A classic sports bar to watch games and vibe. Solid service and bar food. We come here pretty often at this point. Recommend their beers on tap (per my husband, I'm a beer hater) and pizzas! read more

Ordered take out for custom pizza - Location is along Shephard, parking along the side lot, or neighborhood roads. Took about 20 minutes for the pizza. Walked into the bar, clean, with tv's on the walls, bar in the center, bartender was receptive. The pizza was more like flat bread and was notably not greasy - thin crust with decent toppings. The family was a fan of the pizza, i've been back twice already for a quick snack. Easy, Efficient, Tasty. read more

Nice Irish Pub with great pizza. The ambience was great too. Will definitely be back with the guys.

Ordered 2 large pizzas ( 1 pepperoni, 1 chicken to go) as a Chicagoan by birth, tavern style is in my soul. This pizza did not make the cut. Minimum sauce, chicken was dry and the crust was like cardboard. I rather had Dominos and I haven't had Dominos in years. read more

Loved stumbling into this establishment. Great staff. Amazing service. Will definitely be returning in the near future. read more

Keneally’s Irish Pub - Kilkenny Irish Res Ale - Pizza Near Me - Houston, Texas

Been a customer for a long time. It's a go to for me and my family. Pizza is great and beer is always cold.

I had forgotten about this cozy and pleasant Irish pub since my last visit was at least 25 years ago. Last night we had a group of about a dozen, and our server took care of us perfectly. Of course, I had to drink a nice black and tan which I had not had in a long time. We ordered five different pizzas so that everybody could have a taste of each one. I think my favorite was the shamrock pizza. I am looking forward to our return visit when the weather turns cool and I can bring the dog to sit on the patio . read more

Pretty nice and cozy Irish Pub. They have a nice indoor setting as well as a patio. First time here and made a massive party foul by knocking over my glass of beer immediately after getting it! Bartender was super cool about it and gave me another one. Definitely coming back. read more

I had a chance to stop in on a beautiful sunny and hot hot day. I ordered a Guinness and it was just what I needed. The Beatles were playing in the background and it was just an overall great vibe in this pub. Played a game of darts and then sat back at the bar and conversed with a couple at the bar enjoying what they say one of the best places to eat some wings. The pizza oven was fired up, but I had already eaten so next time. I highly recommend this pub. Stop in and have a pint, play some darts, listen to some good music, and strike up a conversation with someone at the bar. Either way you will have a good time. read more

We really miss great Chicago food/Midwest style pizza and we were so happy to find Kenneally's. Delicious, thin, cracker crisp crust with delicious sauce and toppings. We love the Italian sausage and black olives but it's all great! We also love the bar itself- it's a great place to eat and service is always friendly. The bar reminds us of any old Chicago bar that's been there forever- and in Houston years- it has! It's a cozy and comfortable space- always worth the trip when we're craving the real thing! read more

Ok I'm updating my review because I have been eating here a lot and damn the burger couldn't be tastier. Thick and juicy. The pizza crust, angels sing when I get a piece. Seriously come here and drink, eat and be merry. Or be sad. It's an Irish pup after all. read more

One of my favorite Irish pubs in Houston. The atmosphere is so cute and comfortable to hangout with friends. They also have some of the best bar food in Houston! We loved the Hangover specialty pizza (jalapeños, bacon, sausage, and pepperoni) and mini corn dogs with a cold beer! The pizza crust must be homemade and the sauce is so yum! The mini corn dogs came out hot and crispy with a side of yellow mustard, they were sooo good!! Can't wait to come back here again! read more

What a blast this place was!!! We had so much fun with our friends tonight. We were looking for places to go and hang out, have some drinks, take in some sights... and when it was suggested to go to an Irish Pub on our first night in TX... I was thinking, "Really? That's where we're going?" Man... I'm so glad that's what we did! We had so many laughs, it was a great comfortable atmosphere, where we sat outside and chilled the whole night with appetizers and drinks! Our server... she was awesome! Witty, a bit snarky, and provided enough entertainment with her humor. The bar tender knew his drinks and kept them flowing all night! We even had some entertainment when a group of firemen walked by in a pack, and sung some holiday cheer for the group. Just down right fun all around as you can tell from the pictures... it's all about #onelove and #Fam. Not too mention, we were in town for the Seahawks vs Texans game at NRG Stadium. (Hawks won for anyone keeping count). The food is a bit interesting, but not a diverse Irish cuisine... but I was digging the Irish Nachos... a completely different take. The pizza was great and the wings too. Ending with this... Time is short... surround yourself with true good friends that you call Family... and enjoy each other! As always... Enjoy and Happy Celebrating!! read more

Pretty good pizza, cold beers, friendly staff. Keneally's is worth a visit. I really like the shamrock pizza, as far as I know this is the only place in town with a pizza like that. The regulars are friendly, too. It's a good little spot. read more

Great long standing establishment that has not gone in quality. Pizza is absolutely phenomenal. Chase it down with their great selection of cold beer. Only wish they had a bigger parking lot but can't complain as it's in a high rent area. I've been coming here for over 20+ years. read more

I wish there was a candle that smelled like this place when you walk in. I would burn it 24/7. Air freshener for the car, cologne, laundry detergent? I'll take it all. It just takes me to a good spot when I smell this pizza joint. Technically it's an Irish pub but we go mainly for the Midwest style pizza. We live in The Woodlands so we do not get here as much as we would like but each time we do it has been a hit. After seeing Aladdin at Sarofim Hall in Houston I expected my wife would want to go somewhere else because we were dressed nice and in the big city with endless options for dining. We were tossing ideas at each other for far too long when she said "or we could go to Kenneally's." Before she could change her mind I hit the gas and made a bee line for the cramped little parking lot that sits behind this glorious bar. We had pepperoni and sausage on the whole pie and green olives (her thing) on half. The mother in law had a corned beef sandwich that was decent as well. We devoured that pizza leaving only the magic dust on the tray behind. (See pic). Will. Be. Back. read more

Kenneally's--for me--is one of those bars that never disappoints, but I still somehow always forget about. So I guess there is no real "wow factor" that keeps me coming back religiously like some other bars. I will say, however, that I've always had attentive service from cocktail waitresses and bartenders, patio is semi-spacious, they've got darts, the beer is cold and the pizza! Oh, the pizza. With its thin crust and served piping hot, you'll enjoy this bar treat. I need to revisit soon and sink my pearly whites into some of this goodness. If the Kenneally's folks catch this, I hope they put some tables out in front of the pub. The patio is okay, but I'm a sunbathing kind of person, on a beautiful afternoon, this would be pleasant (the patio, partially covered up, is usually occupied--at least the sunny spots.). read more

Fun st Patrick's day party. The green beer and jello shots are hard to beat. Nice crowd too. And decent live music outside. I'll have to check it out when it's not st Patty's day. +1 for a drunk cougar trying to pay me to take a picture with her friend because it was her birthday and I look like a celebrity. Can't make stuff like that up. Fun times, cool neighborhood bar. Didn't try the pizza but I hear it's great. read more

Decided to meet some friends who were there for the Thursday night bingo. It was everything you would expect from an Irish pub. Bordering on the edge of almost a dive but not quite, It had the quintessential bar dank smell of wood with a hint of mildew. We ordered the pizza which was thin crust and better than expected for bar food. I may have to try it again sober to be sure! Everything tastes amazing drunk. Played a few rounds of bingo and actually won on my second sheet! Woo-hoo! Definitely will be coming back for some more debauchery. read more

I am new to the bar scene. This was based only about the service and the food I received. I was here to meet my new Yelp friends for a quick bite before a midnight movie. The parking wasn't the issue. It was a sign to tell me the options. My SUV would definitely not going to fit in those spaces, nor simply driving around the building. Considered being one of the oldest bars in town, the layout of bathroom was awkward and not handicap-friendly. The uneven floor gave me a nostalgic feeling as in the countryside. I ordered mini corn dogs and Irish Nachos. Thanks to Rachel B. for introducing the key ingredient - potato, as the Irish stable. I would never know why these thinly sliced potatoes swimming in grease and layered with gooey cheese, jalapeño and cubed meat. The waiter was working hard without any help. I did not fault him for not bringing a napkin to wipe my greasy hands. read more

This is one that I've been meaning to get to. Took off a star because of the way they handled the mask thing a couple of years back. When you walk in the door it's like three feet to get to the bar. I went in and sat down. The bartender asked, "what's your problem?" I didn't really think I had one, so I just waited for him to tell me what it was. I'd have felt pretty stupid if I'd told him what I thought it might have been when, in his view, it might have been something entirely different. Thankfully, he was eager to oblige. "Unless you're sitting down, you have to wear a mask," he snapped. "I am sitting down," I explained. "Not when you came in. Do you even watch the news?" I don't watch the news. I wanted to tell him that his complaint was so 3 feet ago. I wanted to go back out and come back in again, scooting on my ass through the door. I wanted to see what would happen if I decided to stand at the bar right next to the stool. Then I wondered how the whole world had lost its fucking mind, collectively. I wanted to rename America "Hypochondria". Mostly I knew it was best to just order my to go pizza, and a Guinness to sip on while I waited for it to be ready. Anyway, it's a good pizza--really good. I love the place, aesthetically: It's dark and clean, and the bar staff is probably fully vaccinated and boosted. They are quite a friendly bunch, actually--even the masked marvel back there. He'd been nice enough in our previous exchanges, and has been during all of the ones since. Anyway, I shouldn't have complained so much in this review. I should just be thankful that during the "pandemic" nearly everyone I encountered was practically a professor of actual science and were willing to edify maskless, unperforated rubes like myself every time I stepped outside my house. And I witnessed some amazing things during that period: I saw an obese man peddling on something like an adult tricycle down Heights Blvd against traffic in the rain. He was wearing a surgeon's mask. I saw another man on a crotch rocket weaving through freeway traffic. He wasn't wearing a helmet, but he was wearing a mask. I saw a lady remove her mask briefly to take a drag off her cigarette, pull it back onto her face, and exhale into it. But most importantly, I'll say this again: Keneally's has a very fine pizza--a five STAR pizza. read more

While sitting at the bar waiting for friends to play Bingo. The owner was extremely rude and crude to a former employee who came in for his last paycheck. She refused to pay him!!! Her words "You Shit on me I Shit on you" I was SHOCKED that the owner would treat anyone that way!!! I texted my friends told them do not come to meet me at another location. WE WILL NEVER COME BACK!!! How DARE you treat anyone like that extremely UNPROFESSIONAL. Stay AWAY from this place!!! read more

I came here recently with a few friends. We had already been drinking and trying to wind it down. There kitchen stays open pretty late so we sampled a few of their items. I had their Irish nachos. It was different, but I enjoyed it! I also, had their specialty pizza which is the shamrock special. It comes with corned beef on top! I would have never though to use that as a topping. Be careful it comes out piping hot, I burned the roof of the my mouth. read more

Vibe is good, but costumer service is awful. Asked for two vodka rebulls and got them in a tall glass, with a can for each glass. When we brought it to the bartender's attention that we really didn't want so much red bull, she asked if we were looking for more vodka. Nooo, I was looking for exactly what I asked for, a vodka red bull in equal parts. Instead of correcting the drink, she told us that putting a vodka red bull in a tall glass was how they made them, and to next time ask for a vodka Red Bull in a short glass. Well thanks. I appreciate the advice, but I won't be back to put it into use. read more

Place is huge. Plenty of room to spread out. Service is absurdly slow so be prepared to wait.
