    The food was really good,,Bree the server was amazing. That girl was attentive, and wanted to make sure that the visit and her presence was known. Played some old school music and the restaurant was clean and had a great time and will definitely return the next time. I am in the area.

    Great environment

    Chasity is absolutely amazing and the food is amazing as well she needs and deserves a raise 110 percent

    First experience was phenomenal! Went back for Wednesdays special BOGO on wings. They were mid. We asked for extra crispy and went, and they weren't either. We will be giving them another shot though, maybe they were having a bad day. I love the outdoor seating when the smokers aren't around

    3 different types of wings. GREAT bar bites menu all day!

    We had excellent service at this local watering hole. We sat at the bar where everyone was very friendly, both the locals and the bartender who I think is also the General Manager! The bar has a bar bites menu that is a great deal! Sitting at the bar, they have 3 TVs of sports playing. They have several draft beers - about 1/3 of them are craft drafts, Scofflaw, Allagash, etc. We ordered 4 orders of the bar bites wings and fries! Their fries are heavily breaded and tasty. They have great ranch dressing. I highly recommend. We ordered their traditional wings with sweet heat sauce, traditional wings with ray ray sauce (a garlic and blue cheese chunky mixture), and smoked wings with signature house sauce. We liked them in that order. We got 2 plates of the sweet heat. We ate every bit. The wings run on the smaller side so order more than you think. They have a great flavor and we're too dry or anything. We don't mind smaller wings. We will definitely be back when we're in the area. We don't have kids but it's notable they have a little arcade room and lots of booths, so I think it's very family friendly!

    Does anyone think it's strange they keep mayo on the tables? Sorry but that's not safe! The food was just ok.

    Shenanigans food is things dreams are made of. The Potato Poppers were fresh and had just a bit of…read moreheat... not unbearable on the tongue at all. The Steak & Spuds fell in to my husband's mouth at a rapid pace that the song of Florence & The Machine's Dog Days Are Over rang out like an anthem. Their brown gravy is just. Like. my. Irish. Mother's. Impeccable and rich. My Shepherds Pie was delicious and although the cheese was a little intimidating, perfectly balanced. My Smithwick's Irish Ale was the perfect accompaniment with the food. Our server was in training. We sat outside and he and his trainer quickly approached us to take our drink order and make recommendations. They were attentive and pleasant. We wouldn't have known he was in training! The bonus is they have their own parking lot so it's easy to roll on out to your car from app the good eats!

    I've come here a few times but to be honest, it's usually been after drinking around town and at…read morelocal wineries so food quality wasn't a big deal. This time we came after hiking all day and sat outside with our dogs. Ambiance-touristy Irish pub. It's a big place that still tries to be Irish-ish. They fail but it's a worthwhile effort and people seem to like it. One issue with the design-it's a huge place but they have 2-single person bathrooms-one next to the bar and one on the second floor. I don't even understand how you get a building permit with that occupancy and so few bathrooms. My wife and I each got a burger, sub veggie patty. They are getting 2 stars for the fact they don't upcharge for the vegan patty. Everyone upcharges for a veggie burger, so this is an impressive give-a-way to customers. However, I added mushrooms and roasted red peppers, which added $2 each, and gluten free sandwich bread, which was a $5 upcharge. First, those veggies should not be a $2 upcharge each. That's obnoxious. Your menu burgers have toppings and are cheaper than a plain burger with 2 veggies. But, I am not taking stars away for the upcharge. I saw them, I accepted them. My problem is that with those changes, this was a $25 burger at an Irish pub in north GA and it tasted like a $5 burger from an Irish pub in north GA. It was dry, unseasoned, and very bland. You charged me $5 for 2 slices of bread from a loaf that costs $7.99 retail. A red pepper is $0.75 cents, maybe, retail, and for a couple teaspoons you charged me $2. Who knows what mushrooms cost, but the point is, for two toppings and sub 2 slices of sandwich bread, you charged me for a high-end steakhouse burger and served me a terrible backyard grill burger. On top of that, I ordered a whiskey (knob creek) on the rocks. On my check was a $2 rocks charge. So...you charged me $2 for ice? It makes no sense. It's the same amount of liquor. When I asked the server about it, she said because they pour an extra 2 ounces in. Obviously she lied because she had no clue what she was talking about. First, why would adding ice equal and extra 2 ounces? Maybe if I asked for an up martini or something, but I am adding volume, so why would you also add liquor? Second, my whiskey was $13 and a restaurant shot is 1, maybe 1.5 ounces. Do you really mean to tell me you gave me an extra 2 shots, maybe an extra 1.33 shots of a $13 liquor for $2 only because I asked for ice? I'm not an idiot. So, poor food, lying service, and unreasonable upcharges. I'm not coming back
