm...I would eat it. read more

Used to be a favorite stop of mine but the menu has become a disappointment. Bring back the cheese sticks!!!!

Dugans is a good, casual place for lunch or dinner to get the Pinehurst experience at a very good price. I have been here multiple times on golf trips with friends and they are always accommodating even when we have large groups, and the restaurant is larger than it appears. The menu has plenty of choices ranging from your typical Irish Pub fare to what you would expect from any american sports bar all of which is very reasonably priced. Dugans also stays open later than a lot of places in the village so you can enjoy a few drinks at the bar with friends later on into the night. read more

Over a few days, had both dinner and lunch at Dugan's. The Pub Chicken Sandwich was huge and delicious. If you opt for the cole slaw, be aware that it is enough for two - or more - and very good. Also had a steak dinner that although fine, was not the best I've experienced. Cold beer and a good selection of alcohol. Very friendly, attentive and competent staff. Very reasonably priced, especially when compared to the hotel. Great location, just a couple blocks from the Carolina Hotel in Pinehurst. The market area is small inviting and a nice place to walk around. A sure return stop on my next visit. read more

Food was great, service was good. One of the best buffalo chicken sandwichs I've had, and I've had a lot. Seriously TREAT YOSELF TO THIS BUFFALO CHICKEN SANDWICH read more

Great food! Had the Irish Wake sandwich and Bread Pudding (which was the whole reason I came). And the live music was good as well (even if it wasn't Irish drinking tunes). Will definitely make the trip again. read more

My family was visiting here. It was like a 10 minute walk from where we were staying. The menu looked good and pescatarian friendly so we decided to check it out. Service was great and it was quiet during around 11:30. When we are in town next we are definitely coming here again. read more

Only place open on the Sunday afternoon we were there that we would have even entered. Service was nice, back room away from bar was pleasant and quiet. Food was plentiful servings and fare prices. Family of 4 ate for under $50. Banger Sandwiches were a hit. Volcano chocolate cake w/ scoop of ice cream was ''icing on the cake'' SaleebScore: service: 9/10, food: 8/10, Value 9/10. Not too shabby for a bar. read more

Great service goes alongside awesome food!! No matter when you go, you will always be greeted with a smile and welcoming atmosphere. They food is always hot and good.... There is something for every tastebud. read more

Great place with great history. If you are a golfer you have to come here. It's an icon in the Pinehurst area. Good beer selection, and good food. They have Guinness brand beer on tap. I had the fish and chips and it was pretty good. I've had fish & chips in the UK numerous times, and this is comparable. The service here is not bad; they can get you served even on packed nights. Neat place. read more

Great atmosphere, good food! Had lunch here on a recent trip to Pinehurst. This place had quick and friendly service during lunch and turned out a great meal and a great price. The Pub Chicken sandwich was a favorite at our table as well as the spicy buffalo chicken sandwich. They were both served with beer batter fries or choice of cole slaw for around $8.50. Everyone at our table opted for the fries so I don't know how good the slaw is, but it was recommended. Definitely would visit this place if in the area again, and don't miss the cupcake place behind it. read more

Best Buffalo Chicken Salad ever. Just enough kick to make you sweat. Try it with the blue cheese on the side.

Reason for visit: date night After having dinner and a few drinks somewhere else, we decided to finish the night here. It's always entertaining at Dougans. The food is pretty good, I love the fish and chips. We came here for a little bit of a nightlife and a final beer two before we went home. Upstairs very quiet at night but downstairs where the activity is. It's very unique to Pinehurst if you want a little bit more of a up-tempo crowd. One of the things you will notice about this place is the crowd downstairs. There is a mix of traveling golfers, and locals. If you are looking for golfers, or you're looking to hang out with your friends this is the place to go. We like to come here every once a while to people watch and have a few beers with the friendly staff. If you are in Pinehurst and are looking for a little bit louder music, a place where locals come for a beer and have fun, this is it. You won't go wrong. Make sure you say hello to the nice bartenders downstairs they work hard and they could use the tips. read more

I live in Pinehurst so I've been in every restaurant in town. I'll say this: Dugan's has the best burger in town. I like the mushroom swiss and a Guiness. Great! read more

Always great food. I had the Turben (turkey Ruben). It was tasty and had lots of shaved turkey! read more

Dugans Pub - A very colorful and well stocked "beverage station". - Irish Near Me - Pinehurst, North Carolina

This was the first place I ate at when I moved into Pinehurst. Prices seem fair and customer service was great. They should stop recommending the fish n chips. It's too simple to make, nothing special about it. It was good but hard to eat when oil is spewing out. I spoke with the manager. He seems cool. His kitchen staff has been with him for more than 20 years. That shows trust and good leadership. I would come here for the bar drinks and to support the American small business. MAGA read more

I purchased the beer battered cod and fries and they were both very tasty. The always welcome festive environment added to the experience. They provided a reliable meal. read more

This restaurant really hit the spot. Charli was our server and she anticipated every last need. Great service and great food!!

I'll give these guys a 4 only because, I came here all the time before COVID, however, came here tonite to see Frankie play, deciders to get something to eat... French onion soup which usually is awesome, but tonite... not so much, ate it anyway because o was hungry, however wasn't what I normally used to! Sorry facts are facts! I know everything has changed, however please keep the quality that I'm used to! Love you guys! read more

Pretty good food. Good beer on tap and a great go-to place for lunch. Service takes a while sometimes, but great servers. Soup specials have always been great as well as the fish and chips. A very "American" pub, but very good overall. read more

Truly a hidden gem in Pinehurst. Great food and great service. Food is always cooked fresh and never disappoints. best burger in Pinehurst! Dugans is a must go to if you are in the area. read more

Wow. What a hidden gem. To start... the crab cakes. I'd almost call them crab patties. They are packed with crab. Absolutely fantastic! The soups- delicious and not to be missed. The Fish & Chips/ the best I have found since visiting Ireland. Make this a stop and you won't bee disappointed. read more

Very disappointing evening. Spent $150 on drinks and they refused to refund my $10 deposit for darts when one of them broke in half through regular usage! The plastic literally broke. Absolutely horrible customer service and bad business! Will never go back! read more

Food was good, service was terrible very understaffed. They brought our drink order after 15 minutes saying "It's not exactly what you ordered, but it's something " read more

Dugan's never really dissapoints. Your run of the mill Irish bar - always loud, the way I like it. Cold beer and good food. Can't go wrong at this place. read more

Dugan's Pub hosted the gathering of family and friends after my Father's funeral in February . We had the entire pub area downstairs, which was perfect! Allen was great to work with, coming up with a fantastic buffet which had items to satisfy all. The staff was attentive and friendly and we were so pleased with how the afternoon turned out. Thanks Dugans! read more

The interior is not the most clean or up to date, a little more like an older pub, which is really what it is, so for me no big deal, I enjoy it. My service has been good both upstairs and downstairs. The food is consistent and I would have normally given them a 4 star but their soups and stews are exceptionally good and I would choose eating soup here over anywhere else, so that bumps them up to a 5 star. read more

Lunch was terrific. Service was excellent also. We love coming to Pinehurst and having a relaxing lunch here. read more

Dugans Pub - Irish Near Me - Pinehurst, North Carolina

My friend and I sat down at the bar top while we waited for a dining table. There were two bartenders working and neither of them acknowledged us in a timely manner. The male bartender then did ask us what we would like. It took him a minute to get a wine list to my friend and then he poured our drinks. Neither bartender offered us a dinner menu. We called out for another round of drinks and as soon as we got them the host notified us that there was a bar table ready for us upstairs. We closed out with our bartender and then sat down upstairs where the female bartender said she would be with us in a minute... 10-15 minutes later she stopped at our table and asked us if we were ready to order. Granted there was a full bar (which included six stools and every table was full - five tables, including ours). I also noticed about four other females with server attire on so I'm not sure why they were in the weeds... We ordered immediately and I also asked for two waters. 10 minutes later, we got our waters. After that the food came out in a timely manner. The blackened salmon was fantastic and my rib eye, ordered medium rare, came out medium but I didn't say anything or send it back - it was still very good. The vegetables that came on the side of both of our entrees consisted of broccoli and a couple of carrot and red bell pepper slices - not very tasty and neither were the mashed potatoes. The bartender who served us was friendly enough but based upon the service and the other employees, I would not go back to this place. read more

A great pub owned by a very nice guy, Alan. Charli, Rob and the other bartenders are great. The food isn't crazy expensive, especially for Pinehurst, and the atmosphere is relaxed. Definitely recommend this place for locals and visitors. read more

Dugan's Pub is our go-to Restuarant when we want to stay close to home and not compromise on quality and service. We are totally hooked on their beer battered fries and the Buffalo chicken sandwich is delicious! If you want ambiance galore, ask to be seated downstairs--it won't disappoint! read more
