I came here on a Wednesday afternoon and had a lovely lunch! It was a very charming Irish pub with a welcoming atmosphere. Service was very attentive and we were seated right away. Throughout the meal, the server consistently checked on us to make sure we had what we needed and to refill our drinks. I really enjoyed my veggie melt- was super flavorful and loved the side sauces they provided with the fries. I also had a bite of the Reuben which was delicious as well. Fries were crispy and topped with Parmesan! It's definitely worth trying - both the veggie and meat options are delicious! read more

We went to an outdoor event in downtown Wayzata and stopped in for dinner. The decor is cozy and we were seated by the fireplace, which was nice. There were a couple of pasta dishes that sounded really good to me but I was hesitant to try them since this was an Irish pub. I went with the crispy chicken Cesar salad and it was tasty. Perfect amount of dressing and cheese and the chicken was tasty. One negative is the kids meals are quite expensive, I believe $13 for just basic kids food. I also didn't like the water (I know it sounds weird but it really tasted like tap water and didn't have ice). Other than, perfectly nice pub in a prime location. read more

McCormick's Pub & Restaurant - Crispy Chicken Caesar salad - Irish Near Me - Wayzata, Minnesota

Absolute ripoff. Paid $27+ for this seashell pasta. Not much more than an appetizer portion. And not even tasty

McCormack offers fast and friendly service with a beautiful view of the lake. Parking is a bit limited, but there are parking structures available. The food was tasty--my husband loved his burger, and my club sandwich really hit the spot. A great spot for a meal with a view! read more

We ambushed the crew at McCormicks with 6 kids under 5 and 7 adults. The manager was accommodating and extremely kid friendly. He dropped everything, pulled together two tables in the back and let us have at it. Kids orders were first and they served them very fast. The adults also all were served with a smile. Two more showed up and they rushed their order. The adult food is Wayzata quality upper scale bar food without any pomp. We will return!!! read more

Great food and service. I had Brie and veggies on ciabatta and husband had turkey club. Both were delicious. Highly recommend.

Went for dinner during hockey season. The quality of the food was fine but the prices and atmosphere were poor quality. You couldn't bold a conversation without shouting. Their happy hour drinks are more expensive than happy hour at the stadium. Food was expensive for what it was. read more

Amazing food, absolutely delicious. Wonderful spot for a romantic dinner in particular. Attentive and fun staff too!

The ambiance is wonderful, both inside and out. Outside there is a view of the lake under a covered patio, inside is warm and inviting, what you think of for an old Irish pub. We sat inside in the bar due to a bee problem outside, this was not our intent, but glad they told us about it vs just sitting us out there. Overall the service was slow, we waited 15 -20 minutes to get our first drink. I ordered a Rachel, that came with a "special sauce" that has a kick to it. Unfortunately my stomach can't handle anymore kicks- totally my fault that I didn't look closely at the menu, where it clearly calls out special sauce. Lesson learned, look at the menu before ordering. The bottom piece of bread was soggy, my guess it was from the sauerkraut. I order Rachels all the time and have not had this happen before, I wonder if other restaurants I drain the kraut better to prevent this. I requested aioli to dip my fries in, I think I got straight mayo. My husband got the Fish and Chips, he was not impressed, he cannot pinpoint why, but it just wasn't that good. Coleslaw was good, but the compote of tartar sauce was not full and not enough. Both our orders came with plenty of fries. To McCormicks defense, we did not bring up any of this to our server, it had been a long week and neither of us were in the mood to complain. read more

Cool place! Two bar options and lots to choose from. Service was great for a rather large group.

This is the cutest Irish pub right in downtown wayzata. The location is amazing, and it's a cozy atmosphere inside. The bartenders are friendly and fun. Have great salads and sandwiches as well! Definitely check it out! read more

On an annual basis, I make a trip to Minnesota to visit family and I usually stay in the Wayzata area. After long day of catching up, I like to stop by McCormick's for a Guinness before I head home. Although McCormick's is a fine Irish pub in its own right, what distinguishes it from any other, is a particular bartender named Heather. When I was there just this week, I sat next to a man from Ireland who commented on the Guinness. I said yes, Heather does a good pour. He replied by saying, it's not about the pour itself, it's about the care she puts into it. And that sums up this bartender Heather. She is professional, caring, thoughtful, makes a connection with all her clientele, no matter how busy it is, and has the gift of making one feel like they are the only customer in the pub. Thanks McCormicks and thanks Heather for your hospitality. I look forward to next year's visit. read more

Starting with the setting it is on lake st with a million dollar view of lake Minnetonka Yes "Princes" Purple rain lake Minnetonka it's a real Irish pub in Minnesota. They have a great menu all prepared with skill and pride we love coming here I had the fish and chips fresh perfectly prepared my wife had the mushroom Swiss burger and she loved the truffle fries we ended the meal with a key lime pie slice so sweet. The service is great with the servers knowing there fare well and the Guinness glows like spring water read more

Parking is at a premium in Wyzata, but it's free. I have yet to go to McCormicks and not find a spot within a block radius. But that's not why you go to McCormicks. You go for the Guinness. By far, the best I've found in the state and arguably, the best I've found anywhere. Not that I haven't had a single poured Guinness better in Boston, because I have. But it was one pour, vs every single time, getting something worthwhile. Honestly I can not speak highly enough about their Guinness. It's everything I could have ever hoped for so much more...every...single...time. Don't get me wrong, their food is good, their signature burger is wonderful, their truffle fries, worthy of brining home. But what gets me is obviously the Guinness. They are a super inviting bar/restaurant with wonderful views but you're going to be hard pressed to find an Irish pub with this much cleanliness, friendly and fast service, and warm feeling when you walk in the door. Honestly it's one of the few places I still visit where I feel like money was well spent. Love this place. read more

Service is great and the food is amazing. Their patio is nice in the summer because it's covered and looks out at the lake across the street. I love the benoffee pie - a must try! read more

We had a great dinner and really like the new menu. They've made tweaks to some menu items which are for the better, plus added some innovative new items. The result is an improved, more varied menu. The food was delicious, high quality, and well-prepared. The drink menu is great, good choices of wines, beers, cocktails, and mocktails. Service was very good and ambiance is always nice, both inside and on the patio. read more

Really nothing special about this place unfortunately. Super small portions and the service is just ok! Not worth the steep prices, so probably won't be back. read more

McCormick's Pub & Restaurant - Walleye Sandwich with chicken wild rice soup - Irish Near Me - Wayzata, Minnesota

Stopped to have a Coffee and Baileys and decided to try their "special", the jambalaya. Just an overall disappointment. Coffee was burnt and barely warm, could tell it had sat around for quite some time and the jambalaya was so incredibly bland and completely uninspired. It was white rice with a bland tomato sauce and a couple pieces of shrimp and sausage. No melding of flavors, just not good at all!! When we told our waitress it was bland we got a look and eye roll. &57.00 for 2 coffees and a shared jambalaya, no thank you! read more

Nice spot to grab a bite and a drink. We didnt eat but we had a couple of drinks. Nice Irish bar in a nice shopping town. Friendly staff and clean place. All the food I seen leave the kitchen looked great. read more

Fun Irish pub in downtown Wayzata. We had a large group meeting there on a Thursday night and it was very busy. However the staff was more than accommodating, making sure we were happy and seating was ok. Really appreciated the follow on call during the day to confirm the reservation as well, so many places don't do this anymore. There is a large selection of appetizers. Everyone was very good. Can definitely recommend fried clams and wings, also the flash fried shishito peppers were excellent. You can choose from a number of mains including sandwiches, burger, etc. But they also have larger plates like steak fries. The fish and chips were really good. Beers on tap include local brews like Summit, Castle Danger and they also have Guinness and Smithwick's too. Service here is really good. Even with our large party, which was a handful, everything was timely and beverages were refilled quickly. This Irish pub is a great experience all around. read more

I wanted to add to my review regarding Sunday at McCormick's in wayzata. Yes, our soup was removed from our bill after I asked her to. Yes, the burger was redone , it was better, but not close to what they can do. And, yes they always accommodate us. Lastly, Sunday's are a difficult day to eat out most everywhere, I just didn't think it would happen here. read more

I had terrific service from one of the bartenders/servers named Heather! She greeted me right away and delivered me a DELICIOUS lobster roll! I got it to-go and ate it by the water. It was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT....It was even better than the ones I have had in the past from Wayzata! I would HIGHLY recommend her and McCormick's as a whole! GREAT ESTABLISHMENT! Kudos read more

The menu for summer has been taken up a notch with new presentations of old favorites. The salmon was amazing and the black bean soup was delicious. The soups are always winners here.

Always a good time! Always delicious food! Always a good drink, be it a pint of Guinness or a cocktail! The food (cue chef's special) is amazing- seriously, never disappoints. You can't beat the location, especially when the patio area is open. However, if you're stuck indoors (gotta love Minnesota winters) you will really appreciate the decor- a real Irish pub theme. BTW McCormick's does such an amazing job celebrating St. Patrick's Day that you'll be longing for trip to the Emerald Isle! PS Please bring back Magners! read more

We were very lucky to get in on Mother's Day without a reservation for brunch. We sat outside because the inside was completely packed. This caused service to be slow simply because there was only one other group seated outside so they probably forgot about us. That being said I think it would have been better any other day that they weren't so busy. The food was great. The steak and eggs were done perfectly and their special of the crab Benedict was incredible! read more

Imagine my disappointment when I saw here on Yelp that they had a happy hour and it was also listed on their website... but when I got there, NO happy hour! I even said to the hostess when I came in that we were there for happy hour. She didn't say anything and seated us. I felt bad for our waitress when we up and left because of no happy hour (i did leave a tip). If you are going for happy hour, i guess I'd call first. read more

We went for happy hour on a last minute whim and we're glad we did! Great happy hour with both food and drink options. We had shishito peppers, wings, burrata, fries, and sliders. All were delicious. Nothing crazy or unique about the food, it was all typical dishes. But it was done well! The service was great! Our server was fun, friendly, helpful with picking out items, and even snuck a drink on happy hour in for us 30 minutes after it was done :) Some logistical thoughts: great for a group of friends meeting up for a casual outing. Keep in mind the bar is smallish and crowded. It's quite noisy at the happy hour side (bar side). I don't know what the restaurant side is like since we didn't eat there but it is further away so I could forsee it being quieter. Street parking in Wayzata so plan for looking for spots especially during the busier times. We'll be back!!! read more

Amazing service and great food. I had the Scallops and Smithwick. My mother had the fish and chips with truffle oil. Yum.

Menu has a little of many international dishes including the delish empanadas. Beer selection is huge.
