I visited with my friend Olga's book club for a book club discussion on Tuesday evening, 20 January…read more2026. My group were supposed to go to Habesha Ethiopian restaurant for dinner and book club but they were closed so we found ourselves at PJ's Irish Pub. AMBIANCE -- Dimmer light but not too dark inside. Typical, traditional bar look and feel. Lots of booth tables plus a center bar area with chairs around it. DRINKS -- I don't drink alcohol so I can't comment on their drink offerings but considering that this is an Irish Pub, they must have lots of options to choose from such as beer. FOOD -- Their menu is large with dishes such as pot pie, tacos, meatloaf, etc. I didn't want to spend a lot of money so I just ordered 2 beef tacos that came with tomatoes but I forgot to ask for it to come without cheese. So, I had to remove the shredded cheese from it. There was a lot of cheese on the tacos too. The tacos were fine - simple enough and the beef tasted just right. This pub is probably more known for their drinks but I may be wrong. Everyone on my table seemed to enjoy their dinner. I noticed someone ordered meatloaf, another for a chicken pot pie, another had a big plate of broccoli with something else (the broccoli looked tasty), and so on. SERVICE (5/5) -- our group was treated well. We were greeted upon walking in plus our server took our orders at a reasonable time. PARKING -- Not the best like most places in the area because it is street parking only but I was very lucky to find a street parking spot right in the front of the pub. You can probably park at the shopping district parking lot across the street where a gas station is located. Overall, although I wasn't expecting to even visit PJ McIntyre's Irish Pub on that cold January evening, it was a nice enough experience (mostly FUN because of the book club group rather than the food). The beef tacos that I ordered were fine and a fair price (around $6.50 total). I most likely won't be back since I don't drink alcohol and I hardly visit pubs or bars for dinner. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 11/250 total reviews in 2026 - 852 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 27 February 2026

The Harp... all I can say is WOW -- a hidden gem!…read more I've literally lived on the west side, right down the street, and never tried The Harp. Me and my babe were riding down Route 2 talking about wanting something good and different, and he was like, "You wanna try The Harp?" I said you know what... let's do it! We always thought it was super upscale -- whole time we were wrong... but in the BEST way. The vibe is nice, cozy, and welcoming, and the service? On point. Now let's get to the FOOD. Because baby... that's what we came for I was scrolling the menu and got hype seeing vegan options (you already know that warms my heart ). I kept eyeing the vegetarian boxty -- an Irish potato pancake -- something different. I was like hmm... maybe. Then I switched it up and said nah, I'm getting the fried green tomato wrap BUT WAIT. The waiter walked past with a plate that smelled SO good it literally stopped me mid-thought. I'm like hold on... what IS that?! She said, "That's the salmon boxty." Me and my babe looked at each other like... yeahhh we both thinking the same thing He ordered the steak boxty, and I got the vegetarian boxty. Listen... 10/10. MUST TRY AGAIN. Huge portions, flavorful, and DIFFERENT in the best way. That Irish potato pancake was loaded with sautéed mushrooms, zucchini, squash, spinach, onions, and carrots, all topped with a creamy spinach sauce. Not dry, not skimpy -- just straight up delicious. And the price? I definitely appreciated that too. The drink menu looked good -- I didn't indulge, but I did sip his "Clair Cooler" and babyyyy... nice, strong, and worth it Safe to say... we'll be back again and again

They have their own parking lot (on both sides of the restaurant) which is a big positive given their location. The interior was much larger then I expected, I can see it being good for large parties of people. My friend and I both opted for the crab cake sandwich (I switched out the chipotle aioli for the lemon one with no issue) and a side of fries. It was a very solid sandwich with very solid crab cakes. The service was attentive without being overbearing which I appreciated. Overall would recommend! I'd like to stop by and try more things.

I don't drink alcohol so I can't comment on their drinks but my friend ordered a glass of beer. LIVE MUSIC -- I arrived at the start of a weekend (Friday evening) and the pub was already packed with people. I could tell immediately that Gormley's is a hometown and west side favourite bar. The two member band that played were greet and they kept the atmosphere of the bar lively. Gormley's has an upstairs and downstairs so there is lots of space to sit or stand. At one point, I went upstairs and stood on the small balcony which was nice due to the slightly warm weather on that evening. If you are looking for a pub to hangout with friends, drink responsibly, and even watch some sports on TV, then Gormley's is the spot for you. **** GOAL of 250 reviews in 2026 - 41/250 total reviews in 2026 - 882 total Yelp reviews - Reviewed on 23 April 2026

The weather was taking a turn for the worse and we needed to take cover, and like a beacon the Flat Iron Cafe was the ideal location. Admittedly, it had been 15+ years since I had been there, I instantly felt at home and was comfortable the minute I sat down. The bar offers great beer on tap, including your Irish staples, plenty of seltzers if that's your thing and an incredible menu. I mean if for nothing else, come for the food. I had to get the perch, local perfectly fried with fresh cut fries, never a wrong choice. My husband went for the French dip and said it was succulent! Not to be repetitive but the menu is amazing! I cannot wait to come back for lunch (if you work in the area, bring 8 friends and they will send the shuttle to pick you up). I look forward to making the Flat Iron s part of my routine, you still get the Flats without all the noise and pomp!

We found parking down the street. Walked in. Sign said wait to be seated. So we did. Finally after a few minutes someone noticed us and asked what we wanted. To eat. OK we are not busy sit anywhere. Kinda of a weird welcome. We found a seat and waited for menus. Menu is extensive. Lots of good looking items. Decided on the meatloaf sliders and colossal onion rings. Took about 15 mins and they came out hot. They had onion straws and BBQ sauce on them. They are big. And I got 3 colossal onion rings. That was extra for $2. Could have used a bit more BBQ sauce but it was good! The onion rings are delicious. They come with a ranch horseradish type sauce. It was too much food and had to take some home. But honestly I'd get it again. Server was nice. We got the strawberry cider on tap, it was good. Bill was about $42 for the 2 of us. Good place. Not too big. They have a patio in front. Inside about 18 tables and the bar. TVs around. Good atmosphere. Steady business. We'd go back. Try something else.
