A good location to sit outdoors on…read morea nice day (especially on game day as everyone else is inside!) or stand indoors on a game day, unless you get there early enough to get a seat. The staff do speak English and are quite friendly and efficient. In Italian style, they will give you a nice long time to decide what you would like to eat and/or drink. If you sit outside, plan to pay for your order when it is delivered. On a cool winter's day, it's a good place to warm up inside with a beverage, snack or meal, while checking out the sports memorabilia. They have a lot of sports covered here. Beer on tap is offered by the pint or liter, or order a bottled beer from their 'around the world' selection. There is a full bar offering typical Italian cocktails ('Sprits', 'Negroni', etc. See their menu, located on the clip boards), Irish Coffee, wine, Gin tonics, whiskey, etc. Located right on the corner, at the beginning of the Naviglio Grande, this location gives the outside diner/drinker a great 'people watching' locale and the indoor customer a quick, easy refuge from the heat or cold while taking a break from the crowds or to take in a soccer (football/calcio) game.

The management is extremely rude and the service terrible. I was denied service (a beer) for no…read moreapparent reason, after having already had one. When I asked the management why they wouldn't serve me they just become indignant and angry, the manager even insulting me, and still offering no explanation. Unfortunately this isn't an isolated incident as I've had many friends who have had similar experiences. One of my friends (a girl) was yelled at by the manager for taking a beer outside, even though there was absolutely nothing wrong with taking it outside as this is common practice and there were already people drinking outside. He contented that she had no table even though she was seated with us...a group of 6 people. Moreover, he offered no apologies after yelling at her and taking back her beer, forcing her to buy another beer because he had spilled most of the original one while he was berating her. Needless to say we left the bar shortly after. I however made the mistake of going back to meet a friend recently - hence this review. Probably better to avoid for any tourists as there's really nothing going on there. In any event, it's usually frequented by Milanese high schoolers in the evenings and not the best place to watch a football match or anything of the sort, despite its name.

Visiting from the U.S., the guy at the hostel said that this was his favorite bar. So we decided to…read morecheck it out. We went a little early, so there wasn't a crowd yet. Atmosphere: My boyfriend who had been to Ireland said that this place felt like the real deal. There are football team decorations on the wall. The bar is dark, but in the warm and friendly way. To me, it felt a lot like Irish pubs I've seen in the US. Drinks: the drink prices were pretty good and everything tasted great. We enjoyed a few rounds then went on our way Staff: the staff was nice and we could tell we got there right before the rush. Boyfriend loved the place, but it was a little above average for me.

A small bar to the left of the entrance has an Irish pub feel. The rest of the business is Blues/Jazz inspired. They have lots of outdoor seating. There were a number of occuoied tables inside enjoying an afternoon cocktail. Not much food happening at this time of day. Wait to be seated. Staff speak English. Although we were inside, an employee came over to collect payment mid-way through our drink. Very much a "here's your hat, what's your hurry" moment. One and done I guess. The restrooms are a pass for me. I bring clorox wipes when I travel so was prepared but there is no seat on the toilet. Most ladies hover anyway but you have been warned. Also, signs specify to *not put your TP into the toilet. A bin is provided, but the foot pedal is broken. You can imagine how that went. Located in a pedestrian area you may find parking on a nearby street, but I recommend public transport if heading to the Naviglio Grande area.

The tagliere was abundant and very good, with great salumi and cheeses from Italy. Definitely a great deal and very good service as well.

Hopefully we'll be back in Milano later this year and we will visit this this place again.

Once you walk inside, you immediately feel as if you're in an Irish pub in Ireland. Really cool vibe inside. The bartender was friendly, the patrons were inviting & outgoing, and the drinks were amazing--I got delicious White Russians. I got hungry at some point in the night. They even have a kitchen that makes bar food. I got a cheeseburger!! Although it wasn't gourmet, it was exactly what I was looking for from a bar and was great to nibble on while I was drinking. In regards to the vibe, atmosphere, and experience, Crazy Patrick's is a five star bar for me!

The menu of crepes here is extensive- from savory sandwich-like crepes to a plethora of sweet crepes, this Creperia will satisfy any crepe lover! They must have a hundred crepes on the menu. The selection of sweet crepes ranges from a lot of different fruit varieties like kiwi or berries, to combinations with all kinds of creams, custards, and chocolate fillings. I am also impressed with the drink menu. There are a couple pages of cocktails, plus a beer and wine selection. The cocktails are WORTH IT. I got an Irish whiskey and it was so gorgeous! The bar is also very cool; they've got a lot of character with the way they've decorated this place. I highly recommend this creperia for a drink and a snack. Close to Quadrilatero d'Oro too!
