I had just arrived in town and I was hungry. Thankfully, a family member had this diner on their…read moremust-try list, and it went pretty well. We all ordered something different with the goal of being able to taste more of the menu. The menu is a well-rounded Southern American selection, and all of it is made in-house. It was a nice touch with the newspaper like menu, loved the decor and cabin home theme. The side salad was fresh; however, the house-made ranch was too creamy and too thick. There was potential with the cooked bacon mixed in, but the ranch flavor was missing. The cup of chili was great, similar to Wendy's chili if you needed a comparison. My meatloaf was good; the added carrots and topped crispy onions weren't too bad; however, the drizzled brown gravy was a no for me. The side of creamy grits and green beans and bacon were gobbled up! The cornbread muffins were a bit dry. Side of hash browns were good, a little on the oily side. The biscuit and gravy were colossal! Loved the gravy; the biscuits were a bit too doughy, almost seemed a bit undercooked, and for some reason, there seemed to be a lack of flavor in them. Enjoyed the ham and eggs. The pot roast dish was savory, and everything was nice; the veggies were a little over-seasoned, but I didn't mind them. The chicken-fried steak plate was a hit, I didn't even get a chance to take a solo photo. We had no room for desserts, and leftovers were taken home and appreciated. I'd like to add, despite ordering the larger versions of these meals, we only paid $68 and some change! The place was clean, the wait time was commendable, and the service was incredible!!! Despite the small misses, we'd still return. The majority of our food was great, and we left fuller than ever!

Tip ... stick with the Irish specials on the menu, that's where the gold at the end of the rainbow is to be found! Service is stellar! We had lunch and a dinner there, both were very good! Scotch Eggs .... good here! Shepard's Pie... to die for! Fish and chips, equally good! The Irish nachos are a "must have" ... get the 1/2 order, it's huge unless you're feeding an army! Steak just OK! Fried shrimp... just OK. Good place just hang and eat, recommend Kelly's!

On my "to do" list was an update for Kelly's on SPI for which I needed to tick off the box and…read moresaying "done." I gave it 2 stars several years ago because the service wasn't the greatest - far from it - and it was fairly quiet that night. Isn't it often that way? I went back to Kelly's Irish Pub because I believe it was more about the server and bartender that evening than it was about their regular modus operandi. I ordered the shepherd's pie and it was actually fairly decent. The service was definitely much better on this last go round. When on SPI, I usually don't return to places more than once during a stay unless I find it exceptional, it's a coffeehouse, or it's Whataburger with its great hours. However, one day I had planned to get lunch at another small eatery and it was easy to see that they were full and I'd have to wait a while. Having seen the daily specials at Kelly's, I went back for one of them. I got the fish and chips lunch platter and it was very good, not to mention a respectable value. The interior delivers with its thematic busy collection of Irish paraphernalia and its feeling of being like an old shoe. The customers seemed to be in a good mood. That could also in part be attributable to the service I encountered. Kelly's Irish Pub on SPI handily moves from 2 to 4 stars for providing a good mix of food, service, value, and atmosphere on two visits within a week. I really like their slate of lunch specials and, befitting a casual neighborhood sort of place, their friendliness is appreciated.

The lemon vinaigrette I had on my salad was spicy and delicious! Beer bread came with it and I could eat it on repeat for days! It was sooooo good! Their wheat beer was tangy and delicious; just what you need after a long day at the beach. Our server was Steven and he was attentive and VERY kind to our sweet pup; bringing water to her before we even asked. I'd walk back to PIBC for more of that beer bread

Wanted to really like this place, but it didn't go well unfortunately…read more Menu has a lot to offer and some of their prices are a little steep. Browsed the menu & ended up just getting their "tossed salad". I asked what was on it which was; sliced tomato, shredded carrot, red onion & cucumber. Opted out of the cucumber & requested two blue cheese dressings. My husband ordered their cheeseburger dressed with pepper jack cheese. My salad arrived fairly quickly & it was on a flat plate with a weak portion for $7.75. The two dressings were in taco cups over flowing with a hefty amount of fresh blue cheese crumbles packed on top. Super disappointed with not only the presentation, the cost & never being asked if I wanted my salad prior or when my husband received his meal. I ended up pushing it to the side & was waiting for our waitress to return to not only ask if my husband would like another beer, but to also provide the option of not eating that ridiculous amount of rabbit food-getting a refund OR to bring out more lettuce & ask to please just bring out standard blue cheese dressing without the added amount of crumbled cheese. We don't see our server for sometime, so I went to the hostess asking if she were also the manager which she stated she wasn't & that they were at the bar.That's when our server came up behind me & asked if there was a problem. I explained the situation to her, then she tells me that this dressing is always served this way and that, that is what blue cheese dressing is! She seemed confused about the crumbles & was almost trying to mock me. I've worked in the food industry & know how these product come into the restaurants. Blue cheese dressing does have blue cheese "chucks" within the original recipe. If you are doing things differently then that, it should stand out more on their menu as "homemade" and again expressed by the server, but she made it as if I were just suppose to know their process. It's salad dressing, it shouldn't be this difficult! LOL After this fiasco, they brought more salad and a watered down milky dressing that had zero flavor and zero cheese along with sliced cucumber?! The consistency was like milk. It was running, bland, NO blended cheese in the base-it definitely wasn't blue cheese dressing! WT?! This ALL transpired while my husband was still waiting on his burger & fries . About another 15 minutes goes by, I finally had to just start in on the bland salad. My husband's beer still sat empty & was never told when his burger would be served the few times are server swung by regarding my order issues. 20 minutes later, she comes by again & he was asked if it was cheddar cheese & he said, "no it was pepper jack". A total of 30 minutes he waited for a very rare burger, cold fries & FINALLY another beer! Terrible service and food wasn't very good either.

Drank Diet Coke after that. my sister ordered a tap beer and we were told that they weren't working so she had to get bottled beer. Husband ordered wings, they were out of them.

We liked the music they played was good and the guy that waited on us was nice even though we had to go looking for our bill. Might be fun place to drink at if can get by smell but definitely wouldn't recommend eating.
