We were called to West Chicago for an emergency and hadn't eaten all day. Upon finishing, Dr…read more Robert insisted we hold out for a ride to St. Charles and the world's greatest Irish pub. Heard that before, Rob. McNally's is cute and all but nothing like the greats. It has a comfy cozy atmosphere that, initially, I found relaxing. Then the server showed-up with a nasty disposition and the patience of a child. After waiting entirely too long for a check-up, I ended up asking the bartender for a refill. How hard is it to just grab the server and tell her to add a drink to our tab? No can do. I was dismissed, very short and coarsely, and told to order it through my waitress. The saving grace was their menu and quality of food. The scotch egg, shepherd's pie boxty and the Guinness chocolate mousse were spot on. I had a bite of their bangers and mash and easily could order that, too. I didn't handle the bill but I can tell you the place is pricey and there's not enough here to justify it. Obviously, we didn't say a thing to the good doctor but this place is mediocre at best. 02/26

I was craving corn beef, cabbage and red potatoes. The only item that was cooked correctly were the potatoes, melted butter added to the taste. As far as the cabbage, all taste cooked out of it. The beef was as dry as shoe leather (dried out and hard) and had absolutely no taste what so ever. Salt and pepper could not even bring any flavor. An Irish restaurant that can't cook a staple on its menu. Wait Service was adequate yet not exceptional. Menu listing.

The cocktails are not good. They have essentially no local beer. Maybe a single token brewery but I can't even recall what it would have been. And then they randomly close whenever they want instead of staying open their posted hours. The bartender looked like she hates her job and the owner or manager was just obviously in a bad mood when we were there last. We bought drinks at 10:15 and heard "last call" literally 5 minutes later. And 5 minutes after that they were rushing everyone out of the bar. Meanwhile their hours were open til midnight posted in multiple locations, I checked. I asked when they closed and the bartender just said "soon". Awful place and awful service.
