The salad was very good!
Stacy A.

We stopped by for dinner St. Patrick Day weekend. I was hoping for some food specials but all they had was green beer. I don't love the inside, a bit dingy and loud, but the patio is very nice! The happy hour appetizers were tasty, especially the pretzel sticks and fries. I also like the salad but would probably ask for more dressing next time. They were busy but the service on the patio was pretty slow.

Best pretzels ever with cheese sauce and mustard.

Five Stars! We've been eating at Kip's Irish Pub for many years, and we have never been disappointed. This most recent visit just confirmed why we keep coming back. We were in a hurry and let our server know - she was fantastic and immediately helped us choose items that would come out quickly. Our food arrived in record time, and we were in and out in about 20 minutes. The pretzel sticks are, by far, the best we've ever had -perfectly warm, soft, and absolutely addictive! The option between dipping in cheese sauce or mustard was the hardest part about eating these. We also loved the hummus platter (it came with some unique and tasty pairings) and the Irish egg rolls, which were delicious. Honestly, we've tried most items on the menu over the years, and everything has been great. (But the pretzels are a must every time!) The wait staff is consistently friendly and attentive, and we really appreciate how genuinely kind everyone is. Kip's is one of those places that gets it right every single time. We'll continue going again and again. Highly recommend!

Pretzel appetizer

Review from a first timer trying it out as an early week birthday celebration dinner! Vibe - It's giving upscale bar... I loved the set up and see it being a cool spot for special dinners and football Sundays alike! There were a decent amount of people there on a Tuesday evening, and it seemed like they frequent the place haha. Food - The pretzel appetizer was tasty, really good pretzels! I had the 10oz steak dinner, it was nothing special but good. Would recommend trying one of their more specialty dishes. Service - Friendly & quick. Parking in hotel lot was easy enough. Prices - High. But as I alluded, it makes for a good spot for a more-affordable special occasion dinner, and I think they have a happy hour as well worth taking advantage of!

Guinness

Came here while staying at the hotel for work. Guinness was honestly awesome. Very crisp with great shtick, as you can see in the picture (8.9/10). French onion soup was good, but the bread was under the cheese and very soggy by the time I got to it. I'm a fan of places that put the bread on top so you can dunk it and decide how soggy to let it get (7.1/10). The cod fish was very good and I really enjoyed the tatar sauce /(8.3/10). The fries could've been crispier but I do like the Irish style (6.7/10). Old fashioned was meh (4.3/10). Barman was very nice and attentive. Ambiance is is that of a typical Irish live. Nothing overly cool, but no complaints.

Good ambiance. Good food. Presentation was nice. Facility was clean. Staff was nice.

Avocado BLT- fries were lukewarm ,sandwich too big and a little dry

Just an average bar- service was extremely slow even though it was not very busy not sure if they are understaffed Food was okay- very big portions so be aware when ordering There are better Irish bars in the city I prefer If I was staying at the hotel attached to here I would maybe eat here again but otherwise I wouldn't come out of my way to dine here again- not memorable

Entrance to Kip's
Steve G.

I stayed at the Courtyard in the Twin Cities area for a work trip recently. It's connected to a Marriott proper and the two hotels share amenities. One of them is a restaurant/bar at the Marriott called Kip's Irish Pub. I was feeling lazy after a 5+ hr car trip and decided to have dinner there. First off, I wasn't expecting the nice decor and theme of the place. Despite being called an Irish Pub, I figured it'd be more bland. But from the nice wood-heavy entrance onward, it was a cool looking place. Waiter was really friendly and attentive. I got a hummus platter for an appetizer as well as a buffalo chicken sandwich. The food wasn't out of this world, but didn't need to be. It was a perfectly good meal after a long trip. I'm playing to stay at this Courtyard regularly for my trips to the area, and I'd have no problem stopping at Kip's again. I'd summarize it was "solid" all around.

Huge bar top surrounded by TVs, lots of Irish decor, and cute booths that really lean into the theme. Unfortunately, things started off a little rough. The person I met there waited over 10 minutes at the host stand before anyone acknowledged them. I totally understand hosts may be on break or helping elsewhere, but with the restaurant nearly empty it was surprising that no bartender or server stepped in. Once we were seated, it also took a while before our server came by. That said, our server ended up being super friendly and attentive the rest of the visit. We ordered an Irish lemonade, a cold beer, and the Gaelic Whiskey Bites. They were exactly what you'd expect with an extra crunchy exterior, but the sauce was actually really good! Honestly made me wish I had tried a burger with that sauce instead, but we weren't hungry enough for more food. Overall, it's a decent neighborhood Irish bar, but nothing really stood out to me. I'd probably come back for the patio or on St. Patrick's Day!

2026 Dive Bar 3 of 40…read more Just off Main Street, you will find this corner bar not far from the river. Upon entering, you will notice a small bar with an adequately stocked bar, featuring about 8 taps and a number of canned and bottled beers for your liking. There are plenty of high-top tables and booths to accommodate a decent crowd. MaGillycuddy's Bar is one of those places that instantly makes you want to settle in and stay awhile. The atmosphere strikes that perfect balance between cozy and relaxed, thanks in no small part to the awesome tin ceiling-- it kind of gives this place a vintage charm you don't see often. The crowd is just what one would expect, just regular folks enjoying a libation and watching the Wild game. And they have pulltabs!! We settled in on a high-top table and ordered beers and our lunch. The Nashville Hot Shrimp is a must-try. just the right amount of heat, and packed with flavor. The Guinness cheeseburger is an open-faced burger topped with fries, Guinness cheese sauce, and, of course, bacon. That was a bit messy, and was enjoyable, but there are some other items I will want to try before going back to that entree. Between the solid food offerings, the friendly vibe, and the cool interior, MaGillycuddy's has all the makings of a local favorite. If you're anywhere near Aonka, do yourself a favor and stop in--you won't regret it.

No frills local vintage bar - 4 stars…read more I suppose many people would call this a dive bar. I feel it's more like a time machine. You walk through the front door and you take a trip back in time. This is a drinker's bar, beer and spirits only - no food at all - other than snacks like small bags of chips. McCabe's is very small, unpretentious, and friendly. The coolest thing is the drive-up liquor store. You drive up to the window and the bartender inside hears a "ding" like the old time gas stations. Actually, it really IS an old gas station bell. (Check out my photos for an inside view of the mini-liquor store.) I've been here twice. The first time was only a brief visit to check it out and to get directions. But I returned today as a customer and I was amazed that the bartender remembered my name, remembered where I was from, and remembered what I asked him the first time. Impressive! (Maybe he just remembered my ugly mug.) Overall, like most places in New Richmond, I'm struck by how friendly and respectful everyone is. This is in huge contrast to my native Minnesota. It really makes be question the whole "Minnesota Nice" thing. It might really be "Wisconsin Nice". I'd come here any time to hang out with friends. - Maxx

However today has caused me to give O'Brien's one star and believe me if it were possible I'd give them -1. I was supposed to meet six of my friends here today for St Patrick's Day. Our car got struck and we did not arrive until 1 1/2 hours late. We were so late that we would have just had a drink had we known there was a time limit on the table BUT our waitress, Addison 8, did not mention this and took our meal order leisurely. Just after we were served she announced to the table that we all had to leave in 15 minutes. I said I assumed it did not apply to us as we had not even started to eat. she told us it applied to all of us. She told us if I was not happy about this I could speak to the Manager. I told her I would like to. then she said I could speak to her instead but I told her I wanted to speak to the Manager. No Manager ever materialized. I probably will never go to this restaurant again. I know times are tough and I don't object to time limits on tables BUT if a customer is very late the least a server should do is let them know there is a very limited time left for them to eat BEFORE they order $70 worth of food and drinks. I will be sure to mention this matter to my friends and as I have stated i will make sure I give my other regular restaurants the business I gave O'Briens. '

Their patio is SO cute with lots of plants, a great atmosphere, and the perfect vibe. The service was also excellent--our waitress was super attentive, checked in often, and gave us some great recommendations. We both ordered vanilla iced lattes, which were good but a little too milky for my taste. For lunch, I got the Thai Peanut Salad, and it was exactly what I was looking for--fresh, flavorful, and light. My only complaint is that I wish it had a bit more protein to help balance out all the veggies and make it a little more filling.

My forever favorite app to start the meal is the Pull-Apart bread, it is the BEST! It is so warm and soft.

Same with the BLT sandwich, it was a little bland. The sandwich itself was very thick and kind of hard to bite into. Overall, still a good lunch and would go back again to try something else! I'm also intrigued by the brunch menu, which I found out they offer their full brunch on Sundays.
