    Finnegan's Road is located at Lincoln Road Mall...this is a nice little dive bar to take a break from shopping or walking. This Irish themed bar has plenty of seating available indoors and outdoors. We stopped by here to grab some beers and bar food on a sunny December day. Popcorn Chicken: The popcorn chicken was pretty good. There was plenty of chicken meat for 'popcorn' chicken and the chicken was pretty juicy. Mozzarella sticks: Fried perfectly, nothing like taking down sticks of cheese with marinara sauce The beer offerings is pretty extensive here at Finnegan's. Tons of IPAs, stouts and beers from different regions. We sat at the bar and our bartender was friendly. She would disappear for awhile so we didn't get all the refills we wanted from the tap. That probably ended up working out for us because we only had 2 beers vs 4 beers. If you need a quick drink for whatever reason and you're at Lincoln Road Mall...this is an adequate bar to take a break from shopping or walking. Cheers!

    This is so crazy I've been a Finnegan's regular for over 4 years. I went by tonight with a group of friends and it started raining. While standing on the side of the door waiting for the rain to stop, the general manager who was sitting in a table with his partner both yelled at us quite rudely and told my friends and I to move from the doorway. We were confused because we were only standing there during the rain. It was only natural for us to respond and say "hey we are just waiting for the rain to stop" but their response was "well then buy a drink" Excuse me!?! We already did and how is it ok to be rude knowing it's raining to say buy a drink to stand for a few minutes while the rain stopped. This is just quite disappointing. Finnegans is my mid stopping point to buy drinks every time I'm walking Lincoln road so it was seriously embarrassing to have my friends experience this as I was giving them a tour of Lincoln road. BTW the people in the pics are the ones I'm talking about. I was very disappointed by this experience and am reconsidering whether I will spend my money here again!

    Came to watch some football with friends on Sunday. I don't watch football let's just say I joined them. It was ok, staff was friendly. Bud light was handing out free beers which was great. Awkward was I went to the bathroom then noticed there was no paper so had to wait there until someone else came in hahaha only me :)... anyway please check your nasty bathrooms thanks

    Had a fun time at this Pub on a Saturday afternoon. It' situated on a corner of the very busy and restaurant-heavy Lincoln Road Mall. Containing a fair-sized menu of tasty Pub-Grub, the location has big screen TV's and a pool table. Beers cost us $6.50 for Draft Imports, Mixed drinks set us back anywhere from $11-14. Many of their mixes with Irish cream and amaretto, including the B-52 and some of the bombs, were very flavorful. My favorite drinks, however, were the beers. Being in an IPA mood, we gravitated towards Lagunitas, Endless, and Brooklyn IPAs - all were delicious cold pints straight from the tap - very satisfying. We also had a Guinness, which hit the spot. All of this was paired with some of their famous Buffalo Wings, which had a fantastically crispy batter. The philly cheese steak egg roll was also quite good. The biggest detractor I think would be the cost of the mixed drinks - with a Manhattan costing $14. In total, 5 drinks and 3 food items set us back about $100. It was very enjoyable though and we had a great time. Some specials on mixed drinks would be welcome, as well some more hot sauces for their great wings. All in all, a good place, I would definitely come back when I'm in the area for beers and wings.

    Yes it's touristy because it's on Lincoln Rd so it gets an unfairly number of bad reviews by people who have seldom or never reviewed on Yelp. But for us locals during the slower season, we love it. Great service, delicious fish and chips and cold beer.

    This place literally has to be supported on drug money, because I cannot fathom how they operate as a legitimate business. The waitresses are rude and snarky, and possibly allergic to work due to how little they're actually around (even during slow periods). The only reason I've come multiple times is because they're right across the street from our office. Let me tell you, every time it's a different issue - but there's always the same rude absurdity. This time around, multiple servers mentioned 50% off bar food when asked. Hell, food specials are even mentioned on their menu. When check time came around, we were told that there have never been happy hour food specials. One of the servers called individuals in our group liars and got confrontational, saying "what you're just trying to get free food??". Honestly just overall trashy behavior. When I pointed out what was mentioned on the menu, the manager said "oh that's from a long time ago." Point is, if you're looking for the Jerry Springer of dive bars, but not as entertaining, you might have an ok time here... Otherwise, do yourself a favor and eat/drink literally anywhere else on Lincoln Road.

    Was in town for vacation and came to happy hour. We ordered Moscow miles and the appetizer platter that they had. For a quick bite it was good. You can't go wrong with chicken, fries, mozzarella sticks, and Moscow mules.

    Cute lil place. They seen to have a nice schedule of weekly events. While on vacation my family and…read moreI had dinner here. It was their trivia night, I believe there was a $1500 pot if you win. Everyone seemed to be playing. We arrived to late to join. The place was packed yet there were only two servers. Our server was running around like a chicken with her head cut off. However she managed to keep up with out party of 9. There were times we were waiting for assistance however we could see she wasn't just sitting on her ass. We order burgers, flat breads, tenders and steak tacos. Steak tacos were horrible Burgers were delicious Flatbread were good Tenders definitely looked like they were frozen tenders from the grocer. The beverages were nice not too strong but not weak. We were kinda profiled however as a black person you get use to it. My husband and brother stepped out for a smoke break..although everyone else was still seated at the table. We watched security run out after them. We laughed cause they looked stupid. When security ran out there they pretended to be looking at something when they noticed they guys were right outside the door. Irish pub we didn't expect any less. However it was kinds funny how the guy darted out after them then aimlessly looked around after he realized they were smoking a cigarette ‍

    I wanted to write this place off as a touristy haunt given its location and its typical South Beach…read moreprices, but we had a really good experience here. I realized that I had not actually been to this location since it was The Playwright (or whatever it was called) 4 or 5 years ago. The updated interior is nice - very "pubby" - and they offer a good variety of seating from bar seats to high-tops to couches. Two things here that were standouts: First, the burger is one of the best burgers I've had on South Beach. So much so that I'm craving it again this morning. They've done a good job with the menu in that it still has all those bar foods that you look for in a place like this, but they've put some thought into elevating a number of items (e.g. the short rib poutine!) Second, the service was great. Our server (sorry, can't remember his name - a nice guy from Kendall) was very friendly and provided excellent service. As many reviews mention, this is definitely a place to watch a game. While we weren't there for this purpose last night, the TV setup is great and I could def see myself camping out there with a few beers on a weekend afternoon. As someone who lives in the neighborhood, I'll be back again for sure.

    First and foremost, do not waste your time or money coming here…read more As a Miami native, I was genuinely disappointed by both the food and the level of service. Unfortunately, neither lived up to expectations. We started with the "jumbo" wings, which were anything but jumbo. We received only flats, and they were some of the smallest wings I've ever been served. After bringing this to the staff's attention, we were told the manager would take 50% off the order. However, when the bill arrived, we were informed that the manager had already left and the discount could no longer be honored. Instead, we were given only the $4 happy hour discount, despite being promised otherwise. For our entrées, we ordered the brisket sandwich and the half chicken. Neither was worth ordering. The chicken lacked the crispy texture it was advertised to have, and the brisket was bland and without flavor. The sandwich was also supposed to come with truffle fries, but instead we were served cold, plain fries. After mentioning it, the solution was to bring us a side of truffle oil and Parmesan cheese and ask us to mix it ourselves. The service was equally disappointing. We asked our server twice for drink refills, but she never brought them. We eventually had to flag down another server just to get our beverages refilled. Overall, this was a frustrating dining experience from start to finish. Between the poor-quality food, unfulfilled promises regarding the bill, and inattentive service, this restaurant fell well below the standard I would expect from a Miami establishment. I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience deserves one. I sincerely hope management addresses these issues because the current level of food quality and customer service is simply unacceptable. and quality is embarrassing for miami.

    Great nostalgia and drinks but their gratuity practice is a serious problem…read more I stopped by Wet Willie's out of nostalgia during my most recent visit. Years ago I'd come here after the beach, sit on the balcony, people-watch, and cool off with a strong, frozen drink. In that sense, the place is exactly as I remember, with cold drinks on a hot Miami day and a fun atmosphere. Unfortunately, the billing experience completely changed how I felt about our visit. When the check arrived, I noticed the suggested tip percentages were unusual (around 7%, 8%, and 9%). I was planning to leave my normal 20% tip, but then the gentleman behind the bar explained that a 15% gratuity had already been added and the listed percentages would be additional. To be clear: I always tip, and I generally tip well. But adding a gratuity without authorization or clearly disclosing it up front is a big deal. A tip is supposed to be voluntary, and quietly including one, especially in a setting where you're already prompted to add more, feels misleading and wildly inappropriate. That part honestly overshadowed the visit for me. The drinks and the memories are still there, but check your bill carefully before paying. I enjoyed the nostalgia, yet this practice alone makes me hesitant to return. This practice of discretely tipping themselves is borderline theft.
