Now as you can see in the photo, the crab landed in front of me with a big ole cup of mayonnaise..... hmmm ..... Now normally I don't dream of steamy crab legs covered in hellmans, but thanks to a few pints I was feeling brave. You will just have to try it yourself if you are feeling dubious, but mix in some fresh lemon juice with that white goop and dip away - that is a tasty mess! Who would have thought crab and mayo? Go figure. Oh and the beer in the pics is not some blonde mess (i don't like the loaf of bread in a glass) it is Smithwicks ale - pronounced smith-icks - which seems to taste pretty dang good with everything.

Rosie's is definitely the place to go for live music on the weekends! The bar is a traditional Irish bar in the front, and a music venue in the back room. There's also a cool beer garden out the back door. It's definitely cozy, but that adds to its charm. The staff is super friendly. I've seen the local cover band Loose Change a couple times, and they are excellent. If you are in the area, and want a taste of true Irish craic, visit this place on a Friday or Saturday night when there's live music on! You won't regret it.
