    It still allows smoking and that adds to the authentic feel and small town bar.

    We arrived at the town square in Dahlonega and headed over to the Irish Pub Shenanigans. The…read morewaitstaff was friendly and polite. Tonight we were treated to live music in the pub. The drinks are always fun - look for seasonal specials. Our favorite app is "crack" dip - cream cheese, sausage and some other delicious ingredients. One favorite dinner entrees are Fish and Chips - the batter is crisp (so are the fries!) and the fish is fresh. Another favorite is the Beef Stew- a small but hearty portion , the gravy is divine. Don't skip dessert: the peanut butter pie !!

    You can find Shenanigans at 87 N Chestatee St Dahlonega, GA 30533.

I recently attended a wedding at Wolf Mountain Vineyards, and since I was staying in the nearby IHG/Holiday Inn Express (on the square) I stopped by Shenanigans to watch some great live music there and have a beer. As I was leaving the next day I hit the place again for lunch before hitting the road back to Atlanta. This is a pretty classic Irish Pub more suited to college students getting their buzz-on. I had been told that the food was good and surprisingly, yes the Reuben Sandwich I ordered was exceptional - juicy pile of corned beef sauteed with kraut and Russian Dressing on marbled rye. I ordered mine with a side of broccoli to maintain the semblance of eating healthy. The service was really good considering I was one of the first two people there (seating took a minute) with a great server who came by frequently to make sure my needs were met. The food came out almost instantly - less than 5 minutes after I ordered, with a steaming sandwich and veg. I plan to explore this place more the next time I'm in town.
