We decided to stop by for the live music. Our server was friendly and attentive. They have a good menu and we found the food decent. Some of it seemed a little over salted for us. They have a full bar, but I thought their beer selection would have been a little more extensive. They did have a few local beers on tap though. We enjoyed the music while still being able to carry on a conversation if we wanted. I'd stop by again.

I met friends here recently (01-2024). After the bartender was finished with one of her (25 minute,…read morepossibly longer) smoke break(s), we were able to make order food and drinks at the counter. I asked the regulars if we had offended her & they shrugged and mentioned how she was overwhelmed with the 11-ish total in the bar. Each drink order was countered with a sigh & an eye roll. She seemed to treat the regulars the same as us rookies, so there's something to be said about that. The good part is that the wings, mini corn dogs, and mozzarella sticks were good, when we finally got them. Drinks were okay. The best bartender can make any room wonderful, while a terrible bartender can turn a great place upside down. Thanks for the glaring hate with each of our orders. The green round table edge had duct tape residue that stuck to my shirt, which is a weird stain to bring home.

The space is large so you can come in with large parties, or just spread out. Huge outdoor patio, too. I really like access to the Jukebox and pool table, darts, etc. And they have a ton of TV's for games. I definitely recommend this restaurant and bar!

Our server was very busy, handling both the bar and restaurant areas. We all started with appetizers, which we shared. Fried green beans were good, kind of spendy. The onion rings were great and the tarter they came with was nice. The mozzarella sticks were good, the marinara was cold and chunky. For meals, two of us went with their Irish Stew, salad, and absolutely delicious cornbread. Our other friend tried their Burnt End sandwich. She said it was really good. What I really wanted was BBQ turkey, which is on their online menu but not on the menu in the restaurant. It was a good experience and we'll definitely give them another try in the future.

The Mad Cow Reviewer…read more Well, color me udderly impressed! I wandered into McKracken's Irish Pub in Spokane Valley after a long day chewing cud and was greeted with the warmest "moo" of hospitality I've felt in ages. The owner clearly knows how to make everyone--two-legged or four-hooved--feel right at home. Let's start with the Guinness--cold, creamy, and poured with care. It's enough to make a bull tear up with joy (and that's saying something). The Irish stew? Hearty, rich, and packed with flavor. The cornbread is the real surprise--soft, slightly sweet, and perfect for soaking up the last bits of stew. Whoever's in that kitchen deserves a medal--or at least a salt lick of appreciation. They've got WiFi, so you can update your herd on your dining adventures, and the regulars add to that cozy, small-town pub vibe. Karaoke on Fridays is a real treat too--nothing like hearing a few pints in patrons belt out "Don't Stop Believin'" while I hum along in low, soulful moos. All in all, McKracken's is the kind of place that makes you want to settle in, loosen your bell, and stay awhile. Great food, cold beer, friendly faces--what more could a mad cow ask for? -- The Mad Cow Reviewer

She got her man mad and he stood up several times to tell me he was going to knock me out. I spent $80 there, bought several people drinks then the bartender kicked ME out 5 minutes to closing because other people were being aggressive towards me even after I told her that people are threatening me over an hour before and she did flup all then blamed me for the whole thing. She said she's been working there for 1 year but I've never seen her once. I'm not going back I went there the other night with my gf. I walked up to the bar to order a pbr. There was one guy in front of me who was served a pint of beer. After he walked off with his beer, both the bartenders there told me it would be just a minute and walked off into the side by the cooler. They did nothing and talked for a few minutes then walked around aimlessly for a few more while I just stood there waiting to order right after another person was served. I got tired of waiting so I left. You couldn't pay me to go back to that shithole. Been going there off and on for over 20 years now. It has slowly and consistently declined ever since my first few visits. No more live music, no more karaoke, no more private patio, nothing. The bartenders are the worst I've ever seen. I'm not going to pay someone or tip them for horrible service. I'd rather see that place go out of business and replaced with a parking lot. Owner hates weed, everyone in there is sad af, no music is ever playing. It's just depressing.
