    Patio waiting for uber
    Lindsey J.

    Customer service was fabulous!! Normal Irish pub with live music for a Saturday night!! Had the Rueben wontons and they were *chef kiss. Also did a couple Irish car bombs and the server happily took video. Cool patio and building (seems historic)

    You cannot go wrong with O'Shea's - a little something, for everyone! Whether you're looking for a proper meal or just something to snack on, the food is great! They alsos have an extensive drink menu. It's a large location so even if it's busy, chances are you'll still find somewhere to nestle into for your stay. Mostly "covered" in hard wood & brick it really has a cozy pup feel. From the greeter who met us at at the door, the bartenders, servers... everyone is great! Very personable. There was live music in the basement where they were serving up seasonal holiday drinks. They were all fabulous.

    Here's yet another place we went while we were on a walking tour in the city! This was our first stop and it was a tasty one. The staff handled our group quickly and efficiently - and they were friendly! The soft pretzel was huge! The beer cheese (made with Guinness) was really good! We were also served a beer with it. I'd definitely go back and try some other menu items!

    We had great drinks and dinner before a concert at the YUM. Although ordering occurs at the bar, we were checked on several times. The atmosphere was energized and cozy. Service was fast and the food was hot. Festive music was playing. It was a wonderful experience as usual!

    I did not try the food. Bourbon whiskey neat would be hard to mess up. They had my two favorites, and served it up quick. But I give this place 5 stars because I really like the vibe. The decor is a bit eclectic, but very fun, and the Staff was super friendly. I was greeted on entry, served promptly by one guy, but then checked on by every member of the staff as they moved through my area. I was a one-time stranger in town one night, ducked in during a torrential rain storm, sitting in a booth by myself... and they made me feel at home. A guy who had to be the manager or owner even included me in a conversation asking for my opinion as he was giving advice to a patron about things to do in town that did not involve his bar. I was a one-timer, but not anymore. I will definitely visit again the next time I am in town.

    Went here on a Saturday for lunch after a morning of bourbon tastings while on a bachelor party. Staff took great care of us as most of us sat around the bar. Guinness pints were excellent and the fish and chips were some of the better ones I've had-crunchy batter, good fries, strong tartar. Really liked the ambiance as well. Would come back on another trip to Louisville.

    Love this place. Great outdoor seating and big enough to bring lots of people! The food is actually great too which is hard to find with good bars

    I was very pleased with our meal here at the O'Shea restaurant. Came in here on it Friday evening here in Louisville. The atmosphere was very fun energetic had a good bar field. And I got my classic Ruben that always get everywhere I go they have it on the menu And tater tots. They were fantastic was phenomenal and I was so glad to get it from a traditional Irish place. I will definitely be back.

    Delicious Fish & Chips washed down with a nicely poured pint of Yuengling. Service proved friendly attentive, and knowledgeable. The seating is clean and plentiful. There is a downstairs and main floor. The bar is well stocked. I enjoy eating here before attending a concert at the YUM Center.

    Stopped in here for a drink and a quick bite. Service model is order at the bar (which I very much like!) and LOTS of seating. Great menu selection. From the bar we had miller lite, Harp Irish lager, and Jack Daniel's 12 year; which was very good. Food selection was the Patrick burger and fries (onions on the burger were crispy and delicious!), and the Duffy burger. Maybe it's the Jack Daniel's 12 year talking, but the best burger I've ever had.

    This place was so great, we returned for a second time in the 48hrs we were in Louisville. The first time we went for drinks (our buddy said it was the best Irish coffee he had had in a long time), later in the evening we returned for the beer cheese that we heard some locals talking about, which did not disappoint. Made conversation with one of the staff members for awhile and got along famously. Unique items all throughout the place, bathrooms in a historic tunnel, a rooftop, and great live music. Highly recommend!

    Gosh, what a great spot in Louisville! I wasn't expecting much from the Irish Pub but their Shrimp and Lobster Grits were to die for! I had to go twice on my trip because the food was seriously so amazing. Service was better during the evening than the day, but still overall easy going. Lots of seating, I loved all the quotes spread out around the restaurant.

I had The Holy Ghost cocktail and it was a pomegranate hibiscus sour, it had just the right amount of sour! I do not like bitter drinks and this one was good and easy to drink. My husband had a couple of dark beers, I do not remember which ones but he liked them. They had a nice outdoor area but it was a bit too cool for that but it may be worth a return in the Spring to check it out. Bathroom was also really cool as the decor and theme spilled over into it. We will be back.

It's creative with a sense of joy, irreverent, one of a kind. And I'm happy to see it last in its spot next to Slugger Field. I got to visit recently when a bunch of friends were in town. We ended up visiting during trivia night, which added a fun twist to the experience. Our team, The Electric Sheep, got second place! And along with the fun vibes, we had great food and beer. I got The Smokehouse OG, which is its pulled pork sandwich served on a Cuban roll. If you like pulled pork, you'll like this sandwich, though typical to their fashion, AtG puts a twist on it with its Brown Note BBQ Sauce. We had to get the pork belly on a stick -- a menu fave. And for my beer, I tried the El Nopal Mexican lager (cracked up at the name) and Cold Ass Beer red ale. AtG is a Louisville original that's not to be overlooked.

There are also picnic tables out front. You get a faint whiff of the grill/smoker upon entering. Kylie was our bartender and she was fabulous - knowledgeable, friendly, and answered all of our questions with patience. Wife ordered a mango margarita and doesn't like a lot of tequila, so Kylie went half and gave her a shot on the side in case she wanted to add more. It was wonderful. I had a couple of beers. We started with the fried mushrooms, which aren't what you would expect. It's two large portobellos cut into chunks, battered, fried, and served with sun-dried tomato mayo. They were great. I then ordered a duck taco, brisket taco, and a side of Grippo Fries with smoked mayo. I'd never tried duck but that taco was smack-a-lackin'. The brisket taco was also good, and the fries were fantastic - sweet and spicy, fresh cut, and crispy. Wife ordered a pork belly slider and truffle fries. She enjoyed the slider but didn't care for the fries - just not her thing. The portions here are large. A side of fries will feed three people. We took a hefty portion of them home, as well as some of the mushrooms. We could've sat there at the bar and spent 3 hours socializing and enjoying a smattering of cocktails - love the setting. Look forward to going back and trying one of the burgers at some point.

    Well I'd classify this place as a dive bar in the sense of the word. It's definitely not 4 star…read morenoted and maybe not the best exclusive signage and overall 4 star appeal; but it a diamond in the rough, persa. This place is quaint, nice location (on a corner ) decent seating, not a big outdoor dining area, the bar is long and has the memories of the old day saloon. Now the food; terribly good! Menu isn't extensive but good items and variety that will satisfy anyone's appetite. It was Father's Day but as soon as it opened they were quickly filled with patrons and people kept coming; even waiting to get in. The fries in duck fat were awesome. Since so many baskets of fries like this for a long time. The smoked wings are great, meaty and savory. I had the pork belly tacos; my only disappointment was you only get 2 per order. The fine combination of ingredients were splendid and the pork belly so tender. My wife had the bbq pork sandwich on pretzel bun. Very good tasting and this was with no bbq sauce on it. If you're in the area, do yourself a a favor and stop in. I can't wait to go back ( as we live in southern Indiana) so might be a bit but definitely want to try a few other items.
