    The patio is open and ready for business come on down grab a cold one and some delicious food
    Patrick Q.

    Awesome food taco Tuesdays is amazing $1.55 for a damn Taco you can beat it beer specials you have never seen a bar and I guarantee you you have never seen a little upscale die bar like mcclanigan's Irish pub it has 5000 choices of vodkas rums whiskeys etc come in check it out Monday through Friday chef Kelly is in the back doing her business and make it every dish delicious have fun

    Classic for a reason

    The one reason and best reason to come here, especially early on a Friday? Come and watch and listen to the regulars. This is a classic dive bar that I've been to a few times over the years and it never pretends to be anything different than what it is. They have about ten beers on tap, but definitely nothing that is going to appeal to a beer snob. Bells Two Hearted and Petoskey Horny Monk are really your two choices. The classic fridge is filled with a few more choices but the classics dominate the selections. They have a small kitchen with a classic bar menu. It's Friday during lent so Fish and Chips is on special, and the prices are way better than you will find anywhere else. The service is always great. I've always say at the bar so I can only speak to that but I honestly can't imagine any of it being bad. If you're looking for an authentic experience in a town full of pretentious people this is one of the few ones.

    Good bar, huge TV.

    It's you typical hole in the wall. And I mean hole. It's got cheap drinks, keno, loud music, loud crowd, crappy bar stools, and a crappy old bar top. The food comes from a tiny run down kitchen where everything is deep fried, maybe even the burgers. The popcorn is so salty it should be against the law, but you'll eat it anyways because it's addictive. The bartenders asks if you want another at appropriate times, so she does her job well enough. Don't use the bathroom unless you absolutely have to, and then, try to hold it a little longer. It's cheap, tall, cold, strong drinks. I'm in.

    Booze and liquid marijuana shots...thanks Aleana for the recommendation:)

    So we went for the karaoke, booze and shots. It's your typical dive, but the staff there is friendly, fun and efficient. We were offered menus but had eaten already. If you're looking for cheap booze, eats and karaoke stop by!

    Quite a valuable service!

    Crabby staff. Not going back in this lifetime. Too many people leaving drunk. Assume they did not arrive that way.

    Wonderful fish and chips Fabulous hamburgers…read more Great service Fair prices What's not to love

    Shamrock Pub is a family friendly establishment, mainly known for its chargrilled burgers. So much…read moreso, the burgers are often hailed as the best in Macomb County. Its ambiance is more updated than the average pub, and outdoor seating is available during the warmer months. The menu here is concise. However, a wide array of options isn't necessary, as the majority of Shamrock's clientele come here for the burgers. For instance, I recently dined in, and noticed just one sandwich come out of kitchen that wasn't a burger. I also, unfortunately, noticed that all the buns get microwaved prior to serving. This wouldn't have bothered me, but the buns were still in the plastic bag they came in. As for the burger, it's definitely good, but frankly, it's overrated. It's enjoyable, but there's plenty of bars out there serving comparable burgers. The portion size of the French fries is generous. Similar to the burger though, the fries are worth getting, but are nothing to write home about. If you prefer a simple and affordable burger, you'll absolutely love Shamrock. On the flip side, the burger is not in the same league as Bronx Bar, Grey Ghost, Redcoat Tavern, etc. As a whole, what makes Shamrock such a desirable spot is how fairly priced the menu is.

One Green Olive and One sweet pickle on it, NO SLICED EGG One Cherry Tomato and a plate full of warm lettuce. Absolutely disgusting and when she told our server Jaci H., the server went to the bar and got a small sauce bowl with four green olives in it, set it on the table and left. Ambiance was great as usual we love the place. My chicken strips came out without my fries and were, sorry I eat things together, so it was disappointing to be told your fries are on their way and by the time they arrived my chicken strips were getting cold, and the fries were to hot to eat. Place was more than half empty so I couldn't blame it on "We got slammed" visit on April 13th was great but two of our guests had to send their food back, I believe it was the mac and cheese. Sorry but when I pay close to $14.00 for a glass of well wine, I expect the food to be "top shelf" and the service to be 2nd to none simply because of the KRUSE name.
