After spending the afternoon at Snowbird resort, my daughter and I were both ready to warm up. Of course I used Yelp to find us Irish stew in Salt Lake City, Utah. Piper down pub was listed as some of the best in the area. Gil greeted us at the door and of course, had to scan our IDs due to Utah state laws. He was very friendly and happily watched my daughter's phone while it was charging; there are no charging stations around the seating area. The stew was delicious and just what we were wanting. Thank you Yelp reviewers for steering us in the right direction. read more

I went here with a group of friends on Sunday for brunch. The parking is street parking either on state street or in the neighborhood right by it. There is a parking lot right by it but it's for another business and they will tow, so be sure to read the signs where you park. The vibe here is giving dive bar for sure. They have pool and darts. They also had a stage so I figure they have music or mic night. They have a covered patio downstairs as well as an upstairs one that gets sun. They have a lot of umbrellas so you aren't sitting directly in the sun but can still enjoy the nice weather. It also has lots of mirrors which give it a cool vibe and make it a good spot for pics. As for the food and service, it was a little all over the place. Our server seemed pretty flustered the whole time. I ordered a Diet Coke and the upstairs machine wasn't working. The first one that was brought out was incredibly flat. The second one was from the machine downstairs, and it wasn't great but it was drinkable. My friends got coffee and said it was good. They have $2 mimosas. They are definitely a smaller size but good for the price!! The food took a long time to come out and there were a few things missing. We also had a couple mimosas we ordered that were initially forgotten but brought after the second or third ask. The food itself was just meh. It's dive bar food. The potatoes were amazing though!! Everything is pretty inexpensive. I'd recommend this as a fun option for a group of friends to hang. read more

We came on a Sunday morning and it was not busy at all! We had a decent time and the food for the most part was good. They've got $2 mimosas so can't really complain about that! I ordered their French toast and my husband ordered the corn beef hash. Both were good but they're not anything special. Although, They've actually got really good breakfast potatoes. I wouldn't say it's my favorite brunch spot, but I wouldn't be mad about going here read more

The most delicious vegan food in Salt Lake City isn't at a health store, a vegan restaurant, or a food truck. It's at an Irish pub. Piper Down Public House, located in the Ballpark Neighborhood, has been serving traditional Irish dishes since 2003 and boasts a dedicated vegan menu with items like bangers and mash, corned beef sandwiches, and fish and chips. The brunch menu especially shines with offerings like the Big Veggie Gilbert--a toasted brioche sandwich with vegan bacon, JustEgg, cheese, tomato, and chipotle aioli--and Huevos Rancheros. As good as the brunch was, the friendly servers confided that their favorites are on the dinner menu. Next time I'm in SLC, I'll be sure to find out. Piper Down has a traditional, airy pub feel with plenty of natural light. It's the perfect spot to grab a pint with friends, catch a game on one of the many TVs, and enjoy the best vegan food in town. read more

We just went for dinner, and everything is different. Not in a good way. I got fish and chips, and nothing was the same. The fish was chewy, and the breading tasted frozen. Jen got chicken fried steak, and it tased like Cisco threw it up out of the back of their truck. Piper is no longer the wonderful food stop that it used to be. Steer clear. read more

We went there to get the fish and chips special. Ive been looking forward to this all day . Only to be told that the kitchen was closed . At 5pm . This is no way to run a business. We left after being charged for our beers to go to another restaurant which was fantastic!! BTW clean your tables and at least say hello to your customers instead of making them.wait for crappy service !! If you want good food and good service go somewhere else besides here !! read more

Haven't been here in well over a year, so it was a lunch well deserved with friends!! I got a Guinness to start with and Jameson on the rocks for dessert! I had the regular grilled cheese sandwich with BBQ sauce for dipping along with a side salad! Everything was delicious!! Other items at the table were fish and chips and fish tacos. Service was great!! I love coming in the afternoon when it's a little more relaxed! Definitely need to come more often!! read more

The food is good, but the service is top notch! Lots of choices to eat and drink- most with an Irish flair. If you go for St Patrick's Day, it's one of the most popular places in Salt Lake City. They have live bands, singing, and bag pipes all day. Parking can be a challenge. You might want to park on the north or south side of the block! read more

Had my St Paddy's Day lunch today (or as I called it "Celtic Heritage Day"), so much going on. Live music all day and impromptu appearance from a small group of the Wasatch Drum and Pipe Corps. Such an awesome place to hang out For all the green! read more

We've been to this bar numerous times and it never disappoints! I recently had their chili verde burrito, Irish coffee, and biscuits & gravy! everything was absolutely delicious. The portions are huge, so you'll definitely leave full and happy. It's one of our go-to spots, and we'll definitely be coming back again, especially for St. Patrick's Day! read more

Stopped by for Sunday brunch and chose a table in the back room for our group of 5. We had a nice waitress who was attentive and patient with our group. My husband and I opted to share the Gilbert breakfast sandwich and the breakfast burrito: - The Gilbert was suppose to come on a brioche bun but mine didn't quite look or taste like one (someone else in our party also ordered the Gilbert and their bun was different). I'd say the sandwich would be great if there wasn't as much sauce smothered in it. Also, the hash brown Pattie's weren't crispy. - My husband enjoyed the breakfast burrito but there wasn't anything too special about it. We did like that it was served in a spinach tortilla. Overall, we weren't amazed by the food but Piper Down is a nice spot to eat at if you're in the area. read more

Really good food! There was only one waitress and so we had to wait for about 30 minutes to order. And she never came back to refill our drinks. She didn't want to split our check either! Food=great Service=not so great read more

Piper Down always slaps, the food is just great for the price and excellent for a pub. Service is always decent and friendly even if they are crazy busy, and it's a great environment to hang out or watch games (I really enjoyed watching the World Cup here!) Came by today for brunch, drinks were out fast, food came out pretty quickly. They always cook my eggs perfectly (over easy), toast with that extra butter, and the potatoes are always delicious. Chicken fried steak was over done, but smother it with gravy, and it's all good. Girlfriend got the Mess of Potatoes which she really enjoyed, a healthier version of a garbage hash if you will. We will be back very soon, especially for the FIFA World Cup! read more

Went for brunch on Sunday. You have to find parking on the street, so prepare for that. The parking lot was only for the Vietnamese restaurant next door. If you like savory the corned beef hash is the way to go. I do enjoy hot sauce, so added it to complement the dish. The corned beef was tender and lean. Great option for an Irish dish in my opinion. However, this savory gal was thoroughly impressed by the French toast. My partner got the French toast and it was AMAZING. In fact, I would go back just to get the French toast because it was just the right amount of sweetness. That means something to this "savory gal" who's been craving their French toast. This pub is so fun! Would love to come by one night when they have a live band. The decor makes it feel like you're in the Ireland. Would definitely go back when we're in town! Oh the server recommended a great beer too and they offer $2 mimosas for brunch. Great place! They have rooftop seating, but we decided to stay indoors due to the heat. read more

Their drinks are nice and strong (but they're also pretty expensive), their food is amazing (especially when I'm intoxicated), and their bar staff is so friendly. Honestly, I had a great time with my friends at this bar, but I'm really not a fan of live music when I drink. It just makes it so hard to have conversations. Honestly, this isn't a fault of the bar, my friends just picked a bad night for us to be there--I think it's great to support local artists and I think it's awesome that Piper Down invites them to perform for their guests, it's just not for me. I really had a great time though! (The 4-star rating, however, is unrelated to the live performance, it's partially because my drinks were so strong (I like them sweet and girly!) and partially because they were so expensive (but what bar isn't these days?).) read more

Piper Down is our favorite pub in SLC. We go there often, so I've reviewed it a few times already. Why am I reviewing it again, you ask? Because this is the first time I've been to the Saturday/Sunday brunch. Do. The. Brunch. It is absolutely amazing! Oh my gosh; if you've never done an Irish pub breakfast, you've been missing out. So much food; I left there stuffed. Great menu, great prices, great drinks. The place filled up fast, but the service remained consistently friendly and efficient, and the wait time for the food more than reasonable. Get there early, though. We arrived at 10:30 and found a good seat, but by 11:00 it was nearly standing-room only. read more

Our St. Pat's Traditional Bartender great. Bangers & Mash delicious. Band & Bag pipes amazing ! It's a true celebration.

Very nice staff. However the owner passes off the merchant fee when using card payment and you are unaware until you get your bill. 3% . Square is only 2.6% . The owner is robbing people without giving them a heads up. Food just ok. The place is reasonably priced... but costs and fees need to be more transparent. I left 20% tip because it's not the bartender's fault. I will never come back to this place. Once bitten twice shy read more

Vegan review! Absolutely love all the vegan brunch options they have. I got the vegan Irish breakfast and my husband got the Etico Burrito. Topped with mimosas of course which are only $2 each! The food was amazing - we went to Ireland 2 years ago and I was in search of somewhere to get a vegan Irish breakfast but found nothing, yet somehow discovered this place in SLC. Would definitely come back and try more menu items the next time I visit! read more

Went to piper down st Patty's Day for a good time, a beer and hangout time. I tipped "Stebby" $15.00 for 1 beer and 1 water. She grimaced when I asked for more water and she didn't bring it. I STILL TIPPED HER. Now, I am getting charges beyond that!!! I've called Piper Down, and no one has called me back. I've had to dispute through my bank. The world is on a budget, and Piper Down has charged my card 4 times Friday night and again Saturday when I wasn't even there! Beware of shady waitresses that use fake names. I can post her picture, but I won't. The 1 guiness I had was good. I wanted another, but because it was St Patty's and the police love revelers, I wasn't about to drink more than that. My friend takes pictures of his Piper down receipts because this has happened to him by Stebby as well. Gee Stebby, get it together and be honest; better luck will come back to you. read more

You'd never know you were in SLC when you walk in the doors of Piper Down. Maybe it's in Dublin or in NYC, but in any event the place is a cool Irish Pub. But even better than that is the most interesting bar in SLC. The guests were diverse, the bar warm and the music great. We were there in St Paddy's day weekend and the joint was jumping. The atmosphere was really fun and I'd return anytime I'm in town. read more

Anytime I can find a vegan pub, or pub with solid vegan options, I get super excited. Outside of England or Europe, this is a very uncommon encounter. So when I learned about Piper Down in SLC it was one of the first places I checked out. Piper Down is an Irish pub with an extremely excellent selection of vegan food. In fact, they have a whole separate menu (plus a vegan brunch menu on Saturdays/Sundays.) While I was very tempted to go there for dinner (and try out some bangers and mash), the brunch menu was too tempting too resist. The Irish breakfast was what really sealed the deal. Everything on that plate was incredible, from the just egg to the beyond brat to the bacon, etc. However, my partner and friend got the breakfast tacos and huevos rancheros and they too looked excellent as well. And to make things even better, their beer menu is pretty stellar as well. During my stay in SLC, I was trying to have as much Utah beer as possible. They had plenty of options, and the one I chose (a pale from TF brewing) was exactly my kind of beer (and a great rendition of the NE-style.) To top it all off, the space is generously-sized (including an outdoor space) and the staff/server were super friendly. As I write this, I ask myself, can I squeeze in another visit before I leave town? It's that good. read more

Came here for drinks after work based on a friend's recommendation. Pretty quiet, but it was early on a Thursday evening. When we showed up they had just started to play bingo, and it sounded like some bar credit was being used as prizes. Super fun! I didn't actually get to participate, but I'll have to come on a Thursday in the near future to do so. I got an old fashioned and their autumn mule, both tasted great and were decently priced. Our server was attentive and kind, but still respectful of us just sitting and chatting. Great atmosphere, everyone was pretty low key and seemed to be having a good time. Their kettle chips are also delicious as a little snacking food on the side. read more

A Must-Visit stop that delivers a fairly authentic Irish pub experience. Piper Down has a surprising beer selection on tap and stellar mimosas. Whether you're sipping a perfectly poured Guinness or enjoying a crisp mimosa at brunch, the drinks don't disappoint. The cozy atmosphere, good music, and outdoor patio make it a go-to for both laid-back hangs and lively nights out. If you're looking for great drinks and a welcoming vibe, Piper Down is the place to be. I'll definitely be back! read more

Okay, this bar is FUN. We went for Bingo Night, which is Thursdays at 8, though all of their marketing material says 9 and when I called to ask, they told me it was at 8:30. The MC was a hilarious woman who kept the whole bar lively and engaged for over an hour. Highly recommend attending this event. We had many winners at our table, including me! I won two shots of tequila. I am the worst at shots, and our server noticed I had not taken them yet and offered to bring me two shots of juice and grenadine to help me get it down, for FREE. He did not need to do this, but he did. His consideration was greatly appreciated. The service overall was great. Given that the bar was full, I expected service to be slow, but our server was so nice and very speedy. He got every order correct. The food! My partner loved his vegan brat sandwich, but my Vegan Cowboy burger was not impressive. The bread overpowered it, and the tomato had zero flavor and a gross tough texture. It's a dive bar, so, you know, don't expect the highest quality of ingredients. The onion rings were great though. They also make their own ranch and THAT is delicious. The margarita was pretty sad. Tasted like straight mix from the shelf at Smith's. But hey, I am a marg snob and have high standards for my margaritas! Overall, a great time, and I would go back. read more

Came for the 1.50 mimosas for Sunday brunch, my question is were they really even 1.50? Hmmmm. Anyway, met my girlfriends here and it was super packed on a Sunday. We sat towards the back by the bar and the music was lit! 90's rap/r&b - ayyyye. We all ordered - I got the corn beef hash - and I wasn't very impressed tbh. The food was sub par and drinks were alright - but for brunch- I just felt it wasn't all that great. It's nice they have a fire pit outside in the patio area since it's getting chilly.
