I really enjoyed this pub. It wasn't exactly Irish when I came in and they were blaring country music... but it is Texas lol. They didn't have any servers when we went in... which is kind of weird but I guess is their way of saving money at the cost of customer service. The fried jalapeños were really good though. I also got a quesadilla... which was fantastic by the way. Big thing that makes me not want to come back was they were doing some stuff in the ceiling tiles right next to us as we were eating and all the dust came flying out. Luckily we were done eating but the manager didn't say anything to anyone about it before they started doing it. He did ask people to move after a few minutes but come on.... read more

Probably my favorite places to come during a happy hour! Brittany is always amazing, if it's busy or not, she's super attentive and knowledgeable about the products she's selling. Great beer selection and overall place to make you feel right at home. read more

Hands down the best salsa I've ever had considering I come from a Mexican family! Daniel (the chef) went the extra mile to make sure I had the best appetizer to accompany some drinks with my family! Definitely coming back! Friendly chill spot! UFC fights! Conor McGregor all day! read more

This place is awesome! Ingrid (Irish-Mexican) is the absolute life of the party here. My only wish is that I could spend more time at this fine establishment. I would recommend anyone that is in the San Antonio area to check out this legit Irish bar. I can't wait to come back here! read more

Best neighborhood Irish bar in town! Newly opened kitchen has some pretty decent options, better than the usual standard bar food choices. read more

Best spot for an affordable after work Happy Hour...2 dolla domestics on FRIYAY and you get to hang with Brittney. Can you beat it? Probably not. read more

We were only in there for about 5 min.. Smelled like bleach and then we saw two giant cockroaches walk across the dartboard... so we left. Oops! read more

I love coming for happy hour here. Brittany is the most awesome bartender. She's a reason I come to the bar. Pleasant service and oh so easy on the eyes. read more

It's looking better, Brittany was a panty dropper. Definitely be back. Not today tho because I need to change my panties. Is Ross open today? read more

Great new dart boards, pretty bartender (Brittney) great service and clean. Located right off the highway so it's easily accessible. Will definitely be back. read more

Great neighborhood bar with awesome service. They have drink specials everyday of the week

Great after work happy hour, with good pool tables, and drink specials. Brittany will take great care of you. Definitely recommend.

Great neighborhood bar with great specials! This is my go to bar after a long day at work. Staff is friendly beer is cold and the prices are great! They have pool, darts, basketball, a jukebox and a patio! read more

Well let me tell you this place is pretty close to amazing but it's not quite heaven. The bartender Brittany seems to be very flirty in a great way and also a terrible way I'm fairly positive that she's flirting with everybody else here and not just me at first I thought I had a chance however now I'm still very lonely and drunk. I'm hoping that she still will call me cuz she said she would. The music is awesome because I'm in charge of the Jukebox. The ATM does not steal your money it actually gives you money if you ask it nicely and there are several TVs playing different sporting events of the sports ball. Go Spurs go. I'll be back read more

Brit. Dunk made my first time, an amazing time! Amazing attitude, buoy, great service, and smile! Drinks were 5 Star great! Thank your Brit. For An amazing experience. read more

So if you're a seasoned drinker such as myself, you probably refer to Cowboys-Far West and 502 Bar-Wiseguys. Let's bring our attention to Blanco Tavern..... I mean McFinnigan's Pub. That's right folks there's a new kid in town. Well I don't know how long they've been open but the bar still smells fresh & the bathrooms hasn't succumbed to phone numbers & who loves who. They did I very nice remodel, it's opened up plenty of bar seating. OH and even better there's light in the bar. Fooseball, pool, & air hockey for your enjoyment. I went on a sunday during happy hour, a nice arrangement of tvs. If it's slow then the bartender will plug in their ipod and you can jam out to some tunes without dropping your lifesavings in that god-forsaken internet jukebox. As far drink prices, they were pretty reasonable $7 dom. pitchers and other specials. I'm not sure if just Sunday or daily specials. The bartender was great, she had some friends chillin and drinking and yet still took care my entourage. Which is a plus, nothing can be more irritating when you get passed up on service cuz they have regulars. So thumbs up on the staff. Outside patio for you nicotine addicts, nothing special just a quaint pation with some tables & chairs. I'm usually leery about new bars that open up in past notable establishment. McFinnigan's you have earned two thumbs up in my book. So if you looking for a new bar to check out then stop on by and have a scotch or an Irish car bomb. Oh and no food, but I saw a couple of bar patrons get pizza delivered from a local joint. So I'm guessing they might have a partnership with the pizza place and you can order at the bar. read more

My husband and I came here for the first time around 5pm on a Tuesday randomly because we were in the area. We read the great reviews and decided to give it a shot. Tale as old as time..do not judge a book by it's cover. The outside is a little skeevy but on the inside...it's the bar you've been looking for your entire life. Brick and appropriately dark green interior with wooden tables and chairs. The bar is epically functional because it is a unique and wonderful masterpiece. We had bartender, Taylor. She was a sweetheart who qualified as the perfect bartender. It's an amazing hole in the wall bar that makes us wish we lived closer so we could make it "our bar". The music was great. Just do it! Go to this bar. If you don't like it that probably just means you have really bad taste in bars. read more

I love this bar!! Some of the best staff in town! Lots of TVs, pool, darts and a great patio. Whether you are looking for a chill happy hour spot or a fun new nighttime hangout, Mcfinnigans is the place. Its always fun and laid back and they have great specials. There are 2 great restaurants next door (a Thai place and a pizza place) for your happy hour snacks or dinner. If you're lucky you may even stop by when the owner is cooking up something delicious!! Good bar with an awesome staff..how can you go wrong?!? read more

I just started hanging out here and I definitely like the new look from the old Blanco Tavern. It just seems so new and bright and open now as Christa said earlier. I like that some of the old Roxy crowd comes out here now, so I don't have to drive as far to see friends. The service is relatively quick, even on busier nights, and remains friendly. Definitely will be back out there. read more

First off, this bar is as Irish as the Boston Celtics roster. And it's not a "pub," it's a sports bar with one large cavernous-feeling room that has always been 90% empty every time I've been there. Probably not a bad spot to catch a game, and it's wasn't a bad bar, per se, I just never felt really relaxed or at ease there unless I'm carting around a group looking to watch a game and play some darts. Not the best spot for a casual night with a friend or a date though. Also, I don't smoke but a few of my friends do, and their outside patio is caged in and feels like a cramped prison yard. Weird. read more

This place must have had all their friends leave a 5 star review. It smells like the inside of a urinal. Ordered a beer and it tasted like butter. I switched it and got another which also tasted like butter. A quick google and I found out it's from a dirty tap and yeast in the lines. Disgusting. read more

Great bar! Good selection of import beers on tap. Good liquors. A DJ occasionally plays. Good jukebox as well! A tamale guy comes around occasionally. I like the staff and the folks who come here. Plenty of parking. read more

I found it to be a bar more than an Irish Pub. A plus is they hay daily drink specials. I had the fish and chips, frozen fish all the some shape not my idea of an Irish pub style fish, the homemade fry's were ok. It's more of a local bar with lots of TV's and loud music than an Irish Pub. I would come back for a couple of cold ones but not so much for the food. Just my opinion! Hope it helps read more

When I first stepped into McFinnigans, I knew this was a place I would enjoy. The bartenders know their stuff. Thursday HH is great, even when I extend my stay. Weekends are excellent. The drink specials are on par or better than other area bars and there are a wide selection of liquors to choose from. They offer free UFC events, food during major sporting events, and there are plenty of televisions to watch your favorite event. Stop by. You won't be disappointed. read more

McFinnigans is a pretty cool place. Sometimes they show UFC fights on PPV, they have great beers on tap, and the bartenders or pretty nice. You can order food from next store at a place called ray's pizzeria (formally goomba's). McFinnigans could be better but its not that bad. read more

Good beer selection. Staff nice. DJ was awful for venue. Several tables near us complained. Irish bar that hires DJ that will only play Rap and R&B. Not impressed. read more

A good place that's out of the way to enjoy a pint or a cocktail I had an Austin eastsider with a shot of fire ball very delicious.... cocktails look good to that the bartender was making read more

Music is way too loud in patio and the security/door guy is such a weirdo. The beer draft is perfectly cold though.

Terrible pour! I felt like I got robbed. It's supposed to be a home bar, not a franchise... I would not recommend drinking here. Girls are pretty though... But is it worth the spend? I think not! read more

Jesse is the best bartender my girlfriend and I have ever had. Which is saying a lot because we have seen a lot. She is always patient when we don't know exactly what we want and is always helpful with suggestions. I also have to give mention to Taylor and Bethany because they are awesome as well. Also, a shout out to the kitchen that just opened because the food is always delicious. I recommend the Scott van melt. Add an egg if you're adventurous. read more

Great bar, atmosphere, and music. First time here. I'll be back. Thanks Sandra for introducing me to this place. I won't take it away from you. read more

Great neighborhood bar, great prices, plenty of TVs for catching a game! Kelsey is very sweet and very attentive! Will come back!

We wanted to check out this bar, as the Blanco Tavern was an old hang out. The remodel was excellent and the staff very friendly. Great place to visit! read more

I am in town on business and am staying at a nearby hotel. I found this place searching for a place to play Golden Tee 2015. Upon entering, the bartender, Taylor, immediately greeted me and then continued to treat me like I've been coming here for years. This is a great neighborhood bar and I will return. read more

I have been a patron here for a while. They provide greet service, stout drinks and beautiful bartenders. It's always a great time and they will know your name! read more

Good neighborhood bar,always open tables,the food is good,free Ufc events ,and really cold draft beer.
